Bede's Lament

Facing Death, that inescapable journey,
who can be wiser than he
who reflects, while breath yet remains,
on whether his life brought others happiness, or pains,
since his soul may yet win delight's or night's way
after his death-day.

“Lies written in ink cannot disguise facts written in blood.” ― Lu Xun

-

The heave of emotions
Take turns to flow
Time gushes away
But, sometimes
It withers so slow
Without you

-

I think of small things
Tiny bit of spaces
Discreet silences
We are not short
Of words or feelings
Yet we soar high
On uneven equations

-

You try hard
Those shaky emotions
Work that extra mile
For that curvy smile
Yeah, it's tragic
Going again and then
Waiting for magic
Then snapping back
Again

-

A lot can happen
Over a cup of coffee
An idea, a decision
Details and precision
Intuition or discussion
A lot can happen
In a matter of seconds

-

Craving those in the past
Unable to meet those in future
Seeing the ceaseless time and space
Makes the tears drop in pain and torture

-

As far as eyes can see
As long as it can wait
As fast as it can run
As long as it can turn
I will fly to the Moon
I will come back from Sun
Right back to your side

-

Feelings
Hard to resist
Love is love
Hate is hate
Uncomplicated
Yet copious
It drips and flows
It rains and snows
Hard to persist
Feelings

-

Do I say all that I feel
All expressed
Explicitly, nothing hidden
No double meanings
No sarcastic comments
Can words all explain
That intense loss or gain
When words aren't enough
Silence explains
