I married a hurricane, and still get surprised when it rains.

Misery grows tired.
In these seemingly endless nights
We find a poor home for eternity
Caged upon our mattress
Damp from the night sweats

We wake now to a different sky
So make your bed
Take a breath
Be the sun and


Rise.
Get a job,
a husband or wife.
Make yourself comfortable
in your own life.
So they tell me
or would have told me
if they were still alive.
But they are dying slowly
by the magic pills.
They are no longer there
to protect and care.
I no longer have devils
that whisper and scream.
They can do both
but now they are doing non.
And I can see myself having fun,
not caring or staring
into nothingness.
Yet it leaves me in mourning
to know they are about to die.
Maybe if I hold on a little longer
I won't be lonely and then find myself
a job, husband or wife.
OCD
This disease struck me
Like a brick on pavement
Hard

Everything was
Perfect
Then that brick came along
And with the slightest movement
Destroyed everything

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
The voices say

Why can’t I let them go?
They keep repeating:

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
Why won’t they stop

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
I don’t understand

“Count it
Perfect it
Measure it
Clean it”
Someone just HELP me understand

This disease is about
Perfection
But it's the biggest
Imperfection about me

I think you loved me out of obligation
You needed a project, I needed salvation.

When roses grew between my lips and my place in your bed, you picked them and offered them to Someone else instead.

The one I love

The one I love is you

You are the center of my happiness
Thinking about you throws me
In the burning hell of joy
Being with you
Rolls me in unending
Flowing waters of positive emotions
You are the one I love

The one I love is you

You are the pivot of my pride
I love the greedy and jealous eyes
That feed on us with envy,  discomfort, uneasiness
Just because
The match made
Is the match that is real.
Just because
The match we make
Can never be dismantled
In fear of
Conforming  to the striking disaster
From our disaster striking love.
You are the one I love.

The one I love is you
And you are the one I love.

Never fall in love, be in love, because if you fall in love, you shall be broken but if you be in love,  everything will be amended and firm
your voice makes me feel so safe and i could talk to you for hours about anything and never get bored of hearing the sound of your voice. and your voice is the only one i want to hear for the rest of my life. so please don't leave.
