Elegy

Wilderness

The lack of oxygen makes suffocation

The lack of food makes famine

The animals are dying of starvation

The people are dying of shortage

At least people had an enjoyment

At least the animals can survive

Once it was a great land of excitement

This land wasn’t really afflictive

This land is nothing but an empty place

It’s a place where there can’t be living

Animals are trying to beat the race

It is the race of surviving

This ain't my life with no friends and no care
This will be your life with no friends, no care
When I'm tired and lonely, no friends.
When I'm feeling lost and scared, no care.

The time that I need friends and care was,
and the time I need them desperately is,
going to be very regretful about it

I blame this to no one but for me
I will not blame this to anybody but me
I'll be cremated without friends and care
I will blame myself even in the afterlife.

This ain't my life with no friends and no care
This will be your life with no friends, no care
When I'm tired and lonely, no friends.
When I'm feeling lost and scared, no care.

I have lot of MONEY

but yours is bigger than mine

however, I have an advantage that

you can not earn it by simple

It's the effort

I think you always play game during the school

while i'm reading textbook

and concentrating on teacher's voice

I say this is the effort that I make!

you seemed not concentrating on teacher's voice

that's why you get a 'D' for your writing class!!

Focus on writing your poems!!!!

Love starts when two sparks are ignited same moment
Once the sparks are ignited and grow largely
Then ‘boom‘ the fire explodes with the sound that's bit lament
Oh Love is so complicated in such way

Long time passes and the love becomes real
Some loves can’t be true because they are lonely
Love is so complicated and it's not mere
Young people just like have fun and enjoy

Never be together though will spark at row
No love will lit up by something flammable
Only true loves will ignite at same rod
There, the law said love is so undefinable

Love starts when two sparks are ignited same time
Then ‘boom’ the fire explodes with the sound rhyme

Haiku!!!

Drops are moving to,

The winner will fall down

Drops are moving there

Finally it ends

Storms are gone now forever

Its new day

They look very good

They were friends

Now they aren’t friends

Feelings and Experiences…

I walked out of way

Because I wanted to do

So I did walk out

Whenever I felt

I was wrong about that thing

Now I know that’s wrong

Ballad Assignment

4 Stanzas with 8-10 syllabus for each lines

I met a group of people trying to threaten a boy

I showed up like a hero and verbally forced to let them go

I still remember when that boy said he’s name was Roy

That moment I realized I was a hero

I always like to help others when they are in need

I don’t like being bullied by someone

I like to solve problems that haven’t solved.

Especially when it’s about relationship with anyone.

I just have in mind that I want to be a hero

I don’t have sympathy toward a bad guy

I don’t like people assessing my attitude as zero

I always think that bad people lie

I met a group of people trying to threaten a boy

I showed up like a hero and verbally forced to let them go

I still remember when that boy said he’s name was Roy

That moment I realized I was a hero
