The lady in red cried the other night
Didn’t want to be this way but wiped her cheeks dry
Told herself, “Tonight is the night I’d shine bright,
Like the stars and the pale moonlight.”

Put on the outfit that would rather leave her bear
Pull off a good show for all the men out there
Tonight is the night she’d shine
Brighter than the stars and the pale moonlight

The lady in red danced with the clouds
Higher she went as the music shook the ground
Tonight was the night she shined above the rest
As he touched her and said, “Darling, you’re the best.”

I loved you just as much
As I love to gaze under the stars
and turn them into my own
private constellations

I loved you just as much
As I adore books,
their every page
turning me into what
I want to be

I loved you just as much
As I enjoy the sun on my cheek
As if the burning sensation
made me feel alive

I loved you just as I love
to make words mean more
than what they seem

I loved you.

I’ve been wasting my time
calling out your name
calling this a silly game
we’ve been playing

I’ve been wasting my time
tracing the path we’ve once been in
letting go of this feeling
sounds harder than it seems

Tell me where do i go from here?
from the place I’ve called home
from the place I’ve always known
from the heart I once belonged

I’ve been wasting my time
pacing back and forth
loving you then letting go

but the hardest feeling
is not knowing how to feel
forget the lies you once believed in
I loved you, to the moon and back
and back is where I’m at
I’m letting go

You are the dream I am currently weaving on my mind,
like the finest cloth that would
keep me warm on a rainy day.
You’d give me something that would make
my cheeks turn the brightest of red;
lovely poems that could last for eternity,
rather than flowers that promise love for
infinite years, but wither in time.
We would both lie down under the twinkling stars
and refrain from stretching out our hands before them,
because finally, the stars heard us, heard me;
because they know how I’ve been wishing for you
and how I’ve been longing for you;
right now, all I could think of is how real you would become
and how right you would be for me
and how in time, you could save me
after all the things I’ve done;
after time keeps doing itself justice;
after the world has made me love a little less;
after I've wished to never love again

He stained my skin with his darkest dream--
I remember it well; how he whispered forever to my ears,
How we shared a piece of heaven in this hell we live in.

I remember it well; how I danced into the room
wearing the sweet smell of his perfume;
he’d tell me his darkest dream
and whisper the words he once used;
making it sound less than it seems

And again I’d let him kiss my skin;
just to stain it once more.

The hardest part about living
is knowing that you have to be

cut, bruised,
stabbed, and broken a
million times more
just to be reminded

that you’re alive

I love the idea of endings,
of death, of rain,
and destruction—
not because I’ve
drowned into
complete solitude
and hopelessness;
but because I see
the world clearly
beyond its lies
