Why Don't You Tell Me

Write down every memory
That I have of you
On a piece of paper
And tuck it away neatly

Write down every single thought
That I have of you
I'll write them on all these walls
I know that it's not a lot

If I could take every colour
To paint a picture
Of your beauty and grace
That you've shown in this place
It will never be enough

If I could take every melody
To sing a harmony
Of your gentleness and love
It will never be enough
It will never be enough

Why don't you tell me
How do you feel about all my dreams now?
Why don't you tell me
That you hear me crying

Why don't you tell me
How do you feel about all my dreams now?
Why don't you tell me
That you're near...

He is for you.

Swept along

In a world that’s dancing

to a meaningless beat

The current is strong

Can you hold on

To the one song

Your heart used to sing.

Your ideals

Swayed by reality

Your goals

Now lack clarity

Be still and know

You, in your world,

orbiting a star -

one of the millions

in a galaxy -

one of the millions

in the universe,

are loved.

By none other

than the Creator.

Not Enough

Sore limbs

Bruised knuckles

Bloody eyes

Ragged breath

Jagged teeth

Man in motion

As fluid as poetry

Senility of the sentry

Residing in the sanctum

Sanctions and semantics

Cerebellum cerebella

Erasing data

Like an impulsive medula oblongata

Itchy chin

Explosion of emotions

Tired of these songs

On this boring radio

Mesti Mau

Walau jauh kau menjelajah alam semesta
Ku tahu jawapannya
Walau apa jua rintangan yang melanda
Kita sudah siap sedia

Luahkanlah isi hatimu
Agar kita bersama
Kuatkanlah pendirian
Bila kita hadapi dunia

Yang ku mahu hanyalah kamu
Bersamamu selalu whoa oh
Jauh jelajah kau kelana
Kita kan tetap bersama

Bila lidah hakimi ketika berbicara
Engkau tak perlu gusar
Ku kenali warna hatimu yang sebenar
Tak usah pura-pura

Cekalkanlah isi hatimu
Hadapi dugaanNya
Kuatkanlah pendirian
Agar dunia milik kita bersama

Yang ku mahu hanyalah kamu
Bersamamu selalu whoa oh
Jauh jelajah kau kelana
Kita kan tetap bersama

"Mesti Mau" by Pesawat (used in Twisties ad)

Can't Stand

A song I composed in the solitude of Brunei, where friends and family (and at that time lover) were out of reach. Perhaps, someday, I will video myself and post it on YouTube or something.

****

The orange glow from the setting sun

Crawls up your soft arms

You look at me with those beautiful eyes

And capture me once again

The purple skies and radiant stars

Remind me of your gentle voice

I draw you close enough to hear your breath

But still, you're just a dream

And you've got me sitting here

Thinking about

You

I want to hold your hand

I want to hear your laugh

I can't stand

These lonely days without you by my side

I can't wait

To see your face again

I can't stand

These lonely nights without you by my side

I can't wait

To hear your stories

I miss you

Second Hand Seven

Grab a helium-filled balloon

It could be blue

So it could hide among the skies

Take a jump and never look down

Let's fly and fly to the moon

If you're tired then let's rest

A tight slumber up in the clouds

But meanwhile I'm in bed

Itchy uniform and pin in my wrist

Sounds a lil silly

But still it was something she said to me

That Seven is a magic number

Now as I'm about to close my eyes

I start wonder

About this Seven the Magic Number

Can I just get one for myself?

Like my sky-blue balloon

I won't mind even if it was

A Second Hand Seven
