adrenaline

i hear the thumping in my ears
the heavy laboured breathing
my palms are sweaty
my vision a blur
a thousand thoughts are running through my head
someone said something
but i couldn't understand
the light buzzing all around me is driving me insane
then, the loud boisterous blare goes off
and everything is clear
i'm racing for the end

faith

when the skies have turned a shade of dark violet
when the water is gushing at unimaginable speeds
when the wind is howling painfully
when the ground is dry and barren
when the future just seems so bleak
a glimmer of light
a spark of hope
keeps the heart burning
keeps the walk shorter
keeps the faith everlasting

origami

the folds and creases
the shapes and the lines
the final product no one knows
because she's folding and creasing at random
because she'll never know what to expect
before it is done
the uncertainty though,
lessens as it draws nearer to the end
and she'll know what to expect

release

sitting under the sycamore tree
basking in the warm golden light
the grass glittery with morning dew
the silent wind light and fresh
the sugar sweet air surging through my body
i gaze up to the blue skies
a smile crept by
while i watch the bunch of coloured balloons
rose into the otherwise pale sky

climbing

the vertical ascend was toiling
beads of strain rolled down the pale face
burning an acidic trail
although the sight of others before
left the thread of confidence thinning
their hind views kept the adrenaline flowing
pushing forth,putting another step forward
it is not the end,it is not the summit
like a broken player
it keeps repeating:
it's not what you do;
it's how you do it

juggle

the people we meet in life are all predestined
the events that take place in our lives are planned
they intertwine and intertangle
for they are just like a tangle of yarn
for some,the contact is short and sweet
just like a short piece of string
for some it's toiling and brash
just like a long rough rope

reprobate

your presence used to be valued
your presence used to be cherished
but then it morphed
it changed
the air was heavy with suspicion
the air heavy with dislike
the atmosphere dodgy
the presence of us both together got weird
now your presence is no longer of any importance
become i've come to realise that you are playing a game
and well,
I QUIT

raven

it was difficult to tell if you were being honest
your actions were saying one thing
but your voice was doing the opposite

it was tough to judge if you were being sincere
you said you we were friends
but you still continue hurting me

i guess you think you have got me
got me trapped in your little game
but i am so much stronger than you think
and i'm smarter than you think

you said so yourself
that people like me,
who've gone through many things
are dangerous because we know how to survive
so ain't it dumb of you to be stepping on my tail
to be wedging war with me

well,it's your choice
your call
you are the one making life difficult
not me
