Some days

Some days I want to travel,
Have an exciting adventure
Unravel the globe real slow
And hold adrenaline in my palms.
Some days I wish i was something
More than this body dragging me around
More than the clothes setting a status
As the gravity keeps me on ground
Looking up to people who only look down.
Instead of the ones who pave paths
Regardless of anyone coming around.

Sometimes I lay on the floor
Mapping out my mind on the ceiling
Only to run out of ink and out the door
then the rain is still pouring in.
Sometimes I get lost in a game,
In a world quite unlike my own,
Where I play a hero and dragons are slain
All in the name of a throne.
Save the world only to remain.
Unknown.

Some days I wish I could be anything
Move mountains in a moment of time
With one arm I could swing
And make this whole world mine.
Seamlessly craft it and watch it with care
In the air, I could watch it be grown.
But some days, like today, I am tired
And would just like to go home.
Save my world and remain.
Unknown.
I wasn't planning to finish this tonight so I apologize for essentially posting twice in a day.

Along the path I have taken
Flowers and thorns had welcomed me
It’s not an easy road ahead of us all
To the day I finally reach its end.

On that day, I’ll lose one of my abilities
The constant reassurance, a necessity
As I lower my gaze from the horizon
A certain light enters my line of vision.

That’s what I think whatever will happen to me
On the day I reach my final destiny
Not that I full on anticipate such thing
But I can’t help but wonder about this upcoming finale.

I
am the crumpled up
rough draft girl
in the wastepaper basket
corner of my mind

she is the file
I deleted
after too many red lines
changed her meaning

this is not my final draft
I will throw myself away
again soon

I won't say goodbye, it will be obvious that I'm gone when I die.
I won't say hello, It will be obvious I'm back, with an empty grave, and me back home.

I'm shutting the blinds
because it's the end of this theatrical
I'm drawing the curtains because this is your final act
and I shall not applaud for an encore
I'm not going back

I will wait and hold on a little longer
Watch and hope this time both can be stronger
For the hell of it I'll give you one more chance
Love you too much to break the trance
The way I'm captured under your spell
Has me trapped within a cell
I start thinking then I can't stop
Done shedding tears for you, not one more drop
I think I deserve truth-you owe me at least that
Love you more than you love me that is a fact
Letting go is looking like the only option left
Solitude the outcome so challenging to accept
That is the last remaining way I see out
Already given too many chances to count
You have no clue how much effort I've put in
If it is meant to be it will be in the end
Until you take the leap and are ready to be sober
The commitment we have in our relationship will be over
It is my life at stake and that's the reason why
I mean it when I swear to you this is our FINAL try..
I'm done with you for good this time
I know I've said it before
But you can't give me what I need
And I can't take the heartache anymore
