this is probably the longest poem i have written
maybe because i haven't written for so long
then i have so many inspirations
i think this is a pretty good storyline
only if you could understand the way i understood it
haha =D







********************************************************

"Ladies and Gentlemen, we are presenting..."

the narrator's voice blasted to where i was sitting

in a black dress, i was almost late

but the theatre has one missing ticket



the curtain draws and there was the first scene

there were 2 people in the coffee house chatting

there's something about the street outside

it's probably due to the shining bright light



the old friends decided to go shopping together to catch up on old times

they passed by a shop when a clock chimed

the decoration was pretty at the gift store

but i swear i have been there before



one of them invited the other over on a job at the home

to take care of the folks who were left alone

an old man spoke of the days of the army boys

at that moment, i thought i heard a familiar voice



the magic show is where the story starts

something's gonna happen but i won't know much

they have something more in common, the story will reveal

something deeper, darker, and sealed with a deal



i'd have to agree that it can be entertaining

amusing you with something you have never seen

but for all what magic show's turn out to be

is nothing more than visual trickery



i was lost for a moment there

as memory pulls me back to a certain somewhere

i can hear the waves crashing against the wall

and this was the place where i took my fall



it was a bright sunny day

a perfect day for swimming but there he lay

with shades and ear muffs on

can things be any more wrong?



staring at the sun at noon time

was he out of his mind?

may be, maybe it's for show

but you're asking me about somebody i don't know



of course he wouldn't remember a single thing

after all, he's the one who gave me all the water i can drink

as i struggled and screamed for help

pleasure from the sun-tanning was all he felt



i wondered how many slaps i'd have to take

even to the point when my face turns red

to wake up and realise this was a mistake

and i shouldn't have sat there like a fool to wait



this is no different from being in a prison

in this four by four, i'm the only person

day after day, it's nothing but torture

i thought i wouldn't make it out for sure



it's too unbelievable for it not to be a dream

in a world where you forever sink

and when you look up everyday, it's rain

until i pinched myself and felt the pain



once again i'm staring at the stage

everything came to me and formed an image

these people were there all along

but they were just in the other part of the song



the other day along that street

remember how waiting for someone makes you tick

and when the person finally appeared, in fact

i waved, you waved, and the person behind waved back



i remembered i was dragged into the shop

you said come here and see what i've got

it was nice but who was it for

but i noticed i didn't like the pretty pink doll



each and every word you said

i was drowning in an imaginary lake

not that you had to explain or even prove

just that it was me who couldn't hear the truth



this could be simpler than i thought it would be

everything placed in front for me to see

sometimes there's something more than meets the eye

other times, it is just a downright lie



like a person who has woken up from a nightmare

you tell me who the hell wants to go back there?

unless the sleep fairy came to lend a hand

but somehow i can still feel your presence beside where you stand



frozen in a block of ice, i can't move

i didn't have a choice to choose

only when the grey clouds vanish and the sky becomes clear

would i step out of the house without that fear



after much turmoil and secrecy but finally

it's alm0st the end and they are happy

this is the kind of ending that is expected

but in reality how many of these have actually existed?



time is wasting but still i believe

you will give everything you've got to give

if this is what you want

then get up and start to run



before the curtains draw

before the end of it all

"come everybody, let's take a bow"

because...... we're over now

we™
