Dux Arthas De Leon Jun 12

In a void,
and on the brink of fading,
You filled hope
to a flower that is wilting.
Thy eyes radiate
In a world where everything's
filled with dusk like an endless chasm.
In a maze where path is unending,
You showed the way with a smile,
I never thought I would be the cause of fading.

I took the spotlight,
never noticing,
How it drained your light.
The flower that almost wilted--
that one flower,
that you,
brought back to life,
That was I.
How I wish I could give it back to you--
How I wish,
that as I laid my gaze
upon you,
How I wish,
that you had never gazed back.

A falling star wishing from itself

Please,
I beg of you,
I'm thy Adam--
Supposedly a star--
a star chained to you.
I cannot ascend anymore;
that gravity of yours--
pulling me downwards,
lower and lower.

I'm your falling star,
struggling
to carry it all.

Let this be the last wish.
Please,
I beg of myself,
Do not fall,
Let yourself explode,
so that, at least,
You will be seen
and remembered.

Porch

I'll sit here on our porch
humming, gazing,
still waiting;
yet unsure if I'll spot your shadow.
I know your road seems too narrow,
but why does it seem
where I'm sitting
is not on your 'to go'?
Piece by piece,
fragments of moments
withering-- slowly vanishing;
there I found my self,
the only one still collecting.
One by one,
those we cherished,
begone.
The porch where I'm sitting,
one we're both dreaming--
Is it also vanishing?
I'm slowly losing my seat,
you left me in this dream,
alone, still hoping.

"I shall hold tighter"

I don't know,
is it the sound of your feet,
or your heartbeat?
one is getting louder,
while the other
is beating
quite harder;
yet, might be
for another.
Hands are not
being held any tighter;
I miss the warmth,
It's too unbearable for this
to be colder.
Just like the trees
that needs the breeze
to move;
and just like the ocean,
that needs the moon
that pulls;
I, too,
need you.

However,
Unlike the moon,
or the breeze,
I crave,
I long,
I yearn,
for you to
not to go to the other side,
nor stop the breeze.

"The flaw in my mirror's reflection"

Whenever I set my gaze
upon the mirror,
faces of other people,
except mine,
are worth to adore.

'I' walk,
'I talk',
'I think',
'I move',
Or do 'I'?

All I am is just
a fragment of
Other people.

"Steering wheel that moves on its own"

The only thing I crave is your touch,
but my hug stings you
as it presses to your scar.
A hospital wire,
supposed to sustain life,
moves on its own--
wraps on your neck
as it drains your life.
How could I express my love
If a knife is built within my hands.

But that dagger on your heart
was not on my part;
never my intention,
but moves on its own.
I just want to love
And feel loved.
Affection is what I offer,
Yet pain is what you receive.
Can you blame me for any of it?

'Take me to our usual spot"

Wandering through streets
Whilst mind is still asleep.
Sitting in a willow tree--
Feeling the breeze of air flow beneath our feet.
Worrying 'bout nothing;
Thinking 'bout everything.

Cycling through the weirdest places,
Worrying not about getting lost,
But the memories that might've been lost.
Echoes of the vocalist,
Endless strumming of the guitarist,
Some may call us a hedonist,
But we're just a child,
Running through fields of endless possibilities.

Whilst everyone's in a deep slumber,
We lay on a grass,
Gazing at stars, thinking everything
Are just meant for us to wonder.
Scolding us won't matter,
For we're not trying to survive;
We just crave to feel alive.
