Beloved


I would spin the sea-spray
fashioning a belt for you


I would braid the rolling waves
to spread a sleeping mat for you


I would weave of the clouds
a shawl to cover the hair of you


I would stitch the mountain breeze
into an evening-gown for you


I would pluck from the eastern star
a brooch to adorn the breast of you


I would shake down the eclipsed moon
for a lamp to light my longing


I would feel the sun
into a sea of night for you
breathing the honeyed sweetness of you


Beloved, 
Count the dreams
That slew the truth
With their false paradise

Words couldn't quite describe what you are to me. A friend? A twin? A sibling? A sister? A reflection ? ... or just another human being? I remember vividly that one afternoon when your grandma came and brought you a pair of white shoes. I think, that was the moment I started to know you. We clicked right away and the rest is history. Among many things I like about us includes the different beings that we are, as an individual. Very true, we are divided by the end of spectrum, surrounding thoughts and view of life in general.

We shared everything but nothing.  Although sometimes, silence is the best story-teller. Now, in the middle of the journey, I think I could figure who yo...

Well, I'm begging on my knees Can you save my bastard soul ? Will you wait for me ? I'm scared to get closed and I hate being alone I long for that feeling to not feel at all The higher I get, the lower I'll sink I can't drown my demons, they know how to swim

Say it all

Every day, it has always been such a hard time for me when reading the news. Aside from slow internet connection, I seem to distract myself from reading them because I know my heart couldn't take it anymore. Growing up, I have always been hunting, reading and watching the news, articles, magazines, bulletins and much more from all sort of genres and sources. I have always intrigued to know more and more and more bout what's going on with the world as I eat my ice cream. But, never in those time, like today that I've been so upset and mad upon news I read and watch. All of this nasty inhumane and immoral conduct that surrounds us give me all sorts of feeling, and worse, to even burst my tears in no minute. Apart from that, I can't seem to really understand and even fit into the pop-culture era/moment/decade/years (you name it) that we are living in. Viralling is now a thing? I'm all for people sharing personal experience and their proud moments, but now, we can...
