We used to climb
Stairs of light together
I've done a lot of dying
Since you left
A lot of living too

Fake smiles
Fake happiness
Is better staying alone sometimes
Than being prisoner of their mess
Nowadays no one is truly honest.
It's like anyone is trying to hide something.
You're all scared. We are all scared.
We are terrified to show the world who we really are.
We are petrified to the idea of being vulnerable.

Sometimes
You have to kind of die
Inside
In order to rise from your ashes
These verses are the chorus of one of the songs I wrote for my band.
Those words are engraved in my mind, they mean a lot for me.
There is no change without suffering. But changes are part of our life, everything is change. Since we don't accept it, we'll never know what amazing things could happen.
What the world doesn't know is
You sometimes linger in my head
What happened taught me more than you could imagine
I cried over that war of pain, I thank you for my brand new me.
sometimes acceptance is key

My therapist told me
Exercise would make me happy
So why are there tears in my eyes
As I run away from my problems

There’s a universe inside of you,
But I’m just a little star.
Once my light is out,
There'll be none of me.
You gaze, admired it, then you close your eyes to sleep. Only to wake for the Sun.

Why I write

These words are for me,
For I'm the one who's hurting,
I'm just healing myself.
I often wonder why we can't understand other's poems sometimes, but deep down it is the one who writes it knows the value of it.

fallacies
your eyes still look familiar
but the looks they give me now are foreign
