His eyes spoke profoundly what his lips couldn't utter.

You're a grim reaper
Looking for a soul to devour
A mind to hack and a body to axe
Your empty eyes and that evil smile
Can't hide the fact that you're dead inside
You got the Jezebel vibes
Sound like a saint and feels like the devil
Forbidden is your tag
Dead and gone, your heart's nowhere to be found
Luring innocent souls into your empty shell
Got that charm that disarms
You're a grim reaper
A grim reaper

Plant a seed of hope in your  heart
Hope to make it through the night
When thoughts of fear and sorrow
Capture your mind and steal your peace
Be like a good farmer with faith
Knowing that the dry days will pass
And the soil will be watered
Once more you'll make a harvest
And your baskets shall over flow
With joy and laughter

I change like night and day
So don't get caught up in the moment
For It's just for a moment
I may ran away and hide, in the thick of the forest
But promise not to be alarmed
I'm fine all on my own
Promise you won't come out seeking for me
This is who I am
I'm a lone wolf
You got to understand
I need to recharge my soul
Stay clear off the noise
I'm a lone wolf
I thirst for freedom
Freedom to be alone sometimes
I'm a lone wolf
My spirit thrives on solitude
Without it I'll starve to death
But I'll be coming back
Back when my batteries are full again
Back when  my soul has gained back its mettle
Back when my mind, body and spirit are in one peace

They say the mind replays what the heart can't erase
It's such a shame that this story had to end before it even started
We might have drifted apart, but your path and mine crossed for a reason
For sure if our hearts were old friends then will probably meet again
Somewhere far away but not here not now
It's time to let this go, time to write this off and cut you off.
See the good in goodbye

We are flaming hearts
under the twilight
burning like wild fire
let our spirits fly
like kites in the sky
Surrendering to the winds of love
let the fires of our hearts
ignite  the skyline  like a phoenix rising
touch the moon
and reach for the stars
as our souls intertwine
and propel to the outer-space
loose control and find our destiny

My apologies if you thought you'd play checkers with my heart. Surely you deserve a round of applause for the biggest fool in town.

October 2018

It all began when a gentle heart fell for a wild heart. And as their walls grew thinner it became more crystal clear that; them meeting was more of an alignment than a happenstance. They were indeed two sides of the same soul.

Cloudy skies
Heavy downpour
Cold breeze
Swaying trees
Misty window panes
Traffic lights
Hooting cars
Gushing gutters
Drenched trench coats
Soggy feet
Colourful umbrellas
Crowded shelters
Empty side walks

The city skips a few hearbeats
And comes to a stand still
Soon as the pounding rain stops
Everything returns to normalcy

But rainy days call for
Steaming cups
Slouchy sweaters
Fluffy blankets
Snuggles
Cuddles
Novels
Notebooks
Gramophone tunes in the background
Enjoying a little piece of heaven
While the day is washed off
Setting stage for a clean fresh start
©Sonia Ettyang

Each and every new dawn is a chance to weave a web of fresh new thoughts and create a new reality
For today is full of presents, pre-sent to you as a reminder that the future is held in the now moments

His talk so smooth
His swag so fine
His smile so charming
Something about the way he moves
With one look, he gets all the girls hooked
You'll fall under his spell
But his in love with himself
He believes his magic mike
With a magic stick, and his wish is your command
To him your just a one time thing
He gets his thrills from his casual dates
Tomorrow he'll be out and about
Looking to lure his next victim
So stay away from his serial seductions
This one is a killer
This one is a genie

I thought I could save you from the your own demons
That lingered behind those empty eyes
But if I knew then what I know now
I should have ran and never looked back
As everything felt wrong right from the start
The love bomb
The mind games
The death stares
All those were red flags!
But I lied to myself
I lied to myself that me and you were destined
I lied to myself
That you were the chosen one, yang to my yin
I lied to myself
That you were my mirror and I was staring at my reflection
But you were just a mirage
Putting up a charade while you mimicked me
Took down my walls and entrance gain
I was so lost then but now I'm found
If you ask me I know better now
As for you, you'll never find what you're looking for
No amount of love on this earthplane can rescue your fallen soul back to light
For you need no saving, all you're after is your next source of energy, a chain of supply is what your ego craves.
Just know you can hide but never ran
Your Mr nice guy masks will soon fall off
Everything will lay bare and that void within will show
©Sonia Ettyang

Back and forth we've made rounds with this unrequited love. Shifting blames while stroking egos. I think it's time we let this go before we drive each other out of our heads.

