Maybe you're tired,
tired of listening in my stories
through my poems your reading
maybe you are just pretending now.

I don't want to bother anyone anymore
maybe because I just needed someone to listen
on my saddest lines
but now I got nothing else.

I wish you have time to listen,
or read this,
and no matter how busy you are
I wish you were there understanding all of it.

What if I run into the water,
to see the other island
What if I can make a way at the sea
to avoid getting drown
What if I can float in the seashore
maybe I can avoid the sand being magnetized
What if I am with you
maybe I will be happy staring at the sunset
But what if the waves are my friends
maybe every time that they will come
they will slap me,
to wake me up on the dream that I keep on dreaming.
#once upon a story
Call me crazy
I refuse to talk in a room full of my peers,
Because I am afraid for
How those will react to the
“Shy” “Quiet” “Odd”
Girl to speak.

Call me crazy
I would rather be home writing
Enjoying a hot cup of hot cocoa rather than
Be out late at a party
With a random stranger
Who likes me for when I turn around

Call me crazy
I do not reach societies standards
For a barbie body,
Straight A’s,
Or owning the hottest pair of jeans on town.

Call me crazy
But I am not like the rest
And I refuse to become somebody
Who I do not want to be.

Eating meals together
Sharing the same drink
Buying the same things
Walking home together
are you are friend or a lover?
whatever, whoever you are
The times spent with you were always beautiful

Clumsy mistakes that brings forth
Laughter that could reach the heavens
The times spent with you were always beautiful

Consolation by your kind words
Comfort upon your shoulders
The times spent with you were always beautiful

Beauty fades
Washed away by the river of time
Brings forth my friend's betrayal

Innocence fleeting like dreams
The memory of you brings forth sorrows
The pure feeling with you will never return
The times spent with you are still beautiful
Beautiful
and
Painful

I always hide things
only few knows about it
I'm afraid of judgment
I feel terrible inside

But when someone told me this
my heart flutters
I was too excited to write
and having doubt to tell stories

Poems are full of unspoken words
from our soul down to our sole
everything we had from within
that we wanted to shout out

Maybe it hurts
but it will free us from burden
all of the uncertain things happened
this could make you feel better.

And that's why I write poems.

the artists of words know
its 2a.m. when the words come retching out
after an hour of damp papers
they weren't supposed to come out
not today
no, you can't tell your friends
because only a poet knows
the ****** battle
you are fighting
inside your
head.
keep fighting honey
