Through My Writing

Much cluster in my brain

Which is really so fragile

That I write to be serene

Getting rid of thoughts

Positive or negative

They need to be saved

Rather not in memory

To prevent craziness

Due to the huge volume

But on paper instead

For authenticity matters

Expressing the moments

Based on true feelings

That will not get confused

Nor misinterpreted anyhow

While printed in hard copy

The message is very clear

It will never get lost soon

Because even whenever I die

I shall remain alive forever

Through my writing

The Octopus

When she was young, she used to hang out without a hand out in a shell she had found to hide

in from predators out there to cease her precious life. Now she has grown older, she became

one of them and does the hunting. I got captured in the razor sharp of this octopus by surprise

after being surrounded by her tentacles full of suckers to satisfy her three hearts without

knowing what my fate would be. She has surely changed and does not fear no more nor does

she care about anybody else’s life. Ignorant of her actions, she hugs me with her eight arms

prior to inject me with her poison known to be a deadly venom. Initially, I thought it was out of

love before I knew she was up to no good at all. She defies her parental history, today she

has a conscience of her own. As any cephalopod, she uses her big head a lot. It helps her

move waving in the deep waters and digest the food due to its emptiness. Don’t take me

wrong though, I’ve seen her in action! While swimming, she extends her long flexible arms in

search of greens, seeds and I don’t know what else. However, she’s generally after wallets

and manhoods. She thinks I’m an easy prey to feed on that she comes after the only heart

I’ve got. Although she forces me, the bottom line is: I can’t love her if I have to be chased

around or be devoured by the viscous undersea creature immensely vicious whom she truely is.

People have tried to catch her but when trapped, she always finds a way to flee for an escape,

therefore beware!

Inspired

Inspiration is all over in the air as long as I still see and hear;

I'm inspired every time I breathe;

Inspiration is here and there if I can listen and stay focus;

I'm inspired by each heart beat;

Inspiration plagerizes nature and environment in their being;

I'm inspired till life is no longer mine;

Termites

My day is over so I head home.

Normally I'll drive; however, sometimes I take the roller-coaster.


Once there, I try to get in the house and as I touch the knob it sounds like it hasn't been greased in a long, long time.

It's the playground of too many kids which implies it is filled with lots of unknown and rare bacteria.

I feel I need to wear gloves for protection and even if I take them out of a brand new package, I still check thoroughly before usage in case there are some holes.

It is not easy to open the door, the hinges are incredibly rusty due to time and apparently a load is obstructing the entrance.

I lube all areas, then I put my fingers through the crack to let me push.

While I do, it fails to resist against the strength of this muscle.

It falls inside absorbing the shock and, here I follow.

Attempting to move in, I meticulously avoid debris walking tiptoe from left to right or front to back, zigzagging pretty much.

On my way to the showers, I remove the things blocking it prior to sweat one more time.

Intensely enjoying the sensation of the water on my skin; the pipeline that is defective starts releasing a yellowish fluid instead of the regular pure and clear liquid.

Observing this, I fear and something tells me to check the plumbing and the whole building.

After I couldn't see everything with my naked eyes, I called on specialists to examine it inch by inch.

Surprisingly, termites have been chewing on the whole foundation for over two hundred years which means it was too late.

The funny thing, I had no insurance to cover the loss incurred and when I bought it, it looked so beautiful from the outside.

Although, it was all a simple camouflage thus an artistic decor full of really impressive ornaments.

The previous owner is no longer around, I heard he had travelled to a far foreign country.

Now, I'm on the streets with no one to blame nor anyone to make pay.

The only option left is to go try finding this man to see whether where he currently lives is a better place.

If it's worse than being homeless or my situation, I'll damn these tiny bugs.

A Woman's Drama

I try smiling to guys but when I wake up and look in the mirror;

OMG, I'm ugly;

I try dieting to look good but when I wake up and look in the mirror;

OMG, I'm fat;

I try enjoying life fully but when I wake up and look in the mirror;

OMG, I'm pregnant;

I try listening to wolves in sheep skins but when I wake up and look in the mirror;

OMG, I'm naive.

I try loving those I can't trust but when I wake up and look in the mirror;

OMG, I'm divorced;

I try making it to the next payday but when I wake up and look in the mirror;

OMG, I'm poor;

I try growing up to mature but when I wake up and look in the mirror;

OMG, I'm old.

Something Somewhere

I see something in my head that I can't get right;

I feel something in my heart that I can not even fight;

I hear something in my brain that I don't think to be tight;

I sense something in my mind that I don't believe it's bright;

I catch something in my spirit that I can't approach by sight;

I discern something in my blood that I can't seem to dight;

I plot something on my body that I can't darn its twilight;

I find something on my soul that I can't blow by flight;

There is something somewhere giving me insight.

La Fortune (French version)

Quel malheur d'apprendre que la seule personne qui te retient c'est toi-meme;

Quel bonheur de savoir que la seule personne qui peut te relever c'est toi-meme.

The Fortune

It's unfortunate to learn that the only person holding yourself down is you;

It's fortunate to understand that the only person who could lift you up is you.

Spirit It Is

Within the brain walls resides the mind while in the neighborhood the soul pounds in every pulse of the heart;

The spirit channels through the whole body diffusing from up there to down here linking mind and soul;

This power supply feeds electrical current to the bulb that lights up and shine the room;

It is constantly torn apart between them two which continuously battle to gain sole control;

The top is the crop growing field and the bottom is the reservoir, albeit the in-between is the transporter;

A phone call is made between two receivers and these really close siblings converse for a long time;

When lost, the above or the beneath, your network gets derailed and deranged;

The loss of one causes overproduction when for the other it is overdraft;

The prior rains till flood, the latter dries till drought;

The stated pair has only been established to become mortal though spirit always was eternal;

Spirit got into us via the mind opening to rest seated on the soul;

In origin of times, the flesh was born with mind and soul pretty empty;

As it grows, they mature to get full at death;

Do you know the downside? I bet you don't or forgot;

Well, only the soul is to be harvested;

It gets out with the spirit's help that becomes the tail and the propeller;

Mind that was, soul to be, spirit it is.

Le Choix (French Version of "The Choice")

C'est ton choix de m'aimer, pas le mien;

C'est mon choix de te tromper, pas le tien.

Sunday, March 7, 2010

The Choice

It's your choice to love me, not mine;

It's my choice to hurt you, not yours.
