23/F Growing my garden. 🌺
Why’d you have to prove That I was right all along? Isn’t it too soon for this song To end abruptly and mock love?      Now, I can’t finish headstrong, I have nothing from above. Do let me box you without glove Or let me hate you a lifelong.

Checkmate
Nothing good ever happens after 2 AM. You should have gone home, Poured a glass of wine, Listened to Ted Mosby As you watched HIMYM. You should have refused That cup of coffee, Exposing your heart out In the process of enjoying Whatever ‘that’ you have. It’s past two in the morning, Hug that pillow, go to bed. Sleep now, peacefully And rest well my heart.

Two o’clock
If you could read my mind, You’d see a thousand papers Filled with broken poetries And deadbeat proses Full of woeful verses With mournful pieces Of unfinished stories That are yet to be written And failed to be spoken; If you could read my mind, You’d hear horrible screams And earsplitting weeps From shattered dreams, Kept in a nasty notepad, Scribbled on a bed Of bloodstained words, Ringing in my head. If you could read my mind, You’d see the shadows That lurk within me; You’d hear the bellows, Screeching the words “I’m tired,” “I’m a failure,” “I’m stupid –” I know it sounds stupid, It’s pathetically foolish And seems like ******* If you could read my mind, You’d feel the tears I had ever failed to cry; You’d see the people That make the weak weaker; You’d see the monsters That consume my head; You’d hear the hollers That failed to be freed; You’d see the heart That still bleeds and bleeds. If you could read my mind, You’d see the face I’ve failed to show back then, The face I’ve faked back then. If you could read my mind, You’d see a character I had ever failed to become If you could read my mind, You’d be able to read A book you never wished To touch and read, But sometimes I still wish Someone could read my mind.

If You Could Read My Mind
"You have the most expressive eyes," I whispered. Sigh. I wished you heard it. I still don't know... Is it the way your eyes outshine the stars     whenever you gladly walk me through     on how your team won a game or two Or is it the way you lay your soul naked      to me every time you play a song      whilst listening, to you I'll doze off so long That I loved more about you. I thought I'll never know... If with the same lens I used to capture you,      we clicked for a snap second once or twice;      fragile as we are, have we developed lies? If the stares during the exchange of wits,      bear no meaning like a card discarded      or 1/6 chance of 4 when a thrown dice landed Will a twisted meaning seem right and wrong at the same time? "You have the most expressive eyes," you mumbled. "I love you too." I cried.

Eyes (Happy Version)
"And what if I lost my sight..." Have you ever wondered how it would feel to be blind? Without a sense of sight, will you be left behind? Would the people around you, to you be so kind? "And what if you've lost sight of me..." Do you know how the night feels without the moon? Without the sun on a happy morning in June? I don't wanna know the answer, it's just so soon.

I'd like to tell a story of the worst tasting shrimp I've eaten this eternity. It's hard to separate the shell from its meat, when they seem to go as one like those words thrown in that beat. It gets even harder to swallow, especially with water draining out from you in the mellow.

Worst Tasting Shrimp
A night of drum beating, maraca shaking and guitar strumming, who would've thought that a moment sought could unveil thousands of possibilities. The odds in our favor, without cards on the table, unstable as it is, a hope through the night exploded like jenga blocks stumbled. With a much wanted polaroid, comes the 'see you again' likelihood but take it slow, take it slow; enjoy the night and each other's sight, put emotions on hold, don't let it show. A few selfie and some jokes thrown, we've explored the streets like its our own; realized something have grown yet we say goodbye -- the words we spilled like a mourn. I can't say its inevitable but free falling unto you is just highly probable.

Coffee Beans and Butterflies
Meet me for sometime, cut the chase of what ifs and hows; maybe we'll star in a pantomime in a world only us knows, where two is not a prime but will 'us' be what this encounter follows?

At first there were two, two just became a multiplier, of those red fireflies dancing to the sick beat of zooom, broooom and wshhhh. They flied further as I rolled forward; left to right and right to left they wiggled, never overlapping; just above, below or beside the other it created beautiful chaos. Trapped in time of ****** stars, accelerates as orange turns green. Yellow trails, red fireflies sped past through me; everything became blur. The pair of red fireflies flew unstoppably, and that was the last thing I saw.

Floating Lights
There's this itch I feel but haven't figured it out yet; is this a drive to speak for the unspeakable, or an urge to spill words like blood from a wound? There's this itch I feel but haven't figured it out yet; is this a trigger for a wreck that is to come, or a spark of idea from a wicked mind I can't own? There's this itch I feel but haven't figured it out yet; I can't scratch it like a card, gambling for a prize, nor can I treat it with alcohol, poured on rashes or drank in a rush. There's this itch I feel but haven't figured it out yet; it clouds my visionless eyes, naked or on lenses it agitates my trembling hands, I can't smunpew.
