A poet who rages along the waves of deception that lurks behind the pages of life
This arc shall take Two people in an untimely Loop of perpendicular proportions. The start is where everything Begins with distinct curiosity, And as between two people Intertwined with the fate of time. Through the onset of despair Lost and dazed by all the things You and I didn't say. Crafted with the belief That losing wars aren't the end Thought it's ought to be A new beginning; A new era. Left with the slightest desire Filled with hope and dreams: Matched from the beginning. A short lullaby we danced All through the night we burn, Bright as the sun, I see Holding us together; attached. We slowly burnt out, Light creeping out of the dark Losing it all to a new day. Went separate ways, Out to the horizons we walk; Probably the last time As seen by the unseen.

Losing
Of all the mountains so steep There are cavities so deep. Lurking in the darkness as we speak Are the horrors of souls weeping creeps. Revolting within the land drenched In blood and sweat, as the forlorn Forms of endeavor reaches the throat Of one's own life causing its death. In all the deep trenches lies The darkest secrets you'll ever find, The horrors, the screams; drowning all Hopes and dreams, pulling it deep within. Pitch black as death come and goes, Not knowing which way to go. Lost in the darkness trying to throw A lifeline for the helpless foes. The incarnate of death is upon us, The value of life is seen cheap in the canvass. Running pale, escaping from the sickle, Losing breath like a plant getting whittled. The kids now come and go, As they're drawn to the trenches below. The uncanny resemblance of faith Betrays us as it takes The unfortunate lives of those Innocent minds. It's a roadkill —

ROADKILL
The sky bleeds as it celebrates A glorious day that has ended. The taint of red and orange, Painting the pavements that was Supposed to be in a perfect shade of dark Stayed still as it was defeated by The gush of bloodshot rays of light. It covered the face of the earth As it envelopes and swallowed the World itself; it's mundane. The land is soiled with blood; The blood of servitude and dismay— A sublime face of reality. The tokens of war, decided based On what is true or whatever is Right.. Or what is left Behind as the smell of Sweat and dust lingers in the air. In pursuit.. To devour anything on the Way before it gets beaten by His own destruction.

*In Pursuit*
Cold was the night As I sit by the floor. Thinking of Love In every living soul. The floors were cracked The walls were faded And the ceiling was.. It was crumbling. The crippled night Of darkness and fog. The ember rays Shone by the ignited light. Is it the same with Love? Isn't love the sweetest Laughter of the one You cherish the most? Isn't it the girl You stare at discreetly Wishing to be A part of her very soul? Isn't love cruel? Cruel enough to Make you feel awful Make you feel betrayed Bewildered! Make you feel afraid And even make you Feel the worst feeling.. The feeling of being Left behind... ALONE. Is it me? Or is it her? Those moments Happiness... Sadness.. Success.. Confusion.. All that Spent with her. Were tossed aside CRUMPLED like a sheet of paper Drawn with a beautiful flower But discarded Because of one Simple FLAW. It weathered. Was it because Both of us grew cold Of each other? Like the polar Ice caps Melting Making several floating Ice bergs. I found it Nostalgic. But the view of A clear blue Sky A scenery I Can't, reluctantly, Ignore. No matter how cold Or hot the fiery city Filled with passion That I Myself thought Is worth taking the risk. Love? Since when Did I encountered Such word? It was probably, A long Time ago.

A Long Time Ago
Life is but a game. You win. You lose. You learn, and you choose. It doesn't matter When you are at A corner Trying to escape From reality. It is a churning Crest. A cluster of spec. A valued piece. A domino. A fragile tease Of what is to be known. Frail. A vortex of fear, But a fountain of A fruitful Lear. You are but A minor character There to make a scene. To see whose in vain And whose insane. The volouptious Captious minds of One's own thoughts. Triangulating in The midst of the sea. Because, Life is violent As it is bitter sweet.

