All of the leaves and all of the flowers are full of life,
Twisting their colors for the colorless cloud,
Giggles and laughters filled the field,
As if they are trying to reassure the sun that,
These laughters and giggles will stay,
And filled the lonely night.

The sun is working her magic,
​to overturn a tragedy,
​to overturn the sadness of the moon.

Seasons have passed,
​the birds are singing spring,
​the lakes are waving summer,
​the leaves are weaving autumn,
​and the trees are humming winter.

Then there she is,
​trapped in her own music box,
​being lost all she is,
​dreaming of the outside world,
​when she is her own key.

Why cannot she see,
​that the moon and the stars,
​are rooting for her,
​For all she was,
​for all she is,
​and for all she will ever be.

Seasons have passed,
​The melodies of her memories are safely kept by spring,
​The swings of her thoughts are kept by summer,
​The thread of her past by autumn,
​And the rhythms of her footsteps by winter.

Then there she is,
​trapped in her own notes,
​dreaming of being found,
​by the outside world,
​when she is her own song.

Why cannot she see,
​that the entire universe,
​are rooting for her,
​For all she was,
​for all she is, ​
​and for all she will ever be

You came and water the dead flowers in the garden of my heart,
and you watch those flowers trying to bloom again with all its strength,
I thought you'd leave but you didn't,
instead you stay and watch those butterflies come fluttering above those beautiful flowers.

All this long its you that I've been searching for,
The you who knows me well,
The you who treats me well,
The you who takes care of me,
All this long its you that has been there for me.

i lost myself in him
to fill the void you left
where your hands used to be
his wander
lingering touches on the curves of me
the curves you loved so dearly

i lost myself in the way he breathes
his chest heaving and sighing in rhythm to mine
how yours was so
ragged
uneven
like a large weight was placed upon your chest
maybe that weight
was me

i lost myself to him
rendering myself hopeless
to the soft lips on skin
the soft lips that when i close my eyes
reminds me of yours
so pink and full
i could bite that bottom lip always

i lost myself in him
because i found something inside me
that was long forgotten
i kick started the embers burning quietly
roaring to life at the first touch
of his hand on my thigh

i lost myself in the murmured praises
whispering words of my beauty in my ear
making the warmth spread
to the most delicate parts of me
making me ravenous
craving something only another can fill
all the words
reminded me of you

so i shut your face out
i shut out your voice and your words
memories of you and me together
in a situation of intimacy such as this
and lost myself in him

and now i can't seem to find my way back
