I am images and poetry merged together / And like all other artworks, it makes me hard to decipher. / / Only that it makes me more of sad, / than beautiful.
For years I believed I have sovereignty over me That the power to choose whether or not someone could get inside me Is solely on my hands Perhaps my heart was wrong, after all. For years I believed The gates were made of steel As strong as the power of heavens That whoever tries to intrude Cannot push through it Perhaps my heart overestimated its power For years I believed That I could live without the flutters of the heart Without the swirling and swarming of lights and deluge emotions I believed I am on my own That my hold on my guard has reached the strongest peak Perhaps my own heart has betrayed me.

Our eyes, given the first to see The first to know what is And what will be, Close themselves At the sight of a ray so blindinly bright At a hint of a crash At a drop of the rain And at the first beam of the sun Our hearts, given the first to sense The first to feel what is And what will be, Do not close themselves At the sight of a boy destructively lovely At the hint of a future so crashed At a drop of blood that bred from pain And at its first beat, that means more than just a petty inclination.

Do not mistake eyes for heart; A glance is just a heart's impulse.

“It’s not love if you don’t see him as your favorite line in Shakespeare’s poem.” she said. “But what happens if he’s more than just a line? if he’s the poem I write every night, much less the most beautiful one I have ever written?” I asked. “I hope you did not let yourself reach that point. For if he’s your poetry, and you are just the poet, you’ll soon have no use when he’s gone. You’ll still be a poet, sure. But the kind who has lost her pen, and worse, lost the power over her words.” she replied.

A Conversation: From the Book I'll Never Write
It was an enduring love; yours was ephemeral Not once did I want to put it in a halt The time I give in, I'd melt all at once When in dire strait, I'd put the self on trance For of why do I love And inflict myself its own pain; Never did I ask, never did have, For greater is everything than all that.

I Still Love
That's why I love to write I can make all things possible Even us.

Would you believe I feel If I haven't sensed anything for years? Would you believe I admire If I have been cold my whole life? Would you believe I dream If I only dream about you? Would you believe I love If it's only with you?

Would You Believe?
I asked for your hands You gave me knives I asked for the truth You gave me lies I asked for laughter I was given cries I asked for honesty I was awakened by infidelity I asked for hope I was given ropes I asked for a little rest I was given death

Death
Of cold air 
and gloomy clouds
 Such darkness on it
 It let go the rain Like the girl I see
 Sitting next her paper
 Ripping the pages 
 out of melancholy Water streaming 
Down her face
 Night castling a paradise 
 And seeking refuge with dreaming. I saw the girl
 Writing in pain
 Howling because of
 Anguish
 And all her hopes drained I saw the girl Staring back at me in the mirror.
