To hell with this,
To hell with that,
To hell with everything evil and bad.
I’m here to stay,
I’m here to say,
I’m not giving up,
as long as the song doesn’t stop.

I’m sorry I lied,

Feeling as though I cheated,

myself;

Saying i’m contented,

When there’s a part of me,

missing.

A part not yet found,

A part sweet and sound,

To be my solid ground,

When there’s nothing else around.

We’re like the sun and moon,

you and I,

we shine in our own way,

but with equal importance all the same.

Your warmth descends,

as my coolness transcends.

But when you departed,

my world, obliterated.

-ahmad nazhan zulkarnain-

10 and proudest..

You are my inspiration,

my deepest desiration.

Who creates fireworks in me,

Who I dream of in my sleep,

Who I think about in glee,

Who I imagine in me.

You’re who keeps me going,

Who keeps me sighing,

asking,

will it ever be?

Or will it remain a fantasy.

We’ll just wait and see.

As the ebb and flow of seasons pass,

for destiny to take it’s place.

One day, when I’m finally free,

I’ll realise myself,

whether it was meant to be,

you and me..

Just another passenger in another man’s ship,
tagging along on his voyage,
not to help nor interfere..

Struggling to make my own decisions,
even the smallest,
could make the biggest
of impacts, so I’m scared,
and let others impact me instead.
Reactive, not active, I am.

Until I undergo mutatis mutandis,
I shall never captain my own ship,
destined to be condemned,
as the passenger in life,
MY own life.

You feel asphyxiated,

nauseated,

when you know he pretended,

to get what he wanted,

leaving you isolated,

when he just departed.

The blanket of white buries us deep,
Pitter-patter of tiny creatures are put to sleep;
The wonder of nature enters yet another phase,
One that leaves many amazed,
That makes many wanna leap.

Sitting by the window sill,
reminiscing on days linked to the past;
pondering on decisions I could’ve made,
without regretting the ones I did,
while watching the seasons pass.

What’s special about being number one, I haven’t a clue,
But whenever my name’s mentioned, everyone goes ‘who?’;
No matter what I think, what I say, what I do,
In the end, i’m still number two.


-ahmad nazhan zulkarnain-

I’m like any other being,
I’m no exempt;
Except for this one thing,
that can only be expressed through verse;
I realise, my mere existence is a futile attempt,
to make an impact on this universe.

The gloomy sorrows overwhelm us deeply,

as time goes on it never does halt;

These hallowed halls were never meant to be,

as time goes on my heart turns to basalt.

I wish I lived in a time when, 

the words face and book were separated,

and things weren't so complicated;

And means of communication,

with its translations.

could be expressed with sheer imagination.

Good riddance to the crow,

maybe I should've given him more;

For what he thought was H2O,

was H2SO4.
