Your Presence in Me



I created a gracious banner to march under,
Into the foreign lands of ____ wilderness,
And as I stepped into architectural hostels
Interior design enveloped the human kind.

A candle at the centre of a massive room
Lit the gloomy and inhabited ____ walls,
Where two travellers sat and a storyteller,
A great new cult was soon to be revealed.

Special student rate stays at the ______’s,
Only seven days’ worth of dear memories,
Thus, I never lost the feeling of belonging,
Yearning for the warmth of its inhabitants.

Settled on the eleventh calm ______ night,
Three months passed, like that night, quick,
Keeping hold of certain threads of connection,
Only to realise that few will soon forever depart.

Emotional Collision

I rarely publish personal poems that are easy to understand without the use of metaphors and/or similes such as this one; titled 'Emotional Collision'. I am currently in conflict whether to share this poem or not. For now, I will keep it hidden, but I will share its contents. [deleted] I write this to let my readers recognise this poem since it is important to me. Maybe, too important or too scared for me to share. Yes, maybe both, but scared for sure.

A Game of Chess

If not for the moonless sky of this night's misery, the day might extend an eye to watch over a handful of thieves, A conundrum oscillating between two distinct colours, in hope of creating a dilemma to stop the moving pendulum, Theories develop to foresee a useless wit of the mind, only to realise the existence of a more soothing punishment, A hand moves between crowds for a binary command, except when another retaliates by a delusional retreat, Psychological mistreatments going back and forth, if only to acquire the wisdom of strategizing a winning blow, Factual circumstances attracted the use of force, until the brittleness of the substance snapped into bits and pieces, If not for the countless sacrifices of many queens, the era of kings might end under the rubbles of monstrous beings.

Blessed are We

There is a time when the heavy rain, Declines to face the atrocious sand, And emerges on the horizon at dawn, To fall from the sky above so high, Onto the bricks and gates of a castle. But deep down in his warm heart, He wants to guide those who are lost, He then cries out loud then he sighs, And then the moon escapes the clouds, Shining the light on the forlorn souls. To be a part of this enormous castle, To embed within its protective walls, To evaporate into the clouds up high, To become yet another heavy rain, To drench tears from the souls of sands.
