Lystra Siew Poem
I used to walk in a world beyond my heart with you
Rainbows had no colors,
The flowers had no scents
And
The rain fell but wasn't felt
I used to walk in a world
Where
I was numb from everything that existed beyond you...
The birds would sing without sounds
The air would blow pass me
And
I felt nothing...
My senses rendered useless by the emotions you stirred within me
I used to walk in a world where light surrounded me but didn't exist in reality
I existed in a world of my own fantastical making
Taken birth from the depths of my freedom with you
And
I always believed
That I would be forever mesmerized by that euphoric intoxication that was YOU...!!!

Lystra Siew Poem
There were days
When melancholy would reign in our hearts, until the weekend arrived
And
I couldn't wait to reach the end of my journey to be greeted by those bright eyes
And
Your warm smile that would completely render me defenseless
And
That kiss that not only stole my heart each time
But
Stole my breathe without effort...
Those were the days when I could not imagine that happiness
And
The emotion of love could be so effortless

Lystra Siew Poem
She walks on clouds;
That cushions her gentle nature
She cries openly in the rain;
So that the world doesn’t notice her pain
She hides in the dark;
So that everyone becomes neglectful of her existence
She smiles brightly, even when sadness looms deeply within her
She stares out at world, behind closed windows
Just to witness the love that she yearns for
Sometimes the sadness in her heart is the only comfort she knows
And she allows herself to get lost in its depths….

Lystra Siew Poem
In the darkness of mind I hide in the room of my despair
With no way to run for salvation
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
because I am powerless against my fear
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
for tomorrow comes with so many uncertainty
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
I scream but no one hears me
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
and the world passes by without noticing my existence
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
and long for the savior that never comes
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
just existing because I never learned how to live!
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
because my demons refuse to allow me to be free
In the darkness of my mind I hide in the room of my despair
I disappear because no one hears or sees me
and my existence becomes no more
my voice fades with the mourning of the wind
and my smile withers like the light with night creeping slowly as the day comes to an end...
Slowly I loose my humanity, I no longer am the me I use to be all because the burden of the unsaid emotion
Has corroded the woman I used to be!

Lystra Siew Poem
There exists a trickle of sadness at the back of my mind
It reminds me of ,
A broken heart not yet healed,
Of unachieved ambitions
And unheard expressions of love that got lost in silence
It permeates throughout my mind and body like a rapid wild fire consuming all in its path
Strangely in the midst of all this chaos it grants me an unexpected peace
One that has selfishly allowed me to loose myself in its dark solitude

Lystra Siew Poem
Sadness overwhelms me
It permeates from within and invading my entire being
I am constantly reminded of the heartaches that haunts me
As much as I want to escape this reality, I can't!
My pain now badges of scares
That reminds me constantly of the lingering sadness that dwells in me
I am no longer whole
For those who I have allowed into my world
Quietly stole pieces of me that I may never be able to retrieve to complete my soul again...

Lystra Siew Poem
Staring out into the distance of the horizon,
I long for the warmth of companionship.
Staring out into the distance of the horizon,
I long for the heart wrenching emotions of having another by my side.
Staring out into the distance of the horizon,
I long for the touch of mystery that makes my heart race.
Staring out into the distance of the horizon,
I long to belong to one that deserves me.
Staring out into the distance of the horizon,
I long to feel and experience so many things that may never be.
I have spent so many years by myself that I have forgotten the feeling of being a plus one.
Or how it feels to have your hands held and to be locked in a passionate embrace.
I have never long for these things before until now.
Looking back I realized how fast life has pass me by and how lonely being lonely can be!
