At 3:00 Am

Still awake at 3 am
Listening to a mellow song
Waiting for the sun to rise
Holding back the tears in my eyes

Still up at 3 am
Doing some flashback
What happened to us
A love that I fully trust

Still sleepless at 3 am
"It's not you it's me" your voice still echoing
My heart was ripped in thousand pieces
And seems was drop into different places

Still not in bed at 3 am
Holding a bottle of beer
Wishing it can help me heal
Hoping it can erase what I feel

Still wide awake at 3 am
Maybe it just don't fit right at all
Waiting for the sun to rise for me to traces
To start anew and pick up... my broken heart pieces...

Crossroads Wisdom

On earth, how to cleanse our soul
To make the cloth of reputation white
At most we can only achieve this goal
When filled the neighbors mind with lies

What we are, at most hidden
Will never let them see
We tricked our neighbor to believe in
On what we seem to be

Of every man who tell the world
That they've found the hills of truth
Can't climb with them, my feet to their wisdom hurled
Simply I've learned a lot from my youth

Can we cast away the sins
On human claimed holy words
Or just we hide unto the book
To cover our shame on this world

Judas Iscariot Mystery

Why, Judas why?
Your kissed became the treachery symbol
Sold your faith but hanged yourself and die
After you returned that thirty pieces of silver

Why, Judas why?
Might you have a big crisis for money?
A sick parent or child, perhaps
To cure their pain, but 'twas cut in the story

You returned the dazzling silver
Might they've never fulfilled their promise
To never hurt your master
That's why you weep unto your best

Why, Judas why
If the tree and the rope could talk, they'll never lie
Might you've kissed the image of your master in the wind
Before you bid the world goodbye

Life Must Go On

There was this season for many reason
A failed ambition or bad decision
Too much subtraction, no single addition
Pictures of low resolution, everything in demotion
But surely... Life must go on...

Days of self damnation because of wrong position
Flowers  that need attention for admiration
Head that was full of delusions that needs calibration
Victims of disqualification without any consolation
But definitely... Life must go on...

Minutes of demoralization, hours of depression
Roads of devastation no clear relocation
Eyes shed in repetition because of hard reason
Goodbyes to all special persons for their final destination
But simply.... Life must go on.....

The Lost Sheep

I was a lost sheep
I hope my shepherd will find me
Walking with a relentless weep
Dressed in blue, hoping He'll see me

I am a wandering sheep
Traveled into innumerable hills
With wound that so deep
That doctors cannot heal

I am a worried sheep
Though studied carefully to learned
Between heaven and earth I stepped
Looking for brilliance to enlighten my lantern

I am the symbol of most here on earth
Sheep that looking for serenity, before we board into our coffin
Confused of many pretentious being, promising to fill our dearth
Hopefully, before I fly into the sun, the true shepherd will find me...

The Poor Shoe

Looking for another acting award
An actor asked one poor what his shoe looks like
The unfortunate caught off guard
But he smiled, then answered with no fright

Well, today it doesn't look so well
You see I don't wear it now
Looping sun and rain hurt it like hell
But it is tough and survive somehow

It stands tall against the mighty storm
I really appreciate its endurance
But as time goes by, its look deformed
I don't know if it can take another resistance

So here I am now walking on the street barefooted
But may I ask you sir, why are you asking for my shoe
You see I can't buy one, my pocket is so wounded
Hence believe me about my footwear, it's all true

Looking for another acting award
An actor asked one poor what his shoe looks like
Now he got the best trophy reward
A teary eye, a lesson that deeply strikes


Written: 9/17/2015
An actor may claim that they know what's the poor shoe looks like
Little they know that some aren't wearing one...

Words of Wisdom

Don't be my child, don't step on broken glasses

Don't be fooled by all of those sweet promises

I've been through a lot of regrets

Memories that I love to bury and simply forget



Treasure my child, my words of wisdom

I have a lot of story to tell, when I enter the kings kingdom

Wounded by those pitiless pawns, knights and bishops

Terrorized by rook and the queen killed all of my hopes



Listen well, don't act so stupid my innocent child

The world is full of jungle and really so wild

I was bitten by spiders, lions and snakes

To recall what i've been through still make my body shakes



My child, look at all my deep scars

Think thrice always, don't fully rush to reach the stars

Or else you'll wished upon it, to bring you back to where you start

Coz you have lead your life to a maze and welcome the dark



My dear sage, all your words are of true wisdom

But let me take my own course of freedom

I may feel the deepest sorrow like hell

But at the end like you, I will have a great story to tell

Skin Colors

Dark sympathizes with the night
The light understands what's with the day
Colors labeled what's on left and right
Giving reason to who'll go and stay

Simply justice that was out of sight
Don't know that day and night are made of clay
That grays are whites
And whites are grays

Skin colors supposed to be no height
Something we have to weigh
But why with it we've learned to spiked
And distance our hearts some miles away

So what's the beauty of that site
Let us all hope that there'll be a place one day
Where grays are whites
And whites are grays

Black Emotional Lullaby

Tears flow plays in unison
With a black emotional lullaby

A mesmerizing dream turns cold
The promises swallowed with venom
Great pain of heart to head crawled
Till the enchanted voices heard are of demons

Come with us my dear
And we will give you rest
Someone love you here
Let it ended for your best

Tears flow plays in unison
With a black emotional lullaby
The silvery blade turns crimson
From a body whose soul just wanted to fly

People are crying, still asking why oh why 
Marching while listening to the same black emotional lullaby  
Said then you are okay but 'twas all a lie
Now, you are a lonely soul who's so afraid to face the sky 

Tears flow plays in unison
With a black emotional lullaby

Simply Poems Are

Upon the kiss of paper and quill
The pregnancy of emotions
Words into the ocean sail
Born a poem so true with dedication

Happiness and loneliness collides
All pains are there, those love too
Colors of smile and  grimace, put on words to survive
Stories of white and blue

Poems are unpolished stones, looking for a friend
When it chilled someone to the bone
Then stones turns to a lovely gems
And finally to the readers heart, poems found a home....
