I need to run away, this whole **** town reminds me of you, so I’m hopping on a plane and going to the other side of the world, I need to see something new, to make memories with myself, ones that can replace ours.
I need to wake up in a bed we never shared, baptize myself in the ocean, and when I come up for air, the salt on my face wont be from the tears I’ve cried over you.
I’ll write our story down and leave it in this land of strangers, and hope it stays there.
See I’m running away from you, but I’m running away from this me too!

Mahal,  pwede ba na tayong dalawa lang?
Pumunta tayo sa isang lugar na kung saan mayroon lang na ikaw at ako
Gusto kong lumayo sa kung saan ako nanggaling
Kung ako ay mamamalagi, mas gusto ko pang magpalibing

Mahal, pwede bang hawakan mo ang aking kamay?
Habang tayo ay naglalakbay
Tayo ay tatakbo, tatakbo ng malayo
Yung tipong hindi na alam kung saan tayo patungo

Gusto ko nang lumayo
Pwede ba na pumunta ako sa iyo?
Yayakapin kang mahigpit habang nakapikit
Ibabaon ang aking mukha, at lalong lalapit

Gusto kong tumakbo papalayo sa pinanggalingan ko
Kung pwede lang na samahan mo ako
Ngunit napagtanto ko na hanggang pangarap lang kita
Gusto kong sumaya na kasama ka
Kung pwede lang talaga

There's a storm brewing,
A shift in air quality,
The prelude to a monsoon,
That hush before the deluge,
But this storm is not headed our way,
This storm, his one will bypass you and I my love,
For this reckoning is heading for those who wronged you,
A reckoning, not of your making, but for your benefit,
Yours and mine, let it be, leave it alone,
And let us begin our transition,
They will emerge unscathed, but told, informed.......

Leaving behind a life which no longer serves us, emerging into a new, loving and nurturing life, with one that simply cannot function without the other.

press your tattoos against me
until they rub off on my skin
we have built something bigger than this sadness
drink me in like a well aged bottle of cabernet
you’re my favorite escape from the madness
My heart is shattered.
Everything inside of me is violently churning and I, I am not ok.
I want to die, but I've had to many bouts of suicide that I'm afraid of the fear and how cold and lonely it is when you try.
I wish I succeeded, but it didn't.
And now I wish someone would just shoot me or wreck me in my car, but it's hard to ask someone to **** you.
Funny when you don't want to die, the worst happens.
But when you do, no one will put you out of your misery.
I start college again in 2 weeks, I dropped out last fall.
Now I have a packed suitcase and I plan to get a visa and leave the country,
I don't want to come back.
This life here is too painful,
And every sense is magnified. Sound, smell, touch, sight.
The smell of whiskey when I bite an apple.
The sound of highway sirens like when they came for me.
The sting of blood when I prepare dinner with a knife.
The sight of tall buildings where I once sat but couldn’t find the courage to jump down.
Maybe I should leave everything behind and get out of here.
If I want to die so badly, maybe I should live a little first.
Though I don't think someone will **** me no matter where I go.
Because they know life is too precious,
I just wish I felt the same.

The complexity,  Melancholy.
My life, A fantasy.
My world, imagination.
My time, not reality.

In an universe, far far away.
My thoughts, in the way.
Freedom, from nature.
From world, from hature.

The world, Paradoxial.
The brain, doesn't exist.
The mind, behind.
Controling, the veins.

Stop, said the world.
You have gone too deep.
You need to get out,
Or you will be lost in it's sleep.

But, it feels, like heaven.
On this very small earth.
Went deep, inside,
Knowing very well it's worth.

In a place, free of cost.
Free of will, free of despair.
There's nothing in my heart,
In my soul, to repair.

But the paradox, Remains.
What is indeed real.
Is it me? My world?
Or the place where I feel?

I need to stop.
Please show me a way.
To control, my brain.
Control my very space.

Please help me out.
Out of this place.
So full, of riddles.
A very very big maze.

Once, I learn control.
I can figure out what to do.
What to think, what to search.
Finally figure out the truth

****
Everything is spinning a bit
I’m not even kinda sober
Finally got what I wanted

Ahhhahhha I am so ******* drunk
I’ve wanted this for so long
And I have it
And I’m so happy
This is it!!!
This is what I’ve wanted!
Ah yes!
I feel high
But like drunk
