The heart is the world.
Filled with life known to exist or not.
Containing the life that make up everything.
And protects this life, even at the cost of its own.

The heart is the sun.
Pulsing heat and light into the world.
As of the warmth of an embrace.
And the illuminating glimmer of hope to others.

The heart is the vast outer space.
The wide black void.
But only through this darkness,
Can we see the specks of light better and brighter.

The heart is the universe.
Home of the known and the unknown.
Where the bloodstream lies as the continuum of time and space.
And the only place I'd rather be.
the heart is everything. the heart is the universe. let me be in your universe.

I promised myself
that the only girl
who has the right
to make me cry
is my mother.

Don't approach a dog unknown to you
Holding out your hand, making eye contact
You may frighten him
Let him come to you

Don't write a poem uninspired
It won't work out
In good time
Let it come to you

Don't go out there seeking love
Like a child with a butterfly net
Live your life
Let it come to you

every time my urge to cry comes,
i just make myself realize.

*are you still worth my tears?

Seeing your face, I see nothing but lies.
There's no mistake. I saw through your guise.
A sight was enough. A quick look in your eyes.
Nothing more but a glance should suffice.
Everything you'll reveal will be no surprise.
But keep in mind that many things come with a costly price.
Will I wait for your virtue and keep resisting your vice?
Or just end it all and sever the ties?

I thought I can handle every word you say
Because we give and take those three words too lightly.
Never thought of being dismayed
Of you, saying those words too frankly.

I'm starting to be afraid of you.
Those words echoed in my mind.
Overpowering your I love yous
That used to ring in my ears every time.

A random time to be lonely
Caused a scarring depression.
Never thought that love
Can quickly turn to fear.

*Or was it love in the first place?
