An imaginary world where anything exist.
One’s imagination it all you need.
To write is to create - an endless possibilities.
Word by word, phrase by phrase, a reality within one’s mind.
A swing of a pen and it shall become.
Line between line, a story is made.
A reality to the characters within.
A world where her story begins.
With the stroke of my pen, I created a world.
A world where my character would live.
A peaceful town, bountiful of blessings.
And thus, she was born - safe and healthy.
Continuously writing with my pen in hand.
I skipped the details until she’s nine.
Grown to be a pretty little girl everyone adores.
But now it has come - it is time to get the story done.
The enticing blank paper allures my imagination.
An empty space where everything is possible.
A swing of my pen is all I need.
And it shall be done, created, thus shall happen.
My hands moved without even thinking.
Slowly and slowly, the conflict will be done.
For out little girl, trapped inside an unknown ground.
Finding her way out, crying while calling for someone.
Seeing this in my own imagination.
I can’t help by to make her suffer more.
It is my story and she’s my character.
Whatever I wrote shall be her fate.
I moved my pen once more.
And make it rain for her to feel cold.
Enlarged the forest, and make her hopeless.
Seeing her dull eyes makes me what to hurt her more than twice.
Hearing her scream with her lifeless voice.
It is nothing but a music into my ears.
I made her more and more hopeless - a chill on my spine.
Slowly taking her life had never this so fun.
As she took her last breath, I feel empty.
I never thought my story meets and ending.
To see my own creation lived until I end it.
I couldn’t help but to think that I would like to switch places.
And now I’m back being an ordinary girl.
To which I am nothing but an average human.
Living in a world where it is bound by rules.
Where I wonder, is there a writer behind it all?
Whoever it may, I have my pen.
That’s all I need to create my ideal end.
A pen that can make anything possible.
A world where I am the character of my own.

A Simillacrum Apr 2018
Standing in the bathroom
Between the toilet and the sink
As such the mirror
Between the waste and stark display
Afraid of my face

What's more my eyes sink
Sunken more than usual
Their grasp of differences
Between non-fiction and
The fictional decays

My arm is off and on again
Now product of the medicine
My father and his father and
His father's father made
In sparing no expense

What's more my eyes see
Dot matrix ghosted notes
On patterns previously
Invisible through my
Corrupted nodes restored

Reborn

One thing though that I
Should let the nurses know
I can now transpose
Simple items left to right
On focusing my mind

Earlier I made the toilet
Paper jump between the
Edges of the room
I then successfully
Subtracted and multiplied

Have you ever felt
Like you've gone too far to stop?
What if you're falling?

When you fall deeply
Quickly descending so bleak
Would you climb back up?

Have you ever tried
Climbing atop a mountain
And then miss the ground?

When you are falling
It's not the fall that kills you
It's the sudden stop.
Blanche is the man protagonist of the play A Streetcar Named Desire and a woman who lived in her delusions of reality. She continued to fall deeper into her dreams until a taste of reality made her snap to insanity in the end--- It was her fantasies that kept her sane.

Blanche is also close to the Blanca or Blancé meaning white or pure, basically empty.

In a world full
    of wishes...
Where promises,
are a currency,
     And prayers,
   worth gold:

You would be,
   my everything, yet---

---I would be:
   the richest man
      in the whole **** world...

and for you
I'd still be waiting...

I am a figment of your imagination,
I am your living lie.

Listless little lucid nightmares,
Lost and loveless, I’m here to watch you cry.

Realise your butterfly dream,
Here we’re sinking deep...
Deeper,
Lower,
Forever diving slower…

All before we fall asleep.

Step one, cross your fingers,
Then close your eyes,

Feel the pain, it lingers,
And then it starts to rise.

But before you do,
Just make a wish,
Take a deep breath,
And we'll make it come true.

Tell me your darkest secret,
That's step two,
Show me your rage and your tempest,
So I can take a step closer to you,

Nearer and nearer,
Never farther,
Just laying low,
Another step taken slow,

Step three here we make it faster,
Flashing lights burning brighter,
Careless whispers from the radio,
Playing harder and louder,

It's blinding,
It's deafening,
But they don't matter.

This is your butterfly dream,
And it’s my worst nightmare,

When I’m right here fleeting,
I’m yours to shatter and tear.

I am your butterfly dream,
My chapped wings can’t break free,

And tonight your smile is all I see,
It’s my poison and your kiss is killing me.

Step four when you clench your fist,
Baby, just bite your wet lips,
Cause just as the night is nearly over,
Listen to what remains of my strength,

Your butterfly can barely even hover.

So step five start to cry,
Water my heart you’ve salted dry,
Prepare to say your worst goodbye,

It’s time to let go of your make believe lover.

Give freedom your crippled butterfly.

