Body glistening in the sun,
A sweat trickled down my face.
It's 8pm into the night,
Yet it feels like the day hasn't gone by.

My mind blanketed by a shroud of unconsciousness,
I'm staring at a tangled draft.
An obvious clutter in my view,
A pile of junk I presumed.

Anxiety was at an all time high,
The lights on the streets blurring by.
My lighted cigarette was the only thing I could see,
Yet with perfect vision,
I couldn't see the forward path.

A passion in us,
a drive within individuals.
If nurtured right,
it will lead to a future bright.

Given the times,
we are all born with future;
Even with so,
grieve still live within us all;
with depression hand in hand,
poisoning us whole.

These were supposed to be the times we prosper;
Suprisingly,
many of us falter.

Who is to be blamed for this?
If you're an atheist,
would you blame a
non-existent god for this?

The answer lies within us,
to remain appreciative and kind,
only then would we be calm.

So let's help all in achieving this,
and may our souls rest in peace.

The essence of the very best
is in us all,
but how do we achieve and strive,
without no direction at all?

Airplanes flying,
old couples chilling;
How can one have such dedicated lives,
when the youth are sinking?

Death works in mysterious ways;
Yet it's an expected thing.
A form of acceptance,
one must learn not to cling.

It happens when you least expect it,
it happens without a tip.
It happens in a blink of an eye,
and the soul is His to keep.
A rattle of death is shaken,
with grieve in its place.
A life will soon be departed,
and into His hands you will be placed.

No one’s prepared enough for the afterlife,
but a little faith will take us far.
Live an otherwise benign life,
with humility higher than par.
For we’re all just humans,
our organs in a jar.
A living piece of matter,
waiting for the untold.

sweet, sweet mellow
you can't help but to feel yellow
with a tune so catchy,
you can never catch yourself feeling moody

an enchanting beat
complete with bopping heads
feeling like you're at an island
sipping to the scenery away

everything seems calmer
with the world feeling much kinder
a sense of peace
oh, this is just the right release

you were my everything
the twinkling stars that i wished upon
the scorching sun that gave me light
the round moon that reflected so bright
and a hope for better days to come

but seasons change
weathers don't stay the same
tides grew bigger
storms were louder
we couldn't stay
our home was being deranged
with its bricks falling
with its memories dying
with our souls withering away

i watched you fade away
into the darkness you became
a whole other person, you changed your ways
i could no longer feel the same
especially since the day you walked away

no, I'll never say i regretted this
neither will i say that i want you to stay
the truth hurts
you have already gone too far away
there's nothing left of you in my room
maybe a photograph or two
for the good times when i think of you
other than that, i wouldn't want you around
you scarred me so terribly,
how could i not frown?

so it's best this way
us being on our separate ways
i hope she treats you best
i hope your mind would finally be at rest
you were my greatest test
to be apart, one shan't fret
you were once my everything
but you're in safe hands now
with that being said,
i can finally end our final chapter and with it bid our final goodbye
