Free
Free of the rules
Free of the worry
Free to play and have fun.

We grow up
Slowly learning
about the world around us.

learning to talk
and learning to walk

We learn to have imagination
and to create with our minds

we learn how to have fun
and how to enjoy life

and so we live life
to the fullest,

thinking that this is all that life
will ever be.

That we were born,
So that we can have fun,
And play
With everybody

We didn’t care about race.

Because when we are young,
we are all innocent.

Living in a world of beauty
and excitement.

Looking at everything with new eyes
knowing we will always find something new
something that we have never seen before

Life; a bud in spring
that we are slowly watching open
so we can discover
the beauty inside.

Sights, smells,
a whole world
just waiting for us to discover them.

New things
old things,
anything
To overload our senses

The joyful trees in summer who dance with each other to the music of the wind,
The delicate butterfly in the garden who comes up to us, asking to play in the garden
The rattling truck outside our window racing towards a fire (that might be on the moon),
The lazy white clouds that form shapes in our mind, telling the story of a family of penguins,
The stories are endless…

So many new things,
that we have yet to learn about
or completely understand.

But we don’t mind
Because when everything is new,
we can’t hate anything.
We don’t know that word
Yet we don’t need to

Thinking to ourselves
that the world is huge
and that it is a wonder in itself.

That the world is a place
where everyone who we meet
could maybe be our friend
just for today

Where the only thing that limits us
is our imagination
and we can never get bored
because we can always think of something new.

Everyone wants their childhood back
Once it’s gone,

We all miss it
Because when we are children,

We are truly free.

I can never go home
Cause home is not real

Never was, a place where I felt safe
Just a building with exits
Just people who no longer exist
No safety or happiness

So why do I laugh at this
Cause it is better than
Crying out loud

I am not proud
I just never knew
The same truths as you

Home was a beautiful lie

So I say goodbye
Before I say hello
I say good night
And close out the show

Never was a home
So I stand out here
Alone in the cold

Sitting on the rocking chair
in the dark corner
of his dimly lit study
with gaze transfixed
on the steam rising
from the coffee mug
he rolled cigarette
between his fingers
caressing his forehead
with other hand
he put the cigarette
between his lips
and
inhaled the bitter smoke
with a hope that
it will be the antidote
to her memories
poisoning his soul
cigarette after cigarette
pack after pack
inhaling, exhaling...
Drowning himself
in the greyness of smoke
to the world outside,
he was nothing
but an addict
but little did they knew
that it was his only way
to save himself
to build the thick wall
of acrid smoke
between him and her ...

this city breathes.
she dances on the doorstep,
she whispers in your ear,
this city breathes.
this city is her own oyster of fortune, misfortune.
this city stops,
she abandons the light,
she lies with the night,
this city sleeps.
she is a secret that is not yours to keep,
she is a violet bruise of ecstasy,
she is a smiling face of melancholy.
this city breathes.
don't get too close, please

~T.T

I'm melting under pressure,
Body separating and dripping onto the floor.
I want to hold it together for you
Want to hold myself together for you
I'm melting under pressure,
Who will hold me?

The rivers full of sharks
The oceans full of poison
Monsters roam the land
And the sky's no place to lay your head

See the stars? They shine,
Opalescent and bright for
Us, because we finally found our
Love.

Moonlight illuminates our hearts
And each half of the whole soul,
Tied together by fate,
Everlasting love.
