Lapis Lazuli.

made by my groupmates;

Theresa, Yoshi, Audrey, Alyssa, Jean, Roel.

A gem that can’t be seen by many,

but when light refracts it shines so brightly.

A gem that is no ordinary,

but gives surprise to everybody.

Like a gem we were born to stand out;

“UNIQUE! UNIQUE!” That is what we shout,

Never be afraid to be left out.

Even if in dirt we are found.

Others may have smart mouths,

But wity, yes, we are proud!

Here we stand bravely,

Each with hidden beauty.

We are Lapis Lazuli!!

Dear Love.

Hi, hello, how is your day? I hope it’s okay.
I have something to say, but I’ll just keep it anyway.
Because I know once you’ll hear this -you don’t want to stay.

However, there’s someone that’s pushing me to say,
What I actually feel about you everyday.
It’s hard for you to believe me.
But don’t worry, I don’t ask you to love me.

I have so many thoughts in mind, don’t know what I’m doing is right.
Feelings that I can’t hide, but I’m trying to keep it inside.
I was afraid to love again, ’cause I know I might feel pain once again.
But you taught me how to love with brain,and love that no one can refrain.

You told me you can’t love me back, it’s okay cause I don’t ask you that.
I’m happy loving you, without expecting love from you.
Everyone sees how much I care, they all feel the way I stare.
And they say, this play is unfair. And I’m just like I don’t care.

Memories Of The Past

Laying down in my bed as I closed my eyes. A brokenhearted sigh left my parted lips as a tear roll down on my cheeks. As I reminisce our moments together. The warm hugs we shared, the sweet kisses you gave me. The way your black eyes seemed to sparkle as you stared at me. I remember the ways you comforted me when the days are rough, and when you stayed beside me when it seemed like the world was against me, those strawberries scent always had calmed me. If I know that you’ll leave me this early, I shouldn’t love you this much for the fear of losing you would be too much.

Many questions run through my mind; “Why did you ever left me?”, “Are my hugs too tight for you?”, “Are you tired of listening to me?”, “Are you tired of loving me?”,”Am I not enough?”. Questions that soar through the zenith. The pain and the longing had and will always stop me from moving on, from forgetting you.

I miss you.

I miss how you light my dark world, how you lifted me up when I’m down, how you completed me and fixed me when I’m broken and empty. I miss how the light of your beacon guided me through the midst of despair. I miss everything ‘bout you.

My one and only guardian angel, my light… my buboo bear.

Dear Self.

I know you’re tired with your life already, but please hold on and be strong. Don’t let anyone under-estimate you.  Don’t let anyone play with your heart. Don’t let anyone hurt your feelings.   Don’t let anyone hinder you from moving on,  just keep going and never give up. Always look forward and don’t ever look back. I know you’re brave and you can do it.

I believe in you, self.

FINALLY!
Time flies really fast; it seems like yesterday when I saw the both of you personally, but a month already passed. You were just few inches away from me. Even though I waited for almost four hours and travelled for almost 2 hours, still worth it because I saw you, guys. Even though I spent a large amount of money, still worth it because I’ve got the chance to ask for an autograph from you, Meng (Thanks to Direk Red Guy –I don’t know his name). Everything went so well and perfect that day, for just half an hour you (Meng and Tisoy) gave me so much happiness –that no one could ever replace. And experienced that I will keep for the rest of my life and I will share to the next generation.

I supposed to post this last January 17. Sorry guys!Read More »

EDGE
by: Jean Lai

We promised each other,
that our friendship we’ll last forever.
We count on each other,
and you treated me like you’re real sister.

You never leave my side-
even at my darkest time.
You always try to make me smile –
because it hurts you every time you see me cry.

You hug me tight –
when you feel I’m not alright.
You stop the fight –
when you know no one’s right.

I’m so lucky back then,
to have you as my friend.
But –all of a sudden,
our friendship meets the end.

It’s really hard to say goodbye,
and not to cry.
I don’t know why…
but I think –now is the time.

For I Don’t Know What’s Going On

It’s Friday afternoon, I sat down in the most corner of our room –bringing with me my precious notebook and my so lovely pen. I have nothing to do within two hours so I’ve decided to relax and write poems, stories and blogs. At the meantime, I know this would be a great way to compile my thoughts and ideas.

Everyone was so busy doing their own stuffs. I have seen some; talking, laughing, playing, watching “movies”, doing the “parol”, roaming around the room and etc. While I was so busy writing a poem for those who got their hearts broken. I don’t know what’s going on around me; I don’t know what my classmates were talking about. The only thing I know was that I’m reminiscing the moments and the pain I’ve felt three months ago… After several minutes, I’m done writing the poem that I’ve wanted to dedicate to all broken hearts out there. And when I’m done writing it, I stood up and walked out of the room. While I’m walking, I have observed some of my classmates were crying and some were mad. And I can feel the commotion inside the room.

I was shock and can’t believe that in just a short span of time, everything changed. Their mood definitely changed –from so importunate to so emotional. And I don’t know what the reason is; I don’t know who the cause is. I asked the people whom I bumped into on what’s going on in our classroom but instead of answering me –they asked me back with another question. I’m really confused, all I know was –the room was filled with so much sadness and madness. Even though how much I wanted to know what’s going on, I tried my best to shut my mouth and just observed my surroundings. For I don’t know what’s going on.

DEAR YOU.

Months passed,
I’m still clinging on the past.
I thought this feeling won’t last –
but it really does.

If you never came,
my heart won’t feel the pain.
If you never called my name,
I wouldn’t ever be insane.

Can’t live a day,
without seeing you going on my way.
We used to play,
around the city all day.

We used to talk and have a walk,
But now –it will never be the same.
Cause every time I see you,
I only see pain.
