Broken China

Some would think would be a limit to the madness I exude. Only two days ago, I received my first burst of frenzied thought which closely followed the starting winter maladies. Today, a sudden onset of deranged laughter occurred in my Chinese class. Though, friends in the class would argue the laughter was for goodContinue reading “Broken China”

Conversations in my head

Hello world (wide web)! It’s been a while – so long that I don’t remember the last thing I posted. It’s not even because I was procrastinating, honest! Usually, blogs start and its owner will have the nerve to stop posting one day. They start off strong, but the code eventually stops and you findContinue reading “Conversations in my head”

Orange Brick Wall

I bet you have never thought about answering that icebreaker question, “What is your favourite time of day?” with much thought; To be honest, neither have I, Until very recently. As I come home in the afternoon on Sundays I reminisce about the car ride conversations That I have had, and that I just hadContinue reading “Orange Brick Wall”

Melancauliflower

If you could describe Sadness, What would she look like? Perhaps, she is the lady in black Holding onto her grievances, Telling herself that she still lives Yet, carries around a carcass Unassuming and unknowing. Perhaps, she is the little girl Who saw her dog pass in her arms, In denial of the accident atContinue reading “Melancauliflower”

God only knows how long she stood there deciding -it was a duration long enough for the cashier to ask her “what would you like to order?” twice, only for her to brush themContinue reading “Silent Observer”

Love is…

Only a fool believes Love is weakness or strength, exclusively. The bane of one’s existence, Blinded by rays of false security, Without admitting it dictates strength, When selfless and honest. Only a fool believes Love can only be between lovers. To remember a special moment And occasionally spoil another, To look back after an argumentContinue reading “Love is…”

Little Boy Pride

Little Boy Pride Makes a name in vain, Eyed by cohorts of envy And classes of shallow lamenters. In rooms of achievement, Silent sneers concealed By his Shadow – Expectation fueled his desire. Anglican choir; still sins remain, Peaks of misgivings And Pride’s bane. Girls’ eyes glint of curiosity, Puppets of greed for stability ToContinue reading “Little Boy Pride”

Retrospection

Socrates once said that knowledge is the one good of the world, and ignorance, the evil. To continue ignoring the inconvenient truths we are told and deny our ignorance is folly. Open your ears and hear, and never let arrogance stand in the way of conversations. The aim of art is to represent not theContinue reading “Retrospection”
