My heart desires
had always been to grow old with you,
Little did I know that life had already chosen my fate

That I'll remain alone as a motherless child,
And learn to find wings to fly out of my brokenness,
As I stand tall as the stick

My heart desires is no longer out of  choice,
It's either I stay and be consumed or I rise and conquer

First thing I do when
I get to work
is hide

Because a good employee
is hard to find

It has become one of the songs,
that we sing, yet we lost the meaning

We sing with no hope,
manifest with no believe,
neither understanding

But the question still stand,
are we really going to be okay?

To my hero
It is Father’s Day today...
And it was Mother’s Day a month ago...
And you are both to me...
For you have enough love for me to be a mother and a father…
You love me unconditionally...
You are, and will always be…
My best friend…
My mentor…
But overall…
You are my hero...
I worry when I see you sad...
And I laugh when you are happy...
I will always be there for you...
The way you have always been there for me...
Thanks for nurturing me, raising me and protecting me…
You are not alone...
Luckily... neither I am...

There is a difference between a father,
And someone you call a "Dad",

A father being only a naming word,
Whereas a dad is a doing word,
who steps in to love, guide, teach,
pick up the the pieces,
And have you experience the beauty of your creation through his eyes

Judging by her never ending smile,
and her melodic laughter,
which hide the cracks,
she looks the happiest,
yet she's just as fractured and empty.
HOPE Apr 2023
It keeps me sane,
That I keep tears in my pocket

For I know whenever I long for you,
Knowing I'll never see you again,
I'll just unzip and let it all out.
