I am trying to pull myself together Every single day, trying to make it through I can't do this I feel like a dog pulled by the neck I can't seem to breathe and my breath has become someone else's My feet are buried deep and I'm destroying the flowers I'm being dragged through I stopped eating from the hand that once was there I miss it but I can't seem to piece it all together How something so full could pass faster than the weather I can't stand on my own, I can't do this I saw the beauty in things other's didn't This beauty was never beautiful Everything I did seemed to be wrong I am everywhere yet I can't seem to grasp a hold of myself My thoughts through my fingers My breath is not mine anymore

My breath is not mine anymore
I clearly remember your touch against my skin From the goosebumps, to the very hair on my middle finger standing I wanted to run away but that only happened in my head Two years later, I am constantly reminded with this engraved You're happy in a two year long relationship As I type this, my hair stands and I want to puke again I never wanted to feel trapped and obliged Ever since then, my hair never grew longer than to touch my shoulders My skin was the only thing I could not change But I tried To lift as much skin off from my body to rid of what was left of you To lift the memories, to make myself clean again Till now, the hair on my arms remain, I am forever afraid

I am still afraid
The thing about me is that I write what I feel with so much positivity Only to ruin my wrists again after a year The thing about me is that I type texts And I smile across the table to make sure someone eats With that I shake my head saying that "I have no appetite" The thing about me is that I love to run I run and run, past trees, past people All in all, I run away from myself. The mirror behind the 4th door down from my living room The thing about me is that I desire to be loved Praying to God each day for him Yet when he comes, I'll break up with him within a day The thing about me is that I am every way of the word Conflicted I want to be alive yet I want to wave from above

Conflicted
It's been a near two years since I fell out of love with you We were never together and I concluded we never meant Fast forward to now, I knew that I learnt a lot about love When I was out of it And when you grabbed my hand for the first time since then I'm happy to say I was first to leave

I Can Breathe Again
I wrote a pile of letters to you Words unspoken most are true I burnt three when you left Two months later I saw you again and I wrote to tell you how I missed you but it got lost amongst the other heart breaks I burnt another three letters I saw you with your new girl, how you were laughing more than you did when with me I burnt another letter I woke up a year later wondering why did I waste all this time over you. I felt suffocation but yet it was supposed to be over Why am I still haunted over the fact that I loved you more? I took all the letters I wrote and this time, I threw it out

Letterbox
You looked good today It's been awhile I've seen your smile reflected in your eyes You were looking at her but that's okay I just got off the phone with you and you sounded the same like you did when you liked the one who broke you You weren't talking about me but that's okay You were crying, talking about how life was so cruel, how she broke you and how you were never falling in love again You got together with your fifth girlfriend and her eyes tell a different story but that's okay It was all okay to me. How you kept loving the wrong girls. You never looked at me that way but that's okay because I was there when you were fragile and I am there when your feelings are raw. It's okay if you didn't feel the same towards me I just want to see you happy

Is It Really Okay?
How fortunate it was to have someone to confide in Despite the spend of such a short time Or maybe time just passed too fast when I was falling Again What happened those 4 years surfaced again Am I one of the lucky ones? Was God warning me not to fall too fast Right one but wrong time God **** how I wished Wished you felt the same I did Where did your word go? Am I really lucky? I know you've been drinking more And I guess it wouldn't be fair if I didn't say I'm falling apart too I'm running away from you Love is who your happiness depends on And I guess that's true because I haven't smiled in awhile It's been awhile but I just want to say I am forever grateful

I don't think I'm Lucky
Coming to think of it I've come across many perfect souls The souls where everything fell in place so well with mine The coincidental matching clothes The not-so coincidental birthdates But as i grew older, I realized more and more For the soul I'm looking for Is a not too perfect one He's the one with a broken heart that fits mine He's the one who's flaws that loves mine And in the end Him who I will love Loves me for who I am And I guess that's what makes me love him

Not too perfect
I think the hardest part of loving someone Is the prologue It's the small talks The casual glances I think the aches of missing someone The wanting to know him The know that he is someone you'll fall deep for To be sure that this is a risky choice Yet I am all in to fall in love again and again In love with souls I've yet to meet All the more with the ones I've yet to know

prologues
Before my eyes laid on you My soul has already rejoiced in your presence A name to a face A face to a name You laid your hands on me I thought you were pouring your soul to fill mine 4 months later My soul guides me to walk towards you I know the way like I am walking home Each foot step takes me higher Each breath, another minute to seeing you I enjoy your soul with mine For once, I am not afraid
