    My Vomit

    How life writes its own story?
    My vomit –
    The ejected matter of my life,
    Is been taken by another man!

    Girl vomiting
    My Vomit

    How I wonder within me:
    Vomit a woman several times,
    There is always a man somewhere
    Ready to gulp her down his throat!

    True to the rumors,
    Life grows in her and baby is born.
    Yet, her mama died!
    Thank God for the baby,
    Her life would have been empty.

    Several times over,
    Have I try to purge her,
    But my weakness fails me.
    If life have not written its story,
    Who would have claimed the baby?

    Can the baby be truly mine?
    …the baby of my vomit,
    A baby after a story has ended.
    How I wish not that the time is true.
    Hopefully, though …

    Like a puff of smoke, like an ocean’s wave.
    I call upon your names, nobody to answer it.
    Life is but a moment, a blink then it is gone.

    I will tell you everything, of people that matters. People that care.
    I will whisper all to you.

    Your passage left a hollow place,
    It left a burden of blames.
    Your end speak volume of future.

    Your end speaks the heart of men,
    And a burden of blames on my shoulder.
    Your friends are angels till the end!

    Till we meet again,
    Till those grasses become green again,
    I will save all that matters!
