I'm just like an orchid
clinging on a tree
hanging around harmlessly
sipping it's nutrients
without a care
taking advantage
of it's hospitality

I'm just like an orchid
clinging on a tree
being taken care off
and i'll bloom beautifully
my flowers will make you smile
it will warm your heart
and turned you senile

but even though
the tree is being ignored
it never complains
thus giving me everything and more

I'm just like an orchid
clinging on a dying tree
I will die along with it
My flowers will wilt
My roots will rot
and just like an orchid
dying with a tree

I didn't even realized
the great love
that was given to me

I thought you were everything
a man of greatness
is what I thought you were
but then as time passed by
flaws and conflicts emerged
the sweetness and adoration you gave
turned to pain and hate
the lies you spout
the promises you broke
the pain you gave
it haunts me til this day
the man I once looked up
is now below me
unmoving, cold and gone
gone to a somewhere
far away from here
leaving all the pain behind
no apology, no closure
just bitterness, smoke and ashes

there's a house with a big red door
inside I saw a terrified boy
big bushy hair, wearing a shirt with a hole
then i tried to peek at the boy's soul

looking at him
putting an emotionless face
staring at his eyes
showing a weeping gaze

but then I turned back
and there was no red door
then suddenly the boy
wasn't in front of me anymore

finally it hit me I thought
I was going crazy
there was no house with big red door
it was just me

reminiscing my old self before

when will it end? I'm too scared to end it myself
afraid of putting the last dot in my story
naive enough to hope for a better sequel
that will only be out shadowed by its own prequel
A better story is what I'm pleading
with joyful characters and painless scenes
no hate, regret and doubt
a story that will make you feel one with the crowd
filled with lies and forgery, a deceitful story
that will take me away from my reality

The day that we met,
I felt a sudden change
I began to yearn
of tomorrow's uncertainty
I don't hate or love it,
but its new
nice and warm,
just like you

a blessing that was given
to the people who are certain
some are unwilling
but still received the blessing

a gift that will test your patience
filled with hardships and rewards
you'll struggle and ask questions
that hinders you to move forward

a blessing that can't be weigh with hardships and rewards
a gift that will give you meaning
a blessing that can be unexpected
a gift that prolongs our existences

praises are thrown
at the king wearing a barbed crown,
but when his not around
people thought of him as clown
surrounded by flattery with duplicity
and desperation of supremacy
still he never did lose his hope in humanity
