A cat is better than me



You can never teach her tricks
She is her own person
She won’t bend for those empty promises
she won’t wag her tail to please.

Her eyes are alert to her surrounding  
she seems to be in a constant state of meditation
I am sure she sees something I don’t
I am sure her sight goes beyond.

Life seems simple according to her
Each day unfolds like a brand new gift
She doesn’t seem to be weary over her past,
nor does she seem to care about tomorrow.

An incomplete life



Here we here
flowing through the stream of life
there is nothing new
there is nothing undone
things flow through time
like those before me
I follow them and
others me
we are moving in circle
There is no meander  
There is no detour

Yet there is this wanting
yet there is this yearning
There must be more to life
more than this
more than what we see
more than what we comprehend
what is it?
I am yet to learn
I am yet to understand
There were those before us
who took a detour
who seem to  have understood
to be one with the universe
to be at peace with oneself
But as life flows through me
and as life flows through time
I seem to stay in the line
following the mass before me
as they did before them.

A wish, a pray I say
to the void before me
to the depth of my being
surely there must be a way
to take a detour
to meander
to join the few
to be one with the universe.

Meditation



Memories of what's done 
comes sporadic and own its own
I cringe at things with no form.
while I say, ‘it is all in past’
I have dragged them here
like a burden 
I’ve carried it with me.
Things could've been done better
I speculate so otherwise.
How vain and frugal am I
layers of life that I have lived
I let them go
I let them flow.

There are things piled up for tomorrow
Suddenly a new thought rush onto the head
I say I will remember
to write it down before I forget.
A voice then tells me
Leave tomorrow for tomorrow.

Thoughts rush on to the head
like non-stop beating of my heart
while I breath in and out.
Despite the turmoil in my head
how peaceful can this feeling get
just to be in now
to feel the air, flow in and out
I feel a greater acknowledgement
to simple thing that’s called 'a life'.

Tree


There are trees
next to where i live
growing and thriving
 as each season pass
long before you and I

In summer
Green and sheen
Draping the world that’s under
Giving color to the gloom
the love it pours through the atmosphere
is alive within me
as I'm within it.

In autumn
the leaves fades away
into yellow and more
thus it surrender
why can’t I follow suit
to shed and to let go
of things that I hold on to.

In winter
dark and asleep
lost of its splendor
yet majestic and might
across the blue I see through the sky.
waiting, rejuvenating 
a new life within
while we are blind to what we do not see
it'll become anew
in the spring that'll follow soon.

Bottled bubble

Round and round
make another circle
catch the tail
catch its end.

Take an embrace
it'll be alright
wish me there
so I can make a run.

Stop me a while
fool me blind
make me fall
I’ll take this road.

Hear this sound
feel this beat
not of this world
an unheard fiction.

Bottled and canned
rush onto the head
make an escape
make me high.

It’s just a phase
dying slow death
in a clear light
we'll celebrate.

Mother

Sheltered under your warm sun
Shaded from the harms done
My world is better
because I have you.

Your warmth
is a constant comfort
When I know I have you
A smile sits on my face.

Just a thought
Brings a glee inside
You are the summer sun
You are the winter warmth.

If I hold you in
All my worries are undone
If caged in darkness
Your thought light my way.

You are a super human
Comfort to my being
My world is brighter
Because I have you, mother.
