I Know I Hope

I know I know

I know so well

Yet I refuse

I refuse to accept

I refuse

I hope I hope

I truly hope

For a glimpse of hope

I hope I could

I could

Gallop

Sky sheds tears

Antelope gallops in fear

Night sheds tears

Heart chills and sears

OBSESSED

Oh, life is cruel!
Being a man makes it double.
Still, life is a wonder -
Everything has its taker.
Say, what can you offer?
Soul of yours for a favour?
Er, you may say I am the Lucifer,
Dwelling in you forever...

Pendant Lamp

orange bulb in a pendant lamp

hung up high on the window-pane

glasses are polarized

dimming the bright, blue sky

i wonder what it symbolizes

it feels dreamy and mysterious

as if the space freezes

to keep hold of the precious

His Life

Everyone in this world

is born for a reason;

that is to live his life to its fullest.

As time passes,

the reason to live grows;

living life to its fullest

may now be a myth.

Everyone has different approaches in life -

one may work hard to achieve his dream;

yet, the dream may not be realized;

still, he never gives up.

As time passes,

he finds life is never fair -

one may not exert himself;

yet, still be more successful than the others.

He tries to go with the flow,

as he has got himself a job;

doubtful the job brings success to him;

still, he never gives up.

As time passes,

he grows tired,

his doubt doubles,

he starts to waver...

He has no one to turn to.

No one can help him.

This is his life -

the life he pursues.

Still, he never gives up.

Fish

Fish swims

In icy, cold water

Swimming against current

To reach the border

Fish swims

In warm, tropical water

Swimming through waves

To reach the ocean floor

Fish swims

To reach the border

To reach the ocean floor

To reach its port of call

Fish swims

Fish persists

Fish perseveres

To reach its port of call

Fish reaches its stop
