CONVERSATIONS WITH THE TOWERS OF MALAYSIA
Poem inspired gazing at the Petronas Twin Towers and The Single Tower from my 22nd floor hotel room in Kuala Lumpur
.
Heavenly bodies dominate the sky
I am in awe for such a sight
Bright little stars light up my eyes
Cosmic creatures ,loving you, I can't deny.
Alone I am ,I dreamed to reach you
To silence my thoughts and carry me through
My mind full of banter that never stopped
And tortures me until I drop.
Fascination absorbs me
With your twinkling light that makes me free
You light up my room and I gaze at you lovingly
Only you know what's inside of me.
Your silence bonds us
Who else but you , my soul can trust.
I am haunted by your silence
Your presence I long in your absence
Deprive me not with your kindness
Abound me with your light, let me rest.
Take me away ,my cosmic star
Let me ride with you to near and far
Far unknown worlds,we will conquer and explore
Until the universe to me is no longer a folklore.
Tomorrow ,I leave you sadly
Return to my world hesitantly
The memory of your soft lights will linger in me
I will return to you if you are still free.
