Richard Frank Jan 2019
Always, they say, we are not meant for each other
That love was never made for the both of us
That your flaws tear us apart
I beg to differ
You're just perfectly imperfect
Let us try this
Richard Frank Jan 2019
Drifting towards a doleful river of anguish and grief
So does the sky was agitated, rain was descending
But then I knew, buried deep in my soul,
Tears also continue to fall
It floods the world with  my misery
The flood came crashing like waves, I was helpless,
So I drowned

If my time has come to an end, make a million tombstone
For I died a million times
A poem about pain
Richard Frank Jan 2019
As the wave kisses the land
The wind passes by gently across the shore
It ripples through the sea
One by one, the waves disappear inevitably
It fades from my sight, as it vanishes from the bay
The sun withdrew its rays
The breezy sky transitioned its way
Night has embodied the heaven
Looking down on the playful waves
Let me try waves
Richard Frank Jan 2019
If ever, I disappear from this world
If ever, my existence has returned to dust
Scatter me in the night sky
Submerged me with the stars
So I will lay down on the cozy heaven
Gazing down on you
You'll make the earth so fine
Even the stars will be in love with you
I offer a short poem
Richard Frank Jan 2019
Seasons pass one after another
Hope leaps like the grass that grows sweet and green
Shaking the earth beneath the flowering plums of spring

As the sun conquers the sky,
Its eyes wander the heavens with pure apathy
My life is all dried up in midst of bustling summer

While the wind stirs whispers to the trees
Autumn walked the earth with rage, perishing the colorful leaves
It withers and falls along with my hope, cries of annihilation howls the skies

Winter has impaled the world with its bare fingers
The silver hue dominated the sky, crystal snow falls silently
The world grew colder, so did my heart

Dear, my repugnant past, I bid you this poem of farewell
For in the next season, a flower will bloom to tell a poem of hope
But it will never die out, even if it is starved of sunlight
A poem of farewell
Richard Frank Dec 2018
We were lying on our backs
Surrendered to the night sky
I gazed to her like I did to the stars
So memories ought tell me,
I loved someone so beautiful in my life
Love will never perish
Richard Frank Dec 2018
My eyes ran naked across the sky
It was bombarded with flashing bright colors
They were shining with passion
Souls seemingly igniting high up the clouds, greeting the stars from above
They are free falling, they are lost
Leaving traces of ashes and dust

Ashes that signifies the past that they left behind
Scattered dust that symbolizes our vague perception of our future
They befriend with our sweet night sky, like how we will greet our new year
The flashing lights, asking us to be exactly who we are,
Magnificent spark of human life
Just like that fireworks, we ought to appreciate whatever happened and whatever will happen.
