My Name is Shadow

I have always thought that the world is nothing but black

I keep on seeing myself trapped in darkness

And I can’t seem to see a ray of light

All I can do is hope and pray for a world so bright.

I kept on walking in nothingness

Hoping to find the end of my emptiness

All I have is this faith I hold

To find the path leading to the door of happiness.

Along my journey I stumbled and fall;

I gathered my feet in a courageous manner

To grab my second chance to grow and be better

To meet other people who cares and to care.

However, in this darkness I could see nothing,

I could only hear faint voices from afar

I started walking towards their direction

Slowly, the chattering and laughter becomes clearer.

Their voices was like a sweet melody

It was pleasing to the ear

It was my first time to hear such music

That got me anxious and excited.

As I got closer to the crowd, faint light I see

I’m happy for at last I saw light

My eyes glittered with tears of joy

When everyone gathered around and welcomed me.

Ah, what a wonderful feeling

To now and feel that you belong

I could only wish for this moment would never end

But, unknowingly, the light slowly faded to darkness.

Once again, my whole world was embraced by darkness

Stricken by fear, I run aimlessly in search for everyone

Tears started to fall because of fear and seclusion

I’m all alone now in the midst of oblivion.

I shouted for help but no one seems to hear

From a distance I saw a light and tried to walk towards it

However my feet got stuck and I can’t take a step

Something is keeping me from moving forward, I wonder what it is.

SENDONG

The sun was smiling brightly at you.

Your sky was painted in blue.

Everything was fine; nothing seems to go wrong.

Your world was in perfect harmony.

Chaos was far, only peace lingers as you sleep

But no one told you that nightmare would visit you

And angel of death would paint your blue sky with black

Blink of an eye, your perfect world was washed away by flooded tears

Right in your eyes, the life of your love slowly drifted away

All that’s left were relics of hurricane heart

Filled with remnants of pains and debris of memories

From afar I could hear your sobs of pain

Your cries is echoing from the depth of my soul

I want to spread my wings to comfort you,

To embrace and give you warmth and sing a lullaby to ease your pain

But my words aren’t enough to heal your wounds

My songs couldn’t erase the scars from your pain

For it will remain forever.
