a family tree, started with two, had children of three.
Reputation: a word filled with expectations
lies, corruption, enemies and oppression.
A soul so empty, I wonder why.
Chaos and tension fills the air, why are you so afraid to admit to your mistakes, is it too hard to try?
‘trapped’ inside my own made up thoughts and desires.
I run, never looking back, one word now fills my mind: ‘free’.
A family tree, started with two, no longer three.
( things i guiltily think about)

Do not try to remember the tales of how we met or ended
I was there when the fiery passion of our broken souls burned the city to ashes
you will always try to find your way back to me, in old dusty books,
in the signs on the street, in our songs that seem so lost to me now.
You were like a mirage in disguise, alarmingly enlightening.
I am spirling in a maze, a labyrinth, I'm getting dizzy going round and round through the same old thing.
I remain still not wanting to remember the feeling, of being with you

i offered you everything while torturing myself,
we used to watch the birds through our tiny window when i was little,
your presence fades whenever you get closer to me,
an empty space between us becomes more apparent,
the destruction is starting to become a part of me that i cannot defy,
the more i grow up, the more i ask myself why,
why do i put up with this?
i mourn in solitude, filled with regrets,
your misjudgment, you never seem to apologize even when you’re at fault,
i came to the conclusion that i never want to be like you,
so thank you, I hope you feel the triumphant loss.

the words you told me are engraved in my heart,
maybe it was your preconceived impeccable bonds,
accompanying me in my dreams
a soul neither euphoric nor wretched,
wishing for an eternity with just yourself
up awake at night, not wanting to sleep,
because i know once i close my eyes
i will meet you once again.

the longing of being free and with you
under the bright pearl moon,
i dreamt of the idea of being with you
before everything descended to chaos,
too many nights spent paralyzed
thinking of what could’ve been,
we painted our infinite future,
with colors that don’t exist.

memories are the last thing i have of you,
i wonder if you remember anything at all,
i yearn for remedies, to be forgotten at all
i was perplexed by everything you do
i remain captivated by the slightest signs of your signals,
insecurity over-washes me, i can’t comprehend the symbols
then i realized, i’m searching for signs that don’t exist
in the midst of the night, the aftermath remains a bliss.

a mesmerizing soul
a painful fascination
counting the days that go by,
for a heart that can’t be healed.
An intricate feeling i can’t fathom,
one day, when you unravel all my secrets
and it is all over, here is what you’ll do:
relentlessly cut me out,
but you will protect my secrets
by releasing it, in a desolate landscape,
maybe it will make me feel again,
and you won’t have to hold onto it any longer.
