i am 28

One thing I realized in this lifetime
Inner battle is the hardest to fight
And you cannot win this battle alone
So surround yourself with fighters like you
In the past, I felt like I keep on running in an endless road
But I suddenly got tired and came to a halt
And I thought: If I really need to get back on track
I need to first seek and reached out to God
At 28, I'm still trying to figure out my own self
What are my dreams and my motivations?
What do I want to do? Where do I want to be?
I promise back then that I'll be more honest with myself
These days, I'm slowly learning how to be me
By soaking myself in books of self-discovery
Spending time with my kindred spirits
And most of all, listening to the shout of the voice within me

a broken soul’s lament

𝒅 𝒂 𝒓 𝒖

June 23, 2020

The ghost of the past sometimes lingers
I was slowly drifting away but no one reached out
The people I trust and look up seemed not to care
And so I stopped coming and going for a while
I was afraid to face other people
I was afraid to be judged by them
I was afraid that I will never find the right words to say
And then I stopped being available
I was anxious that no one reached out
No one even noticed that I was drifting away
And I began to think that they were all selfish
And did not really care about other's sufferings
But sometimes I think it was also my mistakes
For not being open with them
But I was still young and vulnerable
And always felt like a lost soul in this realm
Their self-righteousness and my immaturity
I started to blame everything around me
From being hurt to having no care anymore
A lament of a numb heart of a once broken soul

pink cloud

It is almost sunset
I am surrounded by still waters
As I soak myself in the ocean
I see you as I look up at the sky
A beautiful pink cloud
Hanging peacefully above
A sudden smile formed on my lips
Thinking how beautiful you are indeed
I don't know how long I stare
For your beauty spreads out everywhere
Calm and peace inside my heart
Thank you for letting me see your beauty from afar

spring love

The flowers are blooming
And my heart keeps beating
The wind that blows on my face
Reminds those memories in my daze
Memories of you and me
That are always happy and free
Those smiles that never leave our lips
Shine brightly in our midst
Is this love that I'm feeling right now?
A Spring Love that blossoms somehow
On these beautiful chilly Spring days
Let's just listen to the lovely music that plays
