Life’s a fright
I know that by heart
If we dwell on it,
life will stay as dark and gloomy.
Life goes on.
It only knows how to move forward.
So do me a favour,
And live the life that you deserve
If you stop now, the world will lose a spark.
Today sure is one hell of a beautiful day
It would be a shame to miss it.
Be alright.
Life’s ought to be just fine.
I’ve seen some people that seem to be struggling mentality, just know that life won’t stay as arduous forever and there are amazing things waiting for you :D

We all wanted to grow up,
Wearing the big kids crown.
But now…
All I want to do is grow down.
Time is too fast. Changes comes too fast.
If only I could stop time…

Drink some water
Eat something
Write a poem
Take a walk
Just sit there and exist for a moment

It’s okay
Nothing really matters anyway
Take care of yourself! Kind of ironic coming from someone who’s up at 12:30 writing poetry, not drinking, and not doing homework or anything else I should be. Meh :/

Ramadhan is coming to an end
And Eid is on its way.
Come with me my friend,
And together we will ride the waves
To our little 𝘒𝘢𝘮𝘱𝘶𝘯𝘨, listening to songs on end
And going through jams that might as well last for days.

The family is waiting for us,
With food stacked up high.
Pretty clothes is a must,
For saying we love ugly ones is a lie.

Eid is coming my friends!
So let's have some fun!
Eid Mubarak! Or as my people say, Selamat Hari Raya!

breathe
do you feel your lungs expanding?
do you feel you chest rising?
open
open your eyes
do you see the sun?
the moon?
the stars?
the clouds?
all of them were made for you
you
wonderful
       beautiful
                lovely
                                ­           YOU
sincerely,
someone who cares

He’s playful,
He’s charming.
A knight for all the darlings.

Yet sweet,
And kind!
And knows what's on your mind.

A leader,
When needed.
Facing challenges with his calm.

A master with swords,
And a wielder of words.
A master of both worlds.

Knows how to make me smile
Laugh,
And feel loved.

A knight in shining armour,
For me to call my own.
If only he existed...
One day guys, one day

They said I’ve changed
That I’m different than I was in September
That they liked her more

Of course they did
She was another dead fish going with the stream
She was scared
She didn’t want to make them upset

She tried to pretend that she was sane
That she was normal

She was sad
All the time
She was trying not to cry

She’s gotten better
Why is that not good enough for you?

The scars are starting to heal
Don’t make me make new ones
People make small comments/jabs about how I was better before.

Everything's wrong
But I know it's not
The future is happening
How can I make it stop?
I'm scared to death
I'm scared to live
I hate myself
I take a breath
Look in the mirror
I bite my tongue
I feel the fear
Plunge so deep
Even before it comes
Anxiety keeps me
From climbing the steep

Life can be tough.
That’s just how it goes.
Sometimes it’s enough
to drag you through lows.

Sometimes all you know
is pain and its sting.
Sometimes life will throw
just about anything.

It’s all for your good.
But it won’t seem that way.
It’s all understood
as a plan rotten day.

Looking back you will see
the gem hell will give.
But for now it will be
just a crap way to live.
This came to me as I was going to bed. I often get second thoughts about sharing my poetry. I get some acceptance but a ton of rejection. About half the people where I live don’t want to hear it whatever it happens to be. Over time it has a severe eroding effect on my confidence as a poet.
