21/M/China A poet seeking for life. Hope for interaction and finding a sense of belonging here!
The moonlight shines upon the starry streets, Silver elves travel through the empty night. Sad eyes swept over by the liquid screen Dream about misty dock and the green light. The young prince trades sunflower, mad and bold, For his danger solitude in the yard. But to know that the stone would not be gold Shapes the pyramids with a golden heart. Every leaf talks and heard by the Greek Gods, Whispers to Muse, you're sweeter than most. Then verses and curses swim to my box, Insomnia 'n melancholia make me boast. To make a final grab before she leaves, Winding roads diverged ere one achieves.

O~ captain, captain! Here comes the awakening of the summer, And also, mon sommeil as a voyager.

O~ captain, captain!
I’m a star, Aligned with others in the dark, Millions and trillions of dreams— Gravitation pulls their light in streams, And they shine so bright, Yet each has its own plight.

Stars
When he turns off the light, He sees no one inside. Blackness of purity, purity of chaos. He still sees those eyes, Something looms over his mind That he sometime dreamed about, That he sometime thought about, That he sometime uttered about. And in those dreams, When blood rushed through his brain, When he experiences it all over again, When he jumps out of it to see What he had been through, He then feels and comes to know A daunting fact— The hidden depression he knows, When the past still haunts And hunts for its prey.

When He Turns Off the Light
Honey, don’t cry, And don’t you ever! A diamond will fetch its highest prize If you shed one tiny tear! And honey, don’t you ever be sad, You’re faster than the brightest comet, So the past won’t haunt you Even if he tries very hard to. You’re the fire, either the water, Burning as the core of the earth Or cold as the silence of the cosmos, Or you’re equally powerful in between. You’re beautiful, my darling In your very own way You’re nature made You’re who you yourself made One and only among this vast Milky Way.
