I dug my own grave

I always have dreams almost every night (falling or jumping from high places, losing all my teeth,  dreaming of being late at school, etc) but this dream is different. It's like I’m aware I’m dreaming but there’s nothing I can do to wake up or to make it stop. I was 15 or 16 at the time. I was in a boarding house near my school and I have 4 roommates. The 4 of us share the same room, the room has 2 bunk beds. We have our own restroom and a kitchen. For 4 - 5 days I keep on dreaming of my college Professor whom I dislike. He is so bossy and loves to order us around to do things that are not school related. In my dream, he’s shouting at me and ordering me to carry different things. On the first night, I was carrying a lot of books. Next night I was carrying garden tools like a shovel, watering can, gloves, and plant seeds. This continued for 2 - 3 nights and every time I woke up my arms hurt and they were shaking as if I carried heavy stuff. I am so confused why am I dreaming of him!...

Two hearts

Image
Which heart do you have? the heart that beats or the heart that loves? or maybe both... while it beats it also loves and while it loves it also breaks... but which heart can do more good the heart that beats but doesn't love or the heart that loves but also breaks? thus the heart just too scared and weak to let it just beat or is it to practical to just let it beating thus the heart to showy not to be contented in just beating that it also wants to love? or is it just too strong to take the risk to fall in love without any assurance of being catch. whether it loves or breaks the most important thing is.....  it BEATS!!! beats to live... AND to live means to change... on how the story of your heart ends. whether to love or to break or simply beat...

A poem for a friend

Image
How I wish I could do the things I never did... how wish I could say the words I never said... maybe there will be a change on how your story end... If there is only someone or something that can bring you back to the living... I'll find a way to talk and do something... even the price is being curse till my last breath I'll do it... because your a friend that is so precious to me... but sadly no one could, even the wealthiest man existing... that's why this is the part where my heart, soul and mind collide... thinking about my idiocy of running away when your around... while your memories being reminisced... my heart is being rip piece by piece...  --- This poem is about my college friend that died 10 years ago. The story goes like this.  My friend ask me to go out with him but I ignored him then next thing I know he was murdered by a group of people 2 women and 1 man. Based on the police investigation it was a mistaken identity. Until today I still think wh...

Insomnia (Short Poem)

Image
Sleepless nights, endless thoughts  Wandering mind on how tomorrow will go Counting sheep, from one to none. Beating heart, my pulse at peace  finally a good night sleep ticking clock, waking me up then a flashing light, in the corner of the window in a split second I'm wide awake than ever. The same process goes,  too tired to get up I want to sleep My eyes are tired and teary hands are numb and shaky. Lights are all gone the only thing present is the clock in the corner. Kept on ticking  as if it's breathing too weary to count sheep As I close my eyes the clock alarms and it's already time to get up. Feeling uneasy my body is so heavy my eyes are not ready. Rewind 'till next night.

Crush(Short Poem)

Image
A simple glimpse completes a day A smile, even it meant for someone leaves my heart trembling in suspense In a close distance, I began to blush Just like a ripe berry ready to be farmed. With one hello, I was left speechless heart-stopping, mouth-watering voice stuttering, eyes wide open. Processing the event if it did happen  with one-touch, felt like cloud nine on a foggy night. Why can't it be you and I? Instead of you and her. Stars are colliding the time is moving,  everything is set but why is it not working?  This is dedicated to my gay friend for always being in love but ended up being  friendzone  

Enough(Short Poem)

Image
A 'no' is a 'no' when the word came from you Everything that I see is lies when you tell me to Things don't exist unless you say they do. You say friends are trouble because they say things about you Can't wear this, can't wear that  Can't say no, can't say stop I obey, I always say yes I follow the commands - Yes! I follow your commands. Can't think on my own,  Can't moved, can't do anything coz' orders must be followed  or else I'm in trouble Punishment must be it Strikes on the leg Lashes on the back Bruises on the arm Profanity during clash All neglected duties must be punished But enough is enough, with a small drop, things will change with one drink and it will all end. This is dedicated to my abusive ex, the small drop symbolizes LOVE and one drink symbolizes COURAGE. When I realized it's too much to handle I learned to love myself and it gave me the courage t...

I am me!(Short Poem)

I am not a toy to play with I am not a floor to step on I am not a trash to put to waste I am a human being that feels I am a girl that's hurting  I am a sister who is giving I am not a game to win I am not a trophy to exhibit  Instead, I am a person to be loved and cherish. I am not a thing that needs to be fix I am a person that needs to be understood I am not an object to project I am a person that needs protection. I am not a mistake that needs to be corrected  I am a nobody that wants to be somebody I am not a dream - don't make me fill your reverie because I am real I am imperfect and I am me. 

