not everything you think
belongs to you
is truly yours,
sometimes
your the only one
who thinks that way

here's to you love
for all stolen gaze
of your face
an endless maze

here's to you love
for all exasperated sighs
with longing eyes
of endless nights

here's to you love
for all our broken promises
of broken dreams
along the seams

here's to you love
here's to you
cause we cannot be
cause we never can be

when Zeus parted
human beings into two,
i could have sworn
i found my other half
in you

x

as 2018 came to a near conclusion
i thought it couldn't break my heart
more than it already does

boy, i was dead wrong

carry on.
despite how your heart is a shipwreck that sank every time.
still, carry on.

held your head high darling
for you are a queen
despite walking barefoot
without a crown

"You will find so much better", they say. That the fates have not allowed you to be with that soul, your paths have just crossed but not be wholly intertwine. He had come to your life and left, there must be a sole reason even if you do not know it yet. You are destined for someone greater, someone whose veins sing for your being and for your blood only. All celestial beings he came to knew before would soon be forgotten for you and only you would be his sun and moon. The thought is mesmerizing, unearthly even. To good to be true, but that is what the elders and the wise have promised you. And yet, amidst the promise of destiny and the thought that he was not made for you— you long for him still.
