I wish I wasn't dull,
Without flavor.
I wish I had more hunger to live, to persue the call in my soul.
I wish I had more to give,
More dept to the way i love others,
A selfless mindset,
A less broken heart.
I wish I wasn't this messed up.
I wish...

His smile never met his eyes
expressions shatter
tensions flow
lips flash a twitch, truth hides

Remember still the evil grin
Telling one lie
Leaving behind another
respect is flattering
charming

He tells you one thing,
Then decides another way
Left is right when he wishes
Where do these conversations lead?

Respect is fenced by thorns
Underneath the petaled flower
She'll draw blood if provoked
Graze the blackened storm

Its here, this hurricane

Blow by blow, these scars are torn
Pillaged memory, lost feelings
Beyond a road I don't wish to walk
The hammer stings the lonely stone
Calling our names

You wore your heart on your sleeve
Until you couldn't take the pain anymore.
Then one day, it shattered on the floor.
You could pick it up
And put it back together.
But you can't help but wonder...
"What for?"
Your frustration eventually brings
Tears to your eyes as you realize
That all you want is to feel okay again.
But you're worried if you do,
You could let your guard down
And your heart could break again.
Here's the thing: it doesn't matter
How high or thick your walls are.
You will get hurt one way or another.
So why not let yourself be happy
For awhile.
Go ahead. Have some fun.
Because as far as we know,
You only get one.
Fore told is fore warned
For the texts showed something that she didn't realise
Not wanting to doubt him
His skeletons stayed in the dark
Until when a physical encounter witnessed by her
As her husband slept on with another girl

We are living during the age of Old Children whose toys are cigarettes،
Don't admonish them,
They will shut your mouth with another toy,called broken heart.

Not knowing when a heart does open
We are just looking for the clues
We wonder why the words unspoken
Choose traveling  on tunes of blues

Avoiding gazes to collide
And listening to words, not feelings
We might just let a soul to slide
Away, from this life fast spinning reeling

Wait up, let the murmur of unknowns
Fade in the quietness of darkness!
Don’t worry about the stones not thrown
If kindness stagnates, it collapses...

I see remembrance of embraces
In the stars of shapes of hearts
Across the sky, they all form laces
That puts together my heart’s two parts.

Him
I loved the wrong man,
Who never understood me.
I accepted all his flaws,
And he dares not to stand by me.

I got played by his lying heart,
He keeps hurting my soul and mind,
Still, I am a fool,
To stand by him by any kind.

I know I should have walked away
But his pretty face begged me to stay,
Everybody said I will regret this later,
But I trusted him, no matter.

Why does it hurt so much?
Why does it pain to death?
Why does it hurt to love the wrong person?
The prince, Who broke my faith?
Emotionally disturbed

The entire realm
Of your
Beautiful bare-naked body
Is eternally engraved
In my mind.

Every bump,
Every bone.

The little freckle
On your left cheek
That catches my eye
Every time you speak.

All the scars
On the edge of your thigh,
One prominent one
Where my fingers would always lie.

The edges and curves
Of your heavenly hips,
All of which
My lips never skips.

The taste of your skin
I still feel from within,
But it's never the same
Till I feel you again.

I miss the soft sound of your breath
That put me to sleep at night.
Now I lie awake for hours
Wondering if you are alright.
And When I wake throughout my slumber
Something doesn't feel quite right.
I turn to hold you just to find
That you're nowhere in sight.

And if truth be told
It feels so cold
In this bed that's way too big without you.

I wonder,
Do you toss and fold
Till the night gets old
Do you still think about me too?
