The Rose

The Rose
by
Adeline Ong (Now officially deemed herself, Queen of Jiwang)

Spring whispers into the garden,
Crimson petals dancing in the wind,
Lingering sweet scent of you,
Or what was once before,
Threading the path untraveled,
Once together now broken,
Crushed jewels upon my feet,
Replaying memories of past,
Lovers of summers long ago,
Tears of years to come,
Hard, sharp thorns of black,
Slowly tearing porcelain white skin,
Marrying my crimson soul within,
With your crimson pride,
Yet I flirt with destiny that never seems,
To come upon angel wings of autumn,
Soon winter will come to bring my slumber,
At last, now and forever more.

Hey You

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Dedicated to all who fear commitment (yours truly included) and things that comes with it…

P.S. This IS a V-Day poem because
a) I am jiwang
b) I am tired
c) I just felt like it because it is that time of the year again
d) I wrote this originally for someone but am too chicken shit to send it to him

Hey you,
Are you staring at the same starry sky tonight?
Hey you,
Are you humming the same tune?
Hey you,
Do you think of me when you are alone? (Because I do)
Hey you,
Are you as afraid as I am? (I am terrified)

Hey you,
I know not what the future brings,
Hey you,
I know not what tomorrow will be,
Hey you,
I know that I want you next to me,
Hey you,
Let’s forget the world, let’s go!!!
