Fleeting air
She walks with grace, a world of light,
A thousand paths within her sight.
I stand on one, but she's not mine,
While others wait in tender line.

Her heart a garden, rich and wide,
And I, the lonely one outside.
I wonder if she sees me there,
Or if I'm just a fleeting air.

Lost
In silence, I fear the growing space,
A whisper of doubt I can't erase.
Her laughter shared with another's ear,
A friendship that I can't come near.

The miles between us stretch and bend,
And I wonder if this will be the end.
A male friend's smile, her trust, her light,
Am I losing her to the quiet night?

Warmth
We shared no touch, not yet a glance,
But in our words, I feel the dance.
A spark ignites in every line,
A warmth thats growing, soft, and divine.

Though we haven’t met, I’m starting to see,
How easy it is to feel so free,
Talking to you, so light, so bright
A bond already shining in the night.

Feelings
We’ve talked for hours, hearts laid bare,
Though we’ve not met, you’re always there.
Your voice, your laugh, they fill my mind,
A deeper connection, hard to find.

I’m starting to fall, though we’re apart,
A quiet love is growing in my heart.
I can’t wait to meet, to see you face,
But for now, I’m happy in this space.

Love is blind
Alex Teng Oct 2020
You can fall in love listening,
You can fall in love smelling,
You can fall in love talking,
You can fall in love looking.

At the same time,
Listening to the same song bores you,
Smelling the same perfume makes it less special,
Talking to the same person agitate you,
And looks will fade over time.

It started with love,
Excitement ,
Hopes,
And ends with
Reality,
Responsibilities.

Eventually, it becomes familiarity.

Love is blind.

Differences
Alex Teng Feb 2020
We all are stubborn,
We all make wrong decision,
But we all ain't rich.

'Principle' is what we all say when a successful man is being stubborn,
And a 'risk taker' is what we all call when a successful man made a wrong decision.
'Man' is a general term referring to a person regardless of the gender please don't get me wrong

Shame on the misguided, the blinded, the distracted and the divided.

You have allowed deceptive people to corrupt and desensitize your hearts and minds to unethically fuel their greed.

Men's pain
Alex Teng Dec 2019
Why alcohol taste so bad,
Yet man can't quit,
Because a man's pain,
Can only be swallowed in his stomach.

Drinking is just a temporary paralysis,
Life goes on after waking up,
A man's pain can't be told casually,
Because they are carrying a whole family behind them.

What attracts man
Alex Teng Oct 2019
Woman's smile, for example, attracts a man;
but an even temper retains him.

A pretty gown attracts a man;
the knowledge that it was inexpensive delights him.

A pleasant manner attracts a man;
brightness of brain holds him.

A knowledge of how, when and where to be a little stately, attracts a man;
an appreciation of the folly of frivolity, wins his respect.

A respect for the religious belief of every human being attracts man;
irreverence in woman is to him abominable.

A consideration for his comfort attracts a man;
a continuation of this makes him your humble slave.

A chat which there is no malice, attracts a man;
neither scandal nor evil speaking make a woman sweet and lovely to him.

Three guys are on a boat,
With four cigarettes,
But nothing to light them with,
So they throw one cigarette overboard,
And the boat become a cigarette lighter.

Be
Alex Teng Sep 2019
Be
Sometimes I wonder,
What would I be,
If I didn't made those mistakes,
Would I be happier,
Would I be stronger,
Would I be able to make my parents prouder,
Or would I be a loser,
Or someone who's prouder,
Someone who lack the empathy,
To sympathise those weaker.

In love story,
Mom always agrees,
While dad disagrees,
It's because mom knows what love is,
And dad knows what boys are.

Eye contact
Alex Teng Jul 2019
It's when we fall into slumber,
When we cry, when we remember,
Through the short times that we've shared,
For all the pain we compared,
It's when I looked you in the eyes,
It's when my heart couldn't lie,
For the hundredth of time,
You've hurt me inside,
I still can't let you down.
