IF ONLY
Poetezzz May 2020
If only I’m brave enough
To soar up high, to touch the sky
Uncover the things I wonder why
Discern the fondness of being tall
At the top of the universe or name it all
If only I tried and strengthen my soul
Undertake the path even if it’s rough
If only I gave my most jovial laugh
Offered my comforting hug
If only I did not hesitate to love
I still have you

SELF-LOVE
Poetezzz May 2020
Believing to yourself all these times
Overthrow all self-doubts and persuasive lies
Either you succeed or you fall in vain
It’s alright to still lift your head up high
You did try your best and God may not did the rest
Putting a fight for me is the best
Some things are harsh, and it hurts so bad
One step is better than being trapped in the mud

Hearts forsaken tainted with beautiful lies
Fallen too deep because of a shallow rationale
Selfishness is also a form of benevolence
Am I right? Am I wrong?
Condemning an indifferent affection
But pain is pain, it’s too hard to explain
How much of it to let go of everything?
How much of it to never stop pushing?

WONDER
Poetezzz Apr 2020
How beautiful the eyes that can see the truth
Into the deepest parts of one’s weary soul
To light the path of the lost
Who seeks for a smile without sarcasm
Unconditional and passionate
Without questions, without judgements
Reaching out the hands for acceptance
Or lending some little cloth for the tears

In this shattering world
Where everyone needs saving
From all the burning temptations
Many may laugh, some may mock
With all those pretentious acts
Are you happy?
Are you sad?
I wonder if all of it is enough

ENDEAVOR TO FIGHT
Poetezzz Apr 2020
It feels warm like a sweater wrap around my arms
Warm like tears that flowed when we’re happy or sad
It seems like a dream of love I never had
Long years of waiting in this valley so dark

I let if fall like there’s no tomorrow
I poured my tears with all the sorrow
I saw your light telling me “Don’t let go!”
So, I hold your hand pulling me to grow

Embracing the thorns is the chance I take
Trusting on every decision I make
It wasn’t easy because my life is at stake
Trying not to be selfish for others sake

Haunted by the past so melancholic
I’m slowly dying in every heartbreak
This life of loneliness made me so sick
I just want to throw the manner of being weak

THE CHOICE
Poetezzz Apr 2020
Sometimes I can’t help myself to wonder
Would it make my life better?
If I chose the path that I wanted to walk
The dream I had lost which I never took

I’m always looking in the past
Hoping like it could possibly change
And as I always count the days to last
The reality keeps on knocking like a sage

To focus on the present is very important
To survive and to live a fulfilling life
Regrets are things that can made you dormant
And it’s actually something truth I can’t strife

I believe that there’s nothing I can do
To change the past this so late and impossible too
I may not make myself to let all my regrets go
But surely, I can’t let my choices push me too low
Poetezzz Apr 2020
Hush now dearest child, wipe away your tears
There’s nothing here in the dark, cast away your fears
Do you see how the wind blow gently the green leaves?
It sways back and forth happily living in these ridges

Can you hear this golden melody? So pleasant to the ears
It’s like a lullaby a mother sings to her baby to sleep
Now can I see a curve in your reddish lips?
Sing along the verses with its rhythm so deep

Spread out your arms and lift your head
Round and round, let your feet take the lead
Don’t worry a thing because music is not yet dead
And it will never be, there’s no such thing like end

Now let your soul fly away, far away to infinity
It’s now the chance to escape from this adversity
While the strings of your guitar are still firm and strong
It will never stop accompanying this lovely song

Hush now dearest one, do not weep anymore
You’ve been locked but there are iron bars no more
It doesn’t matter even your throat will soon get sore
As long as the song opens a whole new hopeful door

Nostalgia
Poetezzz Apr 2020
In the coldness of the night I feel it
There are voices inside my heart
Every pulse, every beat
There is this burning heat
Even for a thousand hours I’m willing to wait
But every second is too hard for me to breath
Along with the whisper of the wind
Seems like everything is vague in my eyes
But I still remember the day of yesterdays
When my innocence was still pure
When little things were still a glamorous lure
Too good, too sweet, and too hard to forget
All the memories in the past
Which once I had wished not to last

— The End —
