'Precious'

Hey guys! So sorry for not updating my blog for ages.

Semester break just started and I guess it's high time for some fresh new stuff. Well not that I have a lot of update and I'm still stuck in M'sia, so I have pretty much nothing to say about my life. HAHA

But anyhow, I'd finally watched a movie called 'Precious' based on the novel 'Push' by Sapphire and this is a heartbreaking story but the warmth you get out of it is worth the watch. It's not like any typical Hollywood films or flicks. It is based on a real-life scenario where nothing is always beautiful and glamorous as it supposed to portray on TV. So, I would definitely recommend you guys to watch it. It's abt determination and strong will in overcoming life's worst situations, most of all, you gotta believe in yourself. A story about abuse, incest, emotional attachment and trust will surely capture the sensitive side if yours. The best part is, Mariah Carey's performance in it is exceptionally fantastic. =)

Here's a poem I wrote after watching the show. It's called Sapphire in the dark.

She has a heart.

A heart that tells a million raining stories.

One after another,

Drip, drip and drip.

Raining in the dark .

Where darkness is her light,

Like her heart, she pushes.

To the precious gem,

Sapphire gleams.

Based on the movie 'Precious', written based on the novel 'Push' by Sapphire.
