Untitled Mess

by Ramya Kumar & Vivian Lim

There is something that I must address:

I have used up all the threads to weave

and created this thing that we call “a mess”

 

as the world around me seems to compress

I cannot just sit at home and grieve

I must conquer this quest: my stress

 

though I can’t help but confess

that there is nothing that I can properly achieve

for I lack both the noblesse and finesse

 

helplessly attending all my duties to progress,

having so many problems under my sleeve

but I try to keep cool to impress

 

I must find the strength that we all possess

to overcome this pain and reprieve

I may win this battle… “haha success!”

 

despite everyone that is trying to suppress

me, I will still believe

that I can outguess this game of chess

against all odds nonetheless
