From the nebula I rise / An insignificant speck / And though my light is dim / I choose to shine still
Once I was your world A utopia in the realm Of your dreams Where skies are blue And shooting stars Make dreams come true And so I turn Breaking so I can bend For beautiful sunrises For the most beautiful sunsets The bright moon up for nights With stars like your eyes You ran on meadows Bloomed flowers in our spring The rain was beautiful too So were the hailstorms for you In the winters we’d laugh Until the next autumn comes I profess my love in seasons Freezing time on beautiful moments Laying out the stars for you Promising you the world Myself, and so much more But when the stars don’t shine And the snow won’t fall When the hailstorms bruise And flowers in spring don’t bloom The world won’t be enough So the universe you’d explore

the world; the universe
Blue was the color of the skies Littered by fireworks, Our hopes and dreams When I met you One midsummer’s night There was blue in your hazel Behind the windows of your eyes You cover the raindrops In curtains and blinds So beautiful when you smile Flowers bloomed in my garden A meadow of roses blue I didn’t know what they would mean It didn’t matter As long as I had you Stripped bare of our armor Your soul was blue Dented in battle and bruised Did it ever bring you comfort When mine was too? Day by day the autumn comes The orange bright and pure Our sunsets were spent With empty spaces and hearts ‘Til my orange became blue In your absence, I was white Littered with streaks of blue I wouldn’t long for hazel eyes Or sunsets bright in hue For my favorite color since then Has only, and always been you

Hi, it's been a while I called to ask for I've been curious All these days Have you been fine? I gotta be honest, I know it's late Too late, yeah, I took a while I hope you'd still hear me out Just like old times For years, by my side Since the beginning of time You were there and I'm thankful, Thankful that you were mine There were things I couldn't tell you And feelings I failed to show You'd probably hate how long this would be But I thought that you should know Ever since we parted On our bed your empty space Sunshine hasn't passed through the curtains Light gone with the smile on your face I still wait for your texts Though I know you'd rather call I'm not sure why I still hope for you When I know I'm hoping for nothing at all And the days that have passed You never cross my mind For you were there and never left You haunt me all the time I still see you in crowds And places we used to be In the form of silhouettes And flashbacks of old memories How I came to let you go You gave up without a fight The you whose words were beautiful Became silence that was cold as ice "Let's live our separate lives" "I'm sorry, it's for the best" I thought I didn't deserve as much To be loved as much as love itself No, I'm not here to apologize To the damage already dealt But I may be drunk to send you this Too drunk on hurt and regret Today you're supposed to be happy For it's the day that you were born And the day you walk down the aisle With happiness that's yours to own You were the eye and I, the storm Like hurricanes we formed our home You were the peace that's meant to stay And in your life, I shall dissolve It's not goodbye for eternity Warmth of your peace I'd always seek Right now we're just not meant to be But the next lifetime, I hope it's you I still meet

an ode to our goodbye (of real people in a fictional storyline)

What would you do When winter comes The breeze blowing cold And you have no hand to hold? What would you do When the flowers bloom And the world comes back to life But you feel like dying inside? What would you do When waves come back to the shore And you have no clue Where home is anymore? What would you do When dead leaves pile up And everything that falls Gets caught except you? The years have passed The seasons too But if you feel stuck In the same old place What would you do?

What would you do?
See me in a mountain of petals That I push under the rug Just like the feelings I hide To save me from falling further I'm muffled coughs and aching chests A personification of the spring Heart blinded and suffocated By the beauty that is you Dawns are spent in bathroom stalls My heart worn on the soles of my feet Cursing the ache of what cannot be For loss and longing, entirely He loves me not, the law repeats For what it's worth, Don't spare me the humanity Only in death shall I forfeit Forever my heart in camellia sheets, Forever for you it tries to beat.

You live in the memories inside me The flashbacks at the slightest trigger You're in the footsteps I take Holes in the ground that lead nowhere You're in the cup of coffee that I hate For I still crave a sip in the wee hours of dawn You stay on tabletops like the dust of summer Falling slowly only to stubbornly linger You're the sunburn etched carelessly on my skin Wishing for the pain to go and nostalgia to stay You are the sun, the moon, the stars and the sea The air inside my lungs, forever within me.

I'm in love with pretty brown eyes Sparking like the stars in the sky And a voice so sweet, I always melt My legs grow weary when he smiles I think of him for days and nights Of how gently he strums the guitar And although oceans apart we are Not once have I felt his hands were far Oh what I'd give to see that smile Or spend every morning by his side But all I could do is look up high And tell the stars and deities divine "As long as you're happy, I'll be fine"

Too much of something, they said Won't do me any good But in your absence I realized That too much of nothing was worse Than somethings I've indulged in

Indulgence
How lovely is the boy Whose smile brings about spring The lines forming his face Engraved in my memory with his smile And maybe if it's winter outside I see the flowers bloom all the time How majestic is the boy Whose poise speaks of royalty And though a peasant lowly I may be The way he reaches out, so carefree Makes me feel the rags I wear Are riches too, when it touches he How dandy is the boy Whose gestures are of a child The sun-kissed skin that glows When frolicking under the sunlight And a mind though a handful of years ahead He sometimes chooses to play instead How gracious is the boy Who forgets his roots never He prays and thanks for blessings Even in the stormy weather And never once he has forgotten The shelter he takes when he has fallen How thankful I am for the boy Who was born on the cold harsh winter For he forged a spirit of warmth And his heart makes this world feel kinder As I stare at the boy that I adore I couldn't ask for anything more
