My mother once told me I was talented
She encouraged me, and told me to fly
But yesterday night, she whispered to self, "the only thing my daughter is talented at is becoming a disappointment."

shout-out mom.

TERROR STRIKES

TERROR STRIKES

Happy families, smiling,
enjoying time together,
atmosphere filled with their laughter.

And then -

in a moment of madness,
all silenced.

Bullets took over,
dead bodies lying all around.

Terror strikes the land
we call "Paradise on Earth."

just a little crush

just a little crush

I don’t even know him well,
But there’s something in the way I fell.
A glance, a laugh, the way he stands,
And now I’m stuck in daydream plans.

He doesn’t know, and that’s okay,
I watch from just a step away.
It’s nothing big, no spark, no rush,
Just a quiet little crush.

Dial Tone..?

Dial Tone..?

Leave a message!
I can’t answer now...
or later.

I couldn’t even have then.

I just forget your voice
sometimes.

In glimmering,
lingering,
longing
glances,

I seem to
revisit how we met.

This is our season, remember?

This was our season,
remember.

I was so sick of feeling heartbroken
That I took my own heartstrings
And wove the pieces back together.

My new heart is embroidered, and even better than before.

Like Clay

The things I would do,

The people I would become,

If only had you asked it of me.

The amount I would reinvent myself

For a simple whisper between

Would astonish you.

So what?
Can I not be all that you have ever wished for?
So what?
