branches





One with the branches of the trees,
the skeleton of who you are.
I cant stand these rotting limbs.
Just cut it off. Just tear it off.

shitty brother





My time is always wasted, and I always feel nothing. Today I found out that my brother is gonna be having his upsr on tuesday, and when I go through his exercise paper, I found out that he knows nothing. Not actually nothing, but he is so far than prepared for it. He said he couldn't do anything for the composition part for his english paper, and I'm okay with that. Not that I expect him to be so good and writes like a pro. I asked him the meaning of those words on the exercise paper, and I point out the word "classmate". He confidently answered "kelas math la bodoh sial tua ni". Now i know how it feels when sarah always give up on me when she teaches me arabic. This few days before we never stop talking about that kid that has finished all Harry Potter books and had begin reading what, Hobbits? Fuck that kid.

I know that all I've written here, could never be understood by my own brother if I never do anything before it's too late. My three months holiday I've spent for nothing, should have made him better if I ever kicked his bedroom door and smacked a book on his face. But I didn't. What a waste of precious time. He should've known what a classmate is and not make me feel like shit right now. Feels like waking him up and begin cramming everything in his head until he pukes blood. Good luck for upsr.

Twinkle twinkle little star
We've forgotten who you are.
There's no diamonds in our sky.
Just some airplanes passing by.

first of the forest






I'm the first of the forest,
the tallest of the trees.
My weakness is honey with
a side of thousand bees.

And I really don't mind
for a chewy midnight snack.
God bless your axe young man,
my unlucky lumberjack.

    sleepless





    Tied to clouds
    so high and proud
    from hills to shore I see.

    In smoke we sing
    for most of things
    that we had failed to be.

    We laugh and smile
    and say goodbye
    before the morning shine.

    But I got lost
    in all the voice
    and doors I couldn't find.

    schoolboy





    A hole on the floor

    in the middle of his bedroom.
    He keeps on falling into it
    every time he got up from his bed
    and he can't go to school.

    He spent years to fix it up himself, knowing that
    his dad can't afford the repair,
    but every time he tried the hole gets deeper,
    and deeper, and deeper,
    and his mum keeps calling him
    for lunch when he's at work.

    He tried to fill it up with tears, and he can't,
    everyone knows that he can't,
    but he never asked for his mum's and dad's.
    He figured out to think of all the time he failed them,
    and after that every time he wake up
    he fell into a salty pool, and blamed his parents
    for never having enough for him
    to take swimming lessons.

    Until one day, the Devil himself
    came dripping out of the hole and ask him

    "Do you wanna trade your soul 
    for swimming lessons?"

    "No,
    I wanna give my soul for a new home, a new room
    with no hole in the middle of it. 
    I'm sick and tired of falling into it every time
    I wake up and I can't go to school!" 

    "Well, that's easy.
    In fact you'll not just get a new home
    and a new room with perfect floor,
    you'll get a new set of parents too!
    A new mum and dad for free!"

    During dinner
    he look into his father's tired eyes,
    and his mother's dull face,
    and wonders if he could ever
    replace them.

    Yesterday, he's awake at midnight
    and finally his foot hit the floor again.
    He bent his fingers and it breaks,
    and he smiled, and he thought of how tomorrow
    he could wake up and go to school to read,
    write and learn. And play with his friends until dark.
    Then he could do it all again and again.
    Again and again.
    Again and again.
    Again and again. 

    Day by day

    until he's old enough
    to do things that a man would do,
    to do things that fathers would do.
    Things that makes mother's life worth the vow.
    And he went back to sleep. Having it all planned well
    for tomorrow, and tomorrow and tomorrow.

    When he opened his eyes in the morning
    he raised his fist up to the ceiling
    and jumped out of his bed,
    straight into the hole on the floor
    in the middle of his bedroom.

    empty glass






    I've felt much worse, but when I realised
    how long I've been staring
    at this blank white page
    without having my fingers moving,
    tapping on alphabets like it does before
    when I want them to, I saw a man
    who could say nothing but silence, slowly
    sinking into the stagnant sea he called his life.
    Sometimes by mistakes they deliver it to me
    word by word, and I am a grateful servant,
    a typewriter made of flesh,
    better than a beggar I am right now.
    As night crawls deeper the stronger
    disappointment is persuading, pulling me
    deep into sleep. But the bright canvas
    lending its light into the bedroom
    keeps on waking me up in the dark,
    while whispering, not yet. Not yet.
    So to kill the insulting guilt,
    how easily I am defeated
    by the void that has claimed my mind,
    mercilessly swallowing sentences
    and drowning uninspired inspirations,
    I keep on writing for you, my dear
    about how I can't write tonight.

    kindness





    I admit that I'm nothing but shit.
    I am.
    Till the day I die
    a rotting carcass.

    I admit that you are made for greatness.
    You are.
    I never deserve you
    and I will never be.

    I admit that my regrets drown me.
    Always. 
    Time just nods silently
    with chains stiff on my neck.

    I admit that I miss the dead.
    So much.
    But they won't be so kind
    when they receive me.
