Him
Him...
that put sorrow in his eyes
Make it sparkle a bit like glass marble
Heavy eye lids, and wet lashes
His pupils turn deep black
And I was immersed inside
I felt as if we are
At the end of rain where sun slowly
peaking over grey clouds
Those last tiny sprinkles
Refract a faint colourful arch
Our breaths are still misty
Yet we are gradually warmed

I know very well how happy it is
when getting something
But nothing here is ours to own
I end up being afraid of 'having'
Cause at some point of time
It will be taken back from me
As it has never been mine

Standing out of circle
It's the place that I once thought
Would accept me
But now it seems like they don't want to
I hoped here I could reside and be
Alas, no they say. Oh what should I do?
In the end,
I will be left
in the land that makes poetry inside me

My clumsy self...
What have you done?
Look at those regrets, all you had made
See how I unable to bear
The weep of the eyes
and pain of the fear

My poor heart...
What had happened?
It's so empty inside
and your light darkened
What had you put in there
that seemed to be taken

If ever time could turn back again
Would I not make the same mistake?
Walking through different lane
Could've this heart of mine not ache?

Sky is gloomy
It cries and groans
There are blizzard and storm
Showing to the whole world
its pain and sorrow
The earth wets with its tears
Even the sky...
Let go of what for it too much to endure

Success is not final
Failure is not fatal

Rise from where life trampled you over
Defeat, first, not the enemy but your own fear
