The signal is subtle
We pass just close enough to touch
No questions, no answers
We know by now to say enough
With only simple words
With only subtle turns
The things we feel alone for one another
There is a secret that we keep
I won't sleep if you won't sleep
Because tonight may be the last chance we'll be given
We are compelled to do what we must do
We are compelled to do what we have been forbidden
So I won't sleep if you won't sleep tonight

meaning.
the past few days were tiring, but worth it.
i feel as though i've been driving non-stop, chauffeuring the boy here and there. he went through lasik surgery yesterday (monday) and apparently, his eyes are extremely sensitive, so he has adverse reactions to the procedure.
his eyes are a red, blotchy, blood-shot mess, and they are so sensitive to light, he even wears his shades indoors during the day. sigh. it was heart-breaking to see him literally blind the past 2 days, that i had to hold his hand and guide him wherever we walked. i even had to feed him dinner in bed, while nursing his migraine and fever.
i couldn't believe he is one of the few who have reacted so badly to lasik - the rest of the patients seemed fine walking out of surgery! i have to drive him again for another review on thursday morning and hopefully the doctor will have better news. *crosses fingers*
good news is that during the course of his "invalidity" and literally racing between home and him during late nights and wee hours of the morning, a pang i've never felt before, surged within me.
giving all my care to him made my feelings for him grow stronger, just when i thought i've reached my "limit". i had to hold off all "selfish feelings" and just focus on one other person, and in doing so, it's helped me attain a new level of self-sacrifice.
"just suck it up", i kept telling myself.
and laying down beside him, and stroking his forehead, made me not care, even if i died right there and then.
plus, getting a $129 pair of leather heels is a satisfying gesture of appreciation. :)
