Want to kiss someone.
Afterwards, we could look up at the stars,
Picture anything else but reality.

Realistically,
I am sitting in my bedroom,
Watching others take advantage of my dreams.

I’ve been using my lip chap,
In hopes it would pay off when she and I touch lips,
For the very first time.

I just want someone to kiss,
Someone to look up at the stars,
Picture anything but reality.

At the words on the page,
As my eyelids droop.

I learn
About their adventures,
And their hopes.

I smile
Because it’s the only thing,
Keeping me from engulfing myself
Into the black pitter-patter of the rain.

You planted your red rose in my heart
    and I was in love with you. It's all that
    matters. We bleed all over everything
    from thorns but being in love saves us.

The monster under my bed
was safer than the one who made me.

As I looked out of the window,
I saw the full moon making a pass at me,
The romantic soul,
I felt lighter,
Let me weigh myself,
I was 5kg lighter,
Was it the effect of the full moon?
