i was born in fire.
i can not deny the heat in my veins.
but i am not ashamed
that every morning
i swallow the sun
so that the moon
can keep pulling
back the tide
and i let the fog
cover the sunrise
i drench myself in night
because i am left
not right.
cold water comforts my soul
the depth keeps me afloat
there is something beautiful
about a black-colored sea
but as fireborn as i am
there is no ounce of love
for the fire in me.

Don't get me wrong,
Even though I loved him,
He never dictated my happiness.
He just—he made me happier.

i am so close to you
and yet so impossibly far
at the same time

my love–! you are starving my ocean.
my ocean breathes your oxygen
and rests in your soft calamaties
but you have pulled away
and my ocean meets nothingness
when it needs a gentle touch
my love, why do you stray so far?
i can only welcome you now
you hadn't let me say goodbye
but my love, no matter how long
you drift away into your ocean
i will still love you.

on a day where i should’ve lost hope
where i should’ve given up and moved on
i fell in love with you all over again
and i hate that fact that deep down i know
this love will forever stay unrequited.

i imagine it's easy
for you to forget me
and i don't blame you
but i still remember
every blinding smile
lighting up your face
the twinkle in your eye
when you were up to something
every detail about you
your face, your hands, your arms
i still remember you
but it's okay if you forget me
