On Friendship
Friendship is a roller coaster of highs and lows
Some friends can't stay apart nor wish to be torn.
Some struggle to rescue their drowned liaisons
And some cheer on their comrades from afar:
They come in gangs of geeks and clique of jocks
They are partners in crime and peas of a pod
They stand firm and brave against the harsh wind
Trusting and leaning on each other to hold tight
They think they're invincible against all charges
Yet, they wobble and sway against the test of time.
Opportunities knock at their doors and hearts change
Priorities re-arrange and promises long forgotten
Friendships are crazy pacts and silly ties
So easily tossed away in the hurdles of life
Yet some few and true friendships never fade
Still standing side by side against the harsh winds

Unmasked
Always wandering around in the dark,
I've practiced to put on a deceiving mask.
Maybe it is too late to reach for the light
And yet, till the end all I'm doing is fight.
Every effort I put in seems to be less
And every cry of help I scream, useless.
Yet I stand up again and brace my soul
For the voice in my head is too loud to ignore.
