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

Good Luck!

Great minds think alike
Owl sleeps with eyes open wide
Only the wise could survive
Don't whine, let's strive in life

Life itself is a wonder
Unwraps along with the counter
Creates chances for the people
Keep striving to be better

Photograph

by Ed Sheeran

Loving can hurt
Loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
When it gets hard
You know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing that makes us feel alive

We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
Times forever frozen still

So you can keep me
Inside the pocket
Of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer
'Til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
Wait for me to come home

Loving can heal
Loving can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know (know)
I swear it will get easier
Remember that with every piece of ya
And it's the only thing we take with us when we die

We keep this love in this photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Our hearts were never broken
Times forever frozen still

So you can keep me
Inside the pocket
Of your ripped jeans
Holdin' me closer
'Til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone

And if you hurt me
That's OK, baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go

Wait for me to come home [4x]

Oh you can fit me
Inside the necklace you got when you were 16
Next to your heartbeat
Where I should be
Keep it deep within your soul

And if you hurt me
Well, that's OK, baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go

When I'm away
I will remember how you kissed me
Under the lamppost
Back on 6th street
Hearing you whisper through the phone,
"Wait for me to come home."

ENGLISH

Endless time we spent online
Nothing is clearer than the blind
Given our very best try
Looking hard for every possible kind
Interaction and compromises that we find
Somehow don't seem too fine
However, we are fools and we don't mind

Date Me on My Birthday

Outside the gate
You shouted my name
I peeked through the pane
And saw you outside the gate
Shouting my name

You've got me, in April
The 15th night
To the seaside
You've got me, in silence
A big surprise

12 a.m.
Light was out
Pitch dark
You held my hand
Kissed my forehead
And you said, you said
Happy Birthday

Candles, blown
Memories, born

16th this year
Will you hold my hand
Kiss my forehead
And say, say
Happy Birthday

Candles, blown
Memories, born

English - the lingua franca?

I had just finished my work and was having a great adrenaline boost to enjoy my one-week break and usher the Year of Goat.

Alas, I bumped into a "no-adjective-could-describe-this-terrible-yet-dramatic-feeling" situation.

I always thought English is the lingua franca, but it is terribly difficult to portray my thoughts/feelings in English to someone who fared poorly at English!

As the conversation went on, the problem arose then. I was like - ouch, I should have written a descriptive essay to tell that person what I actually felt in order to prevent any misinterpretation in our communication.

It was too late though. A stitch in time saves nine? Uh, well... I've had enough of his drama anyway. There were wayyyyyyyyy too many ripped parts to be stitched. I'm done. So ...

hello.. plss.. u said u were sorry because u couldnt make it to my house coz u needed to go back home earlier than planned. and i replied u it was good n have a safe journey home, which literally means it was alright, i didnt take it hard from you. From there, u said i didnt intend to welcome you to come over la.. this la that la... well, i didnt have that intention in the 1st place thus eventually i just acted according to your flow to satisfy your craving in order for u to feel much better for cancelling your earlier plan to drop by my place in a truthfully sarcastic manner; lest you keep on emo-ing over the trivial matter which i see no significance to brood about. alas, you dont seem to get it. that's why i typed this long essay with an intention that you would get what i was and i am trying to tell to prevent any further miscommunication. oh well, yeah.. till then...

WAKE UP

Windowpane is shut, 
Autumn has just passed, 
Kite-string is snapped, 
Everything needs a reset. 

Until I am stiff and cold, 
Please, hold me close...

RINDU

Rantau kita jauh letaknya
Ingatan kita takkan kulupa
Noktah cerita tak kupinta
Dilema jiwa kian bergelora
Untuk siapa ku sengsara

JIA YOU

Joy is what I feel
In my heart
And this is all because of
...
You appearing in my life
On that very day
Unfolding our destined fate

枯了

叶枯了

水再淋

也会枯的

空气与真空

空气里

变得空荡

有点矛盾

也有点忧郁

真空里

有的是回忆

也含有梦想

与咱的过去

Impulse

The air wafts from you

It triggers my sensory cells

My brain analyses the impulse

It is sweet and fragrant

The light emits from you

It triggers my sensory cells

My brain analyses the impulse

It is bright and colourful

The sound produces from you

It triggers my sensory cells

My brain analyses the impulse

It is soft and silvery

Sands Of Love

When you try to move a huge boulder,

It will leave a deep mark on the ground.

If you want to move my heart,

Do fill up the mark with nothing but your love.

Of course, in return, I'll be your boulder -

To shield you from mishaps and depravity.

Even if I am eroded to sands,

I would pave a way for you to walk on.

The One

Hours and days,

Amidst everything -

Praying to Him,

Pleasing Him,

Yet hoping to be the one.

Blessed with good lucks;

I ponder,

Reckoning with probability -

Time will show me lights,

Hamper all darkness,

Drench me with good fortune,

And ultimately

Yield me the one.

Jest about the past,

Enshrine the future,

Never give up,

Quell one's feeling,

Look up always,

Inch forward everytime -

Integrate them and I shall be the one.

So here I pledge -

One and the only

Humble me.

The Invisible

There wasn't any

And

There is none.

Will there be one?

Or 

One too many?
