Lift you up,
hold me down.
Whatever happens,
please stay around.

Life is a chess game,
and I think I'm your pawn
I get the feeling that soon
you'll be gone.
I understand that there are sights to be seen,
but here stands the pawn that wants to be queen.

I thought you were a king, not a knight with no sword.
Now I stand as queen because I crossed the board.
Little did I know that's how you had planned it.
Now comes the suffrage of this queen's gambit.

I waited
for what felt like a day
in a glass room with skin-colored curtains
things going in, things coming out

He came in, panting hard
and kneeled beside the cold table where I sat
Face reddening in the cheeks
on the nose,
just like mine

When I told him,
two tears fell out of each his eyes
and I thought
I was made
of stone

He carried me through the wet April snow,
put us in a cab
and took me home

There was a bath running
and steam on the mirror

I got undressed for the third time that day
and sank
into the hot
white bubbles

He held my right knee
with his left hand
and told me
we weren’t going to school tomorrow

They come and go

so they say

the true ones are

the ones who stay

But I disagree

for we all are evolving

And true today

may not be tomorrows calling
I saw you the other day
With another guy
How quickly you've moved on
How quickly you said goodbye
Don't you ever go back in time
And remember those days
Days when we lived for each other
Days when we breathed each other's name
Days when distance didn't matter
Days when the bed was our favourite companion
Days when the constellations were our sheets
Days when our dreams were our guiding force
It's barely been a month..
..since you deserted me
And you seem to be totally unaffected
It's like you're having the time of your life
It hurts me to see you this way
I can't think of living a day without you
But now seeing you with somebody else
Makes me wish i'd never met you in the first place
When someone says something hurtful to you,demeans you,insults you or humiliates you....you will feel angry and hurt and undoubtedly you have every right to feel so...but at that moment tell yourself this-"i will never do this to any person, what this person just did to me."
It's a beautiful thing when two people are equally obsessed and infatuated with each other and don't care about anything else
Sometimes things get hard,
Life's less than perfect.
Life can leave you scarred,
But I know it's worth it.
I don't want to fall in love,
I wanna fly into it.
Because falling indicates helplessness,
But flying is graceful and gentle.
You can't fall in love forever,
Eventually you will crash.
But flying, you can find a nice calm perch,
And appreciate your love while you watch the world around you.
