Shines Like A Star ( For Joe and Jayne)

I see you bloom in your words,
telling your story and declaring to the whims of fate
that your soul will always be free as a bird
and the pain has not made your write degrade
but spins further in a new tapestry,
the unique fabric of feelings that defines who you are,
a powerful piece of beautiful memory,
the glory of the spirit that shines like a star.

I'm glad you liked it, bro.

I can't show you enough
how much I admire you.
Not even the darkest night
could deny the light from you.

Envied by the sun,
more vibrant than the rainbows.
you make me smile
under the moonlight glow.

So thank you very much
for all you have shared,
the story you have told,
the heart you have bared.

if you noticed, I borrow from you abit "moonlit glow". Well they make me realize that I shouldn't give up on my dream and because of that, I became one of the representatives from my country in the compilation of malay poems from 4 countries. It really feels good, raj. I'm writing malay poems in the facebook malay poem's site every night and preparing for more projects to come. It can be tiring but I'm just loving it all.
