remember the feeling of falling,
before you enter the land of dreams?
i felt that in your presence,
not knowing what the future deems.

felt when I looked into your eyes,
and once our fingers intertwined.
we face an uncertain tomorrow,
with both our hearts aligned.

but no one can ever be prepared
to face dark, rainy nights,
when you've gotten used to sunny days,
and nights under bright city lights.

opened my eyes, realizing the fall.
head throbbing, but I'm awake.
was it a dream? a nightmare?
why does my chest still ache?

the line blurs between real and fake,
a memory, or a soul’s mistake?

;
I have weathered countless storms
And will continue to do so.
Why should I be scared of a flood,
When I can control the flow?

The stars may not align,
The universe may not be on my side.
But I won't be put out without a fight,
I have nowhere else left to hide,
I am here for the wild, wild ride!
Lots of wins and losses lately. No matter the failures, I will always persist and persevere. Watch me, universe.

At cross roads once again
No idea where to go
Lost in space, drowning at sea
But, whatever flows flows

The mighty winds
Used to carry me well.
Now like a leaf from above,
I struggled and fell.

Second star to the right?
But there isn't one star in the sky.
Will I ever find my way back?
There's no other choice but to fly.
Having a hard time finding out who and what I am in life. Things used to be easy but it's just so chaotic right now.

we were both like the moon -
casting light during the darkest nights.
but despite the potential we possess,
we are unable to reach the greatest heights.

staying still,
holding our ground.
just patiently waiting -
to finally be found,
and to go where we are bound.

one and the same.
but that's just where it ends.
we can never surpass
being just two good friends.

The largest stars could never amount
To the sparks I see in your eyes.
Pieces of you will forever be within me,
even until the last heavenly body dies.

The two of us next to the cosmos are nothing,
Nothing but helpless specks of dust.
But I am, to you, as constant as the air you breathe,
Even if the world stops being fair and just.
Happy valentine’s!

Mind exploded, heart broken,
Thinking of the things that could’ve been.
Words unspoken, melodies unsung,
And views left unseen.

A song paused just before the chorus,
A film that never reached its ******.
Our story’s like a traveler in a forest,
Who forever lost its tracks.

From hours on end I thought of you
What could be going on inside your mind?
I am here, in darkness, pondering
How I am scared to get left behind.

Should I tell you the truth?
Not sure if it’s a risk I wanna take.
To lose you or to be with you?
Now it’s a matter of make or break.
