Dr Peter Lim 2d

They wear a mask
because their own selves
they fail to trust

Dr Peter Lim 2d

Misled
by another?
No, more
by oneself

Dr Peter Lim 2d

The king, the prince
the billionaire, the aristocrat
like the pauper and the lowly
each will end in the grave

Dr Peter Lim 2d

The world
they discovered
but their true self
they forgot

Dr Peter Lim 2d

Fallen
bruised
hurting
but not broken

strength
recovered
unyielding
the odd, conquered

Dr Peter Lim 2d

Decorum

Never ask anyone
why the person is silent
it's over-stepping the line-
unwarranted and unpleasant

Dr Peter Lim 2d

Give me

Give me
a song
or a poem-
I'll not feel alone
