I WONDER WHAT YOU ARE MADE OF



I wonder what you are made of

I’m afraid; I fear if I don’t write this
Then I should never write again
I’m afraid; I fear if I do write this
It would not be as good as it should be
But I do like to try, though I am not a supernova in the pen galaxy

You are just too good
Like I just bumped into you
The moment I needed your kind
Lately I haven’t been so close to my pen as I used to be
But I can’t just help my urge to pick the pen once more

If I can make one person smile
Then I won’t stop writing
There were times my pen inspired me to write
But now I’m inspiring my pen to write
Hello miss (Mrs.), I’m sorry I have just one problem
It is just a problem of how do I?

How do I write about this ephemeral glimpse of goodness?
That passes like a fire fly cheering me up from whenever to whenever
I’ve never been so jealous but I desire to have these cheers all to myself
How do I put into words what I know of this essence?
On my days of fearful loneliness and exhausted immobility
Moments when I thought it would be fun to just cry

You revived my sleeping devotion
And kept my heart beating and pumping
Then, it hurt so much
Now it feels just too good and right
In my deepest moment of achy loneness and sadness
You came by, but always like a fleeting ninja

Don’t mind my greed to amass
I always feel like having more when I’m true to myself
But I have shown it in least cases
Well, I don’t think I’m overly jealous
I’m just being a normal teen

Now I feel a different kind of pain
I think a cupid has shot me more than ten times in a moment

Now let forget about me and my pen

On this usual day I write you this piece
It is not figurative, neither is it imaginative
I’m just holding this pen and its writing my mind
Pardon its choice of expression if they happen to be ‘in appropriate’
It is not a very literate pen

But I still do like to say
In the words of my own
You have become a precious friend
I hope not to see myself placed outside
Outside the margins of social acceptance

But I guess is not a problem
My heart says you are socially flawless
It has always been so right
You marked a stamp on me
But I’m not stained

It took me a while to see you
Maybe at first I wasn’t look
But I assure you, most times when we look through a beautiful heart
We pretend not to see anything
Or rather we don’t talk about the things we saw

All I want is a hut where I can be myself
But it looks like I found a mansion
You are just so many in one
A friend, a care taker, a mother…
I gladly submit to your friendly care

Most of the time I take recourse to imaginative writing
Just because I may sound crazy if I speak out of my true mind
I’m just glad to meet you
I want to see through your own eyes
And beat through your own heart

Because you heard my silent screams
Lived in my thoughts
And breathe on my agony
Overly I feel just too good
To wake up with a good morning and dose off on a good night

Don’t mind the length of the piece
That’s how always it is when I speak from my private mind
Each line I’ve written so far makes me so excited
Don’t worry, I’m still normal and would always be normal
Don’t wonder why it took me no long to write this much

It is because I don’t have to think of what to write
They are already on my head
But I wonder why I have written so long
Without putting down the simplest words in my heart
Maybe I’m not sure or maybe I’m just scared

But it would be not fair, if I say not this
Many friends have crossed my path
And I thanks God for them
But I got a special extra blessing
When your friendship answered my call

Permit me to drop this pen
Anything I say from here on may be a risk
Maybe someday I will pick this very pen and continue from here
Because my instinct says there is much more to you than I know
Please walk me through the sunshine

Being so honest, I want to let you know
Right form my very heart, how much I’m thankful
For the wonderful friend you are
So I just wanted to say, in the most sincere way
Thank you for being my friend, today and everyday

FURIOUS


   PUSH ME NOT TO THE WALL

I endured you like the syringe needle
Please don’t press on me harder
It is now beating on me so hard and fast
I can hear the sound of its throbbing
Don’t push me further than I can go

My head is at the verge of blowing
And it will surely give out smoke if it does
I can bear you no more
I’m sorry if I had given up my patience
I’m just being a normal teen

I have giving in to the offer of revenge
I can’t afford to drown in this ocean of maltreatment
Of pain and misery, of torture and agony
I’m drunk with the wine of retaliation
And have waken the spirit of vengeance

My tolerance have reduced to degree zero
I feel so cold now
Try me one more time
And I will make it memorable for you
Be careful not to wake a sleeping beast

CONVINCED



Though I may float for sometimes
It ultimately leaves me more grounded
But I have the innocence
To move lightly with ignorance
And strongly with conviction

Innocence is so crucial
It freed me to learn
But just as importantly
It freed me to love
Though I may have to atone for sins I didn’t know I was committing

Still I come to feel a power I have never known
I have survived adversity with my honour intact
I faced my dark side and survived
But something more striking occurred
Though far from flawless, I’ve developed a stability that enhances my competence

I live my life as an example of decency
This didn’t happen by accident
I’m not really called to a job
It is a distraction that has little benefit
I am rather called to a life

A large portion of this life may involve a career
But there is more to it than just that
I am called to learn from the life experiences
Then I can use what I learnt in the service of decency
This is not for beginners, it just happen to be the first step

WANDERING SOUL



I was haunted like a wild beast
But I dared to reject my fate with my faith
And today I have honours through God’s grace
I thought I saw only the dark side of life

Life is hard but god is good
So I don’t have to cry
Because I became a genius
Born out of anguish

Wake I or sleep I
It is all Your responsibility
With You I can walk without watching where I’m going
I can speak without knowing what to say

But in selfishness I lost You all
I want a second grace
Please give me one more chance
There is no good reason why I shouldn’t trust You
You made me smile even when there is no fun
I failed because my finite nature didn’t understand your ways
Now I’m wrestling with my fears
I am haunted like a wild animal

I am in pain, but I will survive if you stand by me
Please look on me through the broken sky
This weight upon my shoulder is much
I need your helping hand

I’m scared,
I have gone far from you
I seem to belong nowhere
Please lead me back home

I know I’m lost
But I don’t believe it
I know you will always come by
Please don’t forsake me this one time
