Chér

sleep.

hand's shaking
have you once realized?
eyes were blurring
have you ever cared?

i spent nights thinking of us
screaming my thoughts loud
burning my heart up
losing my soul in a deep broke

but still,
i hope you'd sleep well
not dreaming a thing
let the thoughts fly away
and have yourself a peaceful night

jumbled up

I'm just very tired
I really thought
It'll be over by now
But how
Can it when I'm
Often confused time
After time? I don't know.
I don't want it anymore.
I just want to feel right
Starting tonight

destroyers

We were meant to destroy*
I mean, that's how we met right? I was walking alone one night, decided to rip up a jacket I picked up from the subway. I heard a crash and you were there; breaking apart a wooden bench by the street. Our eyes met and we exchanged a smile.
That's how we went.
We destroyed walls with our rude psychedelic murals, set the trash cans on fire, broke our limbs when we went rock climbing in summer '09, wrecked every room we went in at 3am on Thursday nights.
It shouldn't be a surprise to how we are now.
All our dates before, we'd destroy at least one thing.
Now we're destroying each other.

Aphrodite

With gorgeous, silky, wavy hair
Sparkling eyes that you wouldn't dare
to look away, for she
is Aphrodite.
Dainty hands, oiled so sweetly
Her mouth moves beautifully,
smiling cunningly with brains
that remains
etched into your mind,
never far behind.
A voice that coos and whispers
suggestively into your ears.
Pulling you in
like silk upon your skin.
Delivering messages you long
to hear, even if it's wrong.
For she is the goddess of love;
You will fall, indeed. From high above.

You thought you were strong?
Oh no, honey, you're wrong.
Even the strongest heroes
have kneeled to the throes
of love. So how could a mere
mortal like you would sneer
at what she could do?
People have died because of love. It's true.
She twists your mind
all around,
become her slave, yes,
it's a beautiful mess.

With her perfect body,
curves in all the right places. Even I'd readily
jump out just to feel her godly touch.
For love, it's never too much.
Her whole being embraces
what romance could do to people in places.
Whether it's your mind or anatomy,
she revels in being your enemy.
For she is love, and she knows
that this is what you chose.
It is love and
she has won.

12:02 am thoughts

I'm in my room but I'm wishing that I could be with you right this instant so badly. In your car, with that sharp tangy air freshener hanging over the A/C, listening to your strange music that I usually don't listen to unless you introduce them to me, snuggling close for warmth as the sky keeps raining and droplets would form on the glass windows, racing down after each other.

Pretty boys aren't worth crying over, I know. But why are my eyes clouded with tears and my heart is squeezing painfully in my chest? "You aren't mine, you aren't mine, you aren't mine. You never were and you never will be. You belong with someone else. And you're quite happy, too." My mind rang so I quickly press exit and lock my phone. It isn't worth it.
