He wasn't the stereotypical hero --The kind to make her swoon,The kind to make her croon.Yet somehow he stuck.He made her smile.He wasn't the knight in shining armour --The protector of the realm,The one who could overwhelm.Yet anyhow he shone.He always showed up.If anything, he was an anti-hero.Not the one hoped for by mothers.Not the [...]

Adjustment
When you said You didn't like What I did, I dropped it. When you said You didn't like What I said, I shut it. When you said You didn't like What I thought, I stopped it. And then one day, I realized, I didn't like Who I was becoming. So I picked what I dropped. [...]
Don’t Talk to Me of Love
Talk to me of anything,If you please, everythingBut love.It is a topic over-exploited,More like an onion too sauteed.What is it with everyone,Each relative and that unknown bun,Who lives in "loveland?"Don't they have anything else to think?Is this the only way they find to sink?Talk to me of nature --Diversified in its great stature,Of rivers and [...]
My End, My Beginning

The Late Bloom

Perfect
If I were perfect, I would know Exactly what to say. But I bumble for words. If I were perfect, I would do Everything just right. But I make many mistakes. If I were perfect, I would treat Everyone just as they deserve. But I muddle up all systems. If I perfect, I would succeed [...]
Why He Loved Her

The Sun and the Moon
The Sun was fiery, Always hot-headed, Always scary, Keeping everyone afar. The Moon was dim, Full of spots, Full of faults, With not even light to boast of. A trick of the universe or A trick of fate, Made the Sun fall For the Moon. Ever since, without fail, daily The Sun decided to go [...]
Blood of My Blood
You are my father. My protector, My guide, You are the pillar That I know won't let me fall. You are the blood of my blood. You are my daughter. My baby, My pride, You are the reason That I try so hard. You are the blood of my blood. You are my father. The [...]
