I have ribs forged with stars and a lost heart

but I know for sure that this soul belongs somewhere

human eyes

have not ever seen.
Random thoughts and feels

You said you
weren't
sure anymore,
that I would never
understand
and maybe
that's what you
wanted,
to see me
on my knees,
drenched
in a puddle
of tears,
tounge-tied with
your
abruptness
to end it all.

The first time I laid
my eyes on you,
a voice echoed, not too far
yet not too close,
suddenly it was blinding,
warm light,
as cliche as it sounds,
yes..., I blinked
and thought I saw wings,
and then I realized,
that devils could fly too.

Writing
has set
me free.

It is
something
nobody
can ever
take away
from me.

He chased her like drifting clouds,
a beauty beheld, he longed for her,
adorned her with jewels, sparkling, brilliant,
like her eyes, reflected in the stars.

He filled her milieu with flowers,
and all fine things she could ever imagine
he was entirely captivated, primed to run away,
to abandon his world of riches,
for her sake and for his.

Blinded by a charm that is visible only in the eye;
forgetting the heart in which fate truly lies
he loved her genuinely,
truly, she was his paragon of happiness;
his one and only goal.

And yet he got nothing in return
not love, not her heart, nor her soul
abandoned, despised, and forgotten,
not a single stem was offered.

Now he wonders in his deep slumber,
forever mourning, and reaching,
for that green light,
a love he knew that was never meant to be his.
I'm so sorry, I just had to write this. The Great Gatsby broke me.

II.
I wish someday
I could wear my heart
on my sleeve
without worrying about
people hurting it.

don't ask me if i'm okay,
for I will always say yes

ask me if i'm bleeding,
ask me do I hurt,
ask me if my broken heart
deserves the world,
ask me, if I love you,
do I or do I?

only with that
I won't ever say a word.
