The Karaoke Book’s First Page
Last Thursday, me and Terence were hanging out in his place, singing, chilling out for a bit, smoking cigarettes and drinking Tequila Rose. Suddenly, Terence asked me if I wanted to sing. I wanted to ‘coz I was starting to fee buzzed and I thought, hell, no one can hear us singing anyway.
So, as usual, I set up the Magic Sing and started choosing songs. My night’s favorite is “Shower me with Your Love” by Surface, and it felt like having my own concert (I was buzzed so I can imagine what I can imagine), and though I’m buzzed, I’m pretty sure I’m not off key and I sang the song beautifully because I was drawing emotions from somewhere.
Then the rounds went on, and it was my turn again. Funny ‘coz I usually find songs in the middle, but at that time, I chose to look at the first page. All the songs in that page were unfamiliar, except for one: Heart’s “Alone”. And then it occurred to me, no matter how many people show their support or assure their friendship to me, I still feel alone. Not even my family satisfies that loneliness. I’m happy at work, but in life, why did I choose to be alone anyway?
And the emotional snowball started rolling again…
