Laugh, make the world laugh with you; Weep, you'd better off weeping alone, loud and proud, such aloneness is a gift. Love, let the words of the heart speak for you; Hate, may you find the rare courage to forgive, succeed or fail, fight your own dragon battles. When weary, don't shoulder the burden of… Continue reading Life Lessons

The Greatest Love of My Life
Along with our madness and wild flowers, there comes the strangest kind of silence, spraying every fiber of the beings and non-beings, calling for more.... I’d love to be the voice of a soprano singer, so I can move through all borders and see them vanish with every spell-binding note. I'd love to be the… Continue reading The Greatest Love of My Life
Meaningful
I made myself a cupful warm lavender latte, sit on futon tatami while watching wild deers grazing, at the heart of this neon city, packed by savvy faces and sophisticated converse, I’ve remained a passenger dwelling in nature’s prose. Nothing in my life is about lucky, Nothing in my story is about pretty. And despite… Continue reading Meaningful
A Beautiful Life
Taking in this moment, Let go of some sentiment, Look gleefully with the innocent eyes of a perky bird, Breathe gently with the calming scents of a verdant oak, Play freely with the fun-loving presence of a racy child, Bloom proudly with the sun-loving radiance of a zesty dahlia. And most importantly, remember who you… Continue reading A Beautiful Life
May Be
How solitary and resolute I look these days, A stoic gaze simplifies my bewildered face. solitary, but not stagnant, As the early warmth of sunlight gladly comforts magenta rose, Languorous morning reabsorbs into a lambent priori of muse. Rain or shine, The strings of my violin remain dutifully hanging, not the lamenting wires of a… Continue reading May Be
Do You?
I can feel you, when I watch the sunlight glimmer, over the sea, when the moonbeams shimmer, over the stream. I can hear you, when the dust swirls high with a traveler passes by, when the nightingale sings with a lovely tilted eye. Strolling with my veiled steps, Into the twilight’s bright path, Echoed within thousands… Continue reading Do You?
A Love Mission
At last, the creator speaks: My child, To recognise happiness you must first suffer, To understand humanity you must first stagger, To acquire compassion you must first in tear, To encourage bravery you must first meet tiger, Then we will see you climb this magic ladder, to embrace your eternal lover, and spread your lights… Continue reading A Love Mission
A Vision in Evanescence
In my restless dreams I walked alone, through empty halls to the golden woods where autumn bloom. Beneath the grey icy water, I saw a vision glitter, then my reflection dissolved, into million particles of neon lights, lit up the diamond sky while you tenderly sighed. There I came flying, to the faraway kingdom with… Continue reading A Vision in Evanescence
The Infamous Coup
It's done, I left. And, disinherited. They sworn I'd be left on my own, So tell me, Good Lords, Have I ever not been on my own? I am weary of the living, Weary of the long, blind struggle; I am weary of the trusting, Where my trusts but torments prove; Weary of the dimly… Continue reading The Infamous Coup
I Believe In Me
Happiness..... Not in another place, but this place; Not for another hour, but this hour; Not in sweet heaven, but this bitter earth; Not desired by stars, but this weary heart. We have wasted so much life, worried about future, dwell on past, afraid of a true self, fear of the collective. We want love,… Continue reading I Believe In Me
Motherland, A Sorrow Home
Hijacked by Fate, she brought me there. I was sired and weaned in a Motherland, where I was not suppose to be, where a new identity was given, and where a wronged story began..... In a tropic world, ruled by year-round sultry summers and visited often by typhoon and storms, I knew the palm trees… Continue reading Motherland, A Sorrow Home
The Portrait of A Woman
She could be any woman at all, Somedays off-guard, all days on-guard. With her hands stroking or strangling and maybe with her intentions half-hidden. But she is as she is. Her gaze is always Distant away from its pupil, And what she's really after is you to love her. She reflects who she is. She could… Continue reading The Portrait of A Woman
Youth, Still?
Between wheat-field and corn, Between hedgerow and thorn, Between tundra and savannah, Where’s my lost youth? Tell it me, Good Madams! And now within itself the truth’s imprisoned As if it had never opened out: unknown Those blessed moments, when it shone As bright as the angelic galaxy lovingly shown And remorse, reproach, and irritation, frown… Continue reading Youth, Still?
The Answer To Your Question
The desire you burn, that never acted upon, Is called Daydreaming . The love you harbor, that never chased after, Is called Unrequiting . The answer to your question, that you never asked, Is always NO . Final note: These was my grandpa’s favorite lines, which he quoted himself. 😀🥳 And it looks like all… Continue reading The Answer To Your Question
Pleasant Fate
Sometimes human life seems a pleasant fate: The day so sweet, the night so great! And, in that enchanted Paradise, settle down, We’ve scarce begun to admire the heavenly sun, So Charming, like that of psychedelic baroque, Sucked me into its brilliant ray. . Till, When the sun leads to sunburn, Love leads to “will… Continue reading Pleasant Fate
Accomplishment
Fear, Still brewing inside, Fermenting the mirage of augmented reality, If I must tell the truth. . But I am relieved . Fear, This time, I call out your name, I see your face, We won’t play hide and seek . No doubt, It’s an accomplishment. I know the end is near. . . .… Continue reading Accomplishment
