Tea
I've spent centuries
in this agony
My body changes
but time stays still

All this time I've passed
waiting to be found
like a bird inside a cage,
my feet chained to this ground

I can't keep my monsters at bay
but I can't run away


In the eye of each soul
all I see is fear
and my own still whispers
"I'm not from here"

By now I thought
I'd have more power
But at the end of each day
"it" still devours

Even though there's love in my heart
I still feel like falling apart


Each fight feels like
dark mirrors inside a maze
and all I see in this reflection
is my own empty gaze

My mind is light years
away from this place
Still the only thing that saves me
is your warm embrace

And when it feels like I have no choice
I recognize your voice


I'm so tired of this fight
But your love still keeps me warm
Together, we'll win this battle
Together, we'll breathe through the storm.
I don't like history repeating itself
So I'm starting over
I just hope you'll be a part of my future

everybody flock to the hottest product
grab it, **** it, buy it, stock it
it's hypnotic, they got into our pockets
while at the top the profits rocket

some guy in a suit and tie
tries to decide what we might buy
a new idea for a new device
a shiny prize is yours for a price

everybody flock to the hottest product
grab it, **** it, buy it, stock it
it's hypnotic, they got into our pockets
while at the top the profits rocket

just like that
you jumped off the edge
crossing every red lines I drew
when I said I gave up on you

I saw you broke your own borders
cause you wanted to try harder;
you need to dive into my heart properly
so that I can see how much you love me

Thinking Out Loud
The
scariest
place to be
is on the
          edge...

                         the precipice
                             between
        keeping it together
                    and falling
                    into
          the abyss

Knowing
      that when you fall
you
    fall

I remain a ghost roaming the silent hallways of past and present mind
Humming and chanting tunes of the outdated variety
Lurking among the closet, tiptoeing through faded memories of what used to be
Peeking out the bedroom window reminiscing of childhood memories ever so haunting
I used to be alive once
Treaded the hills
Climbed tree's
I used to laugh from the heart and longed for love
Not so much
Anymore
I remain a ghost caged within my troubled mind engulfed in lies and pain casted by dark shadows
There is no escaping its undeniable hate fullness
My soul it wishes to entrapp so forever
I
Remain
A
Ghost

In a few days,
Months even,

Someday I'll forget you,
A** while it'll take,
Damn I miss you already.

You shattered my heart,
Broke it like a colliding star,

Afar this galaxy as I see a shooting star,
My eyes and my heart teary as well as scarred, feel vexation grow every passing hour,

Your ignorance kills me from the inside,
My pain and anger, it just doesn't matter at all,

For you I'm just another toy,
Use me, tell me you love me and then leave me,

This I know you will later on do,
Break me into a dozen pieces and make me feel worthless.

Poetic T
There tears coalesced and sorrow bent
Them unto the bed of leaves now fallen.
Like mourning moments frozen until the
Sun rose and the earth was watered on,
Slowly it stood tall again.

As time evaporated into dusk and
Mourning hew hung onto each emotion.
Again captured bending in captured
Breath, and once again it bent with the
Emotion frozen once again.
Shining garland with engraved golden bells .. Blue , red and silver packages wrapped with great care ..
Shimmering pine cones and toy drums , green  , white and yellow ornaments , glowing stars and tinsel accouterments ...

A white snowy blanket at her base , round and square presents with beautiful bows and delicate lace ..
Persimmons and oranges , a bowl of assorted nuts , hot apple cider , candy canes and egg nog ...

Christmas music and shimmering lights , the sound of mourning doves outside our window on this special night ....
A glowing testament to love stands tall
May the joy of the holiday season follow you all year long !!

damsel in distress
Love is painful they say.
It is all about hurt, miseries, and hatred.
But believe me when I say it's not.
Because what brings you pain is saying goodbye to the person you love.
To be alone when you used to be on on each others arms.
That is what really brings you sadness.
And love is the only cure.
Spread the love this season.

damsel in distress
People who would go near me would surely get hurt
That's why I should isolate myself in a desert
Just like how much water a cactus can hold
The same amount of tears are waiting to be poured
Cause I feel like I'm a cactus.

Winds blistering infinite cold
Fills the hole
In
My
Heart
The fierce scolding winds
Coagulate
The
Missing
Pieces
The truth is,
Nobody wants to be alone.
The reality is,
There are people who deserve to be.
