I took the train home today
although I was surrounded by the busy society
going about their day, I was alone
I had no one to call a company-
well, other than my phone
and also the 2 different people
who sat next to me through my journey.

I took the train home today
usually you would come with me
(I sat by myself)
we would sit on the 3-seater seat;
(I leaned with a sigh at the edge of the 4-seater)
2 for us and 1 for our bags
(just one for me and my bags on my lap)
you next to me, and our shoulders touching
(just my shoulder with a stranger and a glass pane)
we would talk about our week during college
(I mentally talked to myself about what happened)
we would flirt with humour and touch
(I stared into the distance imagining you here)
our stop-stations next to each other, yours first to leave
(I dropped off at a different station today)
you would get off and wave me goodbye until I'm out of sight
(I stared past your station with a lonely heart)
I would quickly get off on mine and text you I've arrived
(I walked out and stared at the train as it leaves)

I took the train home today
as I sat alone in my own little corner, I wondered
is it sad that our love is only true in the train we take?
If so, I will keep getting on our train
if it means you will come back
and we will relive our imagination
just us in our own little world.

His words created a ripple in her eyes
tears threatening to fall, anytime
what he never thought when he
decided to keep a secret from her,
is how her porcelain face that has been
sculptured to always have a smile on it
will break when she finds out.

We're one half of a pair of jigsaw puzzle
and like many puzzles, we will meet
the wrong other half
before we find one that is made
to fit with us
but what if along the way,
in the process of finding our other half
we have deformed ourselves
in order to try and fit with the ones
that are just not meant for us?
Does it mean our original shape will no longer
be for the one we're destined for?
And we missed the chance of our
fated happily forever and after?
Or are we meant to be damaged?
So we can fit with another shape
that is also damaged,
but the type of damage that is supposed
to go along with you?

Your words are like food
and you are the cook
before you serve your dish
you make sure of the taste
if it tastes good, people would like it
if it tastes bad, people won't like it
and most probably they won't come again
is it not the human nature to be pleased?
Be careful of what you serve.

Introduction, they call it
but to me, it's just another excuse;
how are you?
what is your name?
where do you come from?
what do you like to do?
so gather up your storytelling skills
tell us about yourself
tell the world about yourself
or rather tell us how you'd want yourself to be like
a very sad excuse indeed
so seize this chance to start anew,
or is it an escape?
