The beautiful sky endures the rain
The stars above continues to faint.

Fragile hearts were torn apart,
But at least
None of us lost
Our precious shards.

Darkness dwells, emptiness fills,
Losing like hell, missing your kiss.

We were made to climb the mountains
Instead we run around the fountains.

Love was strong this time of night,
Without you here, I'm in fright.

It was night and it was cold
But all I remembered was the touch of your hands
Warmth of your embrace
The sounds of the nature
The kisses on your neck
Our lust and your love.

It was night and I was cold
But you were there
Our warmth
Our love
Our lust
Your body against mine

But then
You stopped
And stared at the window
I kissed you
And your kiss
Was never the same anymore.

i need that paroxysm
that little jolt
that single spark
for me to feel again.

i hate to admit
i would sound
desperate
and needy
but i need someone.

i don't want just anyone.

but i don't know
i really need one.
desperate. needy. stupid.

the ones should be worried about
are not in the present
seducing with their devilish smiles
and their soft, husky voices

the ones leaving their footsteps
in the sands of barren past
unreachable, devoid of closure
are the most dangerous of them all.

it's not the sweet laugh you hear
caressing your lips and your ears
that will hunt and drown you
it's the laugh of yesterday's loss
that will haunt, forevermore.
a loss is a loss, and if it haunts you, it haunts you.

Have you ever thought
That we might die at this exact moment?

What did it made you feel?
Afraid?
Relieved?
Sad?
Happy?

Let me tell you what I'd feel

Nothing.
Death, pain
Sadness, anxiety
We will all get desensitized.

If you commit suicide
Will your pain really end?
Or it would just hurt you again, and again
Because nothing could stop it anymore
Not even death
Because you're already dead
At that moment?

We will one day
Die unknowingly.
And be forgotten.

Is it the oblivion that scares you?
Is it the pain of death that got you chills in your spine?
What is it now?
Is it still death?
What is death?
Do you think that death are only defined
Of a death angel ripping off the life force out of you?

Let me clear something out for you
Put death into perspective.
Put everything in your life
Into perspective.
You'll see
That life
Has a lot of other things to offer.
No matter how life kicks you down, you gotta get back up.
Suicide is not the solution.

they told me that
i am a pessimist
that i should wear
my positive hat
and not think of malice.

i am very sure that
every pessimist
were once an optimist.


they went through
things that made them
lose hope
and lose their courage
to bravely trust and believe
again.

from the tiniest bit of betrayal
to the biggest act of treason.

i believe no one is born a pessimist.
they were all once, optimists.

hope may be a superficial belief
but it's not as fake as you think it is.
from my opinion, pessimists are scared to hope too high again. including me.

melodies in my lullaby
broken guitars and abandoned violins
in the forest we go.

you said, stand by
we're proud sinner
we're not saints, but we thought so.

the birds fly
the sky's clearer from here
on my shoulders you lean
and the rivers continue to flow.

we laughed until we cry
we promise forever
through thick and thin
through darkness and sorrow.

but life disagreed
and kept us apart
separated we are

As the clouds move
I thought to myself.

You're definitely the queen of the clouds.
You move
Swiftly
Full of grace.

As I watched
The clouds move
I thought to myself again.
You're as pure
As the whiteness of the clouds
Innocent.

I wish
I am the blue sky
So I could be with you
Until whenever.
Inspired while I was watching the clouds move and the album by Tove Lo .

I need answers
Right at this moment
I love you
And I would leave anything
Or everything behind
For you.

Dear, I know

Couldn't you just answer one?

I wanna know
If I'm falling
And you would be there
To catch me?
Time and distance can never tear my feelings for you.

Empty he felt
Deep down his heart
He tried to fill it
But he always
Failed miserably.

And then came this girl
Or more accurately
A goddess
She came and smiled
And the boy's heart was
Very full and whole.

He was very happy
And oh yes
The word 'was'
Is actually true
He was happy.

As everyone expected
The girl left him
And he stood there
Wondering in his own
Continuous nightmares
Asking why
And how
Everything was wrong again?
This poem is the first that I tagged #recalled as I found my old poem book that I lost before.

