Please Don’t Runaway…please…

Tuesday, January 9th, 2007

 As the flames were lit,
    Everybody rushed back,
They take cover 5 meters away,
    To ensure we’re playing safe.

    It blew with sparks and colors,
They are so radiant,
    Not the crackers I meant,
But the smiles on their faces.

Another cracker was lit,
    My cousin threw it away,
As I shut my eyes and ears,
    Everything began to fade.

    I could feel my fear,
My heart thumping against my chest,
    I could feel my body hurling forward,
In the distant future I stare.

In my fragile little body,
    Layered by unseen tangled web,
Year by year as I grew up,
    That smile began to subside.

    I was numb in the future,
Just as I am right now in the past.

I was oblivion towards my surroundings,
    Not knowing anything around me,
Knowing it,
    Just makes me feel guilty.

    The more the truth came out,
The more the mist cleared out,
    I feel hopeless and fragile,
I feel stupid sometimes.

Can’t take charge for there’s rules,
    Can’t take actions for it’s no use.

    Blackened from the truth,
Driven from the seed of hate,
    Being alone and confused,
Losing every step you make.

I already tried to do what I can,
    I can’t change people’s hearts,
I can’t,
    No, I can’t!

    Your life is up to you,
Which you chose not to do,
    May God be with you,
And may He shed some light upon you.

Please tell me you’ll be back,
    Please let it be at that,
Don’t runaway anymore,
    Please just be with me once more!
