The Scars Of The Sky
The Scars of the sky
Are traced on the heaven's skin
Yet nothing is seen
On her face or eye
We're often told that
The sky is the barrier
Between the heaven and the earth
But whenever I look at her
I see the beauty
That never seemed to exist
Her face is so pretty
Her eyes roundly glitter
Her nose is as cute as cat's
Her lips often bring curls of drops of rain
Her voice is tender and soft
There are many scars like stars
On her body
These scars are still painful till today
They raped and tortured her
For her resistance
She endured all the pains she felt
They thought they destroyed her tenderness
But the good thing is
Those scars turned to stars
That one is able to see them
There so high
Lighting from the sky
From scars to stars
She became prettier than before
No matter what you go through
You gotta also endure all pain
For no pain, no gain
Be patient
Open your eyes and look above the sky
Where the Ether is neither scarless
Nor starless
And see how beautiful the sky and stars are
Smile and smell the incense
From lovely flowers
And you'll be full of cherish and towers
_Of strength
The scars of the sky

Poem: Achieve your dream
Poet: Charles JML
Life is dark
So you cannot see through its back
Unless you're the moonlight
Look your dream is on your sight
Hold it tight
Never let it go
For once it disappears,
You'll never get it flow
Get up and begin your safari
Remember the part of journey is end
Don't use your time stupidity
But use it wisely
Don't despair for the calamities, challenges and disasters
That you're going through
You may fail
For if you don't fail,
You're not even trying
You fall down
You may lose everything
But never lose hope
For it'll help you to cope

Poem : Life is what you choose to be
Poet : Charles JLM
Sometimes you fail to define life
Because of what you're passing through
I know you've been trying hard and hard
But you never see any changes
But lemme tell you something
Life's a choice
A choice that you got
The choice that stands straight
On your hands
As eggs being held not too tight or too slack
For them not to fall or be crushed
That's what's said to be life
Life's not easy as you think it is
You'll find some people struggling
To achieve their dreams and goals
Yet others are standing as unmovable as the American Statue of Liberty
These people are the shadows of others
For once somebody moves
They also move
They're the blowing winds
Without direction
Look as the sun rises,
The shadows grows
And as it sets,
It shrinks
There's no sweet without sweat
There's no peace without insecurity
And there's no independence without struggling
