Words have edges like knives,
Sharp.
The outcomes are unseen
to the human eyes
But
the bleeding of the heart is unmissable
if perceived with empathy.


• e.i •

Let's go back to the beginning,
to the time before there was a 'you and I',
when there's only a 'You' and an 'I',
so that there won't ever be an ending
because
"Why end something that never had a beginning?"

{ E.I }

Darkness lurks in every corner,
He is trapped.
On his knees,
He covered his face,
Trembling like a leaf
-- as he prayed for God --
To save him from the demons
That tortures him.

{ e.i }

I always thought I would never love again,
that I wouldn't love another the same way I love him.
until you caught my attention.
I don't know what it was about you,
that made me fall in love with you.
Whenever you smile,
the butterflies in my stomach comes to life.
It's like my world of monochrome finally
had colors.
With your laugh, your voice,
and the quirkiness I adore.
This feeling was different from what I felt before,
but it was a good different.
It's like I've found the thing that I didn't know I've been missing.


{ E.I }

You know that feeling where you thought that you really love that someone so much, you thought you couldn't really live without him/her?
Then suddenly, as time goes by,
you stop feeling that way without realizing it.
And you don't feel jealous when they were with someone else,
and yet you still seem to care?
That's how I feel about him.

{ E.I }

I hate the way you would tend to stare at me,
and the way you would ignore me.
I hate the way you smile,
and the way you styled your hair.
I hate your black hoodie,
and how much you love red.
I hate the way you laugh,
and how you act so weird.
I hate the way you get so close,
and how you actually aren't.

I hate you so much,
that I actually lied.

{ E.I }

She's not that little girl anymore.
Expectations,
Humiliations,
Condescensions,
The world
Had killed
her happiness,
her soul,
her innocence.
The body is just an empty shell,
just there for the rest of the journey.

{ e.i }

There he was,
his dark hair slicked back as he wove his hand through,
the sleeve of his white shirt rolled up to his elbows.
When he looked up, his brown eyes met mine.
It shone in recognition.
For a moment,
we turn back in time
in the days where I first saw you,
when we were younger and foolish.
But before my heart start to waver;
before the walls I've built cracks;
I turned around and walk away,
just like you did that summer day.

{ E.I }

It was raining. It was cold. The sleeve of my shirt sticking to my skin, my flats wet and ***** from the mud and rain.

Suddenly, the rain stopped pouring down on me and a shadow loomed over me. I looked up, I saw him.

He was the one who shield me, rather than shielding himself. Held me so close, just so I wouldn't get wet. We laughed at how ridiculous we look as people stare at us. Cramped together under the small pink umbrella; our shoulders touching, our hands touched slightly.

If I knew what he had thought at that moment,
I wouldn't know what I'd do.

{ E.I }

The funny thing is that we're the same, you and I, we both don't want to be alone. But the difference is that you try to be with someone to fill that loneliness even if what you had was temporary while I, on the other hand, try to contain the emptyness to myself causing the darkness to slowly consume me.

{ E.I }

She didn't have anything to do with that boy,
so why was her heart still feel that feeling of jealousy
when he was with someone else?

{ E.I }

Is like trying
to walk with
your feet cemented
to the ground.

{ E.I }

If you ask her why she still love him,
She will answer that
she do not know.
Yes, he did more bad than good to her.
But there was something,
something about him
that kept her from forgetting him.
Maybe it's the little things he did for her.
Or,
Maybe it's just fact that
he was just as broken as she is.
She do not know.

{ E.I }

Your life is fast-paced,
Like the speed of light.
Never able to catch up.

Yet,
The beauty in you retains
Like a oil painting framed on the wall
Forever caught in the moment.

{ e.i }

Don't expect people to be perfect
like a doll without a flaw.
Why are you expecting such things
when you're not
one without dirt as well.
