I remember when I was younger, I asked my parents for a dog, But they immediately refused and handed me a fish catalogue.I don't exactly remember the first fish I had,Though I wanted more of its comrades.I still remember the day my first fish died,I wonder how its family felt to not have her anymore…

Art Challenge: Day 1-3
I recently finished posting the first three days for my art challenge. It included the first prompt which was the lollipop, then the Halloween special monster and lastly, more candy which was the candy canes. You probably would know by now that I really enjoy sweet things and that's why I incorporate them in my…
Candy Cane
Tied to you through an invisible chainI wonder if I can get far away from you on an airplaneAs we sit by the sea, watching the trainPassing by, eating your favourite candy cane. Your anger, our downfallPulling me closer, won't make you small.My pillow stained every nightA hug won't heal this tonight. If you, hear…
Eerie
Have you ever thought where the real monsters are?Not under our beds, they have raised their bars.When you lie alone, awake;Can you feel that aberrant ache?Deep inside your chest; slithering; encapsulating in the mouth of a snake. Every night, red eyes surround me,No longer safe, I drown in their shallow sea. Mumbling to myself, suffocating…
Sugar Rush

Visiting my favourite shop, standing peacefully in the sunRun run run, after getting all work doneTo relive a dream, satisfying this sugar rushCaramels, gummy fish, chocolate, even licoriceAvailable without any prejudice. Mindfully gauging them…

To My Self, My Saviour
'Younger me, wished upon a star Wanting to fly, go so farSitting comfortably in a flying carAway from my peers, to an existence so non-bizarreEating half-price diner caviarSleeping on a rocking chairDreaming about freedom anywhereSinging using a microphone made of kitchenwareAll this is becomes my midnight affairA dreamland journey, seeking respect, Something my mind can't…
Accepting Yourself
The silence of the night makes me wonder;my thoughts are deep, my voice quite tender.I look up at the sky and take a deep breathBefore letting myself get hypnotised by the sudden onset of spiritual death.Noticing the truth about my cowardly behaviour as I hide away in a corner like a benign creature,I feel the…
Slow Progress, One Element At A Time
Drawing is hard. No matter what anyone tells you. Ask this to someone who has recently started drawing regularly. I really felt like my hands just couldn't accommodate themselves to draw even proper straight or curved lines. In my last post, you saw what my first drawing was after years of neglecting this skill. I…
