Like the flow that is time
I'm drifting like a leaf floating on the cool waters
Torn from the branches where I originated
Other leaves floating to their destination

The chlorophyll breaking down the colors of green pigments
Slowly wilting away internally
The surface turning brittle and shatter at one's grasp
Lying there until the start of rebirth

Once again, the cradles reveal a new identity
The branches supporting the developing life
Transporting basic necessities of life
Until the cycle begin once again and the leaf starts to drift away

You start your journey, the moment the world became your cradle
Experience the possibilities of many opportunities
The cards have yet to determine your precise future
Can't you hear the chuckling of amusement

Your bonds will create an sense of connection
The strings tangles when dealt with confusion
Are you able to turn zero into one
The dog following close behind whispering when you might fall

"Your dreams move you forward."

-Reverse-

That dog is no longer able to whisper guidance as it's truly free
Your dreams no longer blind your perspective
However you remain there, not moving
Unable to accomplish your desires but able to achieve success

It hurts when you're forgotten by someone you care for
That you remember them and all that they did for you
You spend there waiting
Only for time to pass and the pain to dull
Meeting new friends and experiencing new things
Only for them to possibly forget you too
You're honestly prepared for that day but until then, you live in the now
Do my voice reaches your ear?
Do my word have any meaning?
Do I mean anything to you?
I'll wait for your answer as I wait for you to **remember me

“You are ugly,” an ugly comment posted by an ugly man
I know
“You won’t get married, alas” The ugliness deep in his heart must be greater than mine
I know
I continue to type on my keyboard, not responding to the man at all.
Simply ignoring his presence as a stranger is insignificant to me
“You will be single for your whole life”
I know
I rather people love me for my personality and all of my ***** flaws
The rain continues to platter in the background, cleansing the ugliness
Such as god have once promised to cleanse the earth by drowning us in the great flood
The ***** emotion in my heart lightened
And I resume my day without the stain of ugliness

I don't desire to share my opinions with anyone
Too long, have they been bashed upon by peers or anonymous figures
"You should respect their opinion."
What hypocrites, even opinions could be wrong and hurt others

"For the sake of arguing."
It doesn't matter if they humiliate someone.
It doesn't matter if they turn others against them.
It doesn't matter if they were wrong as well

Even if you understand their perspective, they refuse to see yours
I long to be mute
I hate my own speaking voice
If all my words are unheard


"I can't express myself, this secretive awkward human."

If only they knew of the true cynical and diabolical thoughts locked away
Would anyone bother to accept and understand
Or would I be shunned
Isolated like I had been since so long ago

I don't mind singing
The rhythm and flow much better to the accented jumble words
However I'm merely a ghost that no one notice when they have stars to illuminate the room

"Ahhhh.. The jealousy and bitterness will consume me."

"Please see me."
"Please acknowledge me."
"Please talk to me."
"Please hear me."

*I'm fading away.
