Occupied

The Hope that rises
is always destroyed by the creator...
A strong force of determination
which cannot be deferred
and yet:
The machines have taken over
Taken over:
Your life and indirectly mine as well...

Light at the end of a Tunnel

Today I'm completely broken...

Inside I'm mentally exhausted and all energy drained out... Misunderstood and rejected! Left to fend for myself, and
Myself only. The ones I thought I had faith in only end up as disappointment, and it is only my shadow and I sharing alliance in standing tall above the rest!

Like a wilting rose I slowly bend towards a direction but the morning sun refuses to hide behind the clouds even when the rain continues to pour... Beaming with much anticipation I'm lifted in spirit but it doesn't last long! The feeling of impermanence and letting go was all I could wait for as it slowly disappeared behind a huge patch of dark clouds...

Am I alone? Or is my shadow still with me? At least, I haven't lost my identity nor fell through the cracks of the ground like the rest. No wonder I was born on a brighter, early, dew drop morning, with birds chirping, and flowers slowly opening up their buds... It was a morning more beautiful than the rest of the days that were ever seen!

What's Your Role?

"It is from numberless diverse acts of courage and belief that human history is shaped. Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lot of others, or strikes out against an injustice, he sends forward a tiny ripple of hope, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring those ripples build a current which can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and resistance..."

The Tale of Woe

In my quest for the unreachable I find myself in complete solitude
a darkness all of a sudden surrounded by mist
a journey undertaken to an unknown destination.
For there was a small room in the corner
and my place between the thorns
above all the gladiators and the heroes
I stood tall above the rest.

Oh! how I wish to have been floating
amongst the brightest of them stars,
With feelings beyond any other feeling
incomparable and immeasurable...
the dampness of the rain and the luscious citrus
all seemed to have mesmerized me
So I sat there bare and unclothed.

Leaping forward towards the highest peak
I often find myself tumbling clumsily
A hero is all there is to it
But what good is he if he is never around?
So I try to pull myself up unable to gasp for air
Failure and disappointment to live,
There and then i stopped breathing...

Thus, even the sun stopped shinning
shying away behind the dark nimbus clouds.
The rain started to pour continuously
and I was left amongst the mud and dirt
Completely naked for nature to bury me
Or wait for my Hero to come find me...
Would it be too late by then?

Coronation Cup 2012

Yet again, the most favourite sport tournament of the year is starting early this march where teams battle to be crowned the next Coronation Champions... Hopefully this year, in the girls division, Team Mystiques do not take the title and we 'Pamos' do as Mystiques have been winning for almost 10 years now in a row and prove to be tough competition for the girls bracket while in the men's division 8 strong teams have been seeded into 4 different pools and they play their first games commencing from Thursday 5 pm onwards.
