How can you live like this
Knowing he doesn't love you
Knowing that he is not the one
Knowing he can't stay
But not letting go

How can you live like this
With a family depending on you
But never being there for them
That weight on your shoulders
Never being lifted

You know the truth
Why do you hide it

How can you live like this
All of it hidden
Beneath a lie
Why dont you leave

I'm not a morning person anymore.
The sun shines its light on all of my problems.
They won't go away.
My world is not just rain, it's a torrential downpour.
The one thing that I crave just walked out the door.
I'm surrounded by all my demons.
No matter where I go.
I've moved seven times.
They always find new ways to make themselves known.
They are always there.
Haunting me.
A lost boy.
You were a lost boy.
All those times you felt alone,
nowhere to go, a place to call home.
At night, eyes closed, you kept on dreaming.
Wishing to be away from the reality you were in.

An old soul.
You have a special soul.
You may be young,
Yet there are times you feel so old.
Saw the world differently,
Wise beyond our years.

A brave warrior.
You are a brave one at heart.
For all the battles you've faced throughout the years,
and always ready for the upcoming without fears.
Went through many losses that you grieved,
Yet you're still breathing, standing, and fighting to live.

A selfless giver.
You, who don't give a **** about what others think,
You care about your loved ones so deeply.
You don't have much to give but yourself,
always there when a friend needs help.
You gave away happiness and laughter,
even when there is nothing left for you after.

My soulmate.*
In this uncertain life,
You're the only thing that felt right.
Amidst the loneliness and monotony,
we found each other and knew it's real.
It won't be easy, we have a long way to go,
but it'll worth it so we have to hold on.

...

To the lost boy, I've found you.
A special soul with mine in sync with yours.
To my brave one, you'll never be alone,
carry the burdens and give what you deserve.
When you think you're nothing special,
You're so wrong for you are worth so much than you let on.

I am learning
with your smile
how to be kind
I am following
your footsteps
do not mind!

I am seeing
with your eyes
how to be lovely?
I am rewriting
with your voice
how to talk nicely?

I am melting
with your beauty
and burning
I am walking
on your path
to learn something!

When I love someone, I give up a lot of my time for him. I give up my time to spend the day out together, even if it’s not a big plan or fancy outing. Even if I'm tired as hell, I still would want to see him, because seeing him and being around him makes me the happiest person. I put in a lot of effort into my relationship. I want to make every moment we spend worthwhile. I talk to him everyday and every single time when he is free, because I want to know how he's doing and I want him to know that I'm always there for him, though not physically. I need him to never forget that he has me by his side all the time. Even when he's busy, I'll (im)patiently wait by my phone for his texts or calls, and when he does, I respond too quickly. I give up a lot of my sleep time so I can spend my time to converse with him over the phone until late, especially on days we could not see each other.

Well, I cannot deny that my actions are pretty clingy. But heck, I don’t know what else to do so I could prove to him that I'm always here for him, and the fact that I love him so much and he has to know that, and remember it every frickin' day. I will never change, unless he wants me to. I will never stop, unless he tells me to. Hence until then, I will continue to be this way. And until then, I really hope he understands.

Though I can never buy him lots of gifts, or spend hugely on him or whatever, like how other girlfriends could do for their men, I know that I can give a lot of love and attention that one desires or craves for. Because I am one who needs love and attention, so I know the best how that feels.
Guess I really need to get this off my chest.

You
Decide to start and never stop
And years later
When the memories of life pile up around you
Like the books beside a crowded shelf
You learn to be content with where you are
As compared to where you could be
Because fame is not to be desired
No, fame is to be pitied
Because you didn’t start for fame
And you didn’t continue for fame
And if you did you are a fool for fame
Because you became what you became
Because you already were
You
Perhaps just publicly.... (:

When you swim out to sea and your limbs need a boat
turn all of you over and you'll learn how to float
See the water has welcomed each pace you have made
it is writing your story upon every wave
And when you are ready your book will be bound
by an author you've asked to be part of you now
A Scribe who intends to relay what you have said
or a snipe who's been hiding inside of your head
Hello?

how many hearts
have i broken
because of
my bitterness?

how many soul
have i destroyed
because of
my vengeance?

how many
relationships
have i crushed
because of
my belief
that no one
genuinely
likes me
for who i am?

There was a time when I had it all.
I felt big even when I was small.
In a home on sunset boulevard,
When I had it all.
Mornings on the terrace.
Lunches out on the bay.
Father standing tall.
Mother full of grace.
Never planned for me to live out of this suitcase.
I know in me they had faith.
But lacked it with each other.

   We moved further to the east side
They fell out of love.
Couldn't keep the fights to themselves,
Not even for my sake.
They couldn't rise above it all.
Didn't think of me at all.
Not even the holidays remained the same.
I miss our family Christmas cards.
Portrayed us in our best.
We loved each other genuinely.
Back in the day when I had it all.
