Chapter 20

This poem was written when I visited Brunei when I was 20. I had completely forgotten about this poem, but it still remains in my room. This poem brings back quite similar sentiments at Chapter 24, being once again back in my hometown.... It's funny how old poems never fail to re-inspire and help validate the person you always have been. Happy New Year, everyone!

CHAPTER 20
Each stage in life
has its commas,
question and exclamation marks!
Bend the pages
You can't go back but
You reminisce
Each chapter, each story,
smile and laughter
Hold your breath,
There are more chapters
Awaiting a happy ending ...
