Struggling to live.
The Vessel Something that allows me to release my past And have the capacity for my uncertain future The Vessel Something that can transport me fast While having my safety ensured The Vessel Something that drove past All the obstacles that have been giving me pressure The Vessel Like a steady vehicle that has a vast Space that can fit in my past, present and future

The Vessel
The night was icy but I didn't mind I grabbed and slowly pulled my blanket up My teeth were anxiously ready to grind When I strangely felt something creeping up I open up my eyes, quivering but brave "Who are you and what do you want from me?" I boomed and suddenly I'm on a grave I got on my feet and start running speedily Before I know it, I'm already in my bed Sweating profusely, thanking Almighty God I'm not dead.

Icy cold.
When love's not returned Souls shattered into pieces Trust no one, no more.

The Unrequited Love
Surrounded by darkness Causing uncomfortable emptiness To creep into this space While I wait for his embrace The chill breeze caresses The windows while gently presses Against this parched skin I honestly have no idea where to begin The weather is indeed crippling Intensely and slowly killing This fragile being inch by inch Sadly the pain is just like a pinch. I need to be pulled out of this bottomless pit Drawing me close with hope and grace bit by bit Despite the darkness, I’m still counting the days Hoping that I will get to be back in your embrace.

Still holding on.
You came to me asking ever so gently If I needed any help while I was grilling You gave me butterflies while you beamed As your voice echoed in my ear It was only just a day but we managed to click so well As if our searching souls have long known each other Days become weeks, Weeks become months, It's been more than a year and in Freo, we Spent time together with our hearts in harmony Do you still remember when we were playing 'Just Dance' And you made me surprised by lifting me up, totally nonchalant? Days become weeks, Weeks become months, I have always wished to caress your face, As we stare at each other while we embrace Without you, I feel as if half of my soul is gone As you genuinely respect and value me as a woman, like none Days become weeks, Weeks become months, Now we're taking a break and it's fine, Because you're still in my heart and you always shine.

Half of My Soul
Why do I have to go through this? When will the chattering ever stop? Am I capable enough to follow my dreams? I wonder as I turn the doorknob. Every cell in my body was hated by every cell in yours I was only a child Would you rather suffocate me in drawers? What do you even benefit from it? Being happy in front of others But spit hateful words without people knowing Oh what a hypocritical pretender It’s like being Chained up Whipped up Getting all messed up Or like the cool cyan water Being ferociously consumed by the swift fiery orange Rushing through like the high tide Seine delta But Plushies, Blankies and Aromatherapy Radiate through every inch of my body, Experiencing tranquillity Faintly hearing... “Are you alright love?” “I was afraid you would.” “I’m glad that you’re okay!”

Smultronställe
The never-ending chattering Like a bullet train forcefully dashing Across the endless tunnel, wondering, “Is this a curse or a blessing? “ In the bottomless pit, clearly drowning Clearly struggling While others are just intently watching Thinking it’s all just... acting.

...acting?
Is it legal To be addicted? Will I be sent to rehab For being addicted to you? Is it legal To have butterflies in my stomach As our lips meet, While you hold me close to you, Will I be judged For feeling this way? Is it legal To feel like I belong to you As you look at me affectionately, Touching me like never before, Sending shivers down my spine, Will I be punished For letting you love me this way? Is it legal To holding you, And not wanting to let you go Because it feels right? *Will I be ****** For wanting that? I'm addicted. I'm addicted to all of you. ...And I'm not even guilty.

Addiction.
Bury me deep into the Earth So that no one could find me. **** my life out dry Like how you usually do And leave me. Because I deserve it.

Leave me.
*It keeps creeping in   Slowly, Indulging in every cell   Deep within me.* *What freedom do I have now?   When all I can ever do Is counting   The days down.* *The throbbing   The stinging The tugging   The aching* What did I ever do   To deserve this pain *That’s been haunting me   For weeks?*
