Zeus handed Pandora 'pithos'.
She let her curiosity rise.
So out came

illnesses, hardships and cries,
while Pandora trapped
Hope inside.

But the myth is not quite right
When she opened the box,
I believe,

out came I.

The most evil spirit of all,
the burden on this world.
Maybe someday I can

climb back into the box,
and finally let Hope
come outside.

My blood boils
when I look at them.
I would gladly cut my arms
to burn their faces
with my boiling blood.

Dear God,
I don't want you to fix me.
I want you to help me.
So that others don't try to fix me.
...please.

There is magic in your mind
And stardust in your heart
O won't you let them both collide?
Won't you
let them both
collide?

There is serenity in your smile
And black-holes in your eyes
O won't you stand and rule the skies?
Won't you
stand and rule
the skies?

There is victory over their lies
And invisible listeners for your cries
O won't you let your fears die?
Won't you
let your fears
die?

You were made to reach the heights
With your allies, you'll rise
O won't you grow your wings and fly?
Won't you
grow your wings
and fly?

I want to witness that collision
I want to see the ruler of the skies
I want to see the graves of those fears
I want to see that elevated flight
I just hope that you are fine

Even if you're not mine
Even if you're not mine
This is meant to be a song.

I kept them aside to light my cigarette.
With sparks, smokes and mirrors,
My feelings were gone.

I  bent down and checked under my bed.
Only saw monsters frown and,
Now my dreams are gone.

I told the warlocks they were a souvenir,
That I had tried to always keep them near,
But now I wonder if they were ever here.

And now the magic is gone.

Some people like to
break themselves
like I broke
this
sentence,
.
for their fantasy of
meeting someone
who will
fix
them.
.
But you won't need
fixing at all if
you don't
break
yourself.
.
Why do you need
your other half
if you are a
whole
yourself?
.
Broken is not beautiful
unless you are rules
or spaghetti.
Tape
yourself.
.
An d I'll b .e
her e tap

enc ,es.
.
Let a broken poem teach you how to not be broken.

They say focus on yourself
but whenever you will,
They will grab your head
And turn it around.
They may turn you back
And then stab you there.
And if you resist,
They'll grab your neck
And make it snap.
