Disquieted

If I let go
To search for
And find not
What will I live for?

Pluckier

Thoughts are undulating my palm
Akin to the squashy stream
Staring explicitly at my blankness; they recognise
Before I could respire
I close my eyes
And feel my heart thrashing within, soothing tempo
It takes my fear over
Briskly into my gullet
They say….

Don’t slash the thread that joins you to veracity.
Don’t be afraid of the white sheet
Write down something….

If I pull this off...

Maybe I should hark
And not tell I'll hit a mark
If I pull this off
For a friend...

Will he peck me?
Will he hug me?
Or will he cry,
'O you're a genius?'

That we shall know
If I pull this off
For a friend!

Life

That spot,
Friendly to her
So quite and peaceful,

Placed my little nephew.

The sun was always dazzling
Stars would sparkle
The sky was navy
However, he saw none.

For nine months,
He has been in the dreamland
Now, it is time,
To face the wonderland

For a man was born
To encounter challenges
Deal with conflict and change
That is what life is all about.

Fortitude

The liquor on your breath
Does not make me dizzy
Being with you until death
Is something so easy

Sitting alone in the night
I could hear the voice
Saying it will be alright
Which makes me rejoice

Gonza

He goes to the bars
and licks them bottles clean
Then comes back home past midnight
something is wrong with this boy

He would help at home
and play with his siblings
But now he prefers hanging out
with men his age

He has starved so much
That his trousers can not fit
However much he accompanies them
With a huge belt

I wish I had a chance
to sneak into his heart
But the key to that heart
was thrown in the ocean

Commence

Graduating
Is a dream come true
for both graduates and parents

It is one of those precious moments
That tears of joy stream
For fulfilling the dream
