"No matter what happens, we'll never be strangers."

Days like this i wonder how you're doing.
Surely we could send each other a text,
but it becomes archaic.

You and I.
We used to talk under the stars.
Laughing till our faces turn blue.

I kept all your gifts.
A polaroid of us.
Memories.
Buried in a box.
Safe,like how you used to make me feel.

5 years ago,
You came up to me.
Like a dream.
The kind that always leaves.

5 years later,
You left me broken.
Like a record.

I watched you grow.
Like a lotus flower that grows out of the mud.
Slowly blossoms and rise above the muddy surface.

Now.
Im left with only memories of us.
Stored away in the back of my mind.

So nights like this.
When i need you most.
I reminisce all the good memories we had.
With tired eyes, tired mind, tired soul.

Just so you know.
If ever,in future you need me.
You don't have to call me.
Or drop a text.

Just run to me.
Like a kid running to the finishing line.
With arms wide open.
I welcome you.

I seem to be collecting hearts...

Some gained unintentionally,
But I worked hard for most,
A few are a bit warn now,
And I broke some too,

If I have yours and you'd like it back,
Just let me know, although,
There's no guarantee, as,
It may be yours that I'm currently using,

I don't mean to keep it from you,
But my heart was taken long ago,
I'm just trying to find one that fits,
So I can be happy again soon.

The water
is deep,

do not
drown.

Take me now, I am yours forever
I'll be your light, your perfect saver
Don't be afraid, I will hold you, dear
Take me, hold me if you really care.

Take me now, my whole life can be yours
I will go with you, that's my real course
Use me, feel me, I don't need a choice
Your fall, my fall, we shan't make it worse.

Take me now, I am yours forever
Just hold me tight, with strength and power
I don't want to live without you here
Wherever you are, just take me there.

I'll be the wind beneath you, my dear
Against all odds, I'll be there, I swear
Take me now, I am yours forever
Wherever you are, just take me there...

I thought I can handle every word you say
Because we give and take those three words too lightly.
Never thought of being dismayed
Of you, saying those words too frankly.

I'm starting to be afraid of you.
Those words echoed in my mind.
Overpowering your I love yous
That used to ring in my ears every time.

A random time to be lonely
Caused a scarring depression.
Never thought that love
Can quickly turn to fear.

*Or was it love in the first place?
