She wears this veil so well He won’t notice it’s there Like a second skin, it has become attached to her Hell, he hasn’t bothered peeling it off Not even the edges So, the flaws are still there, hiding under there And like the others, he won’t get to know her With a sigh of despair, she puts another layer Praying for the day that she’ll be unveiled

The vieil
It ain't that complicated, if only you would listen to her Take honesty mix it with compassion, add a spoonful of romanticism Let it cool for a few weeks Then add the crucial ingredient CONSISTENCY, pour it as much as you want it She's not asking for much, be true, don't have her waiting by the phone DON'T nourish fake promises If you desire to see her, tell her so If you're busy, if you're mind is elsewhere, TELL her But don't leave her with empty bribes

The way to a girl's heart
AND at this moment, that special person of yours, should look at you straight in the eye, and make you feel the intensity at the other end of that promise  “I love you”, meaning I promise to be genuine, I promise to try and ease the darkness around you, I promise to always try and never take you for granted, BECAUSE  Love shouldn’t be a habit but a gift,  and from that moment, you should feel like you’re seeing the world through a fresh pair of eyes, See, nowadays, “ I love you” can be heard around every corner, but very few people can keep that sacred promise; You shouldn’t have to force the words out of that person, because when you finally hear them, it won’t feel like the natural order, on the contrary, you’ll feel the void slowly taking hold of you, and you’ll wake up with question marks everyday. When a person tells you “ I love you” , it shouldn’t feel like a lie, it should feel as if you’re feeling  the warmth on your skin for the first time, as if you’re reading your favorite book for the first time… pure bliss And as time goes by, those  " I love you" will either be strenghten or will turn to  " I hate you " . There’s a thin layer between love and hate, now, it’s up to us to keep the balance on the right side YOU can play with words as long as you want, but make sure that you mean every single one of them, and most importantly, bring them back to life, stage them, the words are already out there, you just have to follow the script, right? « right »…

I love you ?

I have been looking for Love in dark places, filled with lies Yet, I keep repeating the same mistakes Will my stubborn broken heart ever learn from these failures? Another day, reviving our memories, or at least what you tried to sell to me and to the other broken hearted girls You left me there, breathless, at the top of the cliff trying to reach your heart, made it seem easy; but I just couldn’t see that it was merely a hologram, chasing the impossible, I opened some of my scars along the way Now I’m left, in front a giant question mark, wondering what went through your head You keep haunting me in my dreams, tell me, you selfish wizard, which spell shall I use to get you out of my system?

Question mark
I ripped every ounce of you out of my brain, but I still couldn’t feel lighter, I dried my tears with a paper glass, the ones that you shaped, see I thought loving you would have been a relief, but it only gave me grief, deep at night my cracked heart is still calling you, but yours, has been on voicemail for way too long

Missed calls
I have lost the notion of Home, the day that you came in Your vanity broke my shelter into pieces Tiptoeing in my own house, I felt like a stranger Years passed and the pressure was unbearable Your hate suffocated the whole house Leaving in order to heal,was the only medicine, Not once did I feel homesick, I was able to see life through a fresh pair of eyes Yet the minute I came back I started to see black Feeling homesick for the first time for a country that isn’t mine, Isn’t it ironic?

And at this precise moment, pain took over Love and anger took over pain, Will it be the end? Promises that were never fufilled, Like a catchy song, I can't get your words out of my head But the intent was the same, you sold something that wasn't real You met me in between And I hate you for making me fall in love with you that easily, For taking me for granted,for not being there at my worst For selling love to other birds, while I was holding on to any butterfly left in your stomach, But, most importantly, I hate YOU for giving up on us, WHILE I was building up our timeline... And at this moment, Patience took over anger, and wisdom took over patience I'm not out there fishing for answers anymore BECAUSE, I was the one holding them all along

Timeline
Truth does not come easy It has been disguised in so many shapes Yet I wasn't able to see it, even with the right glasses Time made me pint point the cracks in my soul Falling in love was supposed to be the cure of this bleakness Feelings kept me away from this pain, Or was it just another lie to keep you longer in my life? I'm no longer looking for your love, I'm no longer trying to see myself through your eyes, It's pitch black outside and my eyes are sore I mourned our love all night long.. Yes I'll always remember you, and yes you'll always be my weakness The pain is still there, but I have to move on, this time I have to see life through a colorful filter on my own Two days has passed and everything reminds me of you, but I can hear the birds singing and I can feel the heat on my skin, I can feel this invisible embrace which shows me the path, Taking a depth breath the unknown is waving at me

The price of truth
Blank eyes, Nothing but, regrets, The lady wanders through her loss, Living the same tedious routine, she is consumed by this cloud of gray smoke, She can't see that her old self is drowning in the lake of memories, Like another life, The ladies are not alike anymore, The mirror breaks, and she can't utter a single word LIFELESS, she is waiting for Love to come back.

A cloud of smoke
Falling in our arms was as easy as reading my favorite book; it was quick and soothing. You took me in a whole different universe Hours became minutes and minutes became distant memories. Because with you, time doesn’t stop -but flies away. Consuming each minute as if it were our last , out of breath, out of love we are suffocating. It is time to get apart again,water slowly fills the room, and I have nowhere to feel safe again, everything feels out of place. My heartbeat is desperately trying to match yours, to reproduce the perfect harmony that once rhythmed our lives In the end I wonder : would you be the one saving me from this ocean of pain or were you the one who filled it  in the first place?
