I will love you another time.
I whisper your name and your voice echoes back. so I whisper of what we had, but I get no response, so I scream this time, louder,and LOUDER, but there is no echo, there is no host. I tear up a bit cause I was hopeful, I turn around to leave, but then your voice echoes, "I miss you too"

Reaching out
Something tells me you will come back one day. It's in the way you tell me you will be in touch. In the way you question me if I have someone new, incessantly, I might add,  and to the rhythm of jealousy. It also comes in the way you still tell me I'm beautiful, and how you long for me, how you think of me in all you do. But we are at a time when love forbids. And the only thing you can do is drop subtle hints. You will come back one day, and I will be here, because I always remember what I lost, and I always have faith in what will return.

False hopes
You gave, you loved, you lost, you received, you reprieved. A cycle I thought you were going to keep on repeat. But I forgot the most important step, defeat.

Motion
You left me at a time I didn't need leaving, You stayed at a time I didn't need staying,          But you never loved me when I needed loving. When will you ever decide to meet me halfway?

Unwanted circumstances, nonexistent longing.
I present to you a weapon, an almighty sword called Passion. I yielded it with pride and glory, hoping for anyone to claim. It attracted both angels and ghouls, and I chose to give it to the latter because I was an eager fool. I gave it to the devil with the halo, and the sword turned against me. He ceased my time, love and lust. I gave it all but it was never enough. He drained my soul dry, and emptied my well, Passion to my throat, me under his spell. He threatened to cut me, so I endured, but the day came and I cut the cord. I let myself bleed as he released his hold, here comes the end of a story once untold. Now this is where something new begins, the part where I realize I'm ready again, Here I stand before you with tired arms, ready to give you what I once gave. Now that you know what I've been through and what this blade can ultimately do, I pray that you take it and use it with truth. Do what you must, and do what you will, but I beg of you to keep this in mind, know that this is what killed me before, please, just please, don't be unkind.

New Territory
Every inch of pain and heartache I have suffered, became cement to build myself the highest walls. The tears I've cried through seasons and years, became solidified to build myself a cocoon of deep sorrow. And I am a big girl now, in a sense that when something horrifying happens, my first instinct isn't to cry anymore. Instead, I stare at this imaginary oblivion, thinking how irrelevant all of this would be, if I jumped down a ledge. True love is what everybody hopes for, a concept everyone would eagerly embrace in a second. It's just a pity that not everyone knows what the repercussions are, if you apply this love to the wrong person. You'd think of that ledge again, incessantly, until you finally do it. You give in to your demons, the past, and your sorrows, you jump. Unless of course.. you find the right person, before anything else.

Ignored Advice
Running through fields of green, Sparks of lonely laughter, and a gentle wind. I spin around and spin some more, until I wake up dazed, on the cold hard floor. Tears greet me with the same formalities, a reflection laughs at my insanity. I try to stand and I shake and squirm, Only to end up wriggling, like a dying worm.

Montage
In the dark and I can't see, gave you the candle, you were the oxygen, And now I can't breathe. The fire that sparked consumed us whole, I thought you'd stay but you killed my soul. Amidst the cosmic planes, I took in your being, tried to take me back, but I felt us dying. Our love became a star, Long dead and long gone, still high on its fumes though, Awaiting, a new dawn.

I dug up a hole where I stashed every memory of you I ever had. You see, I started doing this ever since you casted on me a storm where betrayal kept pouring down, relentlessly and mercilessly. Not wanting to get wet again, I figured that if I dug a hole and slowly buried bits and pieces of you in it, I'd summon the courage to forget you and leave you before another storm came around. Days passed, and the hole got bigger, the things I thought I'd get rid of, lodged themselves deeper, and in all that time spent digging and burying, I never left. "Any minute now, I'll show you what a heartbreak feels like," I smirked, thinking I was the smart one for once. Where I thought I was ahead of, you've long accomplished and another storm came around, this time with the wrath of its friends, tornados and cyclones. It took me by surprise as I frantically searched for your face, but you already saved yourself, while I, sought to take refuge in the hole. I stayed there for months clutching onto those memories as if my life depended on it. I survived on the idea of your smell, your laughter and your kisses. Then one day, I hear you calling out my name and it made me cringe. I climbed out of the hole, and I could see that the storm had long passed and the sun was shining. "God **** it, what the hell are you still doing here?" You look baffled, almost annoyed. "Uhm," Your face barred me from words and I must've looked like an idiot. Silence pursued and that's when all my emotions came coming at me like a million knives down my throat. "Didn't you come to get me back?" A look of pity washed all over your face and your eyes were downcast. You turn your back to me and said, "I came to reset my karma, I got you out of that mess, it's time you get out of ours." You walked away without even looking back. With fists clenched, I climbed back into the hole, I lay there and I closed my eyes. "You didn't reset nothing." // END //

I don't have a friend to call my own, and perhaps this is a flaw of mine. To kick them out way before they even think to go in. Fearless and independent, is what I believe I am, and I am what I think I am, however, I am also what i deny myself to be, and that being just a tad bit lonely. Lonely, or alone, I still can't quite decide, but my effervescent spirit, begs to differ, she enjoys my company and so does my shadow, I'm but a pill not many will swallow. So until I can find other hard-headed pills, I will be contented living in this reality, sipping tea or coffee, depending on my mood, thinking of words to praise this inner anguish.
