being forever
your pain's forbearer,
you're not

listen however
learn to be clever,
you got

be your own lover
forget the others,
be haught

Haught: adj. c.1400, haute, "high in one's own estimation" from Old French haut (11c.) "main, principal; proud, noble, dignified; eminent; loud; grand".
Nothing wrong with celebrating yourself.

I've lost count of how many times I've cried
For the impossible desires
For the lost haven
For the stubborn hope.

I've lost count of how many times I've tried
To let go of you
To accept the truth
Only to come back for more.

I've lost count of how many times I've lied
Holding on to a silly pride
Letting you think everything was fine
Just to show my pain through my bleeding lines.

Denial

Máh Lima Jun 2017

Denial

I don't love you
But I like the way you make me feel
I like the way you look at me
I like this burning sensation

I don't love you
But I like the feel of you on my skin
I like the feel of your lips
I like how you taste bittersweet

I don't love you
But I like how you call my name
I like how you feel the same
I like the way we lose ourselves in each other's minds

It's not love
And I couldn't care less
Even though I don't love you
I don't want to ever walk away

Two lives intertwined
Living at war
Two hearts beating in unison
Looking for peace
Shooting each other down
But tightly chained.
If only for a moment
They would stop and notice
One can’t stand if the other is down
Their wants and wishes were the same
If only for a moment they noticed the chain…

Two lives intertwined in love
Two hearts beating in sync
If only for a moment hope was not lost
Two souls could find peace.

I count the days we don't speak
"I miss you" I think
but can't find a way to convey
I wait
and wait
and wait
for another chance
maybe a change
of heart
yours or mine,
I don't know anymore.

We were sparks
That never ignited
Pretending to burn
Ephemeral
Lost in our own
Twisted desires

D o Y o u ?

Máh Lima Jul 2017

D o Y o u ?

Do you know me?
Because sometimes I thought I knew you
But I don’t know you anymore.

Do you hear me?
Because sometimes I thought I heard you
But I don’t hear you anymore.

Do you see me?
Because sometimes I thought I saw you
But I don’t see you anymore.

Do you feel me?
Because sometimes I thought I felt you
But I don’t feel you anymore.

Do you understand me?
Because sometimes I thought I understood you
But I don’t understand you anymore.

Are you following this?
Because I was wrong about all I knew
And I don’t want to be wrong anymore.
