Sealing Fates

2009-03-15T02:27:00.000-07:00

Breath by breath,
Step by step,
Walking into the light
Unknowing of what future may bring.
A warm grasp,
That guided her path,
The first man she ever loved,
Would leave her,
in the loving care of another.

Pachelbel’s silent intonations,
Sweetly whisper,
The thought of everlasting true love.
Along with the sound of an ode to joy.
Danced did the rose petals,
To the Ritornello,
As they slowly weave through the air,
With enthusiasm

She reached her destination,
A place her heart had been searching for,
He is her life,
He is always there.
She knew his words,
were the truth.
She will not deny him,
The coming days,
Where they could grow old together.

The closing scene of lovers sealing their fates,
With a single kiss,
A kiss that would last through the aging period of time.

Love’s Visage

2009-03-12T01:24:00.000-07:00

Her tousled hair
Swayed in rhythm
With the palm trees of high,
The sand played between her toes,
As the tide begins to hide.

Her visage,
a hinder to the brilliance of the setting sun.
no man,
was worthy of her love,
for it belongs to only one.

He’s departure,
After the epilogue,
Left her in tears and denial,
She forever trapped in that
Shell of resentment.

The Potter

2009-03-11T23:51:00.001-07:00

Slowly,
Steadily,
He glides his hands,
Up her tiny waist.
The wheel of life begins.

Her petite figure,
Her manner of disposition,
Seem to be have leapt forth from his wildest fantasies.
A sip of wine,
As the gentle music played by chimes,
Kept him safe in the arms of sanity.

His love grew as his moves,
His understanding of her continues,
He finally adorns her in the midst of fire,
Glazed,
And for many every days,
his beauty illuminated under the full moon’s light.

Paradise Lost

2006-06-30T04:46:00.000-07:00

Oh, the sweet summer’s gone,
Away, away, no more budding beauties,
Their guardian’s dancing no more,
The Crystal Lake, an endless labyrinth,
Cast that evil wind off!

For the lady in red slowly fades off.
Life spent, harbours pain inside,
Breathe, breathe, and lost the next moment…
The heart shatters, shredded wings,
Ruby fragments, the end of all things,
Paradise lost, ambrosia eaten,
Echo’s last song, like mine,
Will be forgotten.

Only Hope

2006-06-30T04:32:00.000-07:00

The lone star emits a dim light,
Amongst the endless blue,
The moon has lost her beauty,
And had gone to weep at the lagoon,
The cloud disappeared,
The sun refused to rise,
All our hopes pinned,
on that one star that held the sky.

Atlas gave up,
Mountains crumbled away,
Enyo wept a thousand tears,
Rivers flooded, temples fell,
Not one hero brave enough,
None but that lone star.

Old Romances

2006-06-30T04:26:00.000-07:00

Old romances
Haunts the new ones,
Would she be hurt?
Will she still trust thy beloved one?

Nightmares galloped through her dreams,
They stopped, fiery eyes glared with emptiness,
Frightened and bewildered
She tried to find his arms,
Instead,
She ran into a giant field of no ones.

Candles kindled the whole room,
Nothing to be seen,
But, a table and
a picture of a General groom.

She tried to contain,
The pain from her flame,
She tried to resist,
But tear came pouring in.

Gone, Gone,
Forever lost.
End, End,
Love’s departure,
A sad tragedy.

Chérir les moments; A tribute to Ms Khoo Peck Sim

2006-06-30T04:24:00.000-07:00

The little details you leave,
“Remember…” told to us,
Annoying brats are we,
Undeserving of your imparted skills,
Unappreciative, how immature are we.
‘Désolé ’

So much for the time,
That is about to come,
For you to retire,
We would also remember,
The kind things you did.
‘Chérir les moments’
Yes, we sure will.

We love you.

French:
‘Désolé ’: Sorry
‘Chérir les moments’: Cherish the moments

My Favorite Hat

2006-04-03T03:52:00.000-07:00

Nostalgia sends tears to our eyes,
Those were the days,
When silence consumes us,
We cried, we hugged, we feared,
But smiles of assurance affirmed our disillusion
The gate flooded with tears,
A tap runs wild,
We said goodbye,
Never to think,
That we would ever see her again.
Until one day,
She came back,
Smiles returned,
Crying starts again,
That was how I got my straw hat,
From the best ever friend.

Up in the sky

2006-04-03T03:45:00.000-07:00

Up in the sky,
Two champagne glasses,
Half filled with red wine,
Sun sets before their very eyes,
What a romantic setting,
Even fishes would sigh,

One night to remember,
No way to forget,
The petal of roses,
So soft and burning
With flair,
Though a few more hours,
And the night is gone,
This lovely scene would replay itself,
Like a never-ending song.

