I think it's foolish
to believe the possibility
that you are blind about how I feel.
Cause I wear my emotions like an armour.

-m.b
You held my hands
when I was fragile.
Told me legends
of how you saved lives,
like a Knight in shining
armor. You'll save me,
you said. Believing
every word, I gave in.

You held the keys,
stored between your lips.
Said it'll grant me wishes.
But stars turned into dusts,
skies painted over lies.
You promised me a forever
and I was mesmerized.
But you're a curse I thought
was a treasure.

-m.b
I can't love you
because we're running
in opposite directions.

I can't love you
because everyone tells us
we won't make it.

I can't love you
because I'm stars and planets;
while you're trees and flowers.

I can't love you
because we breathe
in different elements.

I can't love you
because everything I love
gets ruined fatally.

But we love each other
despite our varying backgrounds
and unsupported systems.

And maybe our love
will bring us closer
or set us apart.

the only thing
that's left with
my burning
and unrequited love
are cinders capable
of flaming up again

i'm just waiting
for someone
to light it up again
but it surely
won't be you
Floating aimlessly
but the tides pulled me in and
I struggle to breathe.

-m.b
I thought I was doing good but I'm being pulled in again. But it's okay. I'll keep trying to stay afloat

sometimes i feel too much
sometimes i feel too little
i wish i could stay in that happy place
that lies right in the middle

when i feel too much
it's a torrent of emotion
a downpour of epic proportion
and i pray for it to end

yet when it does i don't feel enough
i'm numb, frozen, depressed.
I then pray for this to end
and i'd do anything to feel again

so i'm stuck in this happy limbo
never feeling quite right
like goldilocks in the three bear's house
i can't sleep at night

How can thoughts be real
They're not solid enough to touch
So how can someone manifest
A feeling such as love?
Can you
Hold it
Breathe it
Squeeze it in your hands
It's forcing us to trust
In the invisible
Once again

Because although you can't see it
  It can still disappear
Love is the sad song
That left you crying in your beer

Blind sided
It can hit you
And you best believe it's true
Love is as real
As the way I feel for you
....

My mind is broken
Am thinking about hope but I failed , my eyes are open but I can't focus
Hearing the same voice over and over
Again that hopeless voice ...
I wanted to run away but I didn't
I still can't focus on the road that I signed for
My mind is broken , I wanted to fix it but something hold's me back , I searched for myself I searched for my  thoughts  ...
But there's no art to buy , there's no art to buy ...