Why me?(Short Poem)

Image
You've fallen in love once to a petite girl with straight hair. You are once loved, cherish, and was indeed promise of forever. You are the kindest, most loving  I ever met.  I fell and I was caught by your arms, in one split second I was in the safest place and the most romantic one.  Weeks have passed after meeting you.  I must say, I'm madly, deeply in love every day.  The day came you proposed, that you want to try the promise  of forever with me.  I was shocked and my heart palpitates continuously. As days go by with you, I felt I don't deserve you.  You are young, handsome and I was the total opposite of you but still, you kept on showing,  that I'm the only girl for you.  You are charming - no doubt. That's why being beside you makes me feel awkward at times. I want to be with you and away from you at the same time. Having you is the best and worst feeling of all. The best becau...

Common Mistake(Short Poem)

I want to think something productive and yet... once the idea enters my mind it vanish change to something hopeless than romantic. My mood swings from delighted to disgusted, Disgusted that I can't even find something nice about myself. I sat in the corner,  wondering why I'm alone and all of these people  are with someone. Am I not special to be with? from a simple question, it became a wild imagination. From imagination to a realization,  "I am not good enough" from a realization of an idea without  any validation, results... to quick devastation of  a fragile mind thinking that she's useless and unworthy. All the time that passes by became wasted, instead of living life to fullness, it became a burden that empties every day. instead of finding a way out started whining on how unfair the world is. Then one day, this person came. smiles and keep on working to find a way out instead o...

No worries I believe you(Short Poem)

I know you remember the time when I am ill you kept on joking that I'm faking it... I am furious deep down inside but I just smiled and laugh with you Right now your on the same place on where I was, No worries I will not jest I will just look at you dead in the eye and say "I hope you're fine"...  Because karma is a bitch it will hit you hard and you'll fall harder than those  you mock. I will let you feel sorry for yourself and will keep on saying whenever you tell stories about what happened NO WORRIES, I BELIEVE YOU

I Pity Myself(Short Poem)

Sick for a week now I am broke and all the people even the closest ones doesn't believe. They kept on cracking a joke that I'm on vacation provided them a proof that I'm ill and unfit to work and still, they put it to question. I tried to ask a few of my friends if  they can lend me some change, just got five rejections in just half day I provided them money whenever they are in need and now I'm the one asking they are unable to give, I don't know if it's just the lack of resources or helping me is not they're concern. At least right now I know what color they were, I will not be deceived with the same trick. Now I am hoping  for the best and expecting the worst and whichever comes first, I'll be ready for it. Already at the rock bottom used my last card and the only way for me to go is to step up and reach the top.

Don't be late (Short Poem)

Image
Need to get up Need to move fast The time is running swiftly! Already late for the success aiming to obtain... All of my running mates are already halfway and  here I stand thinking twice and thrice whether  to move forward or step backward... Already late.... already shaken terrified and pressured on what the crowd will say... still on the start-up not knowing what to do... Yet... It's better to be here than to be off track x

Now you hear me whine(Short Poem)

Image
I have food to eat cloths to wear. People to cherish  and a home to live in but still... I have this longing... I want to do something. I want to be somebody I want to go somewhere BUT  I don't have any idea, what? how? and where? I want to explore and be a different thing  something important... something useful... I want to rage and be anything, I want to be and yet...  my life has no direction no specific reason on why I am here and I can't find the answer as if I'm glued on a bottomless pit

Cowardly Brave(Short Poem)

Image
Face everything that scares and hurts you. coz even you try to run and hide they will still get you... Face it once and it's gone,  run and hide no matter how hard you try  it will eventually corner you.  And guess what?  the faster you run the harder you stumble  In the end...  The truth will definitely hurt  but it will end your agony and will make you stronger than you'll ever be... Most of the time, things that can destroy you will make you tougher People that you trust will betray and leave you. Things that you have will be taken away from you. Face it and end it now!

Untitled #2 (Short Poem)

Image
Unhappy Useless Despicable I can't make myself happy when a lot of things can make you one I wanna cry because it makes me feel better. Lots of thought in mind but still ends with a question why? Why do I feel this way? Why do I think this way? Why? Do I feel this sorrow known as failure when I already got what I dreamed of... (at the end you just need to show a smile even it hurts a lot) x

Untitle#1 (Short Poem)

Image
Whenever I open my social media I become sadder than what I’m supposed to be. Not because I’m jealous of what my friends had become but because what I am right now feeling alone, cold, and worthless even I have what they had, experience what they experienced. Laugh and love harder than they do. It just so happened that I am not showy just like them. I rather eat the food that I ordered than to take pictures. I rather experience the beauty of a place in my own eyes than to waste my time taking videos.   But still, I feel sad and degraded whenever I see those posts.
