When out of a clear sky, the bright

Sky over Japan, they tumbled the

death of light,

For a moment, it's said, there was

brilliance sword-sharp,

A dazzle of white, and then dark.

Into the cavernous blackness, as

home to hell,

Agonies crowded; and high above

in the swell

Of the gentle tide of the sky, lucid

and fair,

Men floated serenely as angels

disporting there.

On the shore I stand,
Feeling my toes in the sand,
Foggy, cloudy weather,
Grey sky, has no sign of pleasure.
Feeling my Feet drawn,
With every wave feeling down,
I've been there for a while,
Waiting just to see her smile,
Like a star between the cloud,
She appears between the crowd,
I could feel nothing but the air,
Messing and moving her hair,
My conscious could not bear,
  I could not tell fantasy,
From the bare reality,
She's just like Illusion,
It was strange what I felt,
she softly made my heart melt,
Slowly she went out of my sight,
I tried to keep her there,
I started running ,
Trying to follow her there,
She disappears in the nowhere,
just there,
I fell...
The sand became harder than I thought,
It became concrete and so cold,
something was next to me,
strangely it's my bed !
It was all a dream,
nothing but a dream,
she was never there,
I don't know where,
She is there somewhere,
I'm in love with a ghost,
It's a nightmare.

What if there were
No God and angel,
No good no evil,
No Lucifer  and  Satan,
No soul no demon,
No creature and Human,
No wonder no why,
No truth no lie,
What if there were
No east no west,
No worst nor best,
No black and white,
No day and night,
And no wrong no right,
,
,
Would this universe be such a  fake existence ?
Or just a world with nothing but consistency  ?*

The most beautiful you can ever see,
There, she hides in the deep dark sea,
Forever mine, I want her to be,
But take a moment and look at me,
I'm nothing like her she's nothing like me,
She has no legs but a tail,
She never walks but sail,
She never cries, she has no tears,
But the sun she fears,

We would spend the night
Under the starlight,
While staring at the moon
That makes our love bloom,
But at the beginning of the day,
In my world she would never stay,
She will have to get into her way,

And when she dives down,
With her my heart will drown,
That deep sea will be a grave,
The coffin would be the wave,
The corpse would be the love,
The love that we had above...*

oh
small
white
oval
pill,

i send you down my throat
and i can feel the tension leave me.

i am only scared
for when you run out
what will calm me
then?
I don't know why I'm looking at your picture again
when all it ever does is make me cry.
I don't know why I can't settle for being your friend.
But I have a tendency to die right after I beat my high
score, as if I can't handle being good enough, because
nothing else ever is.
I guess that's why, when everyone turned playdates into
dates, I turned birthdays into confessions.
I'll play truth or dare with strangers, but I'll always pick dare,
because how can I say my truths out loud when I can't even
whisper them to myself alone in the dark?
And why is it so easy for me to flirt with your friend when I've
loved you for years an I can't even look you in the eye?
Why can't I put a pen to paper without writing your name?
If love always hurts then why do I spend half my time feeling empty?
How can I be jealous of the friends you text back when you're
fighting with them?
And here I am, trying so hard to be a good friend to you that I forgot
about the people who were good friends to me.
Why is it so hard to write about my feelings when I know exactly what they are?
Get it? The title is what's described by the last line.
