Look out my window to find
the shadow of the sun
done with playing in corners
So watch the mourners paint in black and gray
To their dismay, the corpse arises
to an elegant ballet of dissonance
with perfect timing and diligence
The taste of iron and sugar
bloom in my mouth, sweet and bitter
But still yet I am a slave to the flitter of
butterfly wings beating
so easily with a fleeting sense of obscurity
So yet i look out my window
to find the shadow at peace
but the insanity will never cease
The stars sleep
wrapped in their black silky blankets
Unaware of the wishes
made upon them

Tucked in by the sun
and the moonlight their beacon of protection
like the door left cracked open
and the search beneath the bed

They dream unaware
of the horrors happening
just below their delirious forms

Naive stars don't see
the midnight terrors
that happen
beneath their sniffling noses

Protected by their firm imaginations
that everything's alright
Assured that there's nothing to fear
in the night.
I'm sinking deeper in between
Falling into spaces within
My heart's beating
Filling in vessels
That was left abandon during the fractions
My mind's leaking
Pleasant sweet memories
You've left embedded
When you created stars while I was dreaming
Each time when you forsake me
Disappearing swiftly
Into the nights leaving only rememberings
My heart is searching
For every time
When the night skies reigns
Only the moon and the stars
Can they explain

THE MOON

You are my moon
And I am the night
Showering you love always
While you light up my sight
Your silent sacrifices always goes
Unheard
Selfishly enduring rays from the morning light
Burns
For I'll understand
When night falls and you leave me
Dancing alone with the stars
I'm thinking

THE STARS

You are my stars
Drawn so perfectly in my sky
You twinkled and danced to the firelight
Reminding me throughout
My night
Why should I still reign
When my moon is nowhere out of sight
For the moon needs her space
To heal from the morning light rays
Soon she will resurface
Promising a smile on her face
I'm missing

For your stars is still here
Dearly my heart hold on to your memories
For I will patiently wait for the moon
You should know that you're worthy
So come what may
Even the morning light rays
I'll still hold on to my words
Even if I'm left here to hurt

She was the light in the darkness
and the flowers in a spring field
She gave herself to you
because she swore she would always love you
She let everything go for you
but she was the one you let go

It’s been a long while
I haven’t seen you much these days.
I know it’s my fault
And I am sorry.
I am sorry that I stayed up late
With my vices
I am sorry
That I end up not waking up
With you.
I am sorry and I am regretful.
I miss your hints of orange bliss.
And the sound only you can make.
And how you embrace me with your coldness.
I miss the thoughts that come into my mind
Only when I am with you.
I miss starting everything with you.
Starting everything right.
I miss the way I feel vigorous
Only when I see you.
I miss you
I miss myself.
We were almost lovers,
And now we are just strangers
Don't say that things will get better
I know we will never be together

No matter how much time has gone by
There is not a day I don't cry
I lie to the world that I'm fine
What you've seen are just broken smiles

Your blue eyes are what I miss
As well as them gentle kiss
I remembered myself so bliss
I shall never forget this

Every single night I pray
That this pain will fade away
But I never once pass a day
Without my night becoming so gray

I'm trying hard to love you less
Though this really does depress
Almost lover, I have to confess
You are the only one I want to possess

You are everywhere I go
I feel your breath when the wind blows
Without you, time is so slow
In my wrecked heart, it snows

Almost lover, you have me
Even though you cannot see
Whoever, however you want me to be
it's the fortune, I can't flee

— The End —
