a moment in time

Posted: Saturday, March 20, 2021 by Stained in Labels:

a moment in time
an emptiness inside
broken
shattered
oblivious to pain
or hate
or love
Maybe this is perfection
absolution
disappointment
Carry on the burden
soft
delicate
drowning in air
broken
shattered
surrender to pain
of hate
of love
of everything ever was
A snap
a silence
distraught with happiness
with sadness
soft
delicate
an emptiness inside
a moment in time

Day Dream

2:30am

Draped in red
Amongst the crowd
Enveloped in love
An enduring limelight

Forever elevated
A burden exonerated
Mint snuffles
Floral daydreams

A conclusion long owed
Wrecked morose eyes
Unsteady arms
Remorseful pleasures

Those eyes
Hard to believe
Lost a heartbeat
An enduring daydream

He’ll be alright

A little boy buried in shadows
Hissing to the world
Memories unheard of
Stories untying alone
Unbelievable or miraculous
What if he did something?
Something really bad
Spewed disgust

A sugary vengeance
It will break you they said
Outside the unrealities
Desolate or lucid
The prayer surely responded
Preserving the loved
Tickled disdain aligned
Embrace that breathe

That bundle of joy
Who would have guessed it?
Draped in bandages
Behind glass doors
A little girl sinking in air
Outside the unrealities
Between his fingers
He’ll be alright

Persistence

It revolves around a one
The spare of the first
Without it there is nothing
But this is the persistence
That was mistyped sideways
In invisible inked literacies
Of everything that it withheld
Concealed amongst bars
Smeared glossed layers
Flesh and carcasses
Tears and screams
Never break them they said
We cannot get out
This is the persistence
Going down the rabbit hole
Shoves and laps
Perspire and grime
A shadow waits in the gloom

Little Box

Posted: Thursday, August 15, 2013 by Stained in Labels:

Little box with the letter on top
A window to embrace memories
To replace what was once shattered
Hidden in lies and deceit

Within the hands clasped shut
Oh this is just perfect
Maybe the memories are still alive
The little box got dumped instead

Years later the box endured
Hidden in a corner feeling ashamed
A bigger window now held inside
Everything was sunshine once again

Deceit and lies still lie below
The secret that no one shall know
Now your smile will never be alone
That little window always knew

*sigh* Haven't written for a while so thought I was out of that phase. Guess not... (-_-)

Somebody care...

I'm living a life
One that's not mine
I'm dreaming a dream
One in which I do not wish to be
I want to get out
I want to leave
But how much can I scream?
How much can I shout?
I need you to be there
I need you to care
But you just stand apart
And all you do is stare
Please, somebody save me...
Please...somebody care...

...sometimes becomes your own...

No matter how hard I try
No matter how much I want it
I can't move away from you
I can't detach myself from you
Your image is burnt in my mind
Your voice echoes through my head
You've taken a hold on me
That I wish you'd relinquish
Because I think I'm addicted to you
And I need to get over you
I need to move away from you
I need to detach myself from you

The way of the wild..

Random poem wrote while being bored at Gitex...

It's not the way of the wild
Lost in the fleeting madness
Draped for an error
Not in an instant
Maybe an illusion
Tripping over the edges

With your secret incense
Going down the sacred stature
Mesmerized instants
Going going gone
Lost in frames
Slipping away at the edges

Maybe the way of the wild
Is the only path around
You fit into the frame
Define within the borders
Goes the saying
Or so it seems...

Dearth of sand

Dissolution of the musical essence of silence
Motion sickness from rocking on heels
Numinous shadows sealed to ones soul
Historical wisdom accrue the seers
Darkness within the eye lips
Spoken the fleeting moment away
Fallen before the dearth of sand
Thoughts of corpses encircle beyond
Sleets of numbers frozen midair
Counting down the crackle beneath
Stops the mist one designs
Fashion the smile all over again

Shying away from those eyes

Shying away from those eyes
The belief...
Approval and care
Coupled before rationale
Amused - bemused
Familiar ground
Uncertain forever
Misdeeds to shatter
Drops of spice...
Left for pretense
Regret and disgust
Shying away from those eyes
The loss of a child...
Squabbling left over
Salty water

Smile

The fascinating tang of food
Inept to savor, still I gorge away
Enveloped by warmth at night
Yet I stay awake, an infinite quiver
So much to do so little time
A pause or a hiccup, seconds last forever
Aching reminder gnashing your teeth
Sheets of cover, a shadow of a smile
Pretentious exposure anonymity
Words to say, no one see...

-Stained

Responsibility – strength – professionalism – stability...perfection. Emotions...left alone - unwanted – unnecessary – pretend. Make those eyes smile...persuade – balance – naive – simple. No more questions...no more lies. Just smile and wave...smile and wave.

