reflections of bygone....

you wonder looking into the mirror...
as if you watch them born...
as if they never happened but still they are
reflections of bygone...

you always want to be a forerunner...
and catch the rays of joy at the first dawn...
but something whispers to you...your hands are still full with
reflections of bygone...

i ask myself, my existence...
is it just a myth or a hope forlorn...
will i ever be able to stir away from those
reflections of bygone...

but i start to hear it bubbling...my happiness...
held in this emotional cauldron...
i need to let it spill and burn in the fire...to let go of them
reflections of bygone...

and slowly, the angst, the pain...
i had kept within me since long...
loosen their grip and i see them melting away in tears as...
reflections of bygone

do you want to grow young??...:)

yeah..that title could be a good example of an o(se)xymoron or totally a title by a sexy moron (that's me...:))! take your pick!
I just finished watching this movie and thoroughly enjoyed every bit of it - "The curious case of Benjamin Button". Found it thought provoking and inspiring...a must watch!...putting down some of my favorite quotes from the movie here...

Benjamin Button: My name is Benjamin Button, and I was born under unusual circumstances. While everyone else was agin', I was gettin' younger... all alone.

Benjamin Button: I was thinking how nothing lasts, and what a shame that is.
Daisy: Some things last.

Benjamin Button: Along the way you bump into people who make a dent on your life. Some people get struck by lightning. Some are born to sit by a river. Some have an ear for music. Some are artists. Some swim the English Channel. Some know buttons. Some know Shakespeare. Some are mothers. And some people can dance.

Benjamin Button: Your life is defined by its opportunities... even the ones you miss.

Benjamin Button: It's a funny thing about comin' home. Looks the same, smells the same, feels the same. You'll realize what's changed is you.

Benjamin Button: I wanna remember us just as we are now.

Benjamin Button: Sometimes we're on a collision course, and we just don't know it. Whether it's by accident or by design, there's not a thing we can do about it.

Benjamin Button: [Voice over; letter to his daughter] For what it's worth: it's never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There's no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you're proud of. If you find that you're not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.

Mrs. Maple: Benjamin, we're meant to lose the people we love. How else would we know how important they are to us?

Captain Mike: You can be as mad as a mad dog at the way things went. You could swear, curse the fates, but when it comes to the end, you have to let go.

Benjamin Button: Our lives are defined by opportunities, even the ones we miss.

Mr. Daws: Blinded in one eye; can't hardly hear. I get twitches and shakes out of nowhere; always losing my line of thought. But you know what? God keeps reminding me I'm lucky to be alive.

Daisy: I promise you, I'll never lose myself to self-pity again.
Benjamin Button: [while the day begins] And I think, right there and then, she realized none of us is perfect forever.

Daisy: We all end up in diapers.

....there are some more...but at this time my mind is floating through so many thoughts...and emotions...:)...happy ones...not so sad ones...:)... yep this movie has made me think...~~ am still thinking and writing in my thoughts, will publish it soon...:)

....till then,good night Benjamin.....
