Much Unlike Me


When I so look back upon my past life, 
How awful experience helps me being tough
To cope with strange vibes cum uneasy strife... 
Just like an impossible dream so rough. 

I look forward to making a promise;
So useless to reasoning as of moment-
Reminiscing can't help but tag Thomas: 
Of bruises, scars and fright's concomitant

That appears funny enough to believe, 
But do not have the chance to aid proofs' votes 
Or most bluntly, dates imprints to retrieve... 
When none of memories are handy in notes. 

The distance of truth to lie is being you, 
Yet as wide as living off interest's shows... 
Because life looks dangerous to handle new, 
Makes such distance as close as a repose.
