I strip myself of these tattered clothes,
And seek refuge in you.

Breathing out this aged agony,
For in your breath I am anew.

I refuse to rot with the moon,
For, I've met the sun.

He introduced me to my imperfections,
and the beauty held within them.

So, instead of rotting,
I flourish.

It will never be over soon,
For, I am eternal when I'm with you.

One Thing

One word stirs your heart
One smell lingers on
One tear rolls down
One friend becomes a stranger
One memory refuses to erase
One scar remains forever
One smile lights up the world
One emotion disturbs the present
One tune keeps haunting
One thought changes everything
One act ruins a life
One person makes a difference
One difference breaks a bond
One bond becomes weak
One weakness becomes a vulnerability
One vulnerability affects a relationship
One relationship…..ends

My dream was to ship my relation to the mark on the map.
Unimaginable when my treasure; Cleo, marked our love as Anthony.

A relationship of lush, love and power.
Heavy drinkers just for fun, we called ourselves "livers".

Your liver collapsed by the poison caused by our lavish lifestyle.

Our power together was unbeatable but failed miserable when you made my heart stop beating.

But our love was forever so you decided to meet me in the life hereon after.

I want to walk with you
through empty parking lots at 2am
And talk about all the things that don’t seem real
At 2am
Like we’re in some kind of parallel universe
Where the world falls silent
And our stories echo through the night
We would be unstoppable
At 2am
When everything that could ever come in our way
Is fast asleep
With only you by my side
At 2am
I swear
we could do it all

The sun is alone too

But it still shines all by itself.

walking under a moonlit sky
in the summer night's breeze
fireflies dancing magically
flitting between the trees

days that stretched forever
yet passed by so very fast
the future vanished overnight
a light that did not last

you were my inspiration
my world yours to command
painting a blank canvas
with the touch of your hand

the winds of time turned bitter
and the wintry snows fell
there was no in between
once our love bid farewell

I run to your memory
seeking what can never be
when rainbows still had colors
that shined across blue seas....
Sometimes memories are all you have....

Life is meaningless
I fear it and I know it

But amidst the nothingness
At least I can be a poet

(for them I surely show it!)

Still can't sleep
I sometimes weep

A quantum leap
Better than counting sheep

I’m a page of the book of life
Once pure and lure and white as white
Oh! Now tinged with too many inks
Still many are waiting to scribble a few.
With puny hands some wrote me soft
Some are harsh they tear my heart
Supple hands draw labyrinth lines
My prosaic precincts some plundered and pierced.
Now the book is with a naughty child
He tears the pages as he please
One by one or bunches of many
My weary long page will last in his jest.

ok?
didn't need to be
the one
didn't really ask
for much
just some company
possibly touch
never tried to force
you into love

all i wanted
was to know you
being close
could've been cool
but something happened
you withdrew
and now you're gone
and i'm confused
