Love.
It introduced itself
Its personality was charming
Its character was fun and great
Overall it was sweet

They fell for it

It was fake
It was an imposter
The real one went everywhere with
its brother Commitment
and its sister Loyalty

In the end
They fell with it
It only needed a partner in crime
The reason people fall apart once they've fall in love. It was never real coz commitment and loyalty was not there from the get go

She said "I'm falling in love."

I said "I'm falling apart."
What's the difference?

It treated me with extreme cruelty
I tried to run away from it
but I kept coming back for it
because Death wasn't ready to welcome me

I was not supposed to die like that...
It was all the failed suicide attempts

That's why I'm still here...
It made me realise that life still have a lot to show me and there's still more for me to live for

Growing up you're always taught the dangers of substance abuse

but no one warns you of experimenting with love

I'm tired of everything
mostly of sleepless nights
and distressful days

Can I go somewhere quiet?
"My mind."I thought

I thought it was a quiet place
coz I stopped thinking of pain and sorrow
The pain and sorrow I thought I conquered,
I did not

There were still lot of hurting questions unanswered
which became molecules colliding in my mind.
There was no quietness there.

Where can I go?
"No where."I remembered

My mind was destroyed
by a broken heart
and a troubled soul
so there was no place at peace that I could go to.

I can not do this anymore

Can I just die?
she needs his logical sense
to be able to make her feet stay on the ground
he needs her emotional side
to be able to see the world, without being scared

Sad
i said i am okay
but my heart was crying river of tears

i lied
and forgot my eyes already told the truth
Very broken in a way which I no longer know how to feel. Am feeling sad and that's not the way I want to feel but the joy present can't shine through the dark clouds of sadness
