No matter how loud I dream,
I might still be drowning deep

Into the silver your delusional eyes scream
And Into the rain the sky weeps

You kept my dream protected within your fist,
the secret dream that I built from dust.

I gave you all of me over and over,
And I kept sinking lower and lower.

I sank into the realization that it's real,
I was torn and It was so hard to believe

And through the mist,
You promised, We'll rise again

And told me that you'll keep your promises
And won't just run away like others did

But still your gone and I can't find you.
I search the sky and my gaze lands on the same star.

I die again and again wondering if that's where you live,
But an illusion of your smile is all you ever give.

My soul is riven with cracks so deep and I think,
maybe someday they'll break through the surface of my skin.

Honey, please come back to me again,
Please don't let another wish go in vain
-MAY
I don't know how I feel
I am either too much or too little
I want to become ash
Fly away, free in the air and sky
Or to become ripples
In an unending ocean
Alas, I am grounded
with these feet that are so heavy
and these bones that can barely hold me
I am too much of the body,
Too little of the self
what remains of my mind is shadowed
what remains of my heart is cluttered

This joy, gone.
There is no clarity in murky water
No beauty in polluted skies
I feel very sad

I Fell In Love With You**

I fell in love with you
slowly,
syllable by syllable,
word by word,
poem by poem
imagining the moon’s
dancing affair with stars,
twinkle by twinkle.
And then
all at once
like the explosion
of a super nova
affecting distant galaxies
and down to my very soul.
~~~
I fell in love with you gently,
the way a dew drop
glistens in the morning sun,
the way a flower often opens
to a moonlit song.
~~~
But like all love worth holding,
it turns to fire-
raging,
uncontrolled,
wild and consuming;
you have become the flames
dancing across my skin,
smoldering brightly
within my heart
turning me into the sweet smell of ash.
~~~
I fell in love with you
slowly
then quickly,
the way a meteor flashes
as it skims across the night sky
or hearts melt
within an ******* sigh.
I fell in love with you.
Sorry.

We'll hide when the storm comes upon us
I'll cover you and keep you protected

I'll carry the weight of your dreams
You'll only carry my love

My every breath is yours
Ask for them anytime I won't hesitate

My soul belongs to you too
Ask for it and I'll lay it before you

I'll be your shade from searing sunlight
I'll be your light in invincible dark

I'll be warmth when you're cold
I'll be the savior to whom you'll hold on

I'll be the hand who'll steady you
I'll be the one who'll heal you

Because, love, you're the one who defines me
I'm the darkness of light but I'll save you

I'm concrete, I have no breaking point
Except just one and it's you

Don't cry, love, I'll shatter
A chasm will sink into my soul and I'll scatter

And I'll break with a faint mist
No sound, no screams just one wish

That if I break and you'll never cry again
I'll die again and again until I drink all your pain

And bury it within me where you'll never find it.
Because it's so dark here inside and no light is lit

I'm asking the first time and the last
Please don't ask me to return your pain

And those tears and scars and cracked hope
And the broken dreams and gray rainbows

That's the past, love, just move on
Don't be scared, I'll never leave you alone

For I've loved you for so long
And now I can't turn back for I'll be lost

because I don't know for whom to look for
Because I don't know what I was before

I just remember the darkness before you came
The infinity of silence, screams and shame

The black nightmares and fallen fate
Bleeding words and burning hate

The chasing vacancy and inflating hollows
It was deep within, I wasn't shallow

I swear I felt my bones break
I swear I felt the emptiness wake

And claw at my insides
And All I could was hide

So I hid and screamed
And you found me with fissures and seams

I unraveled and let you heal me
for I didn't have the strength anymore

You took my breaths and filled me with yours
And looked into my eyes and told me you love me.
