We talk about breakfast We talk about lunch We talk about dinner Sometimes "¿como estás?" Or "buongiorno" "obrigado" Even "aisiteru" We fight with each other even when we speak the same language We don't understand each other even when we share the same culture backgrounds We hurt each other even when we live under the same roof But most of the time, We help each other even if we don't know the one who is in need We offer comfort to each other even if the one who is suffering is not from our family We hold hands with each other even if there is a war going on between our countries Let's just forget about the differences we hold from each other Let's learn to embrace the diversities we have against each other Let's just make peace possible in this falling-apart world

Irrelevant to poetry
After midnight, after I'm fed up with your lie I pack up all my stuff and leave you behind The bound between us that used to be tight Now has become so heavy That it sinks to somewhere I cannot find And you keep on pretending everything is fine Keep on blowing your pipe But I am tired of all this disguise Because Deep down I know this gap has gone too wide I have to give up reaching for the other side Now, after midnight, You get down on your knees and cry Begging me not to resign From being your wife I say: Sorry, but I gotta fix up my mind.

After Midnight
love is red love is passion not seeing blood love is orange love is warmth not tasting sour love is yellow love is brightness nothing to do with gold love is green love is nature not longing for the advantage that you never own love is blue love is tranquility not the sobbing sadness love is purple love is the delicacy in your performing humanity not the superficial nobility you hold onto so tight only to shame nobody

Rainbow Is about LOVE
You bought an one way ticket when you were young You thought it'd be a good trip You thought you'd never be homesick Everything out there is fresh Everything out there is sparkling Even the moon looks bigger All is fine Until one day You find the food back home was made for your stomach the water back home tasted sweeter the air back home suited your lung perfectly And you starts to realize the moon back home were actually brighter So you buy an one way ticket again to come home

One Way Ticket
Are you surprised? When you see a man holding another man's hand Or when you witness a girl kissing another girl Or when you go to a hospital where they hire female doctors and male nurses Or a woman holds a position higher than yours in the corporation where you work for thirty more years Or when a black female police officer is arresting a white man Or...etc.. If yes, then sir, please take another ride on your time machine back to the stone age.

Are you surprised?
When we hold hands I feel the warmth dwelled in your palm So I become warm too I feel your pulse from your beating vein So my heart starts to pump Thus my blood begin to run Do no drop my hand Do I have to beg If I want to be alive?

When We Hold Hands
Time is ticking Deadline is closing in My brain is burning My fingers are busy typing The monitor starts to ***** My eyes sore stomach aching wrist throbbing Yet I haven't reached the required word count

Stress
It's wet and cold But the world is run on gold So you'd betta get out of the door And work your *** off And at the end of the day You'd be disappointed at your pay What you get isn't what you expect Plain dough is all that you collect "It's not even enough for dope!" You take it up with your boss "Listen, kid. You gotta be patient. I guarantee one day you'll own gold, maybe when you get to this old like me. But not now, kid, not now." That's what he told.

It's Wet and Cold
The lonely wind from the north Gets bored of the monotonous whiteness When Winter comes So it decides to go on a trip Searching for companionship While it travels It encounters the bird with long legs Who usually carries people to the west To pursue perpetual happiness "Take me to your nirvana."the wind says And the bird replies "But the real paradise is in the south During this season! Come with me, I'll take you there!" So together they go south

The Lonely North Wind
We had a fight this morning But couldn't made up immediately Then we were off to work We met on the pitch as rivals Still upset with each other Shoving around Swearing at each other Like rivals usually do on the pitch At some point we're so near to Beat each other up When he grabbed my **** to provoke me That really got on my nerves That I raised my fist at him "Yeah, go ahead punch me in the face now! Or I'm gonna kiss you on the lips!" I saw he stared right into my soul My fist stopped in the air He did kiss me The whole stadium went mad And I didn't know what matters anymore Yes, you can guess. We are footballers and rivals on the pitch Lovers in bed in the dead of night
