Imagine, The Unknown

To imagine is to picture; to have vision; to form an image in your mind about some thing; about anything without the limitations of what we know and understand. I wrote this thinking if I did not think and imagine my words instead, maybe this is what it will look like.

I imagine with my eyes open,
So that I can actually see
The thoughts that are yet to be formed
The ideas that pierce through my cornea
into the air that recycles through my lungs
The layers of unrefined gems
still covered in dust and ash
on the shelves of my mind
Waiting to be picked up and
given a chance to shine.

The windows of my soul are
the dreams
that invade the dark and stormy nights
When my eyes are closed shut
Tight from the shy moonlight
that peaks through the window pane.

No cotton candy clouds
or
sparkling glitter seas
or
unicorns that prance with multi-colour manes
that is now a trending flavour
of sweet things and desserts.

Stories that burn pages and lines
into my subconscious runs in a loop
The same basement
where I run with no escape
The same pavement
covered with grime,
unsure of its source
The same faceless people smothering me
With mumbling
and ramblings
and stumbling.

A never ending circle of cycles
that rotate over and over
Till it has lost its centre.

Losing tangent and spinning out of proportion
The X and Y's have turn to Z's
Blacked out by what was parallel
Turns that defied the laws set before it
and headed on a collision course
to crash at an intersection
Maybe that is where I will find my point;
Instead of trial and error till
I find a solution to the reality
that my fantasies are just my imagination.

2020

I  wrote this on the flight travelling back to Malaysia in 2020, leaving Australia after what would have been the last time I see the person that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. I was observing the people around me, it was an 8 hour flight with a lot of turbulence, who would have know that 2020 would be that kind of year as well. It is funny how things tell you of what will come in its own little ways. Looking around absorbing the sensations to accommodate my body to my surroundings, Infusing my skin with lavender and chamomile to soothe the tension in my muscular fibres.   On my left, a rubik cube frantically trying to solve itself It is but a process of working out possible solutions and running through know standard operational patterns Constant rotations occur and in mere minutes the puzzle is solved.   On my right, two European centurians ecstatic to journey to a new land Partners in life and adventurers ready for new horizons just above the equator They see spirits an

Swinging From Memory To Memory

Of recent adventures and endeavours I realised how much I liked to swing . This is how I wing it at swing. Hope this is as much fun reading as it was writing. When I was young, as memory recalls, My mum would take us out to play, We sometimes 'hang gai-gai' at nearby malls, Or go to McDonald's to eat during the day. On the weekdays when we would get the chance, To get some fresh air at the playground, Every kid would have one thing in their glance, We would race for the swings or run around. As I grew older I had a few favourite animations, One was from Jane Goodall's favourite book that became many adaptations, Tarzan swinging from vine to vine was all it took, For us nature lovers to love apes and get hooked. And then came along the 'All American Rejects' Swing, swing, swing from the tangles of my heart, Listening to that song had relieving effects, Cause any rejected crush made me fall apart. I remember there were days that w

This Is Malaysia

Recently Swit Marie has gotten more active on the HitRECord platform and started working on new material and collaborations. This was definitely the highlight of 2020 for her years of writing in the past few years. Reaching an international audience and being part of a community of creatives through this project involving over 180 contributors. The piece that was submitted for the This Is Malaysia video by HitRECord was derived from Dragon Tail . This Is Malaysia  final script remixed by Matt Conley from 8 contributors. This I s Malaysia video. The morning sun greets the mist of the hills, Joy seeps into my lungs as the morning dew kisses my cheeks, Peppercorn scents sing melodies of what the day could be. Waking up to the clouds embracing the mountain ranges This is where my heart belongs My fingertips touch the sparkle in the air made by the sun rays that love the mist My shoulders rise with the lightness of the sunrise. A symphony of swallows sifting through the clouds, Murmuratio
