Alarm of Death

31st December 2012, Monday, 4:01 p.m.-4:06 p.m., in my hostel room (319, H06, Desasiswa Bakti Permai) in USM, Penang

Death almost greeted me again,
She cooked and left the room;
The alarm quickly long rang,
A security guy came to look,
Inquiring and knocking,
Wandering and smelling;
Found out the thing burning,
Thank you authority for saving.

Cry to Love

Cry to Love: Written originally by Jennifer Soh Li Wen, 14th December 2012, Friday, at 3:10 a.m.-4:09 a.m., in my hostel room, USM, Penang, Malaysia, dedicated to my Mass Comm, USM ex-colleague Yugeetha Balan :”)

This isn’t the only road,
This isn’t the only boat;
I’ve kissed before a toad,
I still see a handsome prince in coat.

When life eats up your desire,
When your car loses its tire;
As long as your heart is on fire,
You’re able to fix any wire.

Why do we have to cry to laugh?
Why do we have to trust to bluff?
There’s light in the dark,
We just have to let it spark.

Define yourself,
Up to today;
Tidy up your shelf,
Make yourself a way.

Friends met,
Lessons get;
Masters set,
Wages Nett,
Cages pet,
Payments debt;
Success bet,
Tunnels jet.

My dear Yugeetha,
You’ve come so far;
Just look at who you are,
A bright twinkling sunny star,
You gave me lifts with your car,
We have travelled most on tar;
Verbal sharing of more than a jar,
We know USM life isn’t just a chocolate bar.

Do we have to cry to love?
Do we have to lie to cover up?
No matter how much hurt,
These are good experiences filling each’s cup.

I apologize for being late,
For my promise has been made;
This poem is my gift for you,
It’s the best that I could do.

I’ll never forget your kindness,
You led me through my blindness;
I’m grateful for your sharpness,
For my flaws you don’t mind witness.

I pray and hope,
Everything you can cope;
Fragrant as the floral soap,
Climbing the chosen rope.

Don’t be like me,
You’ve your own destiny;
Be who you want to be,
God’ll give you if you dream big.

I’m glad to meet you,
Nice knowing you;
You comforted my blue,
You live life in true.

Although temporary,
Because I lari;
Believing in secondary,
A new tale and hari.

Forgive me,
I’m not an example to be;
I recorded a new history,
I’ve been living in fear and worry.

Never knew I’d end 2012 like this,
Real food I’ve been missing;
I must know my bliss,
My feet need dancing.

It’s late now,
I humbly bow;
Give yourself a wow!
Moo better than a cow,
You showed and taught me how,
Simple and happiness just allow;
Stand firm like an owl,
At any second-minute-hour.

Do keep in touch,
Thank you and sorry very much;
It’s time for me to fly,
But this’ll never mean goodbye.

Leaving,
Meaning;
Blessing,
Timing.

All the best,
Do your best;
God handles the rest,
Build your own nest.

Goodnight and sweet dreams,
My bed is calling me;
No matter how tough it seems,
I’m sure you can do it!

Margy Psychology


Margy Psychology: Written originally by Jennifer Soh Li Wen, 10th December 2012, Monday, at 2:52 a.m.-3:11 a.m., in my hostel room, USM, Penang, Malaysia

Here is Margy,
Trying to understand orgy;
She’s just ordinary,
Nothing contrary,
Loves forestry,
Searches tapestry;
Living in a country,
Listening to Daughtry,
Body as hairy,
Removing temporary;
Growing to finery,
Tasting winery,
Learning bakery,
Financing recovery;
Loving is free,
Yet so scary,
To God be the glory,
Remembering Larry;
Recalling Harry,
Heart feeling weary,
Poor little Margy,
Testing her psychology;
Challenging bravery,
Fierce like Halle Berry,
Sweet like Shortcake Strawberry,
Wishing for a puppy;
Wanting to be happy,
Welcoming positivity,
Trying any activity,
Saving privacy;
Protecting body,
Hoping to be sexy,
Dressing foxy,
What could she be?
What is she to be?
Calling a taxi,
It’s time to leave,
Turning a new leaf;
Eating vege and beef,
Windy air a sniff,
Biting a creep,
Swimming Ocean deep;
The machine shouts a beep,
She has fallen to sleep.
