I'm always distant,
Content of stealing glimpses of you from afar.
But never have I experienced sharing the same glance with you.
You never look at me like I do,
You never cared, for in your world,
I am a thin air; invisible.
I am only a dust in a desert,
I am nothing, for in your world I don't exist.
Envy is what I feel whenever I see you talk and burst in laughter with your friends.
They are lucky for they enjoy your company; I couldn't.
I'm afraid to get close to you.
I fear your rejection.
If you think I'm being irrational,then forgive me.
Forgive me for noticing you.
Forgive me for loving the way you are, Because I did not do this on purpose, It was a pure accident.
Until stars burn old and fire turns cold.
Your smile will be treasured forever... If only you can offer me one..? For once, just this once,
Let me own a smile from you...
There are some words that touch you so deeply, they break you...

-Ravanna Dee
Whether they're hurtful words, or beautiful ones... They can pull on your heart so thoroughly it just crumbles. Does anyone else know what this is like?
Ink
Scratching for quite some time
on this blank white page,
my emotions flow
shine and glow
till the emptiness
imbibes my thoughts
like raindrops after a **drought.
I love fountain ink pens :)
Your voice was like a

that lured me to the depths of your

Sirens
I’ll sleep away all the grief,
Hoping one day I’ll find relief.
I’ll wait till the sky turns golden,
Hoping someone will come help me with this burden.
So wake me up when it’s over,
Till then I’ll lay down in a bed of clover.
At night when the lights will go down,
There will come a moment when I’m lost but found.
There will come one day,
When there will be no regret, no more nightmares and waking up covered in sweat.
There will come one day,
When I’ll finally fall asleep, somewhere far away in a slumber dark and deep.
Perhaps you would be happy in those endless dreams,
To drug your way out of this pain,
To drift silently into and enchanted sleep from which you would never have to wake up again,
But I ask you this. I ask you this out of pure selfishness,
Come back to me. Come back for me,
And when you do you, you will find me waiting here
And I shall love you the same.
I will love you with every broken heartbeat.
Always.
I am so desperate.
Walk on by
As though he doesn't phase
Just say, "Hi"
Don't stare in a gaze
Keep on going
Just walk on by

As days pass
I don't ask
I assume he is of the past.
Again i drop on by
Just to say, "Hi"

There.
There he is,
Comfortable and warm
Lying asleep as i walk through the door

Can you feel my crush?
End to begining
Begining to end
Be adventurous with a new friend
Break the bread
Bend to the limit
No consequences
Enjoy every minute

Be alert
Be aware
I'm not a perfect person
But I care

Lets make a memory
People often don't share
Give me a kiss
Anywhere I dare
Your love for me was unrequited.
Did it tear you to pieces?
How I shook you off
for another who didn't deserve me?

Funny how the human mind works.
Now I see what you mean.

My love for you is unrequited.
How it breaks me to pieces.
How I was so blind
to see that you are so perfect to me.

Funny how the human mind works.
Do you see what I mean?
Such a hunger
     holy hunger
         and thirst
              such joy
                   such peace

A Holy Place
      to be

Such a memory
     to return to

The Presence of God
      is in that place.
