It's been so long
Now my soul has withered..
Tired, my eyes threaten to close.
And as my fingers start to shake,
and the emotions in me start to break..
I pause —

Breathe in, breathe out.

Breathe in, breathe out.

It'll be fine.

I will be fine.

I tell myself that as I turn towards the wall,
Draped myself in a thin blanket,
Tears taunting my voice to crack.
I silently cry.
And then I pause.


Slowly but surely, I fall deep, deep, deep,... into a sad but comforting slumber.
Waaaaah, its been such a long time now! Happy New Year, Happy Valentine's Day, Happy Chinese New Year, so on and so forth. Glad to finally make a poem for 2018. Well wishes for everyone.
