Spoken words hurt you much more
Sticks and stones may break your bone, words can break your soul till it die.

I believed in the word "you"
There were "us" between you and I.

"Little things matter.",
but why is it that
you never replied me back every night
you never recalled the night we hung out
for the first time
you never rang me first
you never said goodbye to me
on the night you left me alone

I'm not even a little thing
for you, but in my mind
you were the little thing
that everyone is so reluctant to say.
just saying or maybe i'm such a terrible writer after all.

Don't do that, babe,
don't tell me I'm not trying.

I swam through 12 oceans and drowned
in every single one of them but
each time the water swept into my lungs
and the fish started swimming
in my bloodstream.

I spat it all up and went on swimming
'cause I know I can't face another day
without you in my mind.

There will be no life rafts
and I will definitely not pop in the middle of the ocean
like murdered bodies in crime scenes.

I am a ****** sinking ship.

I promise you
I will make it to shore alive, though.

My note: Nothing would be the same if you didn't exist. I miss you but you would be better off without me, honey. I'm a thinker, not a talker.

I killed what was left of the good in me
and I'm so tired as ****.

In the midst of hot last summer
You were in my arms and
now I only remember the time when you were mine.
On the last mid-autumn
You told me you were minted with joyful nightmares
and I was far away and didn't say anything.

The odds of having heart palpitations countless times,
the thought of it affected me,
now I can only recall the bad times
and a glimpse of your silhouette.
While thin grey clouds are holding their heads up high
and music is blasting out the window
I'm on my way to you
- a journey to the centre of your voice
before the sun comes alive

I’ll be a dedicate wildflower
with a beating heart once again,
and I don’t know why I remember but I was your crimson terror
that are holding you against your will.
I promised you that I’ll be on the brink of letting you go but I lied.

I hear some of you say
that I'm going crazy but
I don't give a first.
Give me something surreal at least
so I can buy it and go behind the shed
to smoke a cigarette.

Everyone's a combination
of happiness and craziness and
some would lose and some one win.
If you failed, remember
that every time you re-miss
you're hiding from your true self
in a real world.

Pretend you're happy, fine, cray,
totally out of control at times.
Start crying to the mirror
if you don't know what to do or say.
The art of living is in your head.

I hear some of you say
that I'm making them smile and happy but
I don't give a first.
Believe me, If i feel the same I'd buy you a hundred candles
and left 21 candles to be blunt
or give anything just to feel that
on my skin

I destroyed my body
for a peace of mind i never got.

It's amazing how at one point in my life
I will be extremely close with you and then
later you will become a complete stranger.
You passed me without a word,
without a single acknowledging look. But,
you were the person, who once knew me so well
that you knew all my dark secrets and saw me through.

You were the smell before the rain but
now you are the blood in my veins,
a heart without chains.
No one's going to kiss the pain away. It's miserable, tired and lonely.
