You're not here, but I see you.
You're not here, but I feel you.
You're not here, but I breathe you.
I smell you in the spring flowers on the side of the road.
When walking down the street
I see you in my dreams,
H a u n t i n g me.
I need you, but you're not here.
I'm just hoping & wishing that you breathe me too.

Wishes are like butterflies
Beautiful, astonishing, but frail
Similar to magic spells
As if from a fairy tale.

Wishes are like tears
Uncontrollable and emotional
Because they come from the heart
They are illogical and irrational.

Wishes are like fine china
When they are too much to carry
They'll become broken shards
Reactionary and fragmentary.

Wishes are like the atmosphere
Surrounding me and you
Appearing in the form of fallen stars
How I wish they'd come true.

I raise my hands to You
Shall you grasp them?
I've seen You yet...
Many times but
Still I wonder beyond the highs and lows.
I seek something else entirely
A knowing.
That You are here
That You are with me in this very moment
THAT YOU
Are for me.
What then, shall I do?
I've waited, but not with patience
I've done much, without purpose
I've sought, for my own ends.
What is it you want?
My heart?
Then have it.
Let there be finality between us
A once and for all
Where I give mine and You... gave Yours.
And that's it.
The finality I seek
The presence I desire to feel
The zeal I wish to be consumed by
They are here.
In the finality of Your death
And the resurrection of Your life.

To win my heart you simply have to make it race
Physically or chemically.
A cheap thrill with a lack of grace
Temporary emotions, as my heart runs in place
Fatal exercise for both body and mind
But to me, the risk is worth the rub
Hoping but never finding, a lifelong thrill
Full of grace.
A grace so beautiful, that my heart required no winning.
It is there to take.
She simply has to decide to do so
But its that decision that terrifies me more than any chemical.

I dream of a world, So reachable.
Time passed by, reality kicks in.
What do you think happened
to the dream I'm dreaming ?

What crazy world are we living in?
guns everywhere,
killing anywhere,
Change? Is it really coming?

I met few good people,
or Pretending to be one.
What's so true about this world?
Is it really worth living in?

You are a sky
I know I cant reach,
I cant have
But
The thing that keeps me going is
The thought of us
Living under the same sky
Breathing the same air.
I know
One day
You'll see me as a river
The one that always gaze at your beauty.

Sin
I cry these tears hoping the pain will go away
Hoping they will take me to another day
I was stupid for letting you in
Knowing
Loving you would be a sin

How sad it is to create a world of fantasies
that you know **** well wouldn't happen in real life
But somehow along building that dreamlike catastrophe
you see yourself slowly wandering in a world of bliss
in a world where you are the lead character
and every trees and every clouds are smiling at you
And you know **** well you'd never cry the way you do
no thoughts of quitting
unloving
hating
leaving
pain
it's all a loophole of sunrise
almost ending with a gorgeous sunset
and with you
hand in hand
is someone you badly wish
to be madly in love with you
Everyone deserves to be in a better situation. But sometimes, life is so complicated and difficult that we just settle to dreaming and creating fantasies. This piece is dedicated to a good friend.
