I may go quietly from this world-
Swiftly, without protest
Or I may rage and burn
Like we think we should
I may become someone before it’s done
Someone whom the world loves and somehow isolates with that love
Maybe be remembered by that love
Or I could be taken out like a spider in a bathtub
Drowned unceremoniously
By something much larger than me
And be forgotten by the time the water heats
And hits the porcelain

The stars are leaving again..
Pulsars stop spinning..
Forgotten light seen again..

They were already gone..
Pulsars start spinning..
Remembered light was never gone..

Dream nebulas mix together..
Mind paint brush of the cosmos..
Colors of my soul shine together..

Portrait of distant thoughts..
Mind paint brush strokes..
Are the memories of light and your beautiful thoughts..

I'll see you again...
You were never gone..
Because you are still in my thoughts..

You tried to help,
But I kept on breaking you
Over
And over

Bruised
And battered, my heart
Will still choose, to bother yours.

you’re alive today
your aching ribcage
are filled with petals
as you kiss his cheeks
over and over again
you feel like stardust
filled your soul
and today you tell yourself
‘I finally love again’

I’ve gone and done
something dumb
again
you can’t love me,
but what if
you do?
you look at me,
I *******
crumble
your eyes on me
making me
want you
knowing I won’t have you
probably not ever
now I’ll sit in my car
I’ll pretend forever
you want me too

Don't love again coz it's full of tests and trials,
It gives you a full rapture without any factual denials,
Don't love again if you are not that strong,
For there are nothing of love you belong,
Don't love again,
You will cry again.

Love is the deepest and strongest affection,
That none can bother with its complications,
Love is like a bridge held high,
You don't have the heart to look at the sky,
Especially when love is leaking blood from the sky to your eye,
Don't love again,
You will cry again.

No sanity after madness of love,
It always gives you a different curve,
Don't bother with the mind you have,
Coz love is like a lawless landlord,
Your rental is only what he can afford,
None can judge him but only your Lord,
Don't love again
You will cry again

I thought you'd understand...
I guess it was all in my head
Like a song on rewind
going over the same verse
over and over again...

We never could get our timing right,
Could we?

I was always one step ahead,
or one too far behind.

You were scared, I know.
That's always
The Status Quo.

But,
Can we try again?
Please.

I just need to try again.

when you walk away
i'm still head over heels for you
still feel my heart skip a beat
still feel my stomach dropping out
like that time we went on the roller coaster
and i saw the skyscrapers upside down with you
i still feel the butterflies
still think about the what-ifs
still wonder what i did wrong
still think about you
but you're walking away
and i don't know how to go after you
