and i have never really understood why i hate luggage.
why i barely own handbags,
and would much rather fit the necessities in my purse.
why school didn't seem so bad if i had less books on my back.

i had never really understood why i hated so much baggage.

until i realised that it was because i already had all of me,
to carry.
The only reason someone wakes up one morning and misses their ex is because the new person walked out of their life and they're lonely.
The reason you bounce back to your ex is because you're lonely, the reason he or she bounces back to you is because they ran out of options. Can't you all depend on yourselves?

then headbutt them."

I'm not putting the actual sensei's name as I feel as though it would not be fair because it is not actual advice and was said unseriously and I don't feel as though it important,
Tracking love
Just like a hound
Relentlessly looking
None can be found

Endlessly searching
Throughout the years
Instead of love
Found only tears

Wanting someone
To share my life
I need a friend
Not just a wife

I thought I found a gem
But it turned out to be fake
Got fooled again
Heart continuing to ache

Then I finally found it
This had to be real
I can tell by the touch
And the way I feel

Now the search is over
All the looking is through
I finally found my treasure
And it turned out to be you

If I should die,
And you should live—
And time should gurgle on—
And morn should beam—
And noon should burn—
As it has usual done—
If Birds should build as early
And Bees as bustling go—
One might depart at option
From enterprise below!
’Tis sweet to know that stocks will stand
When we with Daisies lie—
That Commerce will continue—
And Trades as briskly fly—
It makes the parting tranquil
And keeps the soul serene—
That gentlemen so sprightly
Conduct the pleasing scene!
I am a shadow,
Nothing more,
And nothing less.

I follow my host like a slave,
Where he goes I go,
And what he does I mimic.

I am a shadow,
And I must obey,
No matter what I think.

My host is like a parasite,
Controlling my every move,
And I am helpless for I am just a shadow.

I will never live to the fullest,
I will never be what I want to be,
And I will never be free,

For I am just a shadow.
When my mind wanders....
