25/F/Kuala Lumpur An aesthete
Then I realized there is so much love within me that when I pour some to others I still have plenty left. It never runs out nor it will dry. Then I realized often times I love others while hoping I’d get some in return although I hardly get any. Then I realized I have so much love in me that I see others in the light of love then I realized that I have been seeing my reflection in the form of them – whom I give my love to.

Then I Realized
Of a round-shaped chocolate cake, Of unlit candles of which the numbers has increased by one since the last time Of empty chairs Of balloons hanging on the wall Of colorful hats neatly arranged on the table cloth Of empty porcelain saucers Like many years before The boy sits there in silence On an old wooden chair adjacent to the round table No surprise nor gift Nor people nor appetite Like many years before He acts like the cool Han Solo Minus his 200 years old Chewbacca ‘Cause he only has his little antic toy car No matter how luxurious it may seem The cake, candles, confetti, balloons and all The missing essence of people And happiness and serenity Could not make it up for him He is a birthday boy who is not cherished or cheered on He is a birthday boy with no joy Like many years before He finger crosses for the next year to be better

The Birthday Boy
I need to remember me. I need to remember myself and all the good sweet memories that help me pick myself up and all the bitter-sweat experiences that help me build myself that help me find myself when often time I am lost. I need to remember me and remember to live.

Remember Me
I am no millionaire Nor the type to care Like everyone else I brush my teeth and comb my hair While staring at my figure in the mirror I claim myself a winner. I am no millionaire But I wish I am I act like one and think like one One with a millionaire’s thoughts and ways of thinking One with a millionaire’s best attitude Should the former come along with the latter Then you make yourself a millionaire What is the point of becoming a millionaire in wealth When you are just poor at self-conduct and mindset Manner maketh man That is what I tell myself everyday That is how I become who I am today Cause I am no millionaire nor the type to care Because I am a winner with a millionaire demeanour.

I am a millionaire
Every day is a brand-new day Every day I am getting further away from yesterday I am getting further away from the people whom I had my last conversation with from things I fond of from time I had wasted. Every day is a brand-new day I left my prints that rather then become a part of someone’s memories I loved enough and I gave love enough Things and people shall pass, so do time I lived in the past with different songs were tuned to then I live in the present moment with brand new jams to listen to. Every day is a brand-new day. Yesterday’s just a part of someone’s memories. To be remembered and at the same time forgotten.
