I.
I want to tell your lover
He deserves no less than none
Of the feeling that you gave me
You were there but you were gone

II.
I want to tell your lover
Be careful
Within those smiles and a lack of a care
Lies someone scared
Someone unsure
Someone that's afraid to let you go
But at the same time
Finds it an absolute necessity to **** herself everyday
Hearing those daily goodbyes

Be careful
You will get hurt
And you will hurt her too
Stepping on glass shards
Stained by your tears
Stained by your love
Walk every step together
Each step so painfully slow
As the Holy Ghost speak remnants
And the past hates to let thing go

III.
It will not be easy
Not a day will go by wondering how the stars aligned
Filling the skies with embers
Pushing you closer and closer
To what she is, was, and will be
And with that
And despite that
Love her
Please do
Then maybe you would understand
That though your love is true
It can fall apart
At any time
At any second at that
When love is but a one-way road
The road is left to lack

IV.
Twisted road and sails amok
What kills you is what is true
Then maybe you would understand
What I did (and what you'll do)
I don't know where this came from...but I guess it's there so that's that. XD

Understand not the taste of time
Instead turn back to the broken lines
That lead you to follow
That lead you to tell
As you smile and sing that
All is well
Do you believe yourself?
Perhaps.
Hmmm, gives me a feel of dystopian worlds

I live in a world
Where fantasy melds
With the bottle that replaced mother
And the stars that fill me with wonder
As I hide in a corner
The cupboard bed
And I think of all the time that might have been
Wasted
Living the lives
Long dead
Books were my life when I was young XD

New to love
New to lost
New to being alive
(At most)
writing this makes me remember how it felt like to blush at the mere mention of a person XD really embarrassing

And when you breach her silhouette
And feel your pulse ignite
And when she gazes through you
And sees the soul inside
...
...
...
Don't let her feel the wind blows cold
Keep her warm in every night
She looks down on the ground
So show her the stars
That are nothing to the joy in her eyes
She doesn't need your saving
She needs one who understands
Who'd sit in silence (and sadness) when the bridges fall down
And not wonder what love is for her
So I tried to see after a two week hiatus what I could write and this is what I whipped up...

We are paragraphs
Written in the intended order
Introduction body conclusion
Structured carefully
And piece by piece
so we'd fall into each other
Part of a longer poem, but I like this part the most XD

City lights, heart sighs
The searching must go on
Clearly seen in sullen eyes
What hasn’t begun is done

A dream, where it all started
A dream, there’s little else
A dream, this is what you wanted
A dream, you hear the bells

Red, better stop the tune
Green, thinking but of you
Yellow, stars can only shine
When to yourself you’re true

Solitude or loneliness
The lies all blend inside
A world where you are more or less
There’s nowhere left to hide
It's funny how the hustle and bustle makes one feel even more lonely at time, isn't it?
