[poem]

I feel like writing a poem.

in English.

Don't laugh at my first attempt XD

Green-eyed monster 

by Don (inspired by Corrinne May)

Bitterness crawl into my mind

Reaches down

With its toxic tentacles

I'm strangled.

Unfair!

Unfair?

He has all that I long for

A rose longing for its neighbor's red

Care and love - his companions

Love and care - my desires?

He has got everything I wanted

Not even close - I am stuck

Stuck in jealousy

Bitterness

Purity contaminated

With the darkness in my mind

Am I happy? Glad?

To scrutinize his life?

What's the use of being haunted?

Why?

My dear friend,

Though we don't really know each other

I should be hoping for the best

For you,

For me,

For everyone

Green-eyed monster I have turned into,

Green-eyed monster I want to reject

I'm one of a kind

Closing my eyes

Listen

To who I'm meant to be

Stop feeding the monster I will

Wishing for you - I will

To you...

For all the thoughts against you

Dear friend, I'm sorry

The rose

Complimenting his neighbor's red,

Not trying to outshine

A beautiful garden!

A glorious life.

There goes my first poem.

Not really my first poem XD

When I first came to Singapore in 2004, I wrote a poem for my English Class.

About a cat XD

And I got the highest grade for the poem. Ha ha

The english bridging course was a good time for me.

This year, I've stopped listening to the radio, so I talk badly.

SO, I screwed up my OP presentation. My group mates did fantastic though =]

There was this girl who was sitting RIGHT in front of the examiner.

She kept making faces, as if my speech was SO bad she wanted to vomit.

And I was deeply affected by that, and I freaked out badly because of that.

Now about that girl.

Not just only me, she made small talks when others were presenting.

Commenting. Bitching.

Oh goodness, come on.

Doesn't my name tag with the big fat words "NGUYEN MAI QUI DON" tell her that I'm a foreigner? Couldn't she at least keep a straight face!

Like others did.

Gosh. why is there such a person in this world!!!!!!!

SC4 girls: nice

choir girls: nice

vietnamese friends: nice

all other girls i know: nice

except for that one.

------------

au revoir. I may not be around until 12/11.

See you all!

With love,

Don
