Just for a While

Pull the oars
And let us afloat;
Lie back on board
And bask in the sun.
Just for a while.
Forget the pain
And let me kiss you;
Play make-believe
And savor the lie.
Just for a while.
Before we reach
The shore of reality
Where we've chosen
Different sand to step on.

PROJECT ALEX 02: PATAHLAHATI

Mari, tikamlah jantungku!
Pastikan detaknya tiada
S’bab sakit itu
Sayat lukalukaluka
S’tiap tarikan nafasku.
Enggan lagi ‘tuk rasa.
Hancur kini kedokku;
Cukup sudah purapura.
Bunuh aku…
Lekas!

PROJECT NOVENIA 02: Falling

Your eyes are the ocean;
And I'm drowned in it.

How can I want so much

something
I know so little of?

Your touch is the wet sand;
And I'm wrapped in it.
How can I miss so much
something
I have never had?

Your lips are the cool breeze;
And I'm swept in it.
How can I reap so much
something
I haven't sown before?

PROJECT YANI 02: A Boy and I

"What does it mean to hope?"

The world shall end in fire;
The sky shall crumble down.

"What does it mean to hope?"

We shall be forsaken, forgotten;
Blood, tears, heartaches shall await.

"But, what does it mean to hope?"

A tree shall survive the fire;
A new sky shall form back.
All ordeals shall pass
And life shall live on.

"So, what does it mean to hope?"

Growing yourself into a man,
Yet keeping your heart a boy.

PROJECT ALEX 01: Damned Sisters

Dear Sisters, let's feast!
'Till the dawn breaks,
'Till we have to hide
Beneath this fake flesh
And pretend to the world
That our hearts do beat
And we too can bleed.
Once more, the night is ours.
Let's dance the stars away!
And perhaps we'll consume the moon?
To confuse the sun of course!
So tonight shall never end.
We're simply feral vultures,
Trying to be demure doves.
For what? Love?
Ha! It belongs not to us!
Only to mankind, Dear Sisters.
We nocturnes have naught but
This damned pit of sorrows.
Never can we walk in the light
As skeletons that we are.
Daytimes are never ours...
Come, Sisters!
Drink from my tears
And let's own the night!

PROJECT ANDDY 01: For You

Will I see you there?
Amidst the clouds,
Beyond the tree tops,
Will you be there?

Searched through the valley,
Dived through the oceans,
Waiting for the prophecy,
Wondering what it means…

The sky is the answer,
And ‘tis the only place
I’ve not come to face
For I always fear her.

I’m simply an earthworm,
Have no feathers to fly
When I’m forced to die
Once I slip out of form.

But, will I find you?
I shall wriggle and slither
To the highest peak up there
If ‘tis what I am to do.

Only tell me truly
That you’ll be there
For I can never bear
The risk of falling idly.

PROJECT NOVENIA 01: Forbidden

Forever…
That’s what you promise me.
Beneath these dying branches,
Among these pink petal storms,
With an unearthly soulfully kiss,
You seal the deal of immortality.
No regrets can be made
For the promise can be unbroken.
I have you, what can I want?
We shall share the damnation.
Let them cast us out of Eden.
I need those wings no more.
I have you, what can I want?
The wrathful flame may burn us,
The merciless pain may inflict us,
Never-ending punishment.
Yet, for us time stops there:
One autumn when the dawn breaks,
Surrounded by cherry blossoms,
Shedding their tears for us,
Who found love unblessed by fate,
Who are cursed by the unity,
Forever…

PROJECT YANI 01: Once Blossomed

Her back flat against the ground,
Drowned in a puddle of mud
And freshly slashed blood.
It's over... finally.
She won!
Her enemy called Life
Is now dying,
Here in the lowest ravine.
She's one of them after all:
Those tiny green plants
Whose puny roots
Can penetrate any rock
So long as there is light.
She arches her head
As she bids farewell
To the world never true.
Oh, she had lost her Light.
Her leaves now begin to dry,
Her roots soon shall die.
No regrets...
At least she blossomed once.
