In the darkness of the night,
I rest in the hope
that i'm not tainted
by evil
and will never ever be.
For once evil has
consumed your soul
in its entirety
One is never
oneself anymore.
Tis' impossible to recover
what is lost.
What is said cannot be undone.
Forgiveness
is the only healing thing
that work in the wounds
made by ill-judgement.
Come, let's all forgive.
And we'll all breathe lighter because of it,
this I promise you.
I'm not the type of girl
who cries when something goes wrong.
Other girls shed tears
when they had tasted slight failure.
I just bite my lip,
stare straight ahead,
promising myself to work harder next time.
I won't give it
to my stinging eyes,
showing weakness in front of everyone
juz isn't my thing.
I do not need the pitying eyes
nor do I need the fake words of sympathy.
For they pain me more
than the real cause of pain.
Shining pearls smudging up my face
Something I can do without.
What I really need is a
good kick at the coke machine
or a good kick-boxing session
at the local gym.
Just let me
sweat off the disappointment and anger
of a well-deserved failure.
Remember that you told me
real guys don't cry?
You know what?
Girls like me don't cry either.
I might slam my foot into the wooden door,
getting an excruciatingly pained-toe,
I might punch the washroom mirror
into sparkling shreds.
But listen to my promise
I would never cry
nor shed a tear
in front of an audience,
for sympathy is the last thing i will ever need.
People say---> No War.
I say---> No more crying.
Come closer,
I will bare my soul
and tell you the truth.
I’m not the sort of girl
who needs her Prince Charming
coz there’s no such thing.
Sorry, I don’t believe in fairytales and what-nots.
They are for the very young
and the naïve.
Yes, they may be intriguing
but they will never be enacted in real life.
Is there such a thing as
a practical realistic love story?
If there is, please sign me up.
No hesitation.
I’m searching for true love
that will last
but I don’t dare to believe
that we will “live happily forever”.
I know, I have to be brave,
give you my share of love
but it takes guts
to prepare myself for the “loved and lost” story.
Maybe it is just too much of trouble.
I’m no risk-taker
when it comes to love.
I don’t wanna hurt again
so just let me be at peace
in blissful “singledom”.
No more risks,
No worries,
Resting in peace.
