Open Eyes

It was during that moment that I realised

How much I adapted to the way you treated me

That I never experienced how to be treated like a lady 

But a stranger in the form of a post-millennial 

Who is supposed to be more clueless of the act of chivalry

Managed to make me feel like I were a princess 

When all you did was to make me feel otherwise

Was it due to pride that you have to hide?

Or in your eyes I am not good enough 

I guess it is both, am I right?

Cause in your eyes, I am not worthy enough 

One (Not Very) Fine Day

There will be one day,

when I will have all the qualities that you look for in a woman,

and you will see me in a new light. 

But when that day comes,

I will not see you the way I am seeing you right now.

Because it means, your feelings are conditional. 

My Exception

I know it's embarrassing cause...

Cause even in my 30s,

I still fell for sugarcoated smooth words from you.

Even when your subsequent actions don't live up to them.

You know what,

 Even... even if I were in my 40s, I would still fall for your words...

Not because I love to hear those flattering sugary words,

It's just because...

Those words are from you.

Life, Race & Competition

Life is not a race nor a competition,

Because we all have different starting lines. 

And also because we all have different hurdles during the journey. 

If you were to treat it as a competition, it will always be an unfair one. 

And you, you will always be unhappy because of that.
