Medicine For The Soul
Bookman Feb 2017
When time has taken its toll
Let silence be
Your medicine for the soul

The Heart, A Murder
Bookman Apr 2016
Never wound
What you cannot ****
Never steal
What you cannot have

Never promise
What you cannot fulfill
Never love
What you cannot feel

Heroes of a Broken Land
Bookman Apr 2016
Where am I supposed to stand
In all this blood and carnage
Where farmers beg for food
In their own homeland

This love is for a nation
Not for another person
For they who care
They were lit like flares

Save this land from all this pain
Abundance of lies and hate
She took a stand and squealed
As her tears fell along with the rain
This poem is addressed to all the victims of the inhuman violence in the city of Kidapawan (city in the Philippines). Their plea for rice was answered by bullets through their hearts.

Icarus
Bookman Nov 2015
Wings of wax and blood
You left at my doorstep
A grim reminder
Loving the sun is not a mortal's task

Uncertainty
Bookman Nov 2015
Why are we born unable to fly
To feel the night sky
Why are we born with four limbs
But refuse to crawl

Why do we seek the light
When we are born from the dark
Why do we destroy
In order to create

Why do we sacrifice
Just to see
That the only thing we know
is we don't know anything at all

— The End —
