003. Black is still a colour






Somedays, it is pitch black. 
Somedays, it is full of rainbows.
Either way, I am alive.
There is a heart beating inside. 

I woke up on a darker day, putting on a fight.
It is a war, war against myself. 
Tears are shed, blood is boiling.
It is suffocating, It is dark.
Hey, I think I need a light. 

When the day is full of colours,
Breathing in bright and shining colours,
Hopping around freely,
My heart is immensely full,
Please, keep the day going. 

Little did I know,
Black is still a colour
I am a blank canvas, 
open wide to be painted

Black, pink, blue, yellow,
It doesn't matter,
When I'm painted,
It is still me.
The same heart is still beating.

Black can be prettier,
Maybe the black will help other colours inside me shine,
It is just another colour that will be on canvas,

I'm going to embrace it and appreciate it,
Because art is not meant to perfect,
But to be appreciated,
Maybe someone will appreciate the black on me.

002. Broken




Why?
Why am I the broken one?
Waking up, feeling suffocated
Sitting around feeling lifeless
Sleeping with pictures in my mind. 

I think I am a broken piece
Trying to find me in different pieces
Scatters all over  the places
Trying to glue me together
Oh well, I am still broken.

I feel sick,
My heads throbbing
My hearts feel like crying
My throat is sore
My body is aching
I don't remember the days I don't feel sick.

Sometimes I can never register feelings in my heart
It left me in confusion and I got lost
I don't know what awaits me
and it scares me to face the reality.

Am I broken? 
Putting on a face to be everyone's favorite 
Ignoring a soul that screaming to be remembered 
When it's just me and the soul
Everything crumbles away
Oh, poor soul, I am sorry.

Pain, go away
I am trying my best  
Turning this broken piece into a beautiful flower
Facing the scary reality
Aids the forgotten soul
It is all because I am broken.
