I saw in my dreams we are lifeless,
And lie with a look so tranquil.
A pair of white, white coffins
Set side by side in peace.

When was it, we uttered: "Let's stop it!"
When was it and what does it mean?
But strangely, my heart is not ailing,
My heart is not down with grief.

Powerless feelings are weird,
Frozen thoughts are so clear,
Your lips are no longer dear,
But retain their eternal bliss.

So it happened: we both are lifeless,
And lie with a look so tranquil.
A pair of white, white coffins
Set side by side in peace.

...summer heat
and the days are too long
nights are even worse
without you in my song
how can I ever sing if you're not along?

oh, of days spent before
instead I find, you no longer at my door
drag of passage of time without you

maybe..it was love
now leaves are changing in the wind
doing the new low down...
down low

went down to the infirmary
thought that I might see you
...and say goodbye
but I was the coldest one there

you weren't removed from life
...just, my life
gone only from me

miss your eyes, your laugh, your honesty
tearful chuckle of your childlike humor
weighted down by your intense caring
...goodbye love

The banquet hall had been prepared,
the brides new home was done.
The father of the bridegroom smiled
at his only son.
"I'm well pleased with you," said he
" Now go and bring your bride to me!"

He climbed upon his snow white steed
and galloped to the gate.
The golden gates of Paradise,
His father,Gods' estate.

With arms outstretched and love filled heart
he cried out to his bride.
The shofar sounds,the earth resounds
"Come hither and abide!"

The graves in earth were opened wide,
the non-believers stayed inside.
Believers that were living still
were caught up at the bridegrooms will.

The stony hearts were turned to flesh
their tears were wiped away
The bride will see the bridegroom
on ressurection day!

I cannot drop some tears,
even if they are for you;
I have ever seen that pain
again and again in the time.

I cannot do something for you,
I cannot be there if I want;
what a cruelty of having away
someone that you really care.

One night you wanted to be here
to wipe my tears away,
one night I wanted to be there
to be in silence by your side.

You said you feel better,
believing that you are a lonely star;
a world that no one can enter,
untouchable,fortress of ice.

Damn and perverse twin;
yout tears are dark,
invisible and deep
and I drink each one of them.

I´ll drink them like a poisonous blood
until I get drunk of you,
then your memory will be gone
within my veins and dark soul.

The night is burdened with a presence,
A presence lurking to steal innocence,
Innocence so good and pure,
This night he plans to kill for sure.
Slowly, surely, he stalks the night,
Looking for the perfect woman to fight,
The fight never lasts too long,
For these girls, he is too strong.
He takes them down to a special place,
No one can see their pain-stricken face,
No one can hear the agonizing screams,
Far worse than in your scariest dreams.
He takes the bodies where no one can find,
If they do, it will take some time,
He's taken another mother from her child,
And when he has that thought....he smiles.
He smiles thinking of the pain he has caused,
Something only Lucifer would applaud,
He thinks of all the women in the past,
His maniacal grin, the thing they see last.

My last night here
Some quality time
Spent with my old friends
Say yes to a beer
Swallow it down
Continue the trend
Follow it up
With a few shots of bourbon
Then count to ten

Cause hearts get broke
And lives will change
Most keeping praying
But few are saved
I can see it all now
In my last seconds
Spent with alcohol

Will ole Jack even know?
He's one of my old friends
Will he know I'm gone
Jim do ya care?
You're staring at an empty chair
Do ya care I'm all alone

Cause hearts get broke
And lives will change
Most keep praying
But few are saved
I can see it all now
In my last seconds
Spent with alcohol

Sometimes I wonder why
The heroes fade away
You can numb your mind
But the pain will always stay

Cause hearts get broke
And lives will change
Most keep praying
But few are saved
I can see it all now
In my last seconds
Spent with alcohol

Your eyes go sad.You'er not
Listening to what I say.
They doze,dream,fade out.
Not listening.I talk away.

I tell what I've told,out of listless
Sadness,so often before...
I think you never listened,
So you'er away you are.

All of a sudden,an absent
Stare,you look at me,still
Immeasurably distant,
You begin a smile.

I go on talking.You
Go on listening-your own
Thoughts you listen to,
The smile as good as gone,

Until,through the loafing
Afternoon's waste of while,
The silence self-unleafing
Of your useless smile.




Smile for me
Smile for you :)

Just because I am from Singapore,
Does not mean I am Alien!
Just because I live with my mother,
Does not mean I am a mummy's boy,
Just because I am lonely,
Does not mean I am desperate!
(But I am)
Just because I am short ,
Does not mean I cant get taller girls,
Just because I am different,
Does not mean I am not human.
Just because I write poems,
Does not mean I am boring.
Just because I am obese,
Does not give you a right to ridicule me!
I am not tall,not smart,not even intellectual ,
But you will find ,a funny,friendly,caring,honest,sincere,faithful,romantic guy inside,
Trying to get out and be what I am and not just because you said
so...

He doesn't say too much.
he's sometimes quiet that way..
He's broody and sometimes moody..
But to me it's just ok...
Because Daniel has a heart of gold..
Not sure really how it is I know..
I haven't know Daniel very long..
And yet he inspires me, makes me want to write this song..
And I want to know everything about him...
I want to know what makes him tick, what it is that
burns him to the ground....
And I want to know Daniel... if I make you smile..
Because you know Daniel, with you..
I'd walk that extra mile.. just to have you around..
Just to see you through... just to hold your hand..
Because I feel when I'm with you...
like I'm in Disneyland...
You make me smile... you make me feel like,
I've never felt before..
And I want to be your friend , and sometimes
There's nothing I want more..
So talk to me, won't you Daniel...
Please don't be afraid... I know you're hurting ,
And I am hurting too..
But sometimes you just have to suck it up..
And stay.....
Won't you stay Daniel...
Please don't run away...
That's what people like us do...
We always run away... so afraid of being hurt ..
So afraid to let our feelings show..
But if you stay Daniel... I promise to never leave..
I'm not going to go..
Not going anywhere.. unless you want me to..
I'm here, for you... for as long as you want me to be......
Because Daniel you are someone...
Special to me..
You're somethin' special..
Special to me.
So won't you stay..
Daniel.
Daniel won't you stay.with me.

She told me to let go it's not that I haven't tried
To get past all the darkness keeping me from the light
When I wake up in the morning before the sunrise
I'm still trapped in this nothing that I've kept inside
So don't be alarmed that I'll have to lie
When you ask if Im ok and I say that Im fine
It's to keep me from falling to pieces or falling too deep
To not see their dead faces when I go back to sleep
I thought it'd get better, but it only gets worse
And the older I get the more echoes are stirred
But please understand I need to clear the air
Free from suggestions and not living in fear
My first defense and armor are my skin and my bones
So I sandblasted my flesh then tore down the walls from my home
Now my friends and my family can see where I've been
I wear this all on my sleeve theres no need to pretend
I've battled addiction, myself, and the end
I fought with my demons, but I didn't win
If I ever felt peace that part of me died in sand
Trapped with the lives that I cannot give back
If you believed theres a Heaven than how would you feel
To know that nothing could save you from going to hell
I should have said this all sooner and made you aware
Because I'll choke to death if I don't clear the air
