Old Photograph

Each moment in each event
There's always something to remember
Whether for good or bad
'tis bittersweet indeed

Something to smile about
Even after all these times
The joy from that distant past
Its echo still bring about a smile

Such are the good old times
Pleasant, warm memories that lingers
Just like an old photograph
That captures the sense of the moment

So then, let's make tomorrow better than today
So that in the times to come
We can remember our present days fondly
Just like we did with our past memories today

A stroke of breath

A moment of respite
A temporary sigh of relief
One precious little moment of rest

Before the struggle is rekindled
Before the battle would be won, or lost

Beyond shame, beyond loss
Honour matters not,
For it can be easily cast off
Like the sand that was swept by the ocean

With a resolute mind
And a heart as deep as ocean
One last thrust of life to the future
With no regret left behind

Live your life well!
For life is but a fleeting moment
The brightest light from a candle
In the last moment