Their heartbeats danced together when they hugged each other for the first time.

The universe is our canvas we bring it to life. So go ahead and paint it with your favourite shades. Let it Radiate with light and explode with vibrance. May it reflect the beauty within

You're the divine Rock
The gem of my life
You read my soul like an open book
Filled my emptiness with your divine love
You're my oracle spirit
Enlightened my mind and woke me from the spell
You're my dominion
You took over my whole life
Brought down my fortress
Broke down every bonds
Nourished my soul
Fed my heart
I'm now awakened, the old me is gone
My eyes are wide open
I can see the perfect illusion
© Sonia Ettyang

Somedays it feels like a night mare
Caught up in a dream where I'm the only one awake
Somedays it feels like I'm running blind trapped in a changing maze
Somedays it feels like I'm a bird floating in the atmosphere
with a happy go lucky vibe, just going with the wind
Somedays It feels like I'm the sun
My head is held up high and my soul is shining bright
Somedays are great
Somedays are vague
But everyday I'm here living
© Sonia Ettyang

It was random, it was unexpected
But I felt like I've known you before , seen you before, felt you before
You looked deep into my eyes for the first time
And it felt like you pierced right through my soul
So much so, I couldn't hold your gaze any longer
But that twinkle in your eye was oh! so perfect, sigh
And your voice **** it! it struck a chord in my heart
Opening a music box full of forgotten melodies
Oh, well I think I missed a heart beat every time you'd get close
So I ran and you denied it and hid away
We pushed each other away
But I still felt you when you'd think of me
And each day you'd trespass my lucid dreams
Clouding my mind with thoughts of you
I guess it's crystal clear that there's no escaping this soul collision
We are destined hearts, together or apart
Our souls are in sync for eternity
We are forever imprinted on each other
Like prints on the palms of our hands
So lets let this  love flow endlessly
and burn,  to infinity and beyond.

Falling back to the blank slate
dark night of the soul rising
Supersonic winds are whirling
Megastorms with shattering glass flying
Ooh I feel the acid rain pouring
I see the dust devils dancing
hurricane thunder's wrecking in

Wild Neptune tides are rising
Back and forth rising
Crushing drowning and burning
Neptune tides
Neptune tides

This is a tidal war
It's an etheric war in the pathless land
A battle of the titans
Loosing to the ******* hole
The open walls are closing in
But I see the oasis on the horizon
Beconing for my unbegotten soul
My spirit rises with rage
I slay the beasts and chain the demons
Take back my wings of freedom
And set my spirit free

2019

Gazing up the infinite sky
I see stars dancing in brilliant light
I see faces in the moon
It's a magical phenomena
Exploding like supernovas
It's a celestial ecstasy we rise again and again
Our souls are filled with joy
Our hearts with love
For a wild cosmic ride with our hearts open
Feel the bliss as we illuminate across the universe
Shine on, it's a limitless splendour
©Sonia Ettyang

Who knew the tiny electric sparks we felt when we first met, would light up fires so huge in our hearts that no one would dare fight let alone put out
©Sonia Ettyang

It's time to listen to your heart
I know the pain is buried deep
And your wounds have all scarred
But today, is the day that you let your parts cry their grief
Delve deeply into your old pains
Blow up with rage and terror
Bring out the demons you've been fighting for far too long now
Bring them all out in the lime light
Let yourself cry through it all
It's the only way you will heal
It's the only way you will be whole again
Let the tears fall down
The pain is yours to heal
Let it all out, Let it all out
©Sonia Ettyang

Pull out our heartstrings
And make a love yarn
Weave in and out
Make us our favorite cloth
Will wear it out on our sleeves
     ©Sonia Ettyang

Once you realize an empty soul is one who has lost; not a fight but a war that rages deep inside of their being.  Then you'll cease to compromise the sanity of your mind and soul for their sake. For no matter how hard you try to help them refill their vessel they'll still be running on empty.

