'Floyd Would Take A Journey Unsure' Poem by Chester Floyd Minami

'Floyd Would Take A Journey Unsure'

Rating: 4.8


Shall I follow the star?
Or cross the sea and jump
Over the islands of Mindanao to Luzon.
So I can get myself closer to you
Or strive for a dream and start,
Dreaming about you…?

And what shall I do if the roads,
That I come across are rough and the wheel gets burst
Shall I stop and back to start..?
Or shall I go through with bare-footed..?
As the prophecy had written
On a long winding road.

Shall it be the neon lights
That spell success,
Or flickering star lights for happiness
Why is it not easy and why is it hard to take a journey.
Why do I have to venture and to risk my life for unsure..?

If my life is a journey
I wish you pray me safely,
That I will walk on roses
And pick some delightful roses,
To bring it for… when I’ll be with ….
Then I will announce “My journey is over “


If my life is a chess game
I wish you pray me,
That I will win,
And there will be no more bad moves at all,
As a chess master play,
Then we will celebrate “The victory “

Endure the thunder that shocked to death
Endure the storm that destroy once dreams
Follow the lights where I can see hope
Follow the three-one-four-three stars
That leads me straight to your heart

Follow my heart?
Follow my head?
What shall each bring me?
Where shall each lead?
Whatever will be the outcome of this journey?
Whatever will be the pain of this journey?

I’m so proud to say “KAYA KO ITO”

I shall go through!
I shall bring the prophecy!
I don’t care what they say!
I don’t care how weariness it is!
For I uphold the promised!
For it is the promised,
That rules over my mind, body and soul!

I gave you a nine because you covered a lot of things here. I figure that others might have made several poems out of this writing. You put it together and tried several means of communication. The important thing, was you never let the reader get away from you. You kept the reader on the journey with you. It was a smart writing. Worthy of a 9. GW62

I'm from the US, of course. Honestly, your poetry doesn't need to improve. It's wonderful, really. Except, on some parts I had to read a second time to understand, but it could just be me. c: -olivia
