She feels like she's slowly drowning From the sea of questions left unanswered Crashing like gigantic waves, reeling her Into the unfathomable depths of her mind Trying hard to reach shallow waters Seeking out to glimpse the moon But the ocean has got a strong grip on her That an unwanted feeling slowly loom Entrapped in it's cold yet peaceful demeanor Slowly submitting to the phantom's silent gaze The girl that tirelessly tried to swim back ashore Succumbed herself to the ocean's masked embrace So, tired, she closed her eyes The song of the sirens is so captivating Snared by the ocean's tranquil facade "I guess...I wouldn't mind staying"

Drown
I wonder... What if I confessed to you when I had the chance? What if I let you hear the words that long to be spoken? What if I told you the truth instead of saying nothing? Would our story have a different ending? Or are we really doomed to just be friends from the beginning?

What if
Have you ever seen a starless sky? Asked the little girl Where when you look up,you see nothing But a blanket of despair An epitome of darkness Cloaked in clouded fear Shrouded little darkened stars A fallen angel's tear The curious girl then looked up Towards the little boy Anticipating his reply Tightly hugging her little toy Do you believe a starless sky Really does exist? Or is it just how you percieve And what your mind insists? Do you think that stars are not there Just because they can't be seen Or maybe they just need more time To light the sky up like how they've been The little boy, full of wonder Questioned back the puzzled girl Saying things that can't be seen Doesn't mean that it's not there You see, the little boy spoke There really is no starless sky It all depends in what we believe And the viewer's eyes

Star(less) Sky
She was like a star An unnoticed one, that is With spark not darker than normal But not brighter than this So, in order to be seen She did her best to shine She wanted to fit in So she pretended she was fine And yes,she did it Her spark was perfectly sheeny And people came to notice her While other stars were envy But then one faithful night Without warning, she darkened Everybody was confused I guess they have forgotten They didn't see what's within And focused on what's out They forgot a star shines brightest When it's starting to burn out

Starlight
You were my sun As I was your moon And ours was a rare eclipse of the midnight sun and the midday moon At least It used to be.

Us
It feels like I'm writing a story that is sure to have no happy ending. And instead of being the one behind the pen, I'm the one being written.

In Control (?)
Why are you doing this to me? Making me wait anxiously for your replies Making me worry by telling me lies Lies like you're fine, and you're okay While your eye says otherwise Why are you making things so complicated? Making me question whether it's coincidence or fated Making me wonder, are we really connected Or are we just two lost souls longing to be accepted You see, I don't even know what's happening to me I don't know what we are and neither what we'll be I myself am not even sure if there really is a 'we' Or is it just a make-believe story I made in my fantasy

Tell Me Otherwise
How can you have this effect on me? You make me overthink You lead me to confusion You give me mixed signals I don't know what's going on You don't ignore my chats But you don't reply fast You say you'll lend an ear But always shuts your mouth You tell me your okay That you're fine and you can manage But I know deep inside You're just afraid out of your cage I told you that it's fine That I'm here and I'll listen I'll wait 'til your okay To get out and speak your mind That's why I'm waiting, and waiting I'm waiting 'til you talk Because I want to hear you In your heart I want to walk But it feels like I'm waiting For something that'll never come And instead of saving you I'm slowly falling down I'm afraid of what's happening Heck I'm even terrified What will become of me now? If in your darkness I'm petrified I want to listen to you too To hear your darkest little thoughts To reach great depths in your water And in your maze be a little lost You make me feel indescribable feelings Make me act in an unfamiliar way Make me wish upon shooting stars And make me speak words I dont say I was intrigued by your mystery Captivated by your smile But what really kept me hooked Is the sadness in your eyes I want you to lean on me too Like how I lean on your shoulder But even though you're not pushing me away You're not fighting to keep me either
