So what do you do
when you inherit unlimited kindness
from one parent
and an untapped rage from the other?
Mama, what should I choose?
Micro Poetry
And I’m dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of you
And I made you my muse
without any expectations
without being loved back
‘Cause you lessened the empty space in my heart

Fall is coming 🍁
I taste a tinge of autumn in the air today. It’s on days like these when my eyes want to compete with the Sun’s brightness. I’ve often wondered why it’s always autumn, or the onset of it, that makes me value things more before their inevitable end. I’ve realized that I tend to cherish things more when I know they’re about to conclude.
It’s like how a fire burns brightest just before it extinguishes, revealing different facets we didn’t know existed.
Sometimes, I do secretly ache for the things not to change but the fleeting nature of life and the beauty in embracing transformation makes me appreciate that the miles we walk in this life are comprised of both stumbles and falls, regardless, we go through it. These changes within ourselves can be surprising. I’ve come to a realisation that I fall in love too fast. I fall for Fall and the little things around me too easily.

Don’t cry a river tonight
There will be rain,
lots of rain
when broken-hearted people
will mend their hearts.
The rain of tears
the rain of joy.
The rain of Time
ever lost in pain.

I don’t want it to pass…
Lame I write and my lover reads with the drool. Makes me wanna watch him and take away his sorrows in my pen.

The extremes one goes to…
Get me a thinnest stick,
So, I’d keep breaking my crutches
to show you I can be helpless.
I have set up a wrong example
by holding myself pretty well.
That you got to use your favourite
phrase again, slapping me right where it hurts,
“You are strong! You will handle!”
Dear April
April, Do you sing any song or sonnet?
Of voices of animals or non-living?
For I’m tired of listening to the noise
coming out of mouths trying to
make sense of everything.
Feathers
Those with wings have a
pesky habit of flying away.
My quill has feathers too.
What if it departs?
