the letters of your name
tumble out of my lips
leaving me breathless
you never seem to leave
my imagination alone
we sail from shore to shore
from the islands to open blue seas
fulfilling my divinity
roses grow from the
garden endlessly living in
peace and tranquility
falling from distant constellations
leaving nothing but
memories to drift off to.
at least in this chimera
i dreamed as if it were love
at least i believed in
the power our "love" had
but i knew that it
wouldn't even last anyways

but the reality of it is that
you were never good for me
and i was never good for you
now i stand here alone
not knowing what to do
with a candlelight just for you
staring at the fire while
watching the illusions burn out

distressed and distraught
regretting the feelings i caught
while still believing it was real
as if it were love.

you were the one
with broken feathers
dashing along with the sea
falling purposely
coasting among the
warm winds exposed
by the shades dipped in gold
hiding behind everything
that glows
abiding by the forgotten memory that flows.

we tend to lose control
of what was once lost
rekindling the passion
that was never caught
we end up getting drawn in
that we forget
what we once were
every part and every
trace we leave behind
ends up becoming nonexistent
and floating off with the
flowers in the sea.

hopefully when i call
the constellations will appear
tears hang like crystals
from yesteryear
the vapors sail out from a distance
yet leave my soul feeling very cold
underneath the moonlight
deeper than the sky above
hoping that when you come
I will call again.

stuck in a paradox
a paradox of lies
as the rivers stream
through the shallow creek
trying not to think
while dwelling on my thoughts
for a second
purposely anxious
sadness stands by my side
the shadows remain
dim and hallow
it is pain that I have to swallow

one day my heart fell
across the ocean
then it washed away
and became one with the sea
while the birds flew
and joined each other in harmony
my mind got lost there
like the clouds underneath
the ribbons of my feet
they just disappeared
i can't seem to find it
but at least i'm still here.