And the girl's name was really a goddess'.
Her name is Athena.

I still think her name is the most beautiful name I've ever heard, don't you guys agree?

Life is hard
But hey, we got each other.

Love is bitter
But hey, it's worth it.

Thoughts are sweet
But hey, too much sweet is harmful.

Friends are like
Distant stars
But hey, they always watch for us
Even from far away.

Whatever you're going through
Just remember.
You're you.
We are gonna get through this life. Flawlessly. I love you guys **

Did I ever lived before I was born
I'm 17 now
And I never had any girlfriend
But I felt like I had one.

Do you ever feel it sometimes
To hold, and to touch
To be held, and to be touched
By someone you love
Or someone you want
Or someone I loved
Or someone I wanted?

I don't know
If it's my memories
Messing up my imagination
Or my lust
Messing up my brain
Or did I really
Lived and loved before?
I never believed in such things. But sometimes it feels like it's real.

"Who are you to talk about love?"

Yeah, you may be right.
I'm 17
I don't know anything about love.

I'm just a kid
All I have to do now is study
Study, study, study and study.
I shouldn't let
Anyone hurt me
Like she did.

But yeah
Love taught this kid
That loyalty
Trust
And jealousy
Are all beautiful
In the way they are.

To be hurt by love
Means to not hurt anyone else
Using love.

So yeah
Who am I to talk about love anyway?

Your silence used to be warm
Used to be lovely.

Your silence used to be close
Enduring
Yet addicting.

Your silence was something
That makes me smile
Because when you were silent
You will smile
And your smile
Are indeed
One in a million.

But now
Your silence is distant
Threatening everything
Even me
From closing in.

Your silence
It pushes me away
And whenever I look in your eyes these days
I can see
The old you
Has gone
Along with your enticing silence.
Triggered myself with this poem.

I love you.
It was supposed to be that simple.
I miss you.
It was supposed to be that ******* simple.
I need you.
And it was supposed to be that ******* simple.

But do you love me?
Do you miss me?
Do you even need me?

Some voices whisper me in my ears
That you don't love me
You don't miss me
And you don't want me
And you seem to agree with the voices

And then these 3 simple words
Are the hardest for me
To be said.
I miss you.

i tend to leave, too.

it was 3 a.m. and i'm gazing into the open sky
into the darkness that lies ahead.

it was black , obviously (or was it grey?)
it was black but it wasn't evil or anywhere near it.

i was happy
because it was only me and the open sky
the fresh night air
and the stars, never to forget the lovely moon.

the scene changed

i was drowning in the open sea
nobody knew i was out here
i took this risk alone
and i know i might die of hypothermia here.

it was 3 a.m. and there's this
roller-coaster of emotions i felt
this vigorous scenes changing
and constantly fading.

it took me 6 hours later
to realize that the stars i was staring at
actually they were your eyes.

and the ocean i'm drowning in
was your cold, stiff embrace.

it's stupid to feel sad
especially over things that don't matter

but it is more stupid to feel sad
over things that has ended

it's stupid to miss someone
who already left you

and it's stupid to hurt yourself
with the melancholy of it

the sadness within being fed
with its delicious meal;
your soul.

why do we choose to be sad
when we can entirely ignore?

we all need sadness
don't deny it.
it is a drug
unmentioned by anyone
but needed by everyone.

you can say
you want to be happy all the time
but i can see it in your eyes, dear.

you're longing for that
medium-sized sadness
and contentment included in it.

you're stupid
and you need sadness.

try to deny me.

separated from you

She is an artist.
Perfectionist.
Enticing and lovely.

She would sit
In front of
The canvas
And paint for hours
And I would hug her from behind
And give her a kiss.

She is an artist
Painting the sky blue
Full of hues.
She would sit
In front of me
Staring into my eyes
And we'd stare into
Each other's eyes
For like what, hours?

And we would lie
Under the stars
When she would cutely gasp
Out of joy
Whenever an idea crossed
Her beautiful mind
And she would paint
The canvas
With all of her heart
Poured into it.

