as i was reading a superhero comic, in it there's a lot of superheroes.
*i thought about the relations between comics, love, and heartbreak.


in life

love was supposed to be the superhero.
and the villain was supposed to be heartbreak.

love was supposed to fill the emptiness
and heartbreak was supposed to **** people.

but we have come to an era where
love kills, and heartbreak heals.


*what is happening?
idk
I lost you in the Darkness
The light - blinded my eyes
I find you left me stranded
I find it's no surprise
I hear you're out there teasing
Whispering out my name
But you're not going to get me started
I'm not going to play your game

I'm going to keep on searching searching
Until you follow me
I'm gonna keep on searching searching searching until I find the key

I heard you come a crawling
Slipping across the floor
Saying  sorry I'm so sorry I'm so sorry
Forgive me I'll never do it no more
But I know you heard the jingle
Of the key I finally found
So you knew that I was out of here
So now you want me to stick around

Lost me in the Darkness
But you lost yourself  along the way
When you found out there are rules
Even to the games you like to play

This game will have no winners
Only losers when it's all said and done
Next time... Maybe you should remember
When you are playing with someones feelings
Its not always so much fun.

On mornings like this, I have pressing things
on my mind - digging and weeding, uncovering things
I lay here thinking of that time last spring
wandering the green fields, or in the canyon lands
under a skyful of blue, and I can't seem to move
cannot rise from this bed, I play records
spinning round my head, I play records on repeat
the bittersweet of you and me.

Every word on my mind has the power to save my life, but like a sharpened knife I keep them at my side, because this was supposed to be just another fist fight, and I fight fair even when I'm outsized.

Once was a baby that bawled his eyes out
Shush - keep it down!
Once was a boy teased so much he wanted to die
Shush - keep it down!
Once was a boy tied down by his brethren for being who he wanted
Shush - keep it down!
Once was a boy who screamed at the top of his lungs;
"I want to be free!"
Shush! - keep it down!

Once that boy grew stronger
We don't care - just keep it down!
That boy grew wings and flew his highest
We don't care - just keep it down!
Once that boy walked the path they wanted him to
We don't care - just keep it down!
That boy wrote his pain down black ink;
He sung words that just came from his mind
We don't care - just keep it down!

Once that boy grew tired of trying
So what? - keep it down!
That boy always found himself crying
So what? - keep it down!
Once that boy saw his heart breaking;
With it, his world shattering
So what? - keep it down!
That boy found himself dying
So what? - keep it down!

Not long after, a casket was borne
Wait, what happened to him?
His face covered, his body crippled
Oh my, how terrible!
People grieved his absence;
Absence that would last eternally
From a distance he whispered to them:

























































­

*Keep it down!
Worms will come when you rot

Following a moonbeam
glowing brightly in the sky
Strolling down a pathway
as we watch a firefly

Listening to a melody
sung sweetly on the breeze
All alone this evening
underneath the maple trees

Hand in hand we wander
on this perfect summer night
Dreaming of tomorrows
filled with everything that’s right

Pausing in the shadows
where we share a tender kiss
All alone this evening
in a moment just like this

Gazing on the beauty
that my eyes have come to see
Lingering my vision
when your smile is close to me

Standing in a clearing
counting every star above
All alone this evening
just the two of us in love

It's easy to  hide in the lines of sentences,

But the hardest part is lying about it.

The longer you keep it, the more painful it will feel.

You're just a click away,

Yet there's a distance between us;

The distance between our hearts.

The closer you are, the farther I feel.

They'll never know how it is.

You'll never know how I feel for you.

The heart screams the words the mouth can't utter.

I'd rather die than see you with another.

But even though I've accepted the fact that we is just I,

It's painful to let it go.

Now you're gone again.
Being happy.

I'm sorry if you read this and you're bothered.

It's long yesterday, a long-running joke, obviously numbing:

"I wish I had the courage to talk to you."
it's painful but it isn't obvious

Ball and chain,
We've spent so much together,
Ball and chain,
We are one after the other.
Ball and chain,
You're a friend than of a lover,
Ball and chain,
You're the friend, I am the lover.

I carry the weight upon my shoulders,
You drag me forward.
I've always felt down;
You'd toss me up.
I follow you wherever you are,
A bond keeps us together,
I don't even know if you would rather;
See us as a ball and chain together.

You drag me constantly,
Am I that much of a burden?
I know you want to release me,
But the lock is a mystery to open;
If you're pestered, then say it!
Why not just tell me to leave?
Why are you letting me ruin your life?
Why are you not giving me the truth?

Oh — that's what I never realized;*
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
You were chained to another.
.
.
.
.
.
All those heartaches were real, after all;
To love someone who loves someone else;
Now I know why you never said the truth;
Because you never cared anymore.
I was trapped in a dream,
A dream that is far to happen;
I chose to stay in a hallucination so tame,
It's not all your fault — I am partly to blame.

Ball and chain,
I know it's not real,*
Ball and chain,
But still it hurts to let it go,
Ball and chain,
How fast it goes by,
Ball and chain,
*It's time to say goodbye.

I am a lion
Fierce, proud and strong
I am a dragon
Fearless pre-historic
I am a firefly
Illuminating darkness
I am a butterfly
Metamorphic, miraculous
My skin changes
For I am
A shape shifter
I can transform
Into anything I please
I can be an oak
Or a holly tree
Catch me if you can
But if you do
I will change shape
And slip through your fingers
Like frogspawn
Or algae
I morph
And mutate
Vibrate and quiver
But whatever I am
Whoever I am
I am full of life’s energy
A frothing amalgam
Of evolutionary potential
I am a lion
I am a tiger
I am an eagle
I am a cheetah
I am…
I am…
I am…
