A Dreadful Nightmare

The radiant sun sleeps,
The serene moon glows,
The solitary night is cold.
The sky is filled with
Stars sparkling like a diamond,
Deafening silence wrecks my ears.

My crestfallen eyes are closed,
My fingers are crossed,
I lie here shaking.
My fate is cursed,
My life is doomed,
Everything is fading.

Light has lost its radiance;
Darkness has devoured me.
I’m lost in a deadly slumber-
Another dreadful nightmare.
I can hear spectral voices anywhere,
Specters are tormented everywhere.
I don’t know where I am but
The angel of death has come

From the dark clouds; I know
I’ll die on broken wings.
The radiant sun is rising,
The serene moon is hiding,
The night is turning to dawn.

The crows are flying
Over the horizon.
The black roses are slowly dying.
The sonorous requiem is starting.

I still hear the agony
Of my lifeless heart.
I still feel the melancholy
My blind eyes had gone through.

Now my empty soul wanders
In the place they call eternity.
Sitting at the top of the hill
Eternally desolated.

A Day Before the Summer Vacation

A Day Before the Summer Vacation

You were so close,
Yet so far for me to reach.
You saw me when you glanced behind;
I was there sitting beneath the acacia tree,
As I clutch my emotions for me not to cave in.

The sands in the hourglass were
Rapidly falling, time was melting in
The hotness of summer.

The lights of the cameras were flashing,
They were smiling, busy taking picture of
Themselves for the memories no to fade
In oblivion. In a day, when sorrow and
Bliss conjoined, I was there sitting
Not knowing what to do.

The moment was heartfelt, I had seen
The bliss in your glossy eyes.

I was going to approach you to tell
You my farewell message, but my legs
Were frozen because of fear; I couldn’t
Move at that time.

The walls between us was too enormous
For me to vanquish; I don’t want
To vanish.

I had waited until sunset and I saw
Your shadow fade in the immense
Darkness of the night and I was there,
Still sitting beneath the acacia tree,
Still staring at the place where your shadow fade.

All I had to say was goodbye,
My eyes shouted it but wasn’t loud
Enough for you to hear my eyes’ trembling
Voice of saying goodbye. My dread
To talk to you tied my tongue; I
Couldn’t say a word, not even the single
Word goodbye, It was the last time,
Did I push myself too hard? Or I didn’t
Push at all?

It was the last time,
I didn’t take my chances
While the sun’s dazzling light
Shines through my skin to my
Rotting flesh.

It was the last time,
A now-or-never moment.
The end of everything,
The start of a new beginning.
I’m still waiting for you to
Hear the words I never had the
Chance to tell.
I know farewells aren’t forever,
But heartache is what I suffer,
When you were there and all I could
Do was to stare.
