SOLDIER

You walk around,
with a purpose in mind.
You walk around,
ready to fight for life.
I admire your strength,
I admire your courage.
You are more than a soldier,
a protector, defender.
For, before I met you,
I believed patriotism to be overrated,
a deceitful concept, unadulterated.
Loyalty to be a trait lost,
fallen into the abyss of history.
Yet you opened my mind,
and my heart.
With your wilful bravery,
and heartfelt slavery,
to your nation and your people.
Though some believe you to be a fool,
the truth is that they have no clue.
So let not their thoughts,
cloud your heart.
For your heart is a treasure,
that one cannot break or measure.
And though the world,
might take its ugly turn.
You will still find me here,
refusing to let my hopes burn.
I would still admire,
Your strength, your courage.
For I know, i can still find you here,
a soldier against the world.

CHANCE

Its the heart that afraid of breaking,
that never learns to love.
Its the dream thats afraid of making,
that never takes the chance.
Its the one who wont be taken,
that cannot seem to live.
Its the soul thats afraid of dying,
that never learns to live.

VACUUM


Last night I lived in memories of times,
That I hold cherished in my heart.
The happy hours spent with you,
The joy of just being together,
Feeling the closeness
Of our silent conversations,
Your awkward smile,
At my dareful touch.
Your attaching paranoia,
And my citeful cynicism.
So many images. .  .
Scrolled across my memory.
Leaving in their wake that vacuum,
known as loneliness.
Sometimes, 
when the memories pounds my head,
ripping my heart,
with overwhelming grief and insecurity,
I cry myself to sleep, 
hoping the next day would dawn another chance for us.
And yet i forget, the reality,
the heart wrenching, desolate disparity,
What good are these tears? 
They will not bring you,
back to me. 
they never had.
And  then i remember,
tears have never eased my pain before.
So why should they now?
