Poet Introduction
I wanted to find a better outlet on how i can express myself. So I started writing. Most of the poem that i wrote are about feelings that i have felt and experience in a certain period of time.

Rooftop conversations
Under the moonlit sky
the air punctuates the night.
On a tiny corner of the roof we set our stage.
The stars as our audience,
As dialogues pass through our lives
the deeper our soul dives.
Quarter of a million lives walking around us,
but aren't you just a sight for sore eyes.
Thousands of cars that drive by
I seem to float with you on the same sky.
With all these soaring planes up above,
It goes with how high someones reaches when in love.
Right here is what we own,
Our time we spent until the dawn.
Five storey...

Estrange
Will i allow myself to falter while everything
is set free at this moment.
To pursue joy that caught me by surprise.
But I don’t have courage.
I will sit still. And one day. I will grow tired. Restless.
And will regret that this chance will never return.
And up there in the sky.
I'll keep on grabbing a memory where
you are no longer available.
We'll be nothing more than beautiful strangers,
Who passed by the other,
Who bumped the crowd away
Then skipped all the feelings of sway.
Well be nothing more than an outsider ...
is set free at this moment.
To pursue joy that caught me by surprise.
But I don’t have courage.
I will sit still. And one day. I will grow tired. Restless.
And will regret that this chance will never return.
And up there in the sky.
I'll keep on grabbing a memory where
you are no longer available.
We'll be nothing more than beautiful strangers,
Who passed by the other,
Who bumped the crowd away
Then skipped all the feelings of sway.
Well be nothing more than an outsider ...

About last night
A 10 mile ride in a restless city,
An hour of distance of you and me maybe.
Regardless of how long it took,
It's all worth it with just one look.
As I found a warm embrace,
That let's me feel through my surface.
Longing by then begone,
For myself is beside the one.
In every second that I have with you,
My weary soul uplifts itself.
In every instance that I can do no more,
I'd still fight till nothings left.
An hour of distance of you and me maybe.
Regardless of how long it took,
It's all worth it with just one look.
As I found a warm embrace,
That let's me feel through my surface.
Longing by then begone,
For myself is beside the one.
In every second that I have with you,
My weary soul uplifts itself.
In every instance that I can do no more,
I'd still fight till nothings left.

Frightened Heart
He was constantly searching,
begging ad asking
for his meaning
somewhere, he knew
he was still lost
driving his life into the unknown
bewildering adventures at best.
However even at best
trying was exhausting.
So maybe
just by trying,
jumping next to her
was too damn frightening
He was too afraid
That him being a part of her
will cause a bigger confusion
that will end up hurting
not only him
but also her.
So he did not stop
from stepping.
A feet or two,
away
away from her heart.

Rest among the chaos
i just want to get lost
for a certain amount of time.
lost in my own cosmos,
in the depth of my own thoughts.
where no one can bother me
where i can find silence
or peace even.
go through a slumber
rest from chaos
escape from all the uproar
to close my eyes shut
and elude all the turmoil
to find solitude
and find meaning
then I'll come out
worthy to live in a beautiful
state of peace
for a certain amount of time.
lost in my own cosmos,
in the depth of my own thoughts.
where no one can bother me
where i can find silence
or peace even.
go through a slumber
rest from chaos
escape from all the uproar
to close my eyes shut
and elude all the turmoil
to find solitude
and find meaning
then I'll come out
worthy to live in a beautiful

Fantasy
Tonight you'll be the sight in my dreams
like the one Wendy looks forward to
a star to the right
a place to fly
to discover and retain
that innocent self
To get lost in confusion
and get wiser without losing affection
let me take a peek
of Peter Pan's paradise
Come, be the guest of my slumber
And i do hope you'll be staying over
like the one Wendy looks forward to
a star to the right
a place to fly
to discover and retain
that innocent self
To get lost in confusion
and get wiser without losing affection
let me take a peek
of Peter Pan's paradise
Come, be the guest of my slumber
And i do hope you'll be staying over

