Life is a fragile piece of glass

The news.
Messenger of the damned.
An airplane crash.
Only a 10 year old boy survived.

Dear Lord, why?

My heart instantly shattered when I heard and read about this. Like I said before, I'd trade my whole life for an eternity of bliss for the universe. I am not afraid of death because I will soon embark a journey He has planned for me.

But, my prayers turned to vain at times.

I've posted this poem way back then, and dedicated to a person who has lost his loved ones, and today, I could not believe I have to bring this sad piece out again. Every time when I read this piece of poem, my heart shattered yet again for the friend of mine whom we cared and loved so much. Now, I will think of the boy who will be an orphan until the day of his last breath. Kid, stay strong and my prayers are with you. Though you and I might not have any connection, but I have to say, you are one big miracle.

I have seen an extraordinary rainbow the other day and was sensing some kind of miracle is about to happened. This, might be one of them. Even if this miracle appeared from a fatal tragedy, you are to live on, to remind all of us of how lucky we are, and you, young man, will soon be someone the world will look up upon.

What is life and what is death?
Only HE knows the meaning best.


(A glass so fragile)

A fancy glass
With vibrant colours
And amazing zest of attraction

With a twist of fortune

It shattered!
Just once
It shattered…
To the floor beneath
Full of dusty dust

Can never be stitched
Can never be brought back to a piece…

How fragile..

God has great plans for the little boy. I've always believe He is fair.

I think eternity of bliss will be unreachable for as long as we r human. Where there is white, there's always black. It's the balance of the universe.

I wish the boy well. =)
