I have shattered love
with clumsy hands

always grasping
for affection
at the cost
of myself

I want to love
fearlessly

but my heart
is timid
from the cracks
it bears

kissing strangers
in the dark
and hoping
it will heal
itself

but it never does

and I live
under the burden
of unrequited love

a dog and a man
through the window
of my lyft.
a man with his thoughts
in his head so adrift.
a dog with his owner
laying patiently for command.
an owner and his dog,
a leash in his hand.

Hello

Like a feather free to drift
They fall

Into pieces..
Stand tall

Pick up the fragmented memories
Electric energies
Nostalgic synergy
Painful comfort in me

The then and the now..

Buried deep..
Smiling..

Its a monster
An angel
My dreams..
My nightmares..

Lines of time draw invisible lines of age that prove I've become less and more at the same time..

No matter what
Through all ups and downs..

You are mine..

Hello, my close enemy..
Hello, my distant friend

Soothe and break me..
Mold and make me..

Hello.. Mirror..

Love.. And hate me..

Hello..

You told me you had my back...
Now my shadow is still behind me,
And where on earth are you?

My aunt tells me

Be careful with your heart

And I promised her I would

But I couldn't tell her

That it wasn't my heart I had to be careful with

It was my mind
Anxiety is never going to go away...is it
