Is This Your Life?

I was a naughty kid
But I wasn’t all bad
I tried my best to be good
But did they notice?
No.

My good deeds went unnoticed
And my slightest mistakes,
were made sure to be punished severely.

My family was poor
But I didn’t blame them
I understood and accepted that fact.

But then they started blaming me
for all the shit in their life
And my life had become shitland.

But then I met and fell in love with someone
Whom I thought loved me too.
I thought she knew and accepted the fact,
that I was fucked up.

But I was wrong
And she left
So fuck me.


p/s: I wrote this for a friend who pretty much has the same life as me. The only difference is he’d found love and lost it. As for me, I’m still wondering what love is.

Tak Tau

I guess I guess
I think I think
Well, at least I’m still thinking
So stop yelling at me
I won’t know until I know
and you won’t know either

The Answer Is Obvious

I live in a world
When someone asks you
Why don't you have this?
or
Why don't you do this?

The answer is obvious

It has even come to the point
When someone asks you
Why don't you like this?

The answer is the same

No money.

Congratulations

You take a step forward
And the world moves with you
You are back in the same place
Congratulations.

Your Shallowness Is Deep

One thing I hate
About this world
Is how people think you are stupid
If you are silent

Little do they know
It is their insecurities
That imprints these smudges
On their perception

When they need to know
If they are right
And all you have for them
Is the truth
That nobody knows

Straight to the point

You said my poetry was vague
So I'll write something direct
FUCK YOU!!


*this isn't directed to anybody in particular. Just thought I'd used this if needed to. If you want, you could use it too, just ask me nicely. ;)

Right? Wrong?

The system is right
Absolutely right
RIGHT! RIGHT! RIGHT!
Right?

No?
Then why are we the ones
suffering for their faults?

The system must be right then
I am a failure
There's only two sides to a coin
My fault or your fault

So kill me now
Do me and yourself a favour
And rid this world of this thrash

Because cowards will never kill themselves.

Shakespeare Meets Queen

All the world's a stage
Full of sound and fury
And then is heard no more
Empty spaces and abandoned places
Signifying nothing

But the show must go on.

On and on.

O Where Art Thou?

There is a robot
Whose heart doubles as a transmitter
And in the day he transmits
his message to the cosmos
And at night he waits
patiently for a reply

Sometimes it rains
But the robot is unfazed
But unknownst to him
Deep down inside
He rusts

Sometimes it rains hail
Or a sandstorm hits
Or wild beasts attack
The poor robot
has no choice but to retreat
to his tiny cave
But when the storm clears
and the savage animals moved on
The robot crawls out and
continues transmitting

Such is the life of the robot
Who can never die
Or see the world in another eye
for he is programmed as such
Who waits patiently and
transmits diligently
Braving the odds
Hoping for a single
beep
 
From the great cosmos

For Sure?

I'd walk a million miles
for you
Swim the deepest oceans too.
But tell me to get a job?
I'll die trying.
And if I die,
how would we be together?
But sure,
I'd enslave my live,
if it's for you.
I just need to know,
if you'll love me
for sure.
But how would
I know?

Aku Bodoh!

Apabila,
di dunia ini,
wujud manusia,
yang hanya tahu,
melukai hati,
orang tersayang,
dan itulah aku.

Bagaimana,
hendak ku lafazkan padanya,
Aku cinta pada mu.
