Today I just I want to play.
Telling myself, “That this day is the best in every way.”
But sadly I cannot
For I need to study a lot.
Since next week is filled with exams
Not wanting myself to cram
On all the subjects for to come.
History of the past
Like time that doesn’t last.
We review and review
And yet there’s nothing new
About the world we live today
Making me sigh every single day.
Man does not learn from his mistakes
Causing the world to shake and quake.
Science studies of the world
Yet sometimes it makes my brain go all whorled
By its endless streams of notion
Like someone giving me a deadly potion.
With all its philosophies about life
That make scientists go on a strife
To search for the great unknown
So that their lives will be made known.
Christian Living is another thing
Which tries to teach people of a king
That is God and a man
Who is known from Sudan to Japan.
Yet, my friend says it’s absurd
Since the bible is old there is no truth in every word.
For my friend says it’s obsolete
So why should we believe on something that we should delete.
Filipino, English and Chinese
I’d careless if I spoke Taiwanese.
I heave a sigh
For my time just passed by.
And I’m sorry for bickering
But alas I can’t stop thinking
Of living a life full of adventure
Never giving up nor surrender.
But sadly reality bites
and because it doesn’t give me any delight.
Wishing to learn the things I wish to learn
And to get things I know I deserve to earn.
For they say I have to study and work hard
Yet, it’s not easy as eating a sweet tart.
For my mind isn’t like yours
It’s something more of course!
Since the only thing that comforts me
Are escapades in my fantasies.
I wish they knew of my anguish
For they think I flourish
In this boring place that has no grace.
Dreams are where my ideal life can be found.
Since this town just bound
Thy soul with no rest.
So I hope and pray that I will certainly pass the test.
