Beneath the starry sky.
I will be walking all alone, by mine.
And I don’t need no one.
Because I am enough, am I.
I’ll walking till I’ll meet your eyes.
Beneath the starry nights.

Fear

you made words and phrases
arrange themselves fluently into
a constellation of words

but it scares me, really
it scares me because
that means
you also have the energy
to describe myself
with
my
own
poems

Grow Up

Get a job,
a husband or wife.
Make yourself comfortable
in your own life.
So they tell me
or would have told me
if they were still alive.
But they are dying slowly
by the magic pills.
They are no longer there
to protect and care.
I no longer have devils
that whisper and scream.
They can do both
but now they are doing non.
And I can see myself having fun,
not caring or staring
into nothingness.
Yet it leaves me in mourning
to know they are about to die.
Maybe if I hold on a little longer
I won't be lonely and then find myself
a job, husband or wife.

Reasons to stay

Some coded emotion of a kind
not seasoned enough to express
if you mean to say no, just say no
just...
Some mid-morning of a kind
not timeless enough to enter
if you want to go, just go
just...
not going anywhere
not writing anything
not worth any lot
Some onlooker of life
just...

depression (?)

i just wanna be "officially" sad
to not have to be "happy" anymore
because this fakeness is making me mad
i wanna be dead even more than before.

3 Inches Deep, The Knife In My Gut.

Cheating on you-
With myself.
Nothing to do.
Not with you.

Hey look! They're having a divorce!

anxiety

because if the bullets
are made of fear,
and the walls are made of rubber,
and your mind doesn’t seem quite capable
of willing your feet to move,

eventually you end up
getting pierced

moonlight

tears glisten in the moonlight,
but it shines too bright.
blocking out reality,
and the sad fatality.
of my heart,
and it's broken parts.

Together

Let’s get high together.
Spend the rest of our lives together.
Just for one night
Be my now or never.
Life’s too short to be alone forever.
These drugs are too strong to live whenever.
Let’s overdose and take tonight together.

alone.

feeling left out doesn't push me to get to know more people
it makes me push out the people I know and burn the bridges

pretty bad coping mechanism

seasons

i met you
as the leaves fell
and the sky turned grey

the world grew cold
as my heart turned warm

i missed you
as the leaves grew back
and the sky turned blue

the world grew warm
as my heart turned cold

I was asleep and saw movement

R STEP out step out step (flex ) in.
r hand drops to (behind you) diagonal right.
Grab something and come back to neutral

drunk on you

your name is
forbidden in
my mouth
or in my heart
because when
i think about
you;

i'll cry a little more,
hurt a little stronger
love a little softer
because you no longer
make me feel sober

i'm drunk on the
memory of you

if only i could chase you with pizza but shots don't work like that

I LIKE TO SAY YOUR NAME

I LIKE TO SAY YOUR NAME

I like to say
your name

when you're
not here

turn you
into sound

conjure you out of
thin air

so that you appear
before me

dressed in sound
only

memory sketching in
the rest of you

as if sound
was just an outline

and love
colours you in

adding the voice last
so I can hear you say.

"Hello you..!"
and there you are

as present
as present

can be.

I like to say
your name

when you're
not there.

Vorticity

Soft lips
Speak truths so small
In the moment I slip
You drift away
Away from it all

The places I think to create

your palms

my life line moves across
your chest
your love line inches towards
my lower back
reading your palms
under the thin covers
summer air blows into our hair
permeating the smell
of grass and warm flowers

we embrace
the unknowable future crushed
between our palms.

reminds me of romeo and juliet when they first met, they fell in love through touching their hands.

We are what we eat

We are what we eat
Can I eat someone disciplined
And abandon myself
To shed my self hatred
And become someone new

Love's only weakness
Is also its greatest strength:
It defies reason

Eternity

What is it ?

is it a dream
or a nightmare...

seeing your face
in my reverie...

Honestly, what is it to be having it... suddenly ?

Keep writing

They will tell you
All poetry has been written
There is nothing new
Under the moon
But let me tell you
They don’t know you
You are as unique
As the DNA that exists
Within your frame
The ripples on your thumbprint
No one ever had the same.

Listen...

You have something to say
Say it proudly
Say it boldly
Never let them scold you.

Never let them make you go away.

I love it when someone tells me to keep writing. You should keep writing too!

Stupid boy

I thought you would be the one to save my soul
This game has gotten old
You can’t keep on playing with me
I’ve always been history
You broke all we built more like what I built
You already make me deal with all the guilt
I’ll never move on from your poisonous love
I wanna hurt you with a boxing glove
It’s 6 am I’m in my bed and awake
I’m just another thing you wanted to break
This is all because of cupid
I’m so stupid
I wanna be alone
And stop falling for stupid boys

Control

I
hate
everything you are

but you are still

Maybe one day I’ll write a book about all who have wronged me.

Incomplete

Baffled

I want to grow out of words but I haven't tried all of them on yet.
Could color and shape explain the illusion with more clarity?
Even when I'm comfortable, I'm depressed.
I can't see life for what it is
just like how I can't see the earthrise and the sunset simultaneously.
I have to numb myself from my self.
It's the only way to make sense of the toxic rainbows.

When I Wake

When I wake
Please give me a kiss
On my forehead

When I wake
Let’s make coffee together
And dance around in our underwear

When I wake
Can we make
Blueberry muffins?

When I wake
Can you still
Be here?

OCD

This disease struck me
Like a brick on pavement
Hard

Everything was
Perfect
Then that brick came along
And with the slightest movement
Destroyed everything

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
The voices say

Why can’t I let them go?
They keep repeating:

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
Why won’t they stop

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
I don’t understand

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
Someone just HELP me understand

This disease is about
Perfection
But it's the biggest
Imperfection about me
