While some eat for fun,
others are starving for a single bun.
The days are gone for the baby, who'll be living on its own.
Her teddy will no longer be needed,
Same as her beautiful room.
She'll need to learn how to cook,
or she'll starve herself to death.
Yet there will be no one who'll take a look,
on whether or not she irons her dress.

She will enjoy the freedom and the fun of being away.
And will soon start buying things without thinking how much she pays.
She will love her dream job,
And pretends she is.
For she forgot that her heart was left,
The moment she left the east.

Soon she will feel strange, like something has been lost.
She will find it in bars, in cafes, and even ask her boss.
But it will be too late for the baby to be back home,
For all her life she thought it was her real home.*

Sometimes we wander to wrong places and treat it like its our real home.
We met in a very vast space
where only zeros and ones could activate a magic portal that leads to our address.

A simple 'like' have started it all
Like a bomb that's been waiting to explode.
Like turns to comment then to chats then it turns to video calls that no one knows when would last.

It was too good to be true,
all the sweet nothings and emojis,
all the GIF and vlogs.

I know that one day we'll meet,
not just in that vast space or in our dream,
but in a place where we could touch our hands together,
Without even thinking twice.*

You can find love in unexpected time, event and place.
The river is dammed to
Slow natural flow
Inserting our control
On what was once free

You and me
Are now rivers
Full of power
And might
But are controlled
By concrete and steel

Force to move through
Narrow gaps
And to give ourselves up
To turn generators
Told our sacrifice
Is for the better

I am a lost boy
From never land
Usually hanging with Peter Pan.
Run run lost boy
They say to me
Away from all the reality

what do you do
when the person you love
chooses alcohol
over you?

December was an awful month.
Obnoxious Christmas music
Trees dead
Entitled children
Slay bells ringing blah, blah
*******, *******.
I get out of my car
And my eyes meet yours
And within that moment and every single entire moment after.
December became my favorite month.
December  Is what brought me to you.
December let me look into your green eyes.
December helped me fall in love.
December intrusted me hope.
Now  I sing in the winter.
And I don't hate December anymore.
Because December gave me you.
