POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I have a passion to create stories, draw characters, design imaginary landscapes, write songs and compose music. I can honestly say DUP was the platform that helped me developed my skills as a writer through the years.
Mera & Sparrow
part i ]
the eyes, the lips
and the blond hair
alluring, inviting
to do something bad...
it was her role
she played it
so well
but guess
not so much
in real
[ part ii ]
it's not fair
to judge them
for their naivety
and remove
from their
creativity
let her be Mera
let him be Jack
let us enjoy them
just bring them back
because
Mera is a hero
and so is Sparrow
the eyes, the lips
and the blond hair
alluring, inviting
to do something bad...
it was her role
she played it
so well
but guess
not so much
in real
[ part ii ]
it's not fair
to judge them
for their naivety
and remove
from their
creativity
let her be Mera
let him be Jack
let us enjoy them
just bring them back
because
Mera is a hero
and so is Sparrow

On the edge...
a familiar bleakness
snuck inside to
haunts the feelings,
yet surprisingly pleasant
I missed the things
I didn’t cherish it anymore
my soul denied
what my heart desired
I hesitated, I struggled
the eulogy of the past
been in my pocket
long enough to memorize
but I couldn’t read it aloud
now,
the grave is covered in weed
the pyre soaked and wet
and I stood there
one foot to the light
one foot on the past
...

Puppets...
We've
evolved
into puppets
but the strings
grew longer
so that you
can't see
the fingers...

Father's Day

once I had
wished him
on a

Probably
would’ve
asked me
what
it was...

"NEWS - Truth Report"
propaganda feeding
the hunger of a
crying common man
leaving him blind to
what surrounds him
sucking his energy
letting him dry
"GOVERNMENT - A better tomorrow"
every nation, every land
every country thrived on
an idealism sugar coated
to make the simple-minded
worship that same idea
and kill for it...
the media lights fire
loaded with personal motives

Tears & Smiles
what's the worth of the truth,
when it tears you apart
what's the cost of a lie,
if it lifts your heavy heart
can you measure happiness with smiles?
can you measure sadness with tears?
some lie to adorn a songs
but the emotions are real
brought you to its devotion
let your brokenness heal
you bled your pain screaming your guts out
a relapsing soul addicted to afflatus
music is a drug, and the song is the vessel
voice...
