Hidden Glade
I fly on borrowed wings
I stole from an angel
But now you call me yours
your guardian angel


I'm not sure what to think about that
because I thought you were mine
my beautiful angel
someone who cares

so which is true then love?
Are you my guardian
or am I yours?

I guess we'll see who gets hurt this time
won't we?

Prayer for Hope

I fall on my knees...*
my fingertips kiss the ground.
I incline my head...
my eyes close slowly.
I gasp for air in between shallow breaths...
my lips quivering.
A torrent of tears gush out
and drench every ounce of my soul...
whilst every fibre of my being...
and every beat of my heart
pray...


*a prayer for hope.

Doleful and rheumy
Lost their light and sparkle
Shuttered and heavy
Stars in them no longer twinkle

Another Trip

Release the thoughts
and daunting images,
from the prison of this mind.

Allow peace,
trust and faith,
to remedy these exhausted breaths.

Knead sincerity,
wisdom and positivity,
into this growing passion.

Efface the insecurities
and depressed inner voices
from this feeble self.

Fuel this heart
with goodness, patience,
strength and kind selfless love.

To keep going and living,
one day at a time

*as the earth takes another trip around the sun.

Someday

Someday will come for us.
Till then our blemished secrets
and tarnished dreams only lay in wait.

Our hands may now yield nothing...
But “someday” sleeps quiet
at the back of our minds.
Awaiting for enough time to elapse.

Someday can never be rushed.
It can never be summoned.
It will come when it comes
and when it does, we’d hardly notice
it’s arrival because the anticipation
and longing will be replaced by overwhelming happiness and relief.

So wait...
It will come.
Someday “someday” will be today.

This is nothing but another depressed soul

Typing away all that I know

See I've been months clean

But there is things unseen

A smile that is fake

A laugh they can't take

Beneath it all something I couldn't take
