POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
The journey must go on.
You're halfway there.
The journey must go on.
I masked it well from him while I did. And from there on, I sealed a closure together with my warmest blessing to the continuation of his journey on woo-ing another woman's heart. My task of liking him is complete tonight, and thus this is where our platonic friendship starts.
I finally understood the reason his feeling was absent towards me, because he is simply blinded by the name of love. And it is a process that I cannot possibly interrupt no matter how I would want to attempt it, because I finally understood tonight,...

Faultless night.
the night is young and wasted
Old is the air we breathe in
we are here by the scale of our pride
around constant 'game over' reminder
but have u heard
time waits for no man?
have you heard
that change is the only constant remain?
and words that we ill-whisper
is in the air we breathe into our lungs...
the night is young and moonless
but look at what we have on an empty plate
dotted lights that connect the moonless sky
and dance like glowing pearls
have we forgotten
how we come this far
to see such faultless sight tonight?

at her doorstep.
Your moon in scorpio senses something, but for some reason you can't penetrate beyond the surface to see what lies within. Me. I can always tell you that nothing is wrong, but I know you won't be convinced that easily. How can I? If things that I'm about to tell you will change the course of our friendship? I know you won't do anything about it, because you're waiting for someone else at her doorstep... so just, spare me for this lifetime, don't ask me that again unless you're asking me to be yours.

Point less taken.
I'm worth it.
You're not the only one.
I can be more than what you see.
First impression counts.
I liked writing.
This is a corporate world, not an institution sponsoring your academic essays.
Hire me!
So does other thousands of fresh grads says.
I'm giving up.
Like we care.
You vile little...
Go ahead, spit the attitude.
Watch me...
One of these days, I'm going to prove that Robert Frost is on my side.
Robert who?
You're not the only one.

Restless bird
Birds of a feather flock together
But I have none flying on my radar
This restless bird is discontented, flustered
Feeling like a gem undiscovered
Should I seek wings of my own
Or let her feathers ruffled elsewhere
This restless bird,
Can’t wait to take off her virgin flight
As she flexes her muscle wings
And dances forward her hippy swing
Restless bird finds herself in his radar
Birds don’t flock together in same feather, he said
Birds like you don't have to...
Bang!
But I have none flying on my radar
This restless bird is discontented, flustered
Feeling like a gem undiscovered
Should I seek wings of my own
Or let her feathers ruffled elsewhere
This restless bird,
Can’t wait to take off her virgin flight
As she flexes her muscle wings
And dances forward her hippy swing
Restless bird finds herself in his radar
Birds don’t flock together in same feather, he said
Birds like you don't have to...
Bang!

Puffer fish.
My pride is a puffer fish;
I have spikes accounted for my naked ignorance,
and a big puff of self-conceited beliefs.
But when the liver is removed,
under the knife of a master chef,
my mere existence ended as a Fugu dish;
best served cold with a dip.

and a big puff of self-conceited beliefs.
But when the liver is removed,

my mere existence ended as a Fugu dish;

Our future.
withered flowers of autumn
dying trees in the winter
I see our future
destined to us one
I see hollow ground below
swallow me up in pride
I see distance...
dragging you a far
don't you see?
of what this familiarity is?
our future is a void
destined to us one.
dying trees in the winter
I see our future
destined to us one
I see hollow ground below
swallow me up in pride
I see distance...
dragging you a far
don't you see?
of what this familiarity is?
our future is a void
destined to us one.
