in the middle of the night
your name haunts me back
an echo from a distance
but no sound has cracked
i wish i could reach out to you
and say come to me
at dawn i lie half awake
yet half of my heart is with you
in the midst of cold days
the thought of you keeps me warm
when i stare at the sun in an afterglow
i wander about you so much
hoping you remember that token
and kept it inside your pocket heart
cause i have been keeping you here
at a sacred place to worship love
i know my memory fails me a lot
but my heart never forgets you
my life is a book of frantic rides
and you entered in the early chapters
became idle after for few pages
but please understand you're here
always present behind these leaves
and the muse behind these words
the inkwell for this timid quill.

to be struck on a deceiving smile
is like playing with ceaseless fire
you will burn yourself for a while
and eventually you'll just get tired
you may cleverly master the game
but the player you can never tame
you might then change your lanes
and you'll have yourself to blame
never bet on an unwinnable fight
not all battlefield rules are alike
getting lost in a sparkler's light
find yourself in a maze walking blind
another Darcy to this wild Bennet
or maybe an Austen in the making
sad is the fate of Hallward isn't it?
from painting the portrait of Gray
but time weathers different stones
when you leave or love them alone
fate is something no one has known
what you want one day you may own.

i have said it once and twice
knowing me was rolling a dice
a chess game of changing rules
no one dared to play it cool
i have said it thrice and more
knowing you was rose with no thorns
a crossbow hit by William Tell
heart-shaped apple shot so well
I am saying this now and never
Knowing us was enchanted river
but i'm the dark side of the moon
looking forward to see you soon.

Been considerate to people
Who are inconsiderate of me
Life has never been this tough
And the fight is never easy.

Holding a sliver piece of hope
Hoping to keep these legs running
As I wage underwater alone
And remain myself from drowning.

Inside a minute box I dwell
With tight walls and compact edges
Gasping for air and so unwell
Suffocated from false wishes.

Walking slowly on my tiptoes
On an ice sheet glass-like floor
Along with all my dead heroes
Reaching out for that frozen door.

Inside me I hear a loud scream
A call for help I never called
I'd turn this nightmare into a dream
Hopeful for happiness when I'm old.

i am staring at this blank canvas

should i draw or write anything

the fire’s no longer warm as it was

when you took what i always bring.

lines and shades dont blot on paper

ideas had gone to far and dark places

no more words, rhymes, and letters

pencils and pens write none but spaces.

i was the fireplace on a winter night

you took the matches away with you

before you could even give me light

and left me alone, so cold and blue.

once a painter of hands and pockets

colored on canvas a head and heels

left with a broken heart and palette

when you took your name out your sleeves.

i am staring at this blank canvas

should i draw or write anything

i hope the fire will be warm as it was

and always bring just good dreams.

I am sure you have never met

A girl so thin but is so strong

Her attitude you might not get

And not easy to get along.

Loves to cut her hair as short as

It could be – V-cut or pixie –

Likes hair clips, head bands or hair pins

Has short hair but still she’s lovely.

Says no to make up and lipsticks

Not even to powders nor cream

May not be as pretty and as chic

But could be the girl of your dreams.

A budding poet and writer

Loves to write poems about love

With words that can take you higher

To the sky up, up and above.

God forbid! She’s scared of insects

Top spot are cockroaches, ants’nd bees

Afraid of blood-sucking leeches

And just all the creepy crawlies.

She’s a fan of Marvel Comics

Iron Man, the Hawkeye and Thor

Captain’s shield and Black Widow’s kicks

And the Incredible Hulk’s anger.

She’s not fond of drinking coffee

But drinks wine, whiskey, even beer

Loves milk in the morning, not tea

Would even give you a loud “Cheers!”.

She’s as authentic as Levis

The most frank person you would meet

Screams fairness, justice with no lies

A girl that is so hard to beat.

Determined, focused, resilient

She is a female of power

Indeed can’t be broken just bent

And she’s such a loving lover.

Don’t judge a book by its title

Not even a phone by its brand

She’s as fragile as the bubble

But as magical as the wand.

She just wanted to be better

In freedom, she had never been

But still there is joy within her

Hidden by the name of Ailyn.#

I just felt in love and never defined it
An indescribable and alien feeling
It was an oasis of troubled waters
Avalanche I can never escape with
But it was paradise to my eyes
Graceful hurricane of lies
Captured by my lens as truth
A nightmare that was a daydream
Stab on the back that felt like hug
Arrow shot deep to my heart
Or shotgun that wounded it
In my sight it was beautiful
So unpredictable like magic
Or was it all an illusion
In bed of thorns I thought were roses
I lay in your rogue realm inside the room
In calm waves and singing breeze
I thought I enjoyed with you
Turned out to be tidal waves
Of your raging tricks and mirage
A death day on Christmas
A white dwarf in the galaxy
All I envisioned as charm and beauty
And when I started to burn
From what has to be warm
Left from what has to stay
Lost from who I should be kept
Took advantage of my vulnerability
I had a sudden change of view
I was in hell of what I thought was heaven
That was why I burned when you’re around
Alive but you pushed me to the ground
Like a paper heart you tore me
In each pace I stepped and moved away
And never knew how to move on
A path less taken I have taken
With all the promises I withdrawn
You went with the rhymes you stole
I ran last with the last word
Fixing the hole from this whole
I want to end with rhyme and closure
In clear vision and straight path
Making myself even ever better
Surviving from the storm and wrath
Young love comes with old problems

Fresh wounds take time to scar
Blow the candles for our wishes
We appreciate love so much after the war.

hi.
i know it has been rough.
things get so tough.
and here i am.
staring at this note.
tell me what should i write
when you took the pen
with you as you go.
i was lost for words
february when you came
now i think i am lost
march silently screaming your name.
hi.
i thought that was genuine.
you sent me a photo
with your younger sibling in smiles
you seem real
so real yet surreal.
should i paint it in this white canvas
or leave this as it is
cause nothing has to be drawn anyway
you took the pallette with you.
hi.
i would like to ask you something
why did you disappear like that
you went so quick like a blink
has life been good to you
cause it has never been for me
after you left.
guess you carry the goodness alone.
hi.
do you ever wander about me
cause you're here
in the back of my mind
in the middle of the night it is you
who keeps me awake or asleep
staring at your name in the chatbox
when will you come again.
hi.
i hope you remember me
and the things we talked about
in that short-lived romance
cause the pain here is beating
so fast like a drum
a guitar that was never strummed
like a broken record in this broken heart
a song plays in my head in replay
the first few words you asked me,
"kadumdum naka?".
hi.
i hope you say hi.

in the middle of the night
your name haunts me back
an echo from a distance
but no sound has cracked
i wish i could reach out to you
and say come to me
at dawn i lie half awake
yet half of my heart is with you
in the midst of cold days
the thought of you keeps me warm
when i stare at the sun in an afterglow
i wander about you so much
hoping you remember that photo
i was in the car wearing that black blouse
i pray you keep my sixth grade gift
cause i have been keeping you here
at a place inside of my heart
i know my memory fails me a lot
but my heart never forgets you
my life is a book of rides
and you entered in the early chapters
became idle after for few pages
but please understand you're here
always present behind these leaves

scared
you ran away
said you don't want
anything tied with your hands
broken
in a bench
looking at buildings
staring at parking lots below
unpredictable
one day you come 
next you are nowhere
where should i stand myself
guessing
you handed me
your hand so i'd draw
redecorate the paradise in my view
leaves
you are and you do
fell and then fell apart
on a summertime with you.
