GOODBYE 2014

How can I forget the mountains you were made of?
I have climbed their heights and suffered their shame.
How can I forget the singularity of your days?
They were a mixture of sun and rain.

2014, you numbered seven - 
Bringing me to the achievement
Of dreams long held
In you I have known success
And have tasted the sweetness
Of love both phileo and agapao

In you I have turned 20
Only to realise that 2+0 equals
2, indeed
How much I still have to  learn!
You've made me see,
I am still but a child.

I don't know what adjective suits you best
whether amazing or tyrannical -
But I can feel your strong grips
Holding me up on my feet
Whenever cowardice was taking over

Year of Light, of a beautiful April
Year of unforgettable experience
To me you've brought a Divine friend, a friend 
And friends that I am forever grateful for.
With tears I let go of you,
Year of sorrows and of smiles
Everlasting souvenirs dear to my heart,
You're leaving footprints, 2014!

What Should I do?

Every time it happens
I am scared. The lightening
Really scares me. I try
to pull a cover over me, But
it turns out it is only
A shadow ---

I can't go to daddy, he
already warned me not
to play outside alone and
because it was raining, I
went out anyway -

There's only J but he really
scares me even more than daddy.
If he leaves me, I have no one
to play with - forever.
If I tell him that I got
burnt by the lightening,
He will be so mad at me
and forget that he first
needs to treat my wounds

The wounds are aching
so badly - I need J to help me
But how do I tell him;
where did I get them from?
Oh, he'll be upset at the sight
of my stubbornness,
and leave me without a brother

I didn't want to go out
But daddy left me all alone
Inside the big house and went away
When thunders began to roll over the roof
I was afraid to stay inside
I thought maybe if I go out
I will find a passer-by to help

Now I am burnt, it hurts
I've heard daddy will never come back
What should I do?
J will never want to play
with me again, if I tell him
What should I do?
