The Old World

Old World
By Brangien

Bring me somewhere… anywhere…
To a place without lines… and no points…
A geometrical illusion I never had known,
Maybe a place I thought I cannot draw.
Fly me freely… really…
Do me a favor… please let’s go…
In a point of nowhere… somewhere…
A place of no return… I don’t care…
Sing their Hymn… the old world’s song…
But do you know how… please don’t pretend…
And if you do… it do make us fools…
Let us start walking… to find that place…
No need to run… we we’ll surely get there anyways.
No need for worrying… I know we are ahead.
No need to panic… we are almost there.
One glance to the east…
And take another from the west…
Shook our heads to the south…
Don’t blink a sight from north…
Are you excited to see who’s waiting?
Don’t frown if the one’s isn’t there…
I’ll call everyone… but only those who cares…
One more minute to pass…
And every heartbeat you keep can go.
The story we set aside could flow.
No holding back… now let’s go…
We had arrive… to a place we wondered too long…
No need to be sad…
We are now at home…
To a place we know…
To the Old World we belong.

Wonderland

Wonderland

By Brangien

One night of fog and mystery,

A night of dreams and equities,

Someone called I stared out the sky,

And touched the mist on my mind.

I was hoping of escaping,

And planned not to comeback.

A world I lived from too much despair,

I wonder why it turned unfair.

Out of my sight I saw a place,

Somewhere that I don’t know,

A place that looks nice and safe,

Somewhere called “wonderland”.

Here I found a place,

Where a happiness has its own well,

A fountain of joy that showers over and over,

A marquee of friends that never disappears,

And stores where I can buy some love.

I kept on dreaming and hoping,

Until suddenly I got struck,

A stone from nowhere,

The stone of reality shot my head.

And tears came running down,

Disappointed and heart-broken,

I found myself slacking down the floor,

I found myself trapped from the truth.

Now I wonder,

When will wonderland call me again,

When will I be able to see such place,

And how to get passes for all my life?

It is plain and simple,

But it seems so hard for me.

I keep on dreaming and hoping,

I kept on fooling myself.

I just wanted to live a life,

A life with no regrets,

Life overjoyed,

Life endlessly.

In wonderland I felt,

The feeling of having everything,

Such acts that made me secured,

Somewhere I smiled freely.

In wonderland I found,

A place that cares for me,

No corners of sadness,

No spots for loneliness.

In wonderland I’ve gathered,

Friends who aren’t foes,

Foes who sided my name,

Group of people that never fades.

In wonderland I’ve learned,

Dreaming until the limit,

Wondering until I can,

Hoping until it last.

In wonderland, yes, in wonderland, I felt I am home,

In wonderland, no doubt, I felt I belong,

In wonderland, I know, a place that will never make me cry,

In wonderland, surely I feel, the place that I am looking for.