Ferris wheel

11am

Blissful face
Quaking hands
Arbitrary hugs
A shove or a pull
Darkening auras
Fistful of film
Puzzling fold
Graze the torso
Sneak peak
Hammering gavel
Huff and puff
.....Silencio

-Stained

Imaginary characters; whispering through life among the alive. You whisper back. Whispers turn into loud debates, guidance...concealment. The aroma is enticing; a contrast to reality. You get drawn in deeper; you cannot stop...you don’t want to. Going round in circles leaving the alive behind.

Embrace...

She plunks at the very same blemish
Every single moment he’s around
His apathy was deafening
It’s still resonant in her mind
A cuddle later
An allusion of air
The blankness around him
Is bleeding within her
He walks back to her car
Manufacturing just right sentences
Gnawing a gum
Shinning like a booming star
Thrice the love
Once upon a time
Glistening ambiance
Down the unconscious path
The affection, cold counter
Ruffled hair, untouchable
Everything, still not the same
An embrace later
Thin air, just her…

Again..

A different character;
A comedian or a liar...
Visionary procedure
Interpreting the past.
Statements;
The cessation move...
Mainstream warfare;
Just hidden bones.
Do you see what I see in you...?
Always the smile
Always the disguise.
I look for her behind the scenes
The curtains fold for you
Once again...
Applause,
Whistles
Hats thrown in the air
Empty hands...
Close a door somewhere
Brick walls
And exits
Contrasting elements
What do you see
All black again
Waving stature
Spotlight
Silhouettes
They're all the same
Take a bow
You're out again...

I love you...
Beyond doubt
Without reason
This is where
I choose to be
This is why
You're everything to me
I love you...a lot
But a lot isn't enough
Being enough isn't the point
Far beyond that
Surpassing anything
But who needs to measure
This seamless emotion
So I just want to say
I love you
And nothing else matters
Anymore

I don't think I've ever written a poem that isn't depressing; this feels odd. Anyway the poems a little corny to say the least, quite basic and a little messed up but I like it...so that

Reminiscences
Tumbling down
Twice the detestation
On the hitch
Flick over
Buoyant
Twice the affection
Glittering through
Stare at me
A vision
Appearing alone

Shadows
Reflecting off the mirror
A motionless quiver
Undaunted creator

Pearls of happiness
Rolling down her cheeks
Those are the lies
You’ll never ever see

The lines have been drawn
Criss-crossing around me
A breach of order
Broken false promises

Desire of perfection
Continues unlimited
Too far too close
Don’t close your eyes

I hide under my blanket
From the evil within
These are my lies
You’ll never ever see again

Nightmare or reality

Speaking to a friend made me realize just now that maybe she had already moved on even before knowing about my lies and confessions. That I didn't have the need to lose everything for her. That I shouldn't have been so naive or stupid to believe her words....I hope not...but I will never know...so numb...

Nightmare or reality
20.05.2010

Getting lost in those eyes
His hand slipping into hers
Shifting himself closer
Intoxicated by her scent
Sensing her nervousness
He wraps his arm around her
She looks at him with hope
If he’ll take care of her
He smiles reassuringly
Everything will be perfect tonight

Lying in bed
Two souls became one
This was there special moment
Something they’ll never forget
She’s never been this happy
He was the only one
He would never let go
She was everything he ever wanted
He asks her to marry him
She says yes...

I open my eyes
Shivering sweating and scared
A nightmare or reality
I do not know
She will never be mine
But I shall still hold on
No one shall ever touch me
Like the way she did
I shall never love the same
Cause I will never forgive myself

Over and over again...

I’ve tried for the past few months to control my anger but yesterday I just lost it and ended up doing something I shouldn’t have. I wish there was a way to take it back but there isn’t, just like the numerous things I’ve done that can’t be fix.

3 years of adjustment for someone else...4 years of memories for me...

I will not shatter...
I will not cry...
I don’t want to let go of this pain
I won’t let you go
These are my memories to keep
You can’t take them away from me
I shall continue to go back in time
To relive the past...
Over and over again...

EDIT: Just realized something....
In my life till now, I've liked/loved three girls. Two whose best friend I became and one who became my girl friend after knowing what I felt about them. Interestingly all of them have regretted or insulted me right before or after kicking me out of their lives. If I was such a bad person, I wonder what made them stick around for such long time in the first place. Anyway it kinda proves that I'm the evil one....

Love
A word
Or a feeling
Said too often
Never truly felt
Selfish meanings
Selfless actions
Sentences
Answers
To questions
Forgotten

Lost
A situation
Or a reaction
Meant to feel
Raw emptiness
Limited breaths
Unlimited pain
Knives
Pencils
All the same
Piercing

Two words
Brought together
A coincidence
Torn apart
Just emotions
Dense lies
Transparent hands
Love lost
Bestowed
Does it matter?
Hurts
