On the days I feel like you should shine more,
I'll bring my darkness.
- B.R.M.

Still figuring out if being selfless is my blessing or my curse.

I've killed myself a thousand times over with the things I've left unsaid.

Watching some of the things I've wanted most fall into the hands of another so many times I'm convinced it's part of the script.

My depth betrays me. My mind defeats me. But I know it's the only thing that will ever free me.

When you truly want something. Speak up.

Moonlight Bliss

prose #3

stars are scattered on the sky
reminiscing as the time goes by
i smile to myself as i realize
i've been strong after my sacrifice

Something Missing

I saw her again...
The one that could have shown me what love is.
The one who could have put some direction on my lost ship.

But as you know,
Every time I pick up this pen, it's to bleed ink.
When dark thoughts is all I ever think.

To cut the story short,
The ending appears to be tragic.

Don't quite know when I'll experience it but you're never really ready for it.

Fragment

"You don't have to look at something a million times to know it's beautiful, one look on its own should be more than enough."

Such words wasted on a person not worth falling for anymore.

Understanding.

I am.
I am rage.
I am pain.
I am strength.
I am perseverance.
I am determination.
I am procrastination.

I could be every thing I say I am.

But am I honest with myself all the time?

Only time can tell.....
But even time seems to escape me in my thoughts....
My...
Train of...
Thoughts at any point....

I write what I think. The rhyme comes on its own but may never come at all. Writing one piece at a time to figure why I can only write when my mind is where it should not be.
