What is longing?
Why do we miss?
Of sorrows and grief?
Or simply for bliss?

A lover, a friend
A relative, a family
Or simply just someone
Who made us feel happy

It can break it can bleed
Could make us all plead
For we always want better
Than the ones we have hither

Despite of all that
They may have hurt bad
It's all in the past
And it's me I still have
There was once a fella named Jules

Who packed his bags, and got nothing to lose

Before he passed away,

His mother was sick

Dad went off his own way.


Jules went on to a life worth knowing;

That to love is to heal

And we learn by hurting

As he was leaving

He looked on a picture

Of a former lover who hate him

He felt nothing but one thing

That she loved him dearly.


He went to the bath

Closed the door behind his back

Laid down on the floor

With mom and dad.

As he stared at their lifeless bodies.

He shared them a laugh:

"Mom, dad... your son was bad"


Sirens wail from a distance

As I stared on the floor and caressed

My dear Jules' head

"Oh what fools we have become"

"I wish I was there"



...He did what he needs done
For he still does care.
Been keeping my dark thoughts far too long...
I just needed a release from everything.

Everyone please take good care of yourselves.
I've listened to pioneers
I've talked to delinquents
Heard of rumors
Learned of facts
Theories of the curious
Laws of the illustrious
Everything is the same
And it's the same in every "right".

As long as we continue to abide
To break and to rule and oblige
Always on queue as we search for clues
We always do, but settle our dues
To live and to be exterminated
To be downtrodden, to be accepted
We live a virtuous yet infectious life
But not all are asleep-laid to rest every night.

Some give birth as the reaper does its work
Love forever blooms as cults of hate still lurk
Religious gospels countered by the sacrilegious
Funny how both sides argue on identical mediums
One nation, one race, yet we cancel each and erase
Its the start of the end,
but what does life has to say?
We all are on a constant search for meaning, but never asked the meaning itself.
Aching chambers
Sullen froths
The raven angers
As hope is lost
Consumed oh hallowed mind
As the feeble and broken, cried

Beneath empty boardwalks
Townsmen bleeded across
Still I find myself in gawk
As the dawn of man drew close
Reality found me encased
In an existence duly erased

"Im the only one here right?"
Says a feminine voice
It was of a lost lover
To whom I never knew.

In a plane of consciousness
Submerged in repose
I sat there, cornered, enthralled
A living dream I am in
A dream I never arose.
Inspired from a midnight nightmare and a day-dream...
I reek of famine and havoc
I infest upon the masses
I choose not one but all classes
All windows sealed, doors all locked

Through these emptied streets
I strut forth, the people bends its knees
Behold my wrathful grand
As you close your folds at my command

As the living eye gazes upon me
All they could fathom is but a reflection of theirs
Reflections from irresponsible, greedy heirs
Of the thrones where they drink merrily now bare

Behold for your capital punishment
You filth of the human kind
Now with all power due to you
I put on my crown as I relish the view
20 March 2020
(COVID-19 took over earth)

"It is not the virus who'll **** us, but us the people and our irresponsibility"
We live in a vessel of dreams
Where thickets of our desires slithers
Underneath broken wings
As our heart's melody play and flutters

Stagnant as water as solid as fire
How could I fly in such a cold-grown fry
Beneath the bridge under the slims
Of cold and death of broken limbs

Living off the edge of the cliff
As my heart race and wonders
Cold as my body I am in lee
Why do we have to live daily in fear?
...

[Monday, 8:49am...]

Keyboards hurriedly crack and click
As my mind sends me adrift
Among these papers and clips
A photo of you I kissed.

It's perhaps a beautiful day it is
It's a beautiful day, with you I miss...
