I didn’t know
That when you left
I wouldn’t see you
Ever again.

I waved goodbye
I smiled bright
Until they called me
Late at night.

Sometimes I think
When light has gone
You were a lost cause
All along.

But then when rays
Of light arrive
Tears of betrayal
Leave my eyes.
Today I’ll ponder,
on these scars.
Tonight I’ll wish,
upon a star.

Tomorrow may bring,
another wound,
but wounds can heal,
if treated soon.

Yesterday,
I thought of death,
and felt the wind,
sigh with his breath.

Not today,
he whispered clear,
perhaps tomorrow,
but do not fear.

In the end,
he comes to all.
The weak, the strong,
the big and small.

He’s timeless and constant,
Death’s always “been”,
and he has no pity,
foe or friend.

He’ll lead me on,
to the unknown,
giving me the thing,
he can never own.

So I will not fear him,
and I shall not fret.
For tomorrow,
has not happened yet.
Death comes to us all.

but since you left,
it’s the only time i can seem to breathe

I think you told a lie today
about the shadow on your mind.
I think you plan to die today,
and leave these follies far behind.

I wish you would write me a song,
and ink the truth within its verse.
Happy or sad, it's fine, so long
as this does not end in a hearse.

No more lies
or games
no shame taken
on

I am
what I am
and will
with no fibre of me
adjust
just to make you feel
better.

I tried to be cold hearted
but I still laugh at your jokes

I tried not to wake the fire
but I keep bursting out in laughter

This is to the woman
Who keeps reminiscing
About remnants of nostalgia
A woman who is all but a shadow
Whose leaves turned brown
A dim light that waits by the gate
A ghost that yields to me
The woman who’s trying
To find Eden
Longing for autumn
Falling asleep in her grief

This is to the woman I became

Briefly,
We were magical;
Like shooting stars
Caught between clouds.

chasing rain
i hate you because
you are the only reason
that i'm still alive
seriously just let me die already
