I stare at the lips Belonging to strangers on the train None of them draw me in The way that yours do

Your presence falls on me Like heavy rain On the dry terrain After months of drought Causing a mass blooming of colourful emotions I never thought I would feel again

Your presence falls on me Like heavy rain On the dry terrain After months of drought Causing a mass blooming of colourful emotions I never thought I would feel again

She possessed a contagious smile And peace that the world couldn't comprehend A pretty collection of sunglasses And generosity which never ends She touches souls Allows us to begin again

Your love is like an ocean It never ends From the surface, it dazzles It is wide, but calm It reflects light and warmth A frightening and exciting adventure Which is ever-changing Ever-constant It is deep, filled with so many mysteries Yet left for me to discover It is eternal, from the day the world began to the day it ends Just like the ebb and flow Of the waves So let your waters inspire me, envelop me Let me swim deeper into the depths And learn to find your secret places And on the day I have to leave this world Let me drown, content and at peace In the wonders of your incredible love

Today the Singaporean sun shines Down, to the commuters at the bus stop Each with unique human storylines It casts their shadows long, past coffee shops Through, the window panes of old high-rise flats And trees: branches, flowers, leaves. Shades shifting Freely, on abandoned park benches and alley cats Comfortably, filling forms consistently prancing Beautifully, as it turns the sky pink And the urban landscape is coated in gold Simply, more so, than one would think From the days of our youth, to the time we grow old

Sweet child of mine You break my heart with every word you say I fall through your careless lines Deeper into a void, every single day Dragging me down, every single time Continuing in your selfish ways Refusing to acknowledge that we are not 'fine' I never thought you'd do this to me Leave me in devastation as you walk away O, sweet child of mine

Sweet Child of Mine

Sweet child of mine You break my heart with every word you say I fall through your careless lines Deeper into a void, every single day Dragging me down, every single time Continuing in your selfish ways Refusing to acknowledge that we are not 'fine' I never thought you'd do this to me Leave me in devastation as you walk away O, sweet child of mine

Once I met a girl named heaven Who contained the saddest words in her pen And the secrets of the world written in the lines of her hands She saw the world through her own bambi eyes as if the world were something to wonder about She searched for a beacon of truth and life And felt the compulsion to sort it all out She sat in corners and observed Hoping to blend into the dull walls But her sweet disposition transcended the patterns And made itself known to all I'll never forget those eyes The notebook of secrets, or that smile Whenever she leaves, she leaves an impression Which would linger in my heart for awhile

The night started with anticipation Nineteen stops away from the regular train station The world moved by, as I listened to poetry And five stops away, you waited for me You held my hand and we ran away from the terribly monotonous day To a magic ghost-town where strangers danced all night And laughed through the empty streets, under the pale moonlight We walked And you asked me if I was okay I wanted nothing more than to stay

Magic Ghost-Town

The night started with anticipation Nineteen stops away from the regular train station The world moved by, as I listened to poetry And five stops away, you waited for me You held my hand and we ran away from the terribly monotonous day To a magic ghost-town where strangers danced all night And laughed through the empty streets, under the pale moonlight We walked And you asked me if I was okay I wanted nothing more than to stay

The harsh light condemns in this dark room The moment I fled, a moment too soon I want you so bad We're waiting for noon To reveal what was hidden Under the light of the moon

Right from the start you've been doubted Something's amiss Some things don't align Like a thousand falling stars becoming warning signs Terrible and beautiful at the same time All around you the world is breaking Forming cracks from selfish demands We all watched amazed, and wonder How a human could survive Being struck by thunder You boldly declare, 'My heart's still beating!' And I shamefully thought to myself, 'Lies. Lies. Lies...' But when you held me in your arms, I could almost feel it The warmth of your chest and a beat... Move on. Move on. Stay strong. Stay strong.

Falling Stars

Right from the start you've been doubted Something's amiss Some things don't align Like a thousand falling stars becoming warning signs Terrible and beautiful at the same time All around you the world is breaking Forming cracks from selfish demands We all watched amazed, and wonder How a human could survive Being struck by thunder You boldly declare, 'My heart's still beating!' And I shamefully thought to myself, 'Lies. Lies. Lies...' But when you held me in your arms, I could almost feel it The warmth of your chest and a beat... Move on. Move on. Stay strong. Stay strong.
