situated at the corner of the darkened room
is the couch of the unfathomable, where the angel sat
she looked at the darkness that is miserly black
the dim light from the sooty sky illuminated her
while the bottomless pit of the abyss made her sober
the nightingales of the night sang their discant songs
and her sluggish, melancholy spirit devoured them all
her lifeless black torn wings is all that she has
never had she realized that she's one beautiful lass
she felt her heart beating for something
through the absence of awareness she knew there was one thing
but that one thing was left unsaid, dormant and forgotten
the words of the angel kept in silence deep within
the violence of the darkness of the earth she loathed
that made her fall on the ground, and she lost it
her life on earth was wasted, she thought
not realizing that she flew into the sky, where she could
to fly as beautiful as she could in the human world
and help others in their search for the Word
as he angel sat on the couch of the unfathomable
her lifeles black torn wings is healing
until she could finally soar up high into the sky
and sing her melodious and harmonious songs
so that the world will hear again
the sweet air of the angel that once have fallen
on the earth's vicious and violent ground

This poem offers hope after pain. I remembered Daniella and I decided on writing something positive on a papyrus, and this poem was written, as a summary confrontation for all our heartbreaks and painful experiences. It's a time to let go and finally step on the next path our lives.
painting taken from Yessy Art Gallery
as i entered the house of the haunted
i knew that my hours have ended
to woe the promise he has hated
towards the gossamer that he has painted
on the canvas he spilled his blood
to summon the dead through its cup
and i stood there as he looked at me
i smiled at him but he dared not to see
the vows we've made, he has forgotten
the memories we've shared he has abandoned
i felt like crying but tears didnt fall
i might as well go and leave it all
my time on earth has passed
but before my slumber, he asked
whether promises are really meant
or our last time together cannot be spent
i love him and he loves me too
but there are things that neither of us can do
we cannot bear destiny's cruelty towards us
but even so, nobody can separate us
not death of life itself
because in this slumber hours
his heart and mine only crave for one another
as he will bring me back to life
from the world of the others
together we'll wake ones again
holding hands, we'll live our vows together ones again
the fulfillment of our dreams is at hand
nothing and no one will bind us from this band
because of the power i have vested in it
it will never separate us, forever
yet, he has lost all his strenght to fight it..
the foul smell of the creosote
is penetrating into my pale skin
this is indeed the end of our time
this is what's left in me, my slumber hours,
our forever broken vows..

the putrid breathe of the dead she smells
upon the rock where rested her lover's grave
she stood still as she reads his epitaph
but she's trying to be tough
fighting the lies from her tears
forgetting her frightful childhood fears
to be left behind by the love of her life
she knows that he was a sacrifice
that she cant afford to leave behind
destiny's cruelty she ought to mind
but she never did so
she failed to fight and find the foe
the weakness in her heart makes her strong
but not enough for revenge to tag along
she believes not in death but in everlasting life
the life that was promised by the light
just before her wings turned black
and thrown in the earth's withered ground
they were so madly deeply in love
but they were trapped in the illusions of luck
a mortal and an immortal lovers can never end up together
but still they struggled to fight forever
and they traveled the dimness of the night
amidst the darkness they knew that they weren't alone
the eyes of the enemy were fixed on them
yet they fought every snare the enemy makes
surrounded by the remains of the temple
they prayed that someday they will surpass them all
and finally reach the gates of the immortal call
never did they fear that they may go on separate ways
because of their strong love that always lays
firmly they walked through the gate
so that they will not miss the sacrosanct date
and there his lover was taken away
among the others who lost their way..

Inspired by "AH MY GODDESS: The Movie"
There is more to me than what you see.
Scarred with the pain that inflicts me
Devouring my wandering soul,
Underneath the shadows I call my own.
Despite all I've been through, I never quit
I have fought hard enough for me to sit
I suddenly see my self standing in the new world
I doubt if I belong.
I've wondered if I have a place here
A place I can call my own.
I've searched hard enough to find my home
But for now, I don't know where I belong
Do I belong?
Most of you don't really understand
What I'm going trough now is tough
Perhaps you know nothing of me at all
I've still yet to find what I'm capable of
My sense of purpose is confusing me
What am I destined for tomorrow?
Clueless, is this my direction?
Quite a diverged road I'm walking into now.
This divergence will take me there,
Hopefully to the place I shall call my home
