there was a funeral in my bedroom
wilted petals of once vibrant chrysanthemums have been scattered on my mattress
these tired springs of this grave i call a bed,
give in to the slightest weight
a bouquet of delicate daffodils and lilies fall
apart as they hit the surface of my skin
the detached petals embrace me like
these quilts
the headboard became a blank tombstone,
resembling these empty eyes
O, death
take me into your warm arms that feel like the home i've been deprived of
starved of love i've been ‘til you appeared upon me
O, my dearest death,
i fell in love with your touch
i've craved your presence
surrounded by these withered carnations and daisies,
i’ve realized that the funeral held in my bedroom
was for me
im a void of emotions

I saw you, you were getting so weak
I watched you struggle
You tried so hard to hide your pain
But I could see how hollow and cold your eyes were
You were no longer the person I knew
You were no longer alive
You could no longer remember who I was
You could no longer remember who you once were
It’s no mystery to me what is going to happen to you
It’s no use to say “goodbye”
You’re not here to say goodbye to
There’s nothing left of you but a mere memory,
That will soon fade away into oblivion
You were nothing, just like me.
rest in paradise

I want your lips on mine,
whilst your arms are wrapped around me holding my body close to yours, as I have my arms around your shoulders
running my fingers through your hair
When our lips break apart, we both gasp for air,
but it seems when our eyes are closed and our lips are pressed against one another's,
oxygen is unnecessary and time does not exist
