Elemental Poem by Kestrel Quiambao

Am I too much hurt
Am I too much pain
Is this the naked reality
Is this the right track, operating in the right conscience

Break the spoils
Race of illusions
Too much loving
Too much hurting

Tears falling like the snow
Slowly damaging my inner ego
Did I lose
Will I win

Some day, fright night
Dark path, lonely white
Cars flying, trains playing around
Those are the machines playing in my mind

Revolution, evolution, realization
Baby, oh baby, these fears I'm swallowing
An elemental race
Causing my emotions to beg for a second chance

Fear corrupting a child in the playground
The devil is creaming inside thee
Treasure chest, completely found
A box with plagues within a killing spree

Cold rough, warm tough
This pain is elemental
This pain is paradoxical
Laugh to the senseless bluff

A beat buried in my mind
A scar painted in my timeless clock
How do I educate myself
From this patience of ignorance

Pale face within a warm embrace
Touch the heart, escape with the strife
Am empty brain left in vain
In the world, filled with shame

Oh baby please, guide my arrow
That pierces every heart with incomplete perfection
And hurts so bad you'll never cry
Until it is...
