24/F/Singapore For a pessimist, I’m pretty optimistic IG: @subtle.is.good / Tumblr: @reflectionsandco
The sky amidst I think of those I miss Even a day could change Things we never thought age I think of us Sitting on the bus I will change for us Why am I holding a dry husk Of the people I fought for Some not anymore Some are ropes I pull no hopes I would go back My mind playbacks I walk on empty shells My heart aches as hell You people are here But can you hear My thoughts that linger Maybe you no longer tingle The rain still patters I am in fetters The sky hangs amiss I wonder about those I miss

The rain patters
I’m so useless All out of tears Just wanna lay here With no one near I have so much fears Crippling up in jeers “Not good enough” is all I hear My own thoughts I fear

F stands for Fears
I’m afraid I’ve fallen in love The idea of company sounds great Family, friends, soulmates I love the silence Now some chatter feels good I’ve changed I long for company

Hi I’m Lonely
The hurting tree writhes See the ivy all around Its mistakes they bind You may not see as I do There is life if you look close

The hurting tree (a tanka)
And I want to tell I just have to yell That I’m blessed beyond words Despite fighting with swords It’s okay now don’t bail (bell)

It’s been a while...
If I speak my mind I unleash my inner thoughts You must promise not to get angry If I do not I cease to be myself You are content If I speak up I unleash the demons that whisper to our thoughts You must learn to silent yours If I do not I cease to understand you You fail to connect my mind (now read it bottom-up/replace ‘you’ with ‘I’)

If I do/do not speak
I was fire, you were ice You said you'd never crack I'd like to think you did Under the flames o' mine We thought we'd reached equilibrium Until things got uncomfortable Fiery as I, bitter as you We summon blows I am fire, you are ice People say opposites attract We thought the same Yet we never saw each other again

Opposites Attract
I had high hopes you’d make a sincere lover I had high hopes despite your dark past I had high hopes you were determined to change I had high hopes you understood what I meant by change I had high hopes despite our differences I had high hopes we could work something out I have high hopes now I was truly biased