Game..
We’re both great minds. Clashing, struggling on Ideas and lies. Foul cold eyes on the same loud cries. Distant. Like a floating cloud moving and swaying Up above. ...Jotting lines Like an ant seeking rations of food. But no-- We seek knowledge of sorts. A dire need of attention. A crippling greed for education. Searching reconciliation facing the vast horizon. A challenge.. "Feed me truth, And I shall eat it. Serve me lies, And I shall disprove it." .... Silence. All we hear are the shouts of the howling winds As the we create Ideas in the dead night out of our whims. I flinched. As I imagined of we creating something together. I felt discouraged because, I know for a reason that if we managed, I would fall into something I won’t understand. I will be dumbfounded. I will see that without you, I’d be nothing. I’m a scientist trying to disprove the existence of you making me feel nervous. On that, I wish to I bid adieu--

Empire State of Mind
You know its funny when all these years you wanted to be around with people, then suddenly, you want yourself to be secluded and isolated at the same time. You don't want attention. You even refuse the hands of those people who are reaching out for you. You of all people? You who always wanted to hang around with friends. You who always wanted to see the people you love brimming in happiness. You of all people who always reach a hand to your loved one's whenever you see them in despair. Look how things strangely turn all this upside down. You who merely thought that everything will just go accordingly. But NO. Times change. People leave. And memories fade. *"I want to be alone. Secluded from the reality. Pain? Loneliness? Those are only excuses. The truth is, You want to be free. You want to see yourself as you, Not worrying about What other people might say. Tranquility? There are moments Where you want to Turn back time. But you CAN'T. Reality is a sore Where everyone is Forced to stare Without any option. Cruel. Right? No. It's what it can only offer. Nothing more. Nothing less. *** Ugh! Nevermind."*

Nevermind
I know you sought for your desires, I came in short for my demise. The towers are lingering through the faceless shadows of your whim. I felt as if you’re Thumbelina, All sweet and big from within. The tulips fade as the winter crave to last for cold a summer winter gaze. I hear that those, Chilly winter breeze made you crumble Beneath that layered wool of lamb. I followed you because I felt that even once, I need to keep myself afar, from the critics and judgmental eyes. I know, I must not dwell In things that I might not feel, for the legends of those tales are only but from a quill. I hate the sound of the howling wind, as it reminds me of that winter screams. The ceiling of Cottony clouds, that carry a monotonous crowd. I escaped reality because I found that most are just living cows, bred ‘till fatten but butchered after. Is this the life I followed? Or is this just one of many ? I don’t know ‘coz I am not wary of the things that might come in handy. I guess that legends of one’s time And glitters of one flake will surely be preserved in a cold winter summer night.

F(ee)ling
It was the color of the rainbow as I walk down the street that made me feel and realize that there are moments where you find yourself in a painting of black in white. We keep in track of what is going on and what is about to happen. It was at this mundane scene where we find ourselves reluctantly struggling to see the colors behind the sea. The sea of ideas made to carry your boat into the island of painted walls and columns. I realized. The sweet smiles behind the black and white paintings where the feelings and the memories that were captured and kept in a small frame covered with glass to withstand the harsh storms called time. The color of the rainbow made me see the beautiful scenery that one could see. It was the picture of Me staring at You brimming with happiness and intricate Color of smiles within the island of Printed walls and columns.

Color..
*I miss those eyes Those stares so wary. The luminous arts In the skies that vary. The twinkling stars In the distance that carry The hope of light That makes anyone happy. The sadness aboard Makes thee worry About uncertainties Of life that blur's thee. It's Pandora's eyes Full of curiosity Which opens thy lies That makes things ****** The box that holds Those tears of envy The guilt that may Plunge thou weary. Mark the words Of the one in quarry And never doubt The ones who worry. Take those glory And live like a wolf Free from envy Aloof from many. See those fiery Eyes, Behold! The true compassion Of once thee hold. Ignite thy flames And let them hold The thought that you Dear, is special and hope.*
