I AM A CLAY
          
          In the beginning there is a potter
          Potter who is great
          Great as He made the earth
          Earth where this unsophisticated clay was trying to fit in.
          
          In a world that is full of great porcelain
          Porcelain that symbolizes prosperity
          Prosperity that makes a man persevere
          Persevere-- the only hope of simple clay.
          
          Clay who is made with a reason
          Reason that has a great purpose
          Purpose not to harm the clay,
          Clay-- whom the potter loves unconditionally.
          
          Unconditionally He molds the sticky clay,
          Clay that was once destroy
          Destroy-- the only weapon of her enemy
          Enemy that made this clay strong.
          
          Strong and Almighty her potter is
          Is there anyone whom she'll fear?
          Fear that is only a hindrance
          Hindrance blocking-- to be a PORCELAIN.

YOU
          
          Freeing all the fluid in my eyes,
          The heart that turned into an ice,
          Feet that nowhere to go,
          Walking and walking and walking,
          Oh please! Lead me to a place
          Where I’ll allow these feelings to let go! ---
          Am I not worthy enough to love and be loved?
          Am I contented enough to be left out?
          Am I that loud to be an annoyance?
          Or mute to be ignored?
          Walking and walking and walking,
          Oh feet, where do you think you’ll go? 
          Where? Please! Not in a place where I’ll only feelrejections.
          It hurts--- don’t wanna go back in pretentions!
          Walking and thinking and walking..
          And weeping and hurting and weeping..
          Walking til the cold wind cuddled me,
          And guide me to a beautiful spot!
          Spot where this worst feelings vanished!
          Chirping bird.. Whooshing wind.. Dewy air…
          River flowing like a murmuring music,
          It made me feel sick!
          Sick of crying.. Tired of meditating
          Till tranquility rested on my head..
          Thank YOU--- YOU who leads me here..
          YOU--- who knows all that I need..
          Even though I forgot to call YOU, YOU are still with me..
          With the help of your superb creations---
          Made me realize that I am not alone..
          Not a loner anymore.
          YOU--- who came to my RESCUE.
