when my heart is done aching
the pain moves to my head
the feelings swarm to my mind
because simmering in my heart
does them no good
at least when they make my head ache
they are allowed to boil over
and be released all at once
captured in headache tears
that once were heartache feelings

silent
song
on
lips
where
silence
often
rests.

Im still stuck on the same old gear
guess the weather,
It’s my second summer.
Just so you know, Im still here
Heart still linger
wearing your sweater

I know I can’t be like this forever
but just so you know
Im right here down the corner
Waiting for you to sit,
next to the *****

If ever that happened,
bring me some coffee brewer
So i can keep you accompany,
and make you some coffee
so ill make sure you’ll stay longer
put extra sugar

maybe not now, not quite today,
but somewhere down the winding way,
when time feels right and skies align,
your path will gently cross with mine.

i won’t rush fate, i’ll let it flow,
there’s still so much we’ll come to know.
no need for maps, no need to see—
we’ll meet again. we’re meant to be.
Politics create barriers.

Art builds bridges.
Waves caress my feet,
ever so gently,
wind murmurs words of love
to me,
the sun kisses my soul
so warmly.

Within this ocean of affection,
my thoughts tremble,
but my heart yearns
to drown deep,
lost in the ebb.
Love yourself~~~~~
(even when life’s a mess, even when you feel unworthy, even when clouds of doubts and fears surround you)

Imagine creating a masterpiece happily, only to hear someone call it ugly and unworthy.
Yeah.... and that's how God and our parents feel when we talk down on ourselves
All the things we never said,
go round and round inside my head.
For once
would someone listen
here what I say and mean
not what was inked?

Would someone help
unravel this mess
help file correctly
help me live?

For one person
its another day in the office
for me
this is my life now...

If only this nightmare could end