And just watch me up high,
Higher and higher,
Quickly going slower…
Up, up, up,
Stop.
And then I’ll see your tears just shower,
And I’d begin to go lower,
Up, up, up, stop.
Down…
Down, down, down,
And in your frown I’d drop.

I’m your loveless little lucid lie,
Your butterfly dream,
And I’m here to stay another night—

Until the next time I see you cry.

i wish you’d look me in the eyes
don't even try to hide your lies
i see a storm brewing in our darkening sky

and out of your mouth
spews nothing but hate
if only we'd changed
but now it’s too late

am i delusioned?
am i losing you?
you were faking all along
i know that you knew
quit blaming me when you’re just as guilty too

you rear your head, the thunder claps
time to strike a pose, you've won the match

Fueron más de tres horas durante las cuales me perdí
No pude diferenciar lo real de lo que en sueños percibí
A veces te veía a ti de nuevo, con esa sonrisa
La cual apenas recuerdo pero que me daba tanta alegría
Otras veces abría los ojos y veía allí, en lo alto
Una lámpara apagada en medio de un fondo blanco
Los colores de esta habitación son cambiantes durante el día
Se decoran gracias a las sombras por la escasa luz que se filtra
Esta ventana, con su persiana semicerrada, es mi escape
Noches de tormenta, lluvia y relámpagos, vaya paisaje
Cuán insignificantes son estos problemas ante el mundo
Somos protagonistas de misterios tan complejos como el futuro

Al estar despierto ahora, me cuesta creer que pude perdonarte
Incluso me sentía muy feliz de volver a encontrarte
Sin embargo esta vez tus ojos ni una expresión mía verían
Ahora eres un extraña que conozco más que tu familia
Las cosas han cambiado desde ese último Adiós
Día en el que tu ausencia se llevo toda la atención
En ese momento terminé de conocer todas tus facetas
Me había vuelto un símbolo de culpa aunque no lo dijeras
¿Pero por qué hablo de todo esto si comencé por lo opuesto?
Justamente, ahora que te pienso, esto es lo que recuerdo
No puedo imaginar, ni encontrar en mi cabeza el motivo
De ese perdón que no siento, el que te trae otra vez conmigo

Sé que durante todo ese confuso tiempo lo entendí
Nos veía sentados en el pórtico de tu casa el primero de abril
Éramos distintos, tú te esforzabas en todo momento por redimirte
Yo, en mi frialdad, porque mis palabras no llegaran a herirte
Hubo felicidad, sé que algo así alguna vez existió
Pero mi consciente tus recuerdos borró
Ahora son sólo fantasías de dos jóvenes que creo haber leído
O tal vez en alguno de mis viajes pude haber escrito
No hay detalles, no hay voces tuyas, no hay paisajes en los que creo
Que con un abrazo no habían límites en aquél eterno invierno
Ya no veo el brillo de tus ojos, ni siento la calidez de tu corazón
Terminaron como imágenes que se han perdido en mi interior

Trato de recordar apenas despierto, pero es eso
Creo que es parte de una alucinación en sueños
Me tiene bloqueado si quiero dibujar en mis pensamientos
Todo lo sucedido, mientras más lo intento más me alejo
Volverá a suceder y lo único que quedará después
Será la confusión y posterior reflexión de no cometer
Los errores que me llevaron a arriesgar las amistades
Que puse en juego por defender las falsas bondades
De alguien que no valía la pena tanto sacrificio
Tanto tiempo entregado y parte de la vida de uno mismo
Somos seres destinados a crecer, aún más después de perder
Para superarnos, evolucionar y entonces volver a creer

Es gracioso como a veces me hace feliz y otras me asusta
Que la pérdida de estos recuerdos no me parezca absurda
Es un gran lapso en blanco que revive en sucesos registrados
En las historias de alguien que vendió su memoria por unos tragos
De alguien que creyó en las mentiras del amor y la belleza
Consumiéndose en la miseria de un corazón roto y en pena
Ahora sus palabras se perdieron en los objetos de un desconocido
Un coleccionista de sueños y tragedias plasmados en libros
Es asombroso como me inspiran situaciones de las cuales
Estoy más que convencido de que no fueron reales
Te sorprendería leer que todo ese tiempo que compartimos
Se ha ido de mis sentidos, así como si no lo hubiera vivido
Ese tiempo ahora es un gran misterio cuyas pistas encuentro
Algunas noches, y cuando estoy a punto de resolverlo
Es ahí cuando mi voluntad de continuar en la vida
Derrota cualquier otro sentimiento y me despierta a un nuevo día

Remember:
be sure your sin will find you out.
Place your ear to the ground.
Listen out for shrieking sounds.

                          Remember.
                    ­       Mould a tinfoil helmet
                             and a bomb shelter made from leaves.
                                   Watch the sky for stars with teeth.