You
Part of this Earth is to create pieces of yourself bit by bit.
In years, days, hours, minutes, and even in moments.
Certain pieces are placed beyond your comfort zone.
You are to find them.
That is why no matter what,
unconsciously we are bound to follow our feet.
not to explore certain places,
but to complete the missing parts of ourselves.
In the moment we surfaced and breathe the air of this world,
that was the beginning to complete.
Complete the puzzle of yourself.
In years, days, hours, minutes, and even in moments.
Certain pieces are placed beyond your comfort zone.
You are to find them.
That is why no matter what,
unconsciously we are bound to follow our feet.
not to explore certain places,
but to complete the missing parts of ourselves.
In the moment we surfaced and breathe the air of this world,
that was the beginning to complete.
Complete the puzzle of yourself.

Then I met you
Low-key days,
So simple yet perfect, being part of the norm.
Never had any peculiarities in the past
However.
It happened.
There they were,
All of them,
It was sudden
Premature heart beats.
Constricting bloodstreams
Hyperventilating lungs.
Untimely daydreams.
Floating thoughts
Wandering eyes.
The feeling of living and dying,
Feeling of happiness and longing both at the same time.
It all started with one meeting with you.
So simple yet perfect, being part of the norm.
Never had any peculiarities in the past
However.
It happened.
There they were,
All of them,
It was sudden
Premature heart beats.
Constricting bloodstreams
Hyperventilating lungs.
Untimely daydreams.
Floating thoughts
Wandering eyes.
The feeling of living and dying,
Feeling of happiness and longing both at the same time.
It all started with one meeting with you.

To my future Lover
Never forget to love yourself no matter how many time you may fall in love with me.
Prioritize loving yourself indefinitely. I'll be just fine with you loving yourself fully and you loving me a bit, rather than you loving me fully and treating yourself less.

Then came you
A girl living in the 21st century,
An old soul whose dreams are immeasurable,
A person with a good heart.
A blossoming flower in this massive jungle of a city.
A woman who has her own ways
Paths that are rough and undiscovered.
Who would've thought that at 5 ft and 2 inches tall
you'd get to make my heart skip beats like when a frog leaps.
You're unconventional thoughts just drives me nuts.
Amidst the false pretenses of this era,
You stay true with yourself,
You get to smile with no remorse
And i get to see that every single day
An old soul whose dreams are immeasurable,
A person with a good heart.
A blossoming flower in this massive jungle of a city.
A woman who has her own ways
Paths that are rough and undiscovered.
Who would've thought that at 5 ft and 2 inches tall
you'd get to make my heart skip beats like when a frog leaps.
You're unconventional thoughts just drives me nuts.
Amidst the false pretenses of this era,
You stay true with yourself,
You get to smile with no remorse
And i get to see that every single day

8 Dollar dates with you
It doesn't matter
It doesn't matter where we dine
It doesn't matter where we are
It doesn't matter if we get lost
It doesn't matter if rains
It doesn't matter how long the ride is.
As long as i share my meal with you
as long as i share the scene with you
As long as I'm holding your hand
As long as you're presence keeps me warm
As long as you're right beside me
All my fears doesn't matter
as long as you're here with me.
It doesn't matter where we dine
It doesn't matter where we are
It doesn't matter if we get lost
It doesn't matter if rains
It doesn't matter how long the ride is.
As long as i share my meal with you
as long as i share the scene with you
As long as I'm holding your hand
As long as you're presence keeps me warm
As long as you're right beside me
All my fears doesn't matter
as long as you're here with me.

Request
Heavens, can you let me live up that day
Where all of me cries for her to stay.
May I have a couple more of hours,
To make this time feel like ours.
Can I have a few more minutes
Where we can savor this place we used
to meet.
And could I afford a split second,
So I can steal a few more instance of our
bond.
Where all of me cries for her to stay.
May I have a couple more of hours,
To make this time feel like ours.
Can I have a few more minutes
Where we can savor this place we used
to meet.
And could I afford a split second,
So I can steal a few more instance of our
bond.
