Bits

Ever seen a closet without a door?
A shirt inside that tore?
Ever seen such claws that leave
Such horrifying marks no one would ever believe?

Ever seen trees without leaves?
during winter, or late autumn, it seems
Ever seen how much it trembled in the cold?
How it had to shed it's leaves, doing as it's told?

Ever seen an old cottage near a neighbourhood house?
torn and tattered like an old blouse
Strong and hard it stands tall and proud
still complains received from neighbours 'cos it screams too loud

Ever seen a torn teddy bear
which damage is beyond repair?
Ever tried joining it back together
But fail again and again in one way or another?

Ever seen a broken heart
scattered on the floor, a million pieces?
Or are we just worlds apart
Only too distant that all we see are our differences?

On that day

On that day when we first met
did you remember what you did for me?
That very day when we were both wet
Because I first was then you gave me your umbrella, but I refused?

On that day when we first spoke to each other
did you remember what you first said?
That very day when we had a cup of coffee together
& insisted very much that you paid?

On that day when you first helped me
did you remember what you did for me?
That very day when I fell to the floor in misery
You pulled me back up to my feet and tell me how much I was worth?

On that day when you first called me
did you remember what you first said?
That very day when we talked for hours
When I was in need of you, when I was afraid?

On that day when we became one
did you remember how strong we were together?
That very day when you stretched out your hand
Then called me your friend?
Did you ever?

Remember ..
When we first held our hands
In agreement to be friends?

Remember ..
When we hugged, with this
A seal of our promise as friends forever?

Remember ..
When you were there for me when I failed
We then made a promise to be there for each other?

Remember ..
and always do,
that when you're failing,
I'm always a call away,
I'll be here, waiting

For you, my friend
who first lent me a helping hand
It is, now my turn,
as I stretch out my hand
for you.

reach for it.

CHECKMATE! Yumeitto .

I would.. But should I?

I would pick a hat from a nearby store
Then put it on and say that it's nice
But what if one day it tore,
Should I buy it? Think twice.

I would pick a cat from the street
Feed it, take care of it, shower it with love
But what if it leaves and the next day, again I find it dead on the street?
Should I pick it up or just walk off?

I would not do my homework
Just probably because I'm too busy
But what if I get scolded the next day
Should I do it or let it be?

I would make a decision of my own
when I say that I'm ready
But what if some day my cover gets blown
With no shield left, should I have the right say I'm truly ready?

I would say I'm really happy
Jumping around, hyped up everyday
But what if one day you see me crying in the midday?
Should I even pretend I'm fine, I'm okay?

I would say I can do this on my own
Seeing me managing these things really well
But what if one day you realised, my pride, away, I've thrown
Should I just keep quiet & say nothing about it? Even I wouldn't be able to tell.

I would say this is the real me
You hear the tone in my voice
Can you really tell just by looking at me
Wouldn't you consider that I don't have a choice?

I would say live is full of choices
Even this option has two or a few openings
But what if I tell you I have to do it for someone
Should I presume your answer would remain the same?

Life is unpredictable
yet it is, sometimes
It's a never ending battle
Against this persistent devil.

CHECKMATE! Yumeitto .
