“Bye Felicia No Goodbyes”

Sometimes, it doesn’t matter what you are. You must know

yourself, but not being yourself. Change do not yourself because there
are someone to help you, your family and your friends. They are the
people, who will motivate and help you to uplift your morale when you
worried with your dutch courage. They are people who will guide and
assist you to your expected future. Your family will give you a flowery
advice that helps you to improve your confidence They are people who
will pull you down, that is the people didn’t see your sugar and spice
and what they always see is your failures in life. When you feel your life
is chaotic because of the failure you did, just trust yourself and you will
pass your trials in life. Use those flowery advices as a shield for the
people who didn’t believe in your strengths. I will rode across the
ocean just to reach my expected future. Let your frenemy stan you. This
might sound like a vague one; never change yourself for your family.
Your mental attitude in life, your morals, and your values will be
representing for who you are. Do not let anyone turned you to someone
you’re not because you are a unique person. Change do not still be
yourself not being yourself and remember those people who help you to
success in life and give them a coin. Be a goat.

“LOCKDOWN”

I don’t know how I start this poem Our lives have been affected

I don’t know how I start Some lives are being destroyed

I don’t know how I start my new life in this Families have been scattered
new normal
How we going to stop this pandemic?
I don’t know how

I miss to see the happy flowers in the

Who? morning

Who’s the culprit? I miss hearing the sound of water in the river
and seas
Is it you?
I miss my friends and my classmates too
Or is it me?
I think not only me but all of us

This enemy is hard to kill

It’s like I carry the whole world
This enemy is invisible
Because of the problem that I encountered
This enemy is a silent killer
Life is real! Life is earnest!
This enemy is different
This is just a challenge given by the
Almighty God
Hello darkness,my old friend

I want to talk with you again

Because the vision of this pandemic

I can’t see the peaceful world

What if peace spread like a plague? We now amidst of lockdown

Where everyone was under control People changed each behavior

They will say it was courageous to love all We united as one

the time
And we will heal as one
But now, what happened?

Now that we are in this situation

The concerned to each other are already
gone We need to be matured enough

In the way of asking for the financial Think for the common good
problem Not just for yourself
And even emotionally

No one tried to listen As we all hope for the cure

The cure for this pandemic, covid-19

The gossip of the people who surrounds you Let us, then, be up and doing
It really hurts into my heart And the enemy will be slayed
All of this has been change

Because of this pandemic; Covid-19

Humans now are changing

In terms of sharing

Some are helping

But most are being independent
