The sky is pink and sweet
Is it all made up for us?
Lightless dark street
As we two walk with Happiness
Beauty ain't make up
Don't wake up from dreams
Love is not made up
Let it go like stream
So does it change?
The way we made up it all
Why are you like a stranger
When I was high? not about the fall
The sky is pink and sweet
Is it all made up for us?
Lightless dark street
As we two walk with Happiness
Does makeup matter come what may?
Hiding the face of love
It's the blocks blocking the way
You are beautiful though
Made up are days and night
Being the self I am obsessed
To change them is your right
Making me up blessed

For the Love of Samosas
Prologue Today's post is short fiction in honor of all the hassled parents trying to keep their angsty teens in line. "Bye mum! I'm not coming home for lunch today. I'll be going to Mac's with Kelvin and his buddies before we head to his house to study for a test." With that, Adam Lim careened like the Flash out of his humble HDB abode.
