endlessly lost
again, I’m at a loss
lost in the rain
lost in the chain of burnt cigarettes
lost in the lines of empty verses
lost in the torn pages of calendars
lost at the day’s end
only to remember — there’s still tomorrow
Rex Tan is a journalist by trade and a poet at heart. As a Malaysian, he is fluent in English, Mandarin, and Malay yet calls none his first language.
