19/M/Philippines yea boi
I didn't know what hit me A roller coaster ride of emotions One day I'm happy Next, I'm tired I didn't know what hit me Your love so overwhelming You caught me off-guard A love so ecstatic A love so pure A love so beautiful And I can't take it all in I'm unlovable Can't even take hugs seriously Can't even make my own cup of coffee Can't even make my brain be happy But you taught me how to You taught me all the things I can't even teach myself You made me do all the things I won't even try You even made me love myself. But you were never mine Never mine to begin with Never mine to end this

The unlovable man
In the middle of the night My world stopped spinning Moments when you walked out of the door Head is spinning and my eyes are ******* sore I knew -------this will be my last I loved you I loved you too much I was too stupid Too stupid to know how love works Too young to know how it should be Too naive to make it mine I had to take this break I have to take the blame I thought I love you and I dreamed that you loved me too Sorry for me being stupid Sorry for not recognizing the signs I was drunk of the notion that you love me back I have to pull the trigger and I know this is better for me too.

My Final Letter To My Beloved
Is there anybody out there? When I'll shout to the cosmos Will someone reply? Let me out Let me out of this world Drenched in blood Stormed by bullets Drowned in violence Will someone rise? A hero, a knight, or god maybe? Will they here what I have to say? Will humanity change the way it is?

Doomsday
The clock strikes 12 Memories came knocking on my head I thought a new day is a new beginning but why am I still struggling? The clock strikes 12 Tick, tock, tick, tock Why does midnight remind me of you? Leaving me to sing songs Of sadness and monochrome hues Why do days need beginnings? Why do days always had to end? Why do fairy tales need happy endings? What if there is no once upon a time? Singing songs of blues Everything that I had was in jeopardy of being lost Why do I need to hit reset? When all I wanted was a rewind.

Rewind
Let me go home Let me go home my love The sorrows I have dealt I can't deal with it no more I'll exchange my everything Just to gain happiness Just lead me home Just lead me home, my princess Lend me your heart Lend me your heart my love The happiness that you bring I want to take it all I'll give you my everything Just to feel your beat Just let me lend it for a bit Lend it for a bit Let me listen to your voice Let me listen to your words, my love When the wind whistle on a cold night Trees sway in pale Cicadas fill the noises Let me dance to your tune Let me dance to your music Let me dance on our campfire Let me sing in the darkness Let me shout for your name Let me hear your heartbeat Let me Just let me. For I am afraid I am afraid of the world you drew me into.

Alice's Rabbit Hole
Where were you when the lights grew dark When I was alone at a blank space from morning till dawn What type of love you have shown Who gave you the notion that love is something to be thrown Why give me I love yous when you freely give it away in your phone

The 5 Ws
A pathway lit with the lamps for the night Winter's slowly crawling through Took a deep breath then sighed As I took off my earphones I started to cry As I was playing Beethoven Something inside died Someone took my heart Flashbacks begun to start I remembered when I played Fur Elise You slept crying Trying to hide something Something you did not want me to know Hid it deep, deep down below Ran as fast as I can Just to catch up to you But I was late Now past eight and I just stood at the door gazin' You were like an angel Now dressed in white Surrounded by flowers and light Sorry, I haven't seen you in a while You were as beautiful as the sunset and grander than the bluebonnet Walking towards you Holding my tears back Heart was heavy As I glanced at you One last time Regrets came rushing Picked up my phone and ran out Shouted to the heavens Cursed at the gods Bargained to let me see her alive one last time All you gave me was music The songs, the meanings, the lyrics The notes, the keys, the rhythm Slowly I returned inside and played your gift I opened the piano It was childhood all over again Played your favorite piece, Love's Sorrow I saw an image of you Every stroke it was painful Every note I was hurting As memories came flushing and the song showed me how it made you smile and cry I want to dance with you again, Ma I will play a song and loop it for eternity I want you to sing for me again And I'll play the piano for you I will gladly be I'll dance for you Even if my feet does not want me to I'll write you endless songs Just be with me one last time I'll tell you stories When you can't fall asleep I'll kiss your forehead, Ma and I'll tell you I will always be here and you will be with me I ended the piece Like how you always ended your's and I know you'll be in peace Because all I saw you smiling One last time

A piece for regret

It was the saddest moment of my life and I can't cry I just can't It was the saddest moment of my life and I'm just lying on my bed From morning till night It was the saddest moment of my life and I can't hate you It was the saddest moment of my life and you are not here My demons, my shadows Whatever you might call it My darkness, the abyss Is eating me alive Storms raging through my mind Crying for help Crying for shelter For what I needed most I cannot find It was all happening inside of me A sky,darker than black Pain that somehow stopped the clock and some part of me died I stopped crying for help As waters from the deep ocean flooded my lungs But I can still breathe But I still can live I was dead But my body is moving Wearing a fake face With a grin on it I was dead But I was still talking Somewhat hiding from people For I was afraid to show my scars I was dead But I was still thinking Thinking if I disappear Will they cheer? But the sad thing is, Every single day was my saddest moment of my life Every single day I wanted to die Every single day I wanted to cry But every single day I just can't

A Sad Poem
If you don't love me anymore Just tell me If things got bored Just hold me If our story is not meant to be I'll let you go But if I let you go Mind if I tell you this? Hummingbirds become flocks of crow Skies go dark and the winds are cold As the sun grew dimmer And the land grew pale As my whole world came down crashing As flashbacks ran through my mind Your friends still laughing Because I was not always fine The rush of emotions The guilt,the regrets The moments I should have took No,I'm just useless No matter where I look The pandemonium inside of me The screams The whispers For all I had left Is my memory with you But I wore a mask Just to hide Hide the tears that came flowing The scratches painted through my skin and swollen fists when I fought walls Bathe myself with alcohol Just waiting for you to call But I guess I will never get it and never even think about it For I will never be okay Perhaps not today But when I'll get over you I don't even have a clue

If You Won't Love Me Anymore
Hiding beneath the darkest of caves Where few dared to enter A pale glow of light it gave As you started to shiver Torches lit as you broke in And sirens that spelled doom But you did not run away Your courage did not even sway You walked through cold halls Your a girl but you had ***** What was your goal? The wishes or my presence? Alas! You found me Rubbing the lamp gently and I still remember that day As I came out and say, "Oh sweet,sweet lord Awake from deep slumber The genie of the lamp and dazzled against your lap" You wore a mask But your eyes were too beautiful I did not even know what to ask Your name? Your wishes but only three? You wished for beauty I gave you a mirror You were angered Asked what is this for? You wished for a immortality I gave you poems For words never die But you replied, "sigh" The last thing you asked was love and I happily through myself unto you You nearly sobbed But you smiled when I told you this, "I will always be your genie of the lamp If ever you need me I will always help as your knight in shining armor" "I will always be here For I will never depart you Because you were the one Who drew me out Who let me love Who needed me when no one was around For you will always be my master and I, your servant"
