Poem Title:
Poem
2025.4.20 I was so excited. I was going on a trip, All the way to New South Wales, Sydney. Where I last visited in 2006. This time, I wanted to climb, On the Australia icon "Sydney Harbour bridge", Stamped my feet around the Rocks square, Then on the Sydney Opera House's steps. I had a choice either up north To Newcastle and Lake Macquarie, Or down south to Jervis Bay. I really longed for a holiday, A relaxing and appointment free day. Away from home Victoria, Melbourne, Away from certain people and sad memories. I just wanted to be free, even just a few day. I was so happy with the news. I danced around and fell down. I woke up from my dream. What even worse was there were realality promises, To travel with me to Sydney by somebody, Whom I thought I could trust, After stood meup in the past. The promises were, the Sydney's trip, If it could not be during Easter Holidays, Then it would be sometime in May. Promised promises were made Only for music to my ears. They were never made to be fulfilled. I could really see the true color of your face. What amazed me was, It did not take long at all, Everything had come out in the wash. It came out much early than I thought. There was another saying in my language, Paper can't cover fire. You may pull the wools over my eyes, But my brain still be able to decide. What sort of person you were really like. You did not stand the test of time. I had wasted some much energy, Dreaming of being with you as a travel companion. No. You lied all these time, Made me believe I could build my dream. Sweet dream but not in reality.
