Frost Evergarden A Roburesu Jul 2015

I feel loved when she pluck me
The little did I know
I am suddenly thrown

We are lost love ~
Beneath years of expectation and doubt ~
Struggling against the rubble with the hope to stand strong again ~
Days drift into night and I am weary from collecting moments without you ~
Hold tight onto my hand ~
We will lift these rocks and allow the sun to penetrate the darkness ~
We will see each other's eyes for the first time again ~
We will let go of old habits ~
And start our path anew ~
We are lost love ~
But together we'll find our way ~

unknown

tell you things that shouldn’t matter any longer;

i take comfort
that i could hurt you
no more
no disappointments
and failed expectations
i can most safely affirm
you still remember
i once told you

iloveyou more than my heartaches and pain.

Disappear

Disappear
Into the dark
No more pressures, no more worries
Free of expectations
Judgement is gone

I can't disappear
No matter where I go
Something's following me
With sinister red-yellow eyes
Snickering at the sight of the tight iron handcuffs.

Not allowed to disappear
Those handcuffs hold me still
I can't be liberated
Because no one can save me
From the evil force that

Is

Me.

A little poem about my social anxiety and partial glossophobia.

A PERFECT MAN

All she wanted was someone to love
She had a big heart a good guy would deserve
She needed someone to bathe her in moonlight
She dreamed of warmth in chilly twilight
She prayed for someone to see her beauty
Someone to honestly love her, not out of pity
She wanted strong loving arms to lift her soul
She wanted the beach, a couple's stroll
She wanted to look back at her footsteps in the sand
Wanted someone who makes her heartbeat a band
She prayed for cupid to lift the magic wand
And find her one who'd understand her mind
She dreamed of touring the vast seas and oceans
One to share the warm dawn rays through her bedroom curtains
She wanted her story to flourish like flowers in paradise
She wanted one who'd wipe the tears in her hazel eyes
One who would tell only truth and no lies
She wanted someone to stay by her side until she dies
And since the universe had none, day after day
She wrote a novel and her perfect man was there

Hope

I have to learn
so I can be better
I have to believe
If I want to achieve
I have to look beneath all the lies
to find the truth
I have to spread my wings
If I hope to fly
I have to be a better me
If I hope to live up to my expectations
A young mind filled with so much ambition
But still scared of reality

you have to hope for the best if you want to be successful

Marshie The Mellow May 2015

I expected too much from a prince-like beast

You picked up my broken pieces
I gazed upon your lovely eyes
Expecting you to put it back together
But you dropped and stomped on it
like the beast that you are

Wishie wishie

Am tired of loving small, why can't I do it big
Am tired wishy love, why cant it be real
Am tired of self-dates, why cant I double
Am tired of imaginations, lets have it for real
Am tired of midnight lonesome, lets keep the company
Am tired of ring-less phone, give me a ringtone
Am tired dreamy day, please make it live

Am tired of swaying, lets have a great dance
Am tired of wondering "if", I want it now
Am tired of sitting, oh! how I long to fly
Am tired of whistling, why can't I sing
Am tired of having halves, I want it all

Am tired of missing you, I want you now

Journey through Life

There’s nothing to hold on to
Or things which we can take with us
Fleeting moments of the surreal
We magnify the perceptions as we travel
Nothing more than a realistic mirage
Travelling through the tunnel of time
There’s nothing to accumulate
Our souls are free, without possessions
Do not hold it back with shackles
Time will wither away in an illusionary darkness
We travel with an anticipation of being immortal
Truth is we are always free
Often we have to listen to our soul
Leave possessions behind and look ahead
There’s eternity looking at you with eagerness
