took a while to reset
trying to undo what's done
but there's nothing in between
the same shadow
lingering, bickering, monotonously
fists held high
words turned sore
hearts became stones
nothing can be undo
but still
incomparable
you are par excellence

I swam across 7 billion people
To find connection
But still
To no avail

Drowning in a sea of motions
Sent up flares
The clouds and its auxiliaries
Oh I am still lonely

It rains
It pours
And loneliness flows in the river
To its abode in abyssal plains

Tell me now
Where can I get connection
As people began to tire
I put my foot on the floor

Switching lanes
Searching connection
But still
To no avail

The universe seems to halt, a brief pause, mesmerized by a presence. How can a metaphor, brought 2 humans together, like a couplet, they rhyme in harmony. A euphony, every words spoken, every conversation engaged, every glance taken, sparked a pleasing unison. You speak anapestic and I am allured by your french charms. Oh, I am having writer's block, your next stanza is a blank verse.

Everything was in turmoil as you toiled a little too harsh
What if the silhouette could speak that reality is made of flesh and bones
Ethereal seems not real when you could hear the footsteps of gravity
And you recoiled from fantasy instantly
Oh honey, close your eyes to old ends
Let your heart win to new beginnings
Shake up illusions and breath in noble truth
Because attitude creates reality

a loaded ship
full of hope
in quest for serenity
what may seem infinity
might not be possible

a heart so noble
yet fragile
your words, so agile
yet impulsive
your false alarm, so corrosive

the ship has broken
hopes sunk
whispers of sorrow awaken
as she wonders in blue funk

Don't go to sleep with tears staining your pillow
Don't go to sleep with misery and self infliction, wrapped
around you
Don't let frustration and sadness,
pulls you to sleep
Don't let bad dreams indulge in,
your fear of losing

Let go
Break free
Let your heart heal
You sacrificed your heart and soul
For it to end up being shattered

You are worth more than a dime a dozen
You are given the greatest gift of life
And they are just despicable

But you neglected the number one rule of kindness
You expected something in return

Let go
Break free
Let your heart heal
You sacrificed your heart and soul
For it to end up being shattered

Just a little something from me
For someone like you
Just a little something from me
For you to reminisce somewhere later
Just a little something from me
Juices and excerpts from a comrade

Gather them breathes
As your nerves perplexes
The next roller coaster ride engages

How time flashes me back to your presence
How those days came as an essence
A seamless accident?
A slick coincidence?
None would matter
As if it had rained pitter patter

Bless the broken and fragile
Bless those little cracks
You outgrew those cracks and crevices
You were made of paper hearts, creased with mistakes

But no one told you
You're an illuminating silhouette against the sunrise
You blind the world with thousands of twinkles under your skin
And let me tell you this
There were days when life were vain
There were days when the skies were greyer
But listen to your voice
There were also days where birds were chirping everywhere
Get lost in your thoughts, in a blanket of stars

Plant that whimsical reverie of yours
Even when others had plucked it out
Water it, watch it grow
And live
There's nothing you can't do if you put your mind and effort in it!
Made in the A.M. for A.M.
