Eli
perhaps the most complex feeling
is feeling everything at once
the sympathy of a lover
the cold from a friend
everything shattering at once
residue of a rainfall

pain flares
and the cold blooms
the heat of freezing
the coldness of mistakes
everything finally stood still
residue of a rainfall

the soft pitter patter pulling me through the night
The past has become scars and pains
Trapped in its bars and chains
Let's look towards the stars and move forward with what remains
You see it all the time
Poems strung out on pain
Shooting up words
destroying refrains
People disguised in their disguise
Pontificating truth in fact lies
Will we be dressed in black tie upon the death as we say adios , goodbye ?
Make this coda dance as the music reaches the sky
My rocket crashed
into a long, lost moon
after you steered me off course.
How foolish I was to
trust you as its
commander through
unknown depths.

Why were you the one that left?
'All is said and done',  you said.

The fruitless love that confined me
Should've let go.
Should've ran off.

The heart that drenched
from the tears i held back
still searching...
for your mellow heart.

Naive me, blinded.
Not by love, but by deceit.

Pawn for your game.
Born for this same,
ruthless heartbreak.

The mess that I'm
wouldn't have been
if you didn't claim
that I'm to blame.
Tattoos on the inside
Of my eyelids;
I saw the words
Every day—
How come I still
Never listened?
My longing for you flew away in the storm
Ran after the flood
Drowned in an earthquake breaking fate
Landed on the deadly sun
Burst into raindrops
Touched my cheeks and putting a smile
I miss u
No matter how hard I try
My heart remains
the unsolvable
rubiks cube
