A Place

It is common to see in dramas (mandarin or canto) that one person will ask the other this question: "Does your heart really have me?"

Okay, it couldn't sound more broken than this, but i wrote that because it is the direct translation and if u know any dialect u can reverse it and get the idea. A more appropriate translation is, "Do i really have a place in ur heart?"

Still sounds weird cause obviously his/her heart has blood vessels, heart chamber, a valve etc etc... okay i know i am crapping, it is a literal meaning that if one really cares about the other..

The name of the song is, 位置(wei zhi) which translate to "position" or more appropriate in this song "A Place", by a singer that u probably wud know only if u watch enough of taiwan shows in recent years. Not a diva but definitely have a lot of good songs, and this is one i came accross recently..

This is one of the kind of songs u wudn't fell for it immediately, rather after a few times and listening to the chorus part..

Again, it is the lyrics that makes me emo again... It jut makes me think..

Being in the gay community, it is common that we know each other as total strangers, if you are not each other cup of tea, you probably wouldn't even look twice at a person. So you hardly have any impact on the person and it is just a passer-by.

If you are his or her cup of tea (appearance).. u know at least u made it to his eyes, cause that's how it begins, by being right in each other's eyes..

Then we start to date each other.. if things goes well, and you keep thinking about this person.. A book u see at the newspaper stand reminds you of what he told you about the book he read recently. A car u see on the street reminds you of how he wish he doesn't have to take public transport cause he always couldn't get a seat. When you are queuing at McDonalds to buy your lunch, you remember the time you 2 had Carl's Junior and how the both of u love the fried zuchinni. Seeing a couple on the street reminds you of the time u took his hand and hold it tightly and didn't want to let it go cause you wants him to know how much he means to you.. Now he has a place in your mind, cause your thoughts are naturally link to him..

Only until someday, you realize you don't need him anymore, cause now, he is part of you, it is no longer a company, no longer a dependent, but rather, someone u instintively give everything you have, your love, your attention, your time, without having any doubt.. that, is when he has A Place in your heart...

Listening to the song makes me think that what does having a place in someone heart means? Whatever I have written above is solely my imagination, cause somehow, I don't suppose i have made it to anyone's heart before (in terms of lover) I probably have reach someone's mind, I know he probably might think of me once in a while.. but talk about when you truly feel so much for someone until you can give selflessly.. Maybe that's is when you truly love someone?

If you feel that you do have a place in someone's heart, and you feel the same for him, don't be stingy, tell him that you love him as much as you can.. sometimes people need assurance, don't let it stop halfway and end up in regret.. give all you can, to make him a place in your heart..
