poem 3 :)
I witness Admiration;
A webpage of aesthetic appears
Faded colors of corroded spears
Pointed at the crazy mosaic I know,
indelible writing of my diaristic memo
Washi tapes, stickers, and pastel photos of me
Please be wary of falling debris
I spot Apathy;
It's a funny thing to see
As their stone cold eyes bury me,
bearing poison, leaking with glee
Enchantment of lush lotuses might be the key
Calamitous love that I could not foresee
Please be wary of falling debris
I catch sight of Anxiety;
Hundred stacks of opulent attires
lifeless and lethal just like phantom fires
I cannot attempt to adorn myself with it
They stare me down as I'm forced to submit
Wrapping me up, suffocating yet free
Please be wary of falling debris
I finally meet Acceptance;
With warm blood flowing from Her dainty hands
and sampaguitas emerging from the great lands
My body has burned and turned cold as centuries fade
I was admired, became apathetic, and was afraid
But now in Her embrace, under the Sullen Tree
I don't have to worry about falling debris
