I find beauty in the flowers that bloom at night, the stars above the sky, the people running late to school, and occasionally, I find beauty within me.
Never jump into conclusions, that's what they told me. Never jump into conclusions, an advice that might either make or break me. Never jump into conclusions, how can I not when I feel like I've pieced the puzzle? Never jump into conclusions, how can I when I'm not sure about anything? Never jump into conclusions, I'm tired of waiting for answers. Never jump into conclusions. But I already did and I was right.

Conclusions
I've been admiring you from a distance, And when they tried to introduce us, I ran. I ran like a little girl scared of the monsters behind her. I feel I wasn't enough to be introduced to you. Everytime you so much as walk a few metres near me, I ran. I ran like I was in prep school, playing tag with my best friend. I feel I wasn't enough to walk with you. Now I've been thinking, I kept running away from you. What good did it make, I ask myself. **What good did running away from you make when you weren't even chasing me.**

The Runaway
My mind cannot fathom how it happened, Amidst the cruelty in this planet, Reckless use of time, wish I didn't spend, It's a miracle that we even met. All I know is I could rely on you, Even when we are busy, reaching goals. Living, loving, still climbing to see the view, I know we'll still be in each other souls. Zigzags and humps on the road slow me down, A nice best friend like you boosts me forward. Hoping you know you're the best girl in town, Did wish for a gift, now you're my reward. Guess God sure knows I needed a best friend, My love for you will be there till the end.

And sometimes I wish I could just touch you. No boundaries, nothing to hinder my arms feeling your body heat by caressing your skin. Stare at those cute eyes that remind me of  half moons, Dig my fingers in your hair like I've imagined I did a couple of times, Listen to your laugh like a melody I would put on repeat. Feel your warmth as you outshine the sun in my eyes, Kiss those lips until I've grown addicted to the taste of you, Concentrate on the sound of your heart beating as I place my ears on your chest. And sometimes I really wish I could, but I won't. No, I wont. Not until you let me in.

Let Me In
I dont know why I try so hard For someone who wont even look my way. I even think a hundred times For perfect words I try to say I tried once more without a doubt, With all the courage I gathered inside, Guess my efforts are wasted, For I don't even cross your mind. Today I choose to be myself, I realised that I don't need you now, To be happy and contented, I know for sure, I'll show me how.

Unliked you
Hush, my fragile heart. Let your worries fade. Let go of all the bad, And have good memories made. Hush, my fragile heart... Until you find your flame again.

Hush
Tell me something negative about yourself, So I could pretend that I never even crossed your mind, And stop the spark of hope inside. Tell me something negative about yourself, So I could forget how you looked for me last night, And fall into the trap of your enchanting eyes. Tell me something negative about yourself, Help me. For in hopes of finding something bad, I might have fallen in love to both of your sides.

Half of you
My eyes swell from just thinking of that place. I've grown in love of that place. Its people, the subway stations, the city lights, the food, music, and everything in between. I didn't want to leave. It was too soon. I needed more time. I thought, can I just not show up at my flight? But I did. I did, not because I wanted to but because I had to. And now as I walk around, I'm reminded of the wonderful moments I had in that place. And I keep thinking, is it possible to have a separation anxiety to a place?

Someday, I'll Come Back
I dreamed of traveling alone. Booking hotels in the middle of the night, Emptying out the piggy bank I've used since I was 9, Packing only 4 pairs of clothes, And buying a one-way ticket to somewhere. I dreamed of traveling alone. Seeing the beauty of each city, of each town, of each country. Trying out food I've never heard before, Dancing in the streets with the locals, And learning the language used in my destination. I dreamed of traveling alone. Now I'm in the middle of a street I can't pronounce, In the 18th city on my diary, watching people go on with their lives. I find them so fascinating that I could watch them all day. But I have to go, Move on to my next pinned place. My heart is filled with happiness, my mind is enchanted with how precious everything is. I dreamed of traveling alone. Now I am living my dream, And I hope this goes on.
