My Own Saga: Mayday

Dear friend,

It's been a while since I last wrote something here. A lot of things happened lately. Let me help you catch up with this poem I wrote and maybe you can help me. You'll see the poem after this letter. Thank you. 

Sincerely,
Zepp

MAYDAY

It started as a tiny seed
It’s planted inside my head
No, it’s not medicinal weed
Unlike what most people said

Then this little seed grew bigger
I watered it with my thoughts
I deemed that it will be better
But my feelings, I have fought

A notion, this bud turned into
And I tried to manage it
But my mind had just lost its screw
And it is about to split

Because now, it is a desire
A scary contemplation
For it is spreading like wildfire
It’s a vicious temptation

I think you are getting a clue
As to what this is about
And I do not know what to do
Right now, I’m giving a shout

What the fuck’s happening to me?
I’ll need a diagnosis
What is this thing I cannot see?
I hope it’s not psychosis

I want to make sense out of this
This phase I am going through
It is not easy to dismiss
This feeling I have for you

Oh God, I want to make it stop
Before I drive myself mad
Or my logic begins to drop
And my days, they might get bad

One Quiet Night

I wrote this one last month. It's an extremely different poem of mine because I wrote it from a different perspective which is from a father's. Of course, I've never been a father yet since I'm young to be one. Once again, if you want to ask for my poems, contact me. Thanks.


ONE QUIET NIGHT

Stars sparkle across the sky
Amidst the vast darkness
Like these glitters in your eyes
Stuck in such a cute mess

It looks like a quiet night
The wind hums you a song
Even without the sunlight
It seems like nothing’s wrong

Lying there in your small bed
Your timid eyes are closed
With these dreams in your young head
You’re happy, I suppose

When the morning comes, I’ll see
Your priceless, earnest face
Your smile means the world to me
Joy binds me in some ways

The world today is spiteful
You’ll understand someday
But you can still be blissful
Just seize your time today

Your little mind can’t perceive
Vexations around us
I’ll take the hurt you’ll receive
To see your beam, I must

Now sleep in your tiny room
Play in your huge dreamland
I’ll shield you from all the gloom
You’ll be safe in my hands

Fruit of My Mistake: Volume 3

This might be the ultimate farewell poem I've ever written. For those who want to borrow my poems or something like that, ask my permission first.


MY MIND’S CURE

Time and fate have kept us apart
I fear our paths will never meet
My mind, defeated by my heart
To bear this feeling in discreet

I told myself not to go back
To the moment I can’t forget
I see that strength is what I lack
And now I look back in regret

There's no more chance to let this out
So I will say this slow but sure
You might know what this is about
I will say this for my mind’s cure

I like you ever since that day
You have been my strong temptation
I hope this is enough to say
You too were my inspiration

Farewells are inevitable
And yet I still hope to see you
Our past has been regrettable
Closure is all I want to do

I don’t want to feel anymore
This like or love or whatever
It’s time to close the open door
I don’t want to let you linger

I’ll move on and leave my feelings
Keep it between you and me
Let this end be a beginning
That is another way to see

There will be no tears to be shed
Let’s not try to find each other
There is nothing left to be said
For this chapter is now over

Fruit of My Mistake: Volume 2

This poem is sort of a sequel to the first poem that you just read. Still talking about the same subject. Not going to drop any entities here. I just wrote it two hours ago while going home from the end of a semester. Once again, for those who wants to use my poems, notify me. Thanks.


REQUIEM FOR THE LAST ILLUSION

Your affection, I will burn
Your feelings, I will throw
From the ordeal, I will learn
Learn not to dwell in sorrow

I will close my eyes
I will cast you away
Spare me from the lies
I will walk my own way

Forgive you, I will strive
And time will keep me
Without you, I will survive
Even with the faults in me

Now I will lay to rest
All my tears, I have shed
Before the pain kills my chest
From the scars I have bled

Fruit of My Mistake: Volume 1

This is the first time I'll post a poem here since the blog is starting to rot. Who reads it anyway? It was written two or three weeks ago, I think. One of the fruits of my mistake, I must say. For those who wants to use my poem in some way, ask my permission. Please.


SENTIMENTS FOR THE LAST ILLUSION

Can you be my last illusion?
Will I be your final dream?
Put an end to this delusion
Before it goes beyond it seems

Running in my mind
Leaving many footprints
No wonder I can’t leave you behind
Though I try to give you a hint

One look at your eyes
That gaze I seek to break
Let my feelings run dry
So you, I won’t forsake

Let me numb myself
To this sentiment of yours
I will not need any help
And shall you not exert any force

It’s better this way
No hearts will ache
No tears and pain will stay
In this step I’m about to take
