Saving Teardrops

It was not to be, 
The past is gone; 
It marched on a route, 
Today is the school; 
Where you are sagacious... 

She enticed your future, 
Whipping as the bells of hope; 
She sentenced your life, 
Willingly you hither followed; 
You should be wise... 

The world once sweet is sour, 
Concur by force to trek on; 
Tea cold hot, sugar or not; 
The ocean cries, yet keeps calm; 
Save your tears and move on....

Inversed Live

I walked with thoughts in reverse; 
Bairn of old suffered feat; 
Dancing consciously as lunatics; 
Made my pace run from me; 
Then everything looked evil... 

I smiled with thoughts in reverse; 
Moments to cherish in bitterness; 
With so much love for the pen; 
The past taught about me; 
Then everything looked evil... 

I dreamed with thoughts in reverse; 
Super human from a dead planet; 
Heavy as crane, wings of an 
airplane; 
Trudging on a seeming ground; 
Then everything looked evil... 

I awoke with thoughts in reverse; 
Super human from a dead planet? 
Moments to cherish in bitterness? 
Bairn of old suffered feat? 
Truly, everything looked evil!

Secrets Beneath Sands

Seemingly mystified presence; 
Beholds every treks atop; 
Blase art thee, earth born; 
Stepping unchalantly o'er; 
Bias thereupon my worth. 

Traditional emblem certain; 
Upon thee a carnal knowledge; 
Restored o'er me by strength; 
Unity of earth and sea; 
pillared faith of existence. 

Hence the merry rings; 
Patiently waiting in vials; 
Sands and sand becomes one; 
Grooms kissed brides; 
My unifying existence. 

Turbulence comes with peace; 
A reminder against disorder; 
In deserts my dessert; 
Every chaos for ignorance; 
As I depart with the storms.
