Drudgery of life

 

Is it only me that feels dead?

I no longer smile when I feel the morning breeze

When the sun washes over me, neither can I feel the warmth

All I felt was nothingness

Stuck in the drudgery of daily mundane chores

Thinking there should be something more than what I’m living now

 

I want to feel alive

Not to just exist

To go where life takes me

Even if it’s an unknown path

At least it will be a path I’ve traveled, see and learned

Knowing I have lived

Fireworks

Fireworks

I’ve never seen any man not touched by fireworks

It brings forth a myriad of feelings to everyone watching it

The display of dancing lights in the night sky

Against the backdrop of the endless horizon of the sea

Shimmering like fairy dusts, showering its magic

Making one full of yearning when it twinkle away

Running down the cold highway

Running down the never ending highway

With the cold wind blowing into my face

Making me feel like the only person in the universe

Blowing memories back into my head

Bittersweet memories

That made me pound harder into the road

Running fast

To find a place

Where I belong

My limbo

I thought I was dead

Weightless and numb

Everything seems to be void of colors

My five senses were not working

Then I heard a sound, faint but steady

Growing louder every second

I look around

Wondering

Then I realize,

It was within me

My heart was beating

Reminding me that I’m alive

Slowly filling me with reminders

Of love and hopes

I’m Alive

Fool

 

A fool is what people call me

But I don’t want to be a fool

Yet I’m always a fool for you

I’m happy being a fool for you

Is being happy foolish

Or maybe I’m not a fool after all

 

Oblige

Do not feel oblige to me

For you owe me nothing

Do not be oblige to do things for me

For I too do not want to be indebted to you

We are not bound together

By any promises or lies

For I have not obligated myself by accepting any of them from you
