Until She Spoke
Until she spoke
I always admired her from afar
Smiled at her a few days and got one back
Loved the way her lack of make-up looked better than any other girl I’ve ever seen.
Until she spoke
I thought I knew what beauty was
Her smile that lights up your soul
Or how her hair sits perfectly
With a few stray strands here and there
Making her look even more comfortable
Until she spoke
I thought her size was the most adorable thing ever
Coupled with her unique sense of fashion
She became the apple of my eye
One day I built...
I always admired her from afar

Or how her hair sits perfectly
With a few stray strands here and there
Making her look even more comfortable

Coupled with her unique sense of fashion

Untitled Progression #2
To me she is like an apple in the garden of eden
The most delicious thing I've tasted in my life
But I was too greedy and I wanted all the other fruit
But once I tried the pear and peaches it was not as good
By that time I was kicked out the garden of Eden...
And I still long for the taste of that apple.
Thinking back I wonder if she is okay
Coz I took a bite out of it...
Not realizing when I left,
I left with a piece of her
The most delicious thing I've tasted in my life
But I was too greedy and I wanted all the other fruit
But once I tried the pear and peaches it was not as good
By that time I was kicked out the garden of Eden...
And I still long for the taste of that apple.
Thinking back I wonder if she is okay
Coz I took a bite out of it...
Not realizing when I left,
I left with a piece of her

Emotions Forecast
Today's weather forecast is:
30% chance of rain.
As the plane departed and left a long trail of smoke,
A long trail of fragmented memories
I couldn't tell which was more painful
The fact that the plane was going to fast for me to catch
Or the plane was moving to slow to forget...
50% chance of rain.
And as the distance grew rapidly between us
The time where I'd forget her draws nearer
As the plane disappeared from sight
All that remained was the trail of smoke
And the piercing sounds of the engine,
With her voice echoing off the walls...
30% chance of rain.

Your worries are mine, dear friend
This time, "I'm okay"
Was not going to cut it.
Cry and speak to me!
Was not going to cut it.
Cry and speak to me!

Who is more in pain?
His screams are cancelled out by the roaring thunder.
Who is more in pain?
His tears were washed away by the never ending rain.
Who is more in pain?
His wavering soul was straightened through the gusty winds.
Who is more in pain?
His red eyes were less painful than the pitch black sky filled with soot.
Who is more in pain?
She slits her wrists to ease the pain yet we lacerate this earth to feed our greed.
Who is more in pain?
While all ya’ll complain and fight about cutting your hair
this earth cannot do anything while we cut down her beautiful...

Undertakers Eulogy
Mom, Dad, Aunties and uncles.
Cousins, brothers ,sisters and colleagues.
One by one as they enter this hall filled with pictures of you
And freshly laid tears,
They have come to say goodbye
To their beloved one.
Thereafter to be laid to rest within this earth,
Which will hold you dear.
With a concrete stone as your address
So ALL these people can still come see you,
With memories and flowers
As if you’ve never left.
BUT
The mind and heart don’t see eye to eye..
For that is what my heart saw.

I'm lost
I'm lost
Yet I have not lost myself
I have only lost me
Who am I?
I am now known as the one who is lost but Ive have been found
I was lost
I found myself within her.
I'm lost within the walls of her soul
And the depths of her mind
Her love anchoring me down
Down in the oceans of love that I have yet to dive in
All Through her deep blue eyes.
Pulled away by the current
I lost her
I'm lost
I'm lost yet again
Lost in the battlefield of heartbreak
Fighting back the tears
But also fighting...
Yet I have not lost myself
I have only lost me
Who am I?
I am now known as the one who is lost but Ive have been found
I was lost
I found myself within her.
I'm lost within the walls of her soul
And the depths of her mind
Her love anchoring me down
Down in the oceans of love that I have yet to dive in
All Through her deep blue eyes.
Pulled away by the current
I lost her
I'm lost
I'm lost yet again
Lost in the battlefield of heartbreak
Fighting back the tears

Unheard Progressions... 'Cry'
Me telling you that your eyes are as beautiful as the night time sky would be a lie...
Your eyes ,to me, are as beautiful as a rainy day sky
They gloss like they're about to cry out in pain
But shine bright like the world is happy.
And your eyes are cloudy like your hiding how you really feel to everyone
But I see your pain
You can't lie to me
They say that your eyes are the windows to your soul,
But your soul is hiding behind that cloud you're using to conceal it
I wanna remove that cloud so I can catch a glimpse of something more
I wanna take a peek...

Demons Paradise (Work done for competition "Haiku's of Hell")
Demons paradise
Vast lands filled of doomed human souls
Sounds of painful screams
Demons feed on souls
Fangs dig into sinned mortals
And paints blood stained walls
Red, colour of love
Consumes the burning abyss
Satan has returned
Silence throughout hell.
Of beasts and demons alike
Heads bow for the King
Music to his ears
He sips bubbling blood champagne
of God's loved angels'
Upon thrones of bones
He leads corrupted mortals
To Eternal Pain
Vast lands filled of doomed human souls
Sounds of painful screams
Demons feed on souls
Fangs dig into sinned mortals
And paints blood stained walls
Red, colour of love
Consumes the burning abyss
Satan has returned
Silence throughout hell.
Of beasts and demons alike
Heads bow for the King
Music to his ears
He sips bubbling blood champagne
of God's loved angels'
Upon thrones of bones
He leads corrupted mortals
To Eternal Pain

Observations of a 'That Guy'
You thought only girls go through the pain of love?
Hahaha.
Open your eyes
While you're complaining about him who won't give you the time of day,
There's that one guy wanting to make you his everything.
While you're crying coz he hurt you,
There's that guy who wants you to cry laughing at his jokes.
While you're angry coz he cheated on you,
There's that guy who would never even think about it.
While you're suffering with a broken heart,
There's that guy who wants to drown you in love.
Where is 'That guy' you ask?
He was...
Hahaha.

She Asked
She asked me why I’m so quiet
So I said "I’m lost within my pure imagination”
She asked me why I’m so weird
So I said “I just want to be me”
She asked me why I’m so dark
So I said “I’m not afraid to play outside”
She asked me what is my favourite thing to do
So I said “poetry”
She asked me why I’m so ‘deep’
So I said “I swam within the rough waves of love, and that’s deeper than the ocean”
She asked me why I’m so strong
So I said “I’m not”
Astonished she asked why
