faces

Who are you today?
The jester or the jerk?

Life's like a movie
Keep acting, keep pretending

prayer

Do you pray for health or wealth?
Or do you pray for wealth to treat your health?
Or health to enjoy your wealth?

Will your prayers be answered?
Or will you just find comfort?

jukebox

Life is like a jukebox
Spinning a memory of tunes
Humming a repertoire of emotions

The never forgotten sad love song
The theme song that kick-starts your day
The classic that replays like a broken record

I was the hit song
Shelved in an old record
Faded into memories...

don't sail away

The sun is about to set.
There is not much time left.

I wish I can stop you.
Stop you from leaving me.

Stay with me till dawn.
Don't sail away.

what life has in store?

Tranquility under the hot sun?


A smooth journey ahead?


Freedom of speech?


Mountains of hopes?


Or a playground of emptiness?

one last dance

Will you dance with me
For this one last time

Let me feel your breath
Your body against my breast

Relight the fire
And ease my desire

Make my heart race
As the music paces

Plant me the kiss
I'm so gonna miss

Let's dance till day breaks
Before my heart breaks

Dance with me
One last time

One last time
Just one last time

celebration

Life is celebrated.


Over and over.


But I've forgotten, what I'm competing for.

070707

many have decided today is the day.


many are still searching, trying or have long given up.

time

My heartbeat races as the clock ticks.
Is time running out or am I slowing down?

will you?

Every corner, every turn,


you smell familiarity,


you hear a little voice,


whispering for your return, pleading you to stay.


Will you leave your past behind, and move on with life?


Will you take this precious chance,


to light up the path ahead?

Will you?
Will you?

for her

A hopeless romantic.
A sucker for sweet nothings.


You hunger for love,
like a kid for sweets.
You yearn to be touched,
like a deserted kitten.


You want to believe in love,
but you're too afraid.
Afraid of crying,
afraid of him lying.


You want to dream on,
and never took the chance.
You want to fantasize,
and never get to dance.


Till death do us part,
could it be just an empty promise?
For if happily ever after truly exists,
it wouldn't be called a fairy tale.


But no matter what,
there's always hope.
Only if you keep your heart open.
and not your eyes shut.

slient night

Can you hear the piercing silence of the night?
Or the beating of your racing heart?

Do you fear the loneliness of the dark?
Or the madness of your replayed thoughts?

Have you cried yourself to sleep?
And use those tears to wash away your fears?

You pray that the night will be over.
But tomorrow is out of sight.

With the light in your hand,
you know you'll find your way out.

But you're jaded.
Too weak to move on.

sunset

Amie hates the sunset although she has not seen it for the longest time. Traumatically beautiful. It is like the last supper. Sumptuous yet unappetizing. She has almost forgotten the smell of fresh air. Her hair, her clothes, her sheets, they all are stained with the stench of medicine. Counting down the days she has left to battle with life. She fears. And she does not want to live in fear anymore...

~the end~

drowning

You can hardly see.
You can't move or think.
Like a helpless kitten,
thrown into the the vast ocean,
struggling to survive.

There's tears,
or is it just water?
You have no idea.
Maybe it doesn't matter anymore.

There's nothing to hold on to.
And you're not fighting for the last breath.
Your heart is weak.
And you wish you were dead.
But you're just drowning.
Deeper and deeper.
Into the world of the unknown.

exit

Do you have a secret hiding place?
Where you seek solace and walk out of reality.
A quest for contentment,
leaving your worries and the familiarity behind.
Strangely, you never felt better.
Sneaking out...

stairway to hell

You keep falling.
Falling.
Falling.
And falling.
You'll keep falling,
until you stand up.

the end

Everything has its peak.


And everything has an end.

uncertainty

Beyond everything beautiful lies uncertainty.
It could be a streak of danger.
It could be a glimpse of hope.
Don't give up on yourself. Never.

fallen angel

Look up and you see a barren tree.
Look down and you see wilted leaves.

You might have fallen.
You might have been hurt.

But what's beyond the labyrinth
is the unlimited sky.

can you see your future?

The sun has set but it'll rise again.
What bright future that lies ahead,
is still buried in the foggy night.

You want to manipulate reality.
You want to control your destiny.

But your brain stops,
when your eyes are shut.