The Conqueror

2006-02-15T05:02:00.000-08:00

Our love distants like
The little island blue,
Cast away from the others,
Like a strike from Zeus
Even fishes scatter once near
The doomed shore
Lovers never ventured
There before,
If we were to step on this accursed shore,
Will our passion turn into
Nothing but a thunderstorm?
I believe, nothing,
That only true love
Conquers all

Flower that bloomed on wretched soil...

2006-01-01T03:36:00.001-08:00

What flower blooms ever so beautifully,
Upon wretched looking soil.
Thy sweet scent brought forth by many afar,
To see this light against the dark.
With such petals of tender softness,
And a stalk of great strength,
Nothing can stop ye love,
Even if to suffer

If thy love is ever so strong,
Hold me close to thy heart,
If emotions stumble and fall,
Weaknesses shown in thy love
Please forget thee

The Waltz

2006-01-01T03:36:00.000-08:00

Each step brought forth new dreams,
Our hands took position,
And our feet starts moving-
Along,
With the sweet sounding melodies.

The night slowly advances,
As thought time has stopped;
Her magic.
Two souls entwined as one
Dancing to a single beat.

Romance between the
Butterflies and exotic lilies,
Sends tenderness through -
the mysterious breeze.

How I wish that
the waltz
Im dancing with thee
Wouldnt stop for the
Next century

Until you spread your wings...

2006-01-01T03:32:00.001-08:00

Until you spread your wings,
You ll have no idea how far you can fly.
To the ends of this earth, what awaits me?
Perhaps the thought of true love seems like an illusion,
Maybe, I should dread the thought of it
For it might bring great hurt
to me
Fairytales, I wish of coming true
Just slashes off when-
Reality steps in
All I can depend on,
Is thy wing,
How far, how high,
I can go,
Is entirely to thee
Love is all I need,
Even if my physical being is dying

HER

2006-01-01T03:32:00.000-08:00

Her beauty proceeds what many might say,
Her songs are as sweet as any summer day,
Her hair brings the scent of newly bloomed lilies,
As it flows unendingly to her saintly feet.
Flowers bowed as she walked by,
Children stopped to gaze in her eyes,
People gasp at this unearthly sight...

A Little Twist

2006-01-01T03:31:00.000-08:00

A broken shell on the beach,
Ready to be embedded and ditched,
The owner has got eaten by a fish,
OH! But what poor little thing!
Along came a petite miss,
Holding on to a tiny dish,
In the end,
The shell felt relieved,
For thats a poem with a twist.

The Moment Before I Recieve My (Literature) Marks

2006-01-01T03:30:00.000-08:00

Tension arises,
She puts down the papers,
In her eyes,
A gleam of wonder.

Waited long, have we,
Till this day it comes,
The wonder in her eyes,
We feared

How hard we ve studied,
How hard we ve tried,
No matter whats the marks,
We cannot deny.

Alas,
This should be put behind,
for dwelling in thy mistakes
is something we shouldnt
remind

The only thing I can do,
Is nothing but wait,
Wait,
For what good or bad it is
To come

Till We Meet Again...

2006-01-01T03:29:00.000-08:00

The winds blew,
My cries ceased,
Many souls flew,
But my heart,
Flees

The time passes slowly,
As though,
You were long gone,
Never thought you would leave,
Like this,
So, innocently strong.

I will never let go,
So let our love,
Be painted with gold.
No matter where ye goes,
I shall follow.

O' Lady Breeze

2006-01-01T03:28:00.000-08:00

Is it you, o lady breeze,
Playing on a giant leaf
Prancing and dancing so gracefully,
How I wish that Im with thee

Playing and dancing all day long
How I wish that this wont stop
But sadly she faded off
And left me wondering when to stop

I woke up with a jerk at dawn,
Realized that Im in the lawn,
Playing back on my fantasy dream,
Now I know who lady breeze is

The Man On A Mission

2006-01-01T03:26:00.000-08:00

A great man on a mission,
To save us from damnation,
Like a shepard leading his sheep,
Over the bridges of troubled water.

His bitter fight of many ails,
Didnt stop him from The Will,
His thoughts as a lowly servant of God,
Our opinion as an affectionate father to all.

Though his time has ended here,
And we know hes there in heaven,
His story will be taught though generations -
Of his tranquility and compassion

Last but not least,
Rejoice!
Again I say,
Rejoice!
