Emily M.Vo Poems

Take in the surroundings
Including the breathtaking sky
Look at all the findings
Given to you by life
...

All the time
You find yourself regretting what you say or do
After all, I guess that's how the human mind works
...

Lingering fadingly in the hazy atmoshpere,
Thick yet thin in its foggy presence;
What is that troubling, eerie being that gazes suspiciously?
...

Sink the expressionless, pearled petals of solitude
Into the abyss of the fresh, melodious prelude.

The jaded, frozen arias of the days that you've known
...

This world consists of many beautiful contents,
But there are also many deceptive and undesirable things inhabiting its pool.
Along with it are human beings that roam this world with such unpleasant intents.
Why must many individuals be so uncaring, so cruel?
...

Just a handful, contemptible people, you are.
Jeers of mockery; despicable remarks; weak, uncontrollable urges.
That is all there is to the beings that are of the majority;
I do not believe in complete, pure kindness nor angelic innocence.
...

It is simply beautiful, precious and is a rich, dark cerulean,
Painted intricately by the sky's deep, black abyss.
The pale effulgence illuminates its alchemistic oblivion,
In which beneath its surface lies many anomalies amiss.
...

How can you not hear acutely
When one has been extensively vociferating?
How can you not deeply perceive
The signal that has been desperately reverberating?
...

Why should I disintegrate the fragments of my fragile individuality
For the sake of others who gives no mind nor care to my well-being?
I have always foolishly expressed naive kindness in mindless vitality,
And receive mere ignorance in return for its apparent meaning.
...

The drops that are dismally lost,
And the drops that never change
Remains glittering in this endless abyss.
...
