"Tok Siti"
(Opinions)
1-09-2005
by Azira Binti Aziz
My Nokia 3200 hand phone rang, and I read 'Mummy' on the LCD screen. With a feeling of dread that I rarely felt, I answered the phone.
"Hello?"
"Ira, Tok Siti..." my Mother sobbed. Two and two clicked together, the long expected but not...
A Writer's View
(Short Story)
22-03-2007
by Azira Binti Aziz
I am a writer of uncertainties.
What are stories but for characters dictated by fate in its courses of both joy and sorrow? Of events unfolding from a seemingly ordinary situation in response to dire situations that arise, for such are the...
Defy
(Poetry)
5-02-2008
by Azira Binti Aziz
A firm hand
ever hovering
a blatant threat
ringing in my ears
the stinging slap
when I defied you
the bubbled breath
of self-realization
for this was not
what I voted
for
for you, my leaders
we followed-silent
for you, my leaders...
Don't
(Poetry)
26-11-2003
by Azira Binti Aziz
Don’t tell me that I’m in love
Don’t tell me I’m trapped in a cove
Don’t tell me to dare to hope
Don’t tell me to bear and cope
I refuse to acknowledge it
Don’t tell me that I’m hopeless
Don’t tell me I’m easily burst
Don’t tell me I’ve...
Emotions In Life
(Poetry)
30-08-2005
by Azira Binti Aziz
In anger, flowed wrath
and in its temperature
burns all within its path
a touch there is no cure
only another, flow of time
In love, flowed contentment
of many bitter hearts envied
though crossroads breed resentment
there is no such a...
Grandmother
(Poetry)
30-08-2007
by Azira Binti Aziz
My grandmother, she knits
endlessly
flowers blossomed
and leaves unfurled
nature thrived
in her embroidery
depicted on sheets
pillow-cases, tabletops
and on the wall
she wore trinkets
a golden snake, ruby-eyed
over her arm
jewellery...
Life
(Poetry)
20-07-2006
by Azira Binti Aziz
Sweet as a bird
flying in the sky
singing her song
to everybody near
Firm as the earth
which never imposes
and bore its burdens
without much complaint
Joyful as laughter
shared between friends
the kind that you cherish
for the rest of...
Longing
(Poetry)
15-12-2005
by Azira Binti Aziz
I long for the sun to shine
and to take me away
from all the deceptions
and sweet things said
to lighten my heart
in all its falsehoodness
I long for friends I knew
now blank faces with names
that I could not match to
laughter shared,...
Million Dollar Baby
(Poetry)
16-06-2005
by Azira Binti Aziz
I was once like you
I couldn’t face the world
It was so dark and I was alone
nobody could help me
they couldn\'t understand
all they did was to leave me alone
all alone
leaving wounds to fester
untreated as they scar
and remain
then I...
Sacrifice
(Short Story)
16-06-2005
by Azira Binti Aziz
It was night.
The satiny smooth feel of his hands, the strong, firm chest of which where her head rested, cradled in his embrace. Chery knew of no other, none before, and none, she believed then, after. His warm breath, every soft inhale of the...
The little ant
(Poetry)
5-02-2008
by Azira Binti Aziz
The little ant works and toils
To get his company
By his little hands and little feet
Endlessly he finds food
The Queen and company
He asks no questions of
And bothered not his why's
For it is to Queen and company
Does his life owe of...
The One
(Poetry)
30-08-2007
by Azira Binti Aziz
an ache in my heart
when I see your face
flawless, perfection
and I feel awkward
you're the one
the one I never had
the one I always wished
I wished that I had
laughter, teasing
almost forever
I would close my eyes
and dream of your...
Think.
(Poetry)

Who are we to say
what God wills us to do
what God supposedly
in his silence told us to
why are we to be
lesser than when we were born
who were innocent and free
now driven to lust and scorn
who are we to believe we are right?
who are we...
Unrequited Love
(Poetry)
27-03-2006
by Azira Binti Aziz
Unnamed feeling
beyond expectations
years too long
for hoping more
than your friendship
I am a fool
when I see you
around campus
your heart, your smile
wasn't for me
it is for her
I am lost
she was my friend
I trusted her
she...
Witless Fool
(Short Story)
10-04-2006
by Azira Binti Aziz
She watched him with empty eyes, as in her heart lay a longing she knew could never be fulfilled. With a friendly smile that felt almost natural, she asked his welfare, and asked of his classes. She took in the sight of him, in her mind scolding...
