Stop the lies,
there's other things to do,
better things to do,
just break the ties,
leave it all
until it safely dies,
leave it all
for someone else.

Compelled to let go
I want you to know
there is no other way
there is no better way.

There's not much honor in dying
even if you're fighting, at least trying,
save your giving
for the living.
I'm just a station on your way
I know I'm not your lover.

All I want is to watch a movie right now
and for you to hold me.
Because effort's just not worth it anymore.
when I was young
question keeps going around
and around...
in my innocent head
will I stay carefree
will I satisfied of being me
will I still have my parents
for my children to see
and my trusted friends
will I find them
will I will I

will I learn the real
art of love
of how it makes your heart
races....
faster....
faster than ever
like in the movie
that I even forget how to breath
for a second
maybe a minute
or for how much time
I spend with him
You
will I find you
will I will I

will I finally learn
the ache of a heartbreak
that can't be heal
with words
with pills
will anxiety be so overwhelming
that I end up suffering
will I end up drowning in
the middle of the sea mom
will I will I

am I going to die because
of my counting ages
or what if
I can't handle the world
that keep falling....
falling right on me
So I took my own life
and my history ends up with a tragedy
will I survive dad
*will I will I
There was a boy
And a pretty girl
The boy thought,
I'll give her a whirl
She passed, "You're hot--hot as the sun"
He felt a very clever one
She stopped when she heard it,
And then she turned
"Don't get too close to the sun,
You might get burned"
Not heeding her,
"How close can I get?"
I'm not going to let her walk off just yet
She glared at him, hiding mischievous smiles
"No less than 93 million miles "
At the end of his wits,
As she strolled out of range,
He yelled, "But how can I get closer?"
"Maybe with season change!"

And as she disappeared from sight,
The horizon fizzled out
And the new moon glittered
And all the stars came out
one of these days I'm gonna say something crazy like I like you and you'll do something crazy like stay.
I absolutely oppose this
Here I am sitted again  
Options laid before me
Another path so enticing
Too many meals before me
All these calling out my name

How do I choose just one
My feet longs for every path
My tongue waters for every bite
Just then  heart whispers contentment
So I followed my heart  and found peace
I no longer think hopes and dreams die
They float around this Earth waiting
Waiting until we give birth to our children
That's when they will reappear
Wrapping themselves around them
Creating an Impenetrable force field
Giving our children the strength we lacked
Helping them achieve the desires
That rumble in their bellies
They will allow the beam of light
The one we will pass down to them
To burst out of their chest
Not fearing the moon's envy
For their light will be the brightest
It will guide bodies
To their own hearts destinations
Stories will be written on staggering walls
About the children of failure who rose up
Who had so much passion
That they created their own light
Led love and happiness
To the doorsteps of many
Brought misery to its knees
With constant humble human nectar
That is what our children will be

Blah blah blah
Enjoy
Ticking of a forgotten clock

Broken mirror, and dusty old books-

Clutter the lifeless room

Scent of fading and falling rain;

wet the dry empty land

Touch, a shattered dream,

feel nothing now.

I am a lost memoir...

I find myself pacing
Or staring at nothing,
While i can't slow my thinking
Or find a pattern in my breathing.

I'm no less lost
Than I was last month,
And no less terrified
Than when I broke
All the promises
I had made to myself.

My tiny room
Can't hold me
For too long.
My expansive thoughts
Bounce off the walls
And back into me
Until I decide to
Find some place open to think.

And I walk all alone
I lay in dark open fields
Or on benches by water,
Hoping my thoughts will get lost
In the landscape
And forget to return to my head.

My eyes fill with anxiety
As I forget to breathe.
I make sure no one
Can see me
Than I let the anxiety
flooding my eyes roll down my cheeks.

The cold breeze
Reminds me to breathe
And I'm back in the grass
Hoping you're thinking about me.
