The clock is ticking.
It’s ticking.
And what are you doing?
You are doing nothing.
But guess what
The clock is still ticking.
You can’t freeze time by simply not moving.
You can’t freeze time by doing absolutely nothing.
So how about you get your lazy *** up
And move!
Live!
Do something!
Time isn’t waiting for anybody.
*You are not an exception.

They told me the tale of a fairytale place
Filled with a beauty I had yet to face
The most harmonic tunes one would ever hear
And as many butterflies you’d like, my dear
Everything tasted better than your favorite ice cream
A more wonderful place than one could ever dare dream
I climbed up the ladder into the sky above
On my quest to find some infinite love

The clouds, they darkened, I let out a scream
Oh no I thought, it’s not what it seem
The lies, they haunted me to my core
A bit ashamed I’ll admit I swore
They told me the tale of a fairytale place
I was sorry to find out: it was not the case

A dragon appeared, spreading fire
I was filled with a fear that’ll never tire
But as the warrior I thought of myself to be
I knew I should not, could not try to flee
Looking around, I found a thrown away sword
Advancing towards the dragon, I tripped on a cord
Inspecting further I realized it was a chain
The dragon, in fact a prisoner in pain

I freed the dragon, making it tame
Unfortunately, the clouds still aflame
Rushing down the ladder there was no time to dwell
I couldn’t care less of how I ended up in hell
But I was happy; I had made a new friend
Surprisingly this is The End

You told me I am your sun
but I am the moon
I only shine because of you

Three dimensions
360 degrees
A rainbow of color
A bang and a sizzle
Leaving only a cloud of empty smoke
A bottomless hole of nothingness

My love chains me
I resent you
for tying me so tightly

I am not enough
I am not enough

I have vowed my life to you
and I will fight forever to be worthy
i just hope I don't end up hating you

Your perfection is an illusion I can’t see through
I like everything about you
Moonlight dancing in your eyes
My stomach full of butterflies

Hair brown as a cacao bean
Skin giving of a golden sheen
A hidden kindness no one sees
Decapitating my knees

I know I might never have you
That you might never be mine
But in my head we have adventures
We travel the world
And we lie singing in your bed
Staring up at the ceiling
Where we have painted stars
To remember that time we slept outside
Or was that just in my head?

I know I might never have you
But that doesn’t stop me from dreaming
Or quietly whispering your name
When no one is around to hear
It doesn’t stop these cravings I have for you
It doesn’t stop my fingers from itching
Or stop me from wanting to run my fingers through your hair
It doesn’t stop my curiosity of what you smell like
But really, I would be happy just breathing the same air

I know I might never have you
That you might never be mine
But that doesn’t stop me from dreaming about you all the time

Unlike a sliver of cake
That sliver of hope
Made me feel whole
Complete
But then
The realization hit
And that little sliver
Turned into
Numbness

Empty sky filled with smoke
No more bursts of light
Suicidal snowflakes tumbling down
hitting tired ground
It's last year's funeral
This year's birth
The sun will shine again
Even though it hurts

Your perfection is an illusion I can’t see through
I like everything about you
Moonlight dancing in your eyes
My stomach full of butterflies

Hair brown as a cacao bean
Skin giving of a golden sheen
A hidden kindness no one sees
Decapitating my knees

Even though I can’t see what’s underneath
I can feel the burning heat
Every time you’re near
My heart palpitating so loud, I swear you can hear

Quoting my favorite song
I’ve been this way for far too long
Lost in a love I never had
I’m too pathetic and sad
You don’t even say hello
Why the f*ck can’t I let go?

You look at me with a hint of recognition in your eyes
You think maybe we’ve had a class together or played the same sport
Or maybe I am the girl who lived in that house down the road
You know I look familiar
You have seen me before
I look slightly different from everybody else
That’s why you recognize me
But you don’t remember me
I am like the painting you have walked past a thousand times
Without stopping
Never really having looked at it
I am like the carbon dioxide in the air around you
I am there
But I am INVISIBLE to you
I mean NOTHING to you
Even though you once meant EVERYTHING to me

And I try to ignore
The little knife
Digging into my heart
When I see you
Holding back tears
That only exist
Because of her

If you ever asked me what I thought of you
I would tell you
I would tell you I’m obsessed with you
I dream about you every night
And every day
I write poems about you
I post them online
And hope that someone will like them
So I’ll feel less like a loser
I would say it like it was a joke
Dripping with sarcasm
‘Cause sometimes the best lie is the truth

Her cheeks are red
Her smile is small and shy
As they touch it spreads across her face
Happiness is shining through her eyes
And I can’t help but smile too

I looked into your eyes.
I saw every little twinkle.
Are those for me? I wondered.
Am I the reason you twinkle?
