Before, you speak.
Research, what you are talking about?

Before, you spread any rumor.
Be sure of what you speak?

Most misinformation comes from sources with a lit bit of knowledge.
Which leaves others seeking truth.

We see it daily.
We just needs to know, who we refuses to acknowledge truth too?

Or next you'll be apart of the rumor mill.

I have learned
Disturbingly
To settle into fear, like an old house settles on its foundation
Sinking by the year.
It used to rise me-
It used to pick me up and batter me
Like the surf batters stones on the ocean floor
Tossing them and beating them upon the rocks.
Now, like an anchor or a shipwreck I...
Settle.
I stay, hard and heavy and dark
Pinned in place and dully aware
Dully waiting--
For a storm to send down debris,
Or the sun to lance through the waves and touch my cold face.
I settle.
I am here, in fear,
I am here
And I am tired
And I refuse to use my strength to struggle in my nets.
Instead, I sleep. I wait. I
Settle.

It Fade Away

As the clock's hands move, your love is becoming blur. It's like an ink that's fading in a wet paper. Like the sun that hides behind those dark clouds every time it will rain. I was frightened because of that scene! I panicked and tried to prevent it from losing but there's no other way. I screamed to the top of my lungs begging for it to come back, but it didn't.

Sunlight kisses
Petals bleeding hue
These are my thoughts
I can never be without you
My train keeps on rolling
But it has no definite track
There's no destination that I ever knew of
With the parts it lacks
It's not safe to board
It's not safe to move an inch, for fear of it breaking down
It's okay to laugh
I'm a sad clown
I can take the pain
I've had it all my life
I just have to stay sane
And try not to lash out from strife
Maybe baby
I'll sing a lyric
Maybe baby
I'll sing you to sleep
Is there anything else you want
Is there anything else you need
Just tell me
Whisper it heavily and sweetly
You can take me
You can tame me
Believe me, I'll enjoy it ever so slowly
You can take every inch of my body between your teeth
You can invade every aspect of my mind
You can steal my heart when the door is open
You can devour every part of me
I really want you to
Perceive it as you will.

Today you talked to me,
I know you left me for her
But I can't help but feel as though I miss you.

Today you stared at me,
Just like how you used to,
Starring into my eyes, you make me feel like it's just you & me

Today you told me you missed me,
That you still love me,
But it was best for us to stay friends

Today you held me once again,
Only this time
The hug was longer, tighter, sweeter

Today you flirted with her
Right in front of me
Told me "she might be the one"

Tonight,
I sleep...I need to get you off my mind,
Maybe I'll finally move on

Now I realize
That all of these memories,
Are just a lot of yesturdays

Sometimes I think what I say isn't what I mean
But I don't know the difference
I've got such a messy head
And I'm too worried about how to clean it best
I spend hours plotting how I'll find the motivation to move
But there's always a disruption once I get my groove
I say I want my freedom but I don't know what that means
Is it really freedom if you don't even know how to be
And I act like I'm too good for anyone and that they all sicken me
But the truth to that is that without them I wouldn't want to breathe

fit well?
          you ask me, too many times
          if it were up to me
    i'd slip it off myself
          and we can skip the movie
