Downcast faces running from the cold regret,
Empty spaces, something that I can't forget,
All I wanted was to wash the past away,
But time, the cruelest ruler that we all obey.

Chased my shadows, broke my bones,
and twisted my sins.
And I'm mental, a wreck in general,
Feeding violent whims.

But now I dream, so goodbye.
Sing your songs for a while
So I dream of goodbye
No more tears,
I did try.

The Loser

What a loser he/she must be,
Finding a new purpose in life,
Breaking borders, killing strife,
Trying things they never tried.

It is then that I see,
That not a loser they must be,
For no longer they're part of me,
The loser is indeed me.

Twinkle

Love me for who i am

Love me for who I am
Love me for who I can be
Love me for what your
love can make me.

Love me not for who I was
For the past is gone
Regaled to the memories of yesterday.

But love me for tomorrow
The promise of which is your love.
For love alone can make me
Elevate me with your loving

Rain on me, dry as a bone
Starved of comfort
Eyes set on the road ahead
Fading soul calls out
Any hope is a straw to hang on to
For the hopeless a mirage
To survive and sustain
Long before the shadows dim

Parched soul, fill the ache
Return with your love
Magnificent and transcendent
The desert blooms
An oasis in the midst of misery

Life is what you make of it
And I want to make mine scenic
Paint the hues of love
Amethyst and Amber
Garnet and topaz
Like the rising dawn
The beauty of which brings hope
On the horizon of my yearning soul.

Waiting

Those simple conversations
They ended without any reply
But I’m still waiting
Waiting for it to come back to life.

Those simple thoughts
They ended without turning into reality
But I’m still waiting
Waiting for it to bloom.

Those songs that I heard
Ended without a melody
But I’m still waiting
Waiting for it to play again.

And this love that I have for you
I won’t let it end
Because I’m still waiting .

I am Broken.

You made me smile
You made me laugh
You made me blush
You made me forget all my problems
You made me feel better about myself
You're the reason why I'm happy

         but, little did I know,
  that the reason for my happiness
                  could also be the reason for why

   **I am broken

crying inside

My mind is spinning,
I'm so depressed and weak,
I want to say why,
But I cant even speak.

Tired of fighting,
Not wanting to give up,
I want to be strong,
But I'm not that tough.

NONE

None was the word
that had me breaking down,
Tears trying to leave my eyes.
One simple question.

How could this question
Be back to haunt me again,
It replayed over and over in my head
Torturing my brain.

It was a simple question
Not even directed to me,
It was rhetorical, but even so
It made me think.

"How many people know who you really are? "
The question had me tremble
Because my answer was
"None..."