She is an artist
Painting my heart
With colors
I can see
Every time her sweet smile
Flashed in my eyes.

x

She is an artist
She once told me
About the stars
And how beautiful they are
When they collide
Well, I did ask her
'How did you know all this?'

She simply wrapped her hands around my shoulder
And replied
'I know because I'm looking at one.'

it's been awhile
since i wrote anything
for anyone
even for myself.

the day before yesterday
i decided that
i can no longer live
alongside this
cold river of silence

i crossed it.

fingers crossed
legs trembling
head's spinning
hands shaking
right into your
cold embrace.

and i realized that the sun
will never shine on me again
ever.

half of my heart
whispers
agreeing with
your very words
that i deserve everything

this chill
down my spine
this pain
all over my body
and this heaviness
upon my crooked heart.

i replayed your words
in my palace
letter by letter.

each second passes by
and not a single one
pass by
without reminding me
that i might never
get across
this river.

yesterday
i woke up as if
nothing had happened
like the day before yesterday
i never drowned
and got lost in the currents

x

today
i am pretty **** sure
the river got me good

the stones below my feet
laughed at my tears
these water running
chuckled at my regret
these trees
turned away
hoping that this man
would drown faster

it was made sure
by nature
and by Fate herself

no sunrise
nor drought
can get me through
this time.
i don't know.

i just hope things get better soon.

or at least that's what i tell myself to avoid the pain.

Do you know why
Emptiness hurts the most?

It's because it never hurt you.

You feel nothing
And deep down inside
You know you wanna love
And be loved to infinity.

Why do I mention infinity
All of the sudden?
In maths, infinity equals zero.
Zero, or in other words empty.

You'll keep asking yourself
Of this neverending emptiness.
Infinite emptiness.

You know, once a glass
Is decided to hold infinity
Nothing can fill it up.
That's what happens to someone
Who decided on feeling empty
Subconsciously or consciously.

You may have someone
To love you afterwards
But it won't ever feel enough.

At some point
You'll stare into the wall
And wonder why
The glass won't fill itself.

There's a cure for sadness.
There's a cure for loneliness.

But there's no way you can cure
Emptiness.

so in love with the moon
when it actually just reflected

because they shine a little bit

Really, really, really wants you.

But to choose you,

While I was waiting for the train
To arrive
I realized why I don't feel mad or irritated
Waiting for it.
I don't have to think about the pause
The interval.
I could distract myself with gadgets, my imaginations and stuff.

I can think
About everything else
Except about the cessation and my patience.

Truly, your patience is really tested deeply
Only when you're thinking about how patient you have been before.

You'll feel obliged at yourself and you'll start to think
About how patient you've been and trust me
That's when you need to be careful with your mind.
That's the critical point.
That's the time your patience is really tested to its limits.

//

But my case is different with you.
I've waited for a long time
And after a certain point
I would overthink.

I would think of how long I've been waiting
And about how will I have to wait.

That's where it gets me
That's where my mind gets me, really.

Waiting for you
My mind cannot be distracted.

It's inevitable - both waiting and thinking about you
They come in one package; inseparable.

//

That's why to wait for someone hurts.
The thing is, you know the train would come, eventually.

It won't ever feel the same as waiting for a train
It would cut and hurt you deeper than any suffering
You'll ever have to bear.
Waiting for someone hurts. Let's hope for the best :)

A white dress
Floating across the nightly forest
Her half-closed eyes
Hollowly gazing through the trees
Into the distance.

The moon was reflecting
Her beautiful yet enticing physique

Her lips were chanting
Something unclear.

As she flew
Wandering the nightly forest
The sky chose to cry
And she hummed the azure to sleep
Her voice, melancholic
And perplexing.

A ghastly mist
Took place*
As the dawn rise
And the enigmatic white dress
*Vanishes from sight.

There was a boy.

He was happy
With himself
Until the thief came.

The thief stole nothing
From the boy
As he doesn't have anything
But his heart.

But the thief
Wanted something for herself
So she decided
His heart will be her fortune.

And so
The thief tries to steal it
She tried and tried
Looking for it
Everywhere she can ever imagine
But she never could.

And decided to ask the boy