December 2018

In the dense of the forest
I feel your mighty presence
In the whistle of the wind
I hear your voice
I see your beckon hidden in the shaking of the leaves
Your energy is present in the sun
and radiates through the horizon
Mountains and valleys spell out your mystery
Ocean and the sea live to tell your might
Open our eyes and see Gods presence curved in nature
Extraordinary beauty that no words can describe
God reigns in your midst
God reigns within your essence
God is all there is and all that is not
©Sonia Ettyang

When I rise to the rays of the sun
And stand tall through the shadows of the thick bushes
You marvel at my beauty
You fall in love with my fragrance
How I wish you looked at me differently
And understand why I grow thicker thorns
Far too many times I'd watch my petals fall
Through the rainy nights with the greatest storms
I picked my self up and grew again, rose again
I learnt that I must wither and fall before I bloom again
And fill the earth with my radiant essence
©Sonia Ettyang

Your Love is my catalyst
Got my mind evaporating
Permeating my spirit
Saturating my soul
Oh, our love's a chemical reaction
Always on equilibrium
This bond is forever unbreakable
© Sonia Ettyang

I lay down this dead roses
Out in the open field
Watch the petals turn to dust
And vanish in the wind
Make a heart felt wish
For a soul I once thought I knew is dead and gone
Sank deep into the abyss
So glad I could catch a glimpse of whats left of your sunken soul
And now I loosen my grip and set you free
May the waves carry the weight of your burdened spirit  
Forever hold your peace
©Sonia Ettyang

Into the dark of the night when our minds cruises through the infinite ebb of reality. We rise through the stellar heights feel the krypton energy activate, and evaporate through the outmost core causing a spectrum of fluorescent lights to radiate through the cosmic spheres.

Questers of truth
With mystical souls and mystery minds
Once in awhile need a rewind
Slowdown the pace
And seek for places and spaces that
reignite the spirit and water the soul
Seeking for places and spaces that speak peace and fill the mind with ease
Seek places and spaces that bring uttermost connection
A home away from home
A haven
© Sonia Ettyang

A warrioress needs a warrior
To match the rhythm of her wild heart and run wild with it
Ignite her flame and set fire to her soul, let her untamed spirit fly free

Together they transcend in love
Swirling like  a whirlpool galaxy
With a million stars shining
Exploding like supernova
Soaked up in stardust
Gracing the infinite space
Higher and higher
In divinity
©Sonia Ettyang

You and I signed up for this dance, but darling we somehow forgot the moves. Hence our souls do what they do best speak fluently in silence

In the land of filtered posts beautiful lies fake smiles and instant likes
Lies souls with tired hearts and broken wings
Locked behind screens
Too scared to admit they are falling apart
Too scared to admit that they are drowning in despair
Too scared to admit they are afraid and alone
As they stare in the mirror, the real reflection stares back
Revealing the crooked smile and injured soul
But, no! they can't let the world see what's beneath their beautiful
So they drink a glass or three to drown it away
Puff a cigarette or two to smoke it away
When morning comes they'll pose for the camera fake a smile post up and play it cool
While they gaze at their screens and keep count on their "likes"
As soon as the sun goes down
The sadness creeps in and their inner voice roars
They drink a glass or three to drown it away
Puff a cigarette or two to smoke it away
Until the sun comes up and put it on repeat
©Sonia Ettyang

Your wings are ready , set yourself free
Heed the call and take a leap of faith
Jump off the nest and move with the wind
Leave the past behind
Have complete trust in the power of your new found wings
Rise above the shadows of doubt that blind your heart
And go set go
Sit on the weakest  branches, without fear of falling
Stand on the tallest buildings and enjoy the best views
Rise to the infinite sky with clear vision and  focus .        
Soar higher and higher to new heights
Feel the rays of the summer sun
Kiss every flower in the open field
Fly child, fly
©Sonia Ettyang

You see right through me
Yeah, you live right within me
The fibre of my bone
The beat of my heart
Your love is slow poison to my spirit
I'm chocking in Supreme bliss barely breathing
Everytime we merge I feel like I'm transmuting
Sky diving in divine ecstasy
Man, how can love give me life so good it kills me inside
Oh! this will be the end of me
Best believe you've got the best of me
© Sonia Ettyang

Each time our eyes met
Two worlds collided
You could tell what we were feeling
was beyond our control
Just like that I fell for you and you crushed for me
Everything flashed in front of us
Like a long lost memory coming back to light
And we are just picking up from where we left
This is a story, written in the stars
Two destined hearts meant to come together as one
