Here I am...

Yes... resurfacing on the surface again...
It's has been a uber long time since I blogged...
I got myself somewhere new and gone are the archives...

So here I am... experiencing a crash
& seeking refuge in the comfort of my bed...
lying here letting all feelings, thoughts & memories engulf me
helping me get up on my feet with a clearer mind...
it's just a matter of time...
or is it different this time round?

nevertheless, I am contented to be
in the haven of my bed...
