Stardust Shower Jul 2017
home is the place where you belong that gives you warmth and strength,
a place that you long when you've been gone too long, or even just a while,
but sometimes, home isn't a building with walls and doors and windows,
because for me, it's you
the fireplace that gives me warmth is in your eyes,
your smile strengthens me like the sound sleep after a long day,
and your touch is like the warm shower that makes me forget after the tiring things,
it's you, my home is you.

up to this day,
one am and nineteen years of living,
i thought i had mastered the art of looking forward
and loving every piece of myself that once i hated,
or the ones i've never really loved

but the world often prove me wrong
it made me tough as rocks just to bring the waves hitting me again
or simply by the words of mere meaningless letters
that aren't supposed to punch my gut

it doesn't take much to make my heart feel like carrying the whole world
it doesn't take much to take down the guards i've built
and you don't need to point your weapons at me and beat me up
to make me rethink of my decision to love myself

it does hurt for now like the world is against me
but i will pick up the pieces of my broken self back
and learn to love every single one of them again

it's only nine,
where the night barely shows its deep secrets
yet i already am sharing mine with it.
in between the pandemonium
and the faint sounds of television
in the dim light of living room,
i tell the night of how i crave for your skin.
how every little touch of yours would wake the butterflies inside my stomach,
how soft your milky face would feel like,
and how i want to connect the constellation of moles and imperfections in your perfect face.

it's only nine,
the time i want to breathe you in as i hold your tiny hands,
that i'm convinced would feel warm in the midst of howling wind.
i want to hold you and tell you my restlessness of not having you by my side.
it's the first time i want to see your face instead of the gleaming stars above,
because your eyes hold more than millions stars and constellations in the sky.
but don't tell the night, for it would be jealous of you.

to the earth you stand on,
to the sky you look up at,
to the moon you always adore,
to the stars that spark dimly since your eyes,
to the sun your smile outshines,
to the whole constellation connecting more dots than words i have to express my love,
and to your holy name i love to hail,
your dreamy lips moving upward when you see me,
your body god himself carved that i love drowning myself in,

have i promised to love and protect you, against all odds.
