Nostalgic Chaos;

A dichotomous dynamic that I know too well.

The air that cleanses, and the one that pollutes,

Both being the truth.

 

In a world where violence excels;

Fear, hatred, and all that’s unwell,

Is a world of beauty and love.

 

But within the beauty there is horror,

And within the love there is despair,

For one cannot bear each other, 

But both are a pair. 

 

Beneath the enamouring scent of pandan and kaya,

In a world of corruption and desire,

Lies a little boy with no fuel, but fire.

 

One that burns dull then brightly,

Oh how I wish I could go back,

God Almighty.
