again

They say you hold your destiny in your palms
yet what have I become?
Yesterday is gone
And another day has come
still my soul is never calm

I shall wear my mask and face the world again
to smile and laugh with people; to pretend
to hide the wretched real me inside
hoping that soon my life comes to an end.

cigarettes

Cigarette
They say it is bad for your health
Those people who say so are shit
Actually it’s good!
It soothes my nervousness,
calms down my anger,
and softens my passionate hatred.
Cigarettes, the best
It raptures me in times of wretchedness.

FREED

They say she's different, very different
like Abraxas, she is human and beast
man and woman in one flesh
an image of an angel and Satan
the highest of good and the worst of evil
a comforting light and terrorizing darkness.

As she stand before the mirror
she saw herself without soul
they shattered it.
She tried to scream
but voice just couldn’t come out
they cut off her tongue.

She no longer see the spacious sky
They plucked her eyes.
She no longer heard the brook murmur
Her ears turned deaf to the noise of people’s cry.
She can hardly move
She’s imprisoned in bloody walls.
She can hardly breath
Her chosen path is suffocating.

Long has she died
but she continued living
wondering in the abysmal nothingness
flying everywhere but nowhere.

Finally she’s tired, finally exhausted
did she lived a meaningful life?
or everything was just wasted?
Her body and soul devastated
Because of the fate, of destiny
She, herself has created.

This moment must be her last goodbye
to pains, suffering and self-lie
In nothingness
she shall eternally fly

hopeless

I want to believe
that life has meaning
Or am I just deceiving my self?

When will I finally leave
this world that is so grueling
That I may finally rest?

The wound stays unrelieved
Humanity of human is vanishing
Everywhere is grotesque

The world picture is plaintive
People fighting, killing; it’s disheartening!
Is life just a riddle or a jest?

If only everybody is attentive
to other people’s feeling
Perhaps we could overcome this wretchedness

Some people say I am weird
Or maybe my sanity is fading;
dreaming of harmonious life and world with less distress

Perhaps I am crazy, lunatic
But who among us whose mind is not defective?
Peace and unity, I can no longer conceive

People are hopeless; this world is hopeless
After all,
I am just fooling my self, I guess.
