The Flower (take 1)

 

 

 

  So as usual I wanted to do something new, something that is interesting and challenging. Thus I decided to write a poem, a romantic one haha. You know, to prove my versatility and creativeness. Apparently it proves quite the opposite.

Well this is my first try in coming up with a so to speak ‘endearing’ poem. I’d also like to thank Ell, Fiki, Shazni, Diyana and Muna for reading and commenting on it and on giving me tips on how I could make it sound more erm genuine. Needless to say they all had the same opinion, it wasn’t as romantic as they'd like it to be...women :p 

Hence I’ll come up with another before the end of next week. In hope, that it’ll be better than this one…

 

 

Constantly bugged by insects and bees,

Intricate, detailed, oh you eradicate,

Knowing your prize and holding it high,

Annoyance and irate to those who pry

 

For if I had to offer,

I would’ve given thee the stars, the skies, the moon and the sun,

Illogical but hey, one becomes a visionary,

In a trance, in the sensation of love,

One shouldn’t offer something unreal,

But thou, thou delight in hearing such feat

 

Your starry eyes, a mystery to unveil,

A simple stare, could make limbs shiver,

A little smile, would make things better,

Oh thou, subject of aspire.

 

Perfection on the outside,

Meaningless if not in the inside,

Remember thee, the eyes mislead,

Deluding from what lies beneath

 

An immense field, of colorful flowers,

All so pretty and heart warming,

Promises of hope and serenity,

Yet only one causes the  heart to throb,

Obviously different, the heart felt it special.

 

In the vastness of the heavens,

A garden filled with superior colors,

One that causes the heart to shiver,

There was one that stood in splendor,

Giving this man, a sense of desire

 

Witnessing you is envisioning delight,

A dreamer, whom goes beyond boundaries,

To think of things ahead of his life,

Drowning himself in dreams alike

 

Warmth, care, a sense of belongingness,

Security, and to be held tight,

Mutual consent, a deeper understanding

Though worlds apart, they speak the language of  hearts,

That knoweth not disparity, but sincerity and authenticity.

 

To reach a stage beyond aesthetic-ness,

One sees the exterior, but more in within, therein,

For others might not comprehend, yet the hearts stays in power,

That is a sign of a successful joint

Of understanding and love that led adjoin

 

 

 

Pride

It is declared how when one tries to attain intelligence,

He is to grasp astuteness in everything and from everyone,

For an intelligent person finds knowledge in everything,

A cause behind every action and fraction,

 

It is said, when in search of knowledge,

It requires an attitude of openness and modesty,

That comes with strife and with one swallowing his pride,

To obey and abide, in the course of the light.

 

It is also stated, “Do you think that knowing is the same as not knowing?”

Certainly not, though in the peripheral it might appear so,

There is an obvious difference between the two,

The cleverer one gets, the more he realizes the more he ought to know.

 

But when the intellect starts to draw a line,

And seems to start and condescend,

He turns into someone who separates, that segregates,

To differentiate, to disparate and to manipulate his prowess’s,

 

He has lost his fight, to the translucent whispers, to words glorifying the self,

He now feels special, one apart from the norm,

An elitist, a superior being, powerful among others,

To stand out high, in demanding of respect…

 

In reality, he is one that has lost, has failed his test,

To enjoy in the temperament of moment,

For he is now not only discarded, despite the fact that he looks up to himself,

While the people and the servants stare at him in repugnance.    

 

Message

One of the best, most realistic movie I’ve seen in my days. The film comes with a package… of Great music, a good plot and excellent acting. It is a portrayal of people who are addicted and who abuse drugs and its effect regardless of their age and sex. 

It brings you into an in-depth journey on the life of someone whose life is bounded by substance and their train of thoughts. I hope you guys see the whole clip, if you think that the clip itslef is quite intense, wait till you watch the actual movie, if you haven't already that is. I hope I am not exaggerating and taking things too seriously here haha...before I forget the movie is called, “Requiem for a Dream”. Quite an old movie though.

About a Boy

So i was thinking of posting something more lighter and entertaining. I found this clip from an old movie i watched though it's kinda cliche and erm old fashioned perhaps...but i still enjoy watching it.

p.s. i should probably not say this out loud but i am a fan of Hugh Grant's movies hahaha

Heaven or Hell?

There comes a time when people entertain their thoughts and get carried away in a manner in which they shouldn’t get carried away with in the first place. Accompanied by foolishness and doing so for the sake of desperately wanting to discover something or just anything.

 In hope of gaining a new revelation maybe… Only to realize that it was futile, impossible, out of bound and just confirming what they knew all along. Here’s an example of such a thought:

 

The question arises; will one be happy or sad if he lives on forever? What would it feel like?

 

The innate nature of a man is to always adapt, recuperate and constantly in the struggle of making himself feel better than he did the previous second. That is the nature of man.

Having said that, will a person who lives in hell, one day get used to it and not feel as much pain?

And so, will a person who resides in heaven get bored of it and gain the slightest urge to get in to hell?

 

However, the inability of the mind to completely comprehend or to logically explain the meaning of ‘forever’ puts a halt into further poking into the idea.

 

Though for now,  it might appear as if we are going to live forever -- simply because we do not think of death, nevertheless certainly we know that it is anything but forever.

 

For now I guess, I’ll just have to pick a side. Surely one is better than the other.

Come to think about it, this whole so called, ‘rain of thoughts’ proves to be amazingly dumb and nonsensical… especially when something with sense comes to mind like; For a split second of excruciating pain is enough to cause severe pain and lead to one's death…to think that a kind of agonizing pain that could last for more than a mere few seconds, minutes,  hours, a couple of days, months or even years. 

Surely that’ll be like living in hell.

 

Having said that, the meaning of the word ‘forever’ becomes more comprehensible, So yes, in conclusion heaven wins and maybe It’s time to pick a side?
