I was always quick to fall in love

With ****** knees, I would move on to the next, to the next, to the next

“This too shall pass” they told me as a crimson flood left me hollow

Wounds heal, scars fade, and the memories are long gone

But the spirits of those naked nights

Echo in the empty rooms of my mind



I was always quick to overreact

“This too shall pass” I told myself as the water filled my lungs

The burning sensation of the lifegiving salty substance

Almost too pure to exist in a world blemished by ugliness

But still the echoes stayed



I was always quick to fall in love

But for once, I didn’t get up

up above the hill i stand
staring at the moonlight
sighing about how good my life should be

never ending thinking about the past
for i am here
sinking in the world you gave me

never found a way
to let things go
to let you go

loving the hurt that you gave
the scars that i take
breathe me in into dark of the light

for i am here
keep sinking
in the beautiful ego that you gave me
a unfinished binary
the hands of a clock
locked to three
an old music box
covered with dust
a woman folded
into the shadow
broken
or just interrupted

It just hurts because you made me
feel like I did not matter and
what I said was nothing but
words that had no meaning.

You are killing me

you make my heart twist.

Maybe you and I could be "we"

perhaps I can finally be kissed.

This veneer of civilization
So vexatious in its impression.

Words adroit, adept, artificial,
So artful is the communication.

Gestures gentle soft, controlled,
So measured is the emotion

Visage serene, cool, pliant
So unfazed is the digression.

Eyes moist, weary, weathered,
Yet sensible is the suppression.

Thoughts random running havoc,
Yet accepted is the discretion.

Emotions roiling seething simmering
Yet artificial is the expression.

This veneer of civilization
Such progressive regression

You play the role of a happy person
with a smile across your face.
But deep inside it hurts
And your crying out for help.
CataleaLuna Jan 2017
How many years had passed
Since my love has faded
Because of the great pain of our past

There are times that I was thinking
Will my heart can be able to go back  in its previous beat?
If the time between us is evading slowly

Is that so treacherous me the chance?
To let the tears, anger, and pain to be burried
But I can't do anything if Destiny is not in favor of me
All I can wish is to give me the person whom I deserve

I feel like picking up the pieces of my heart right now
While seeing him walking away from me
I begged and I even kneel down for you to stay
But everything seems not enough

Walking here in the pavement
While seeing the Shadow of my Broken Heart and Broken Soul
Hearing clearly the sound of my cries

Teardrops won't stop from falling
Because they're are a lot of things left undone
Words that are left unspoken
Now I am Left Hangin'

Would I still be able to receive the Answer?
For both of us know that you are a promise breaker

I wear your winter coat
The one you love to wear
So I keep feeling close
To us beyond compare
The moment we can have
You catch me in your eyes
That beauty on my pillow
That holds me in the night

And I will find my strength to untape my mouth
When I used to be afraid of the words
But with you I've learned just to let it out
Now my heart is ready to burst
'Cause I, I feel like I'm ready for love
And I wanna be your everything and more
And I know every day you say it
But I just want you to be sure
That I'm yours

And if I've been feeling heavy
You take me from the dark
Your arms they keep me steady
So nothing could fall apart
And I will find my strength to untape my mouth
When I used to be afraid of the words
But with you I've learned just to let it out
Now my heart is ready to burst
'Cause I, I feel like I'm ready for love
And I wanna be your everything and more
And I know every day you say it
But I just want you to be sure
That I'm yours
That I'm yours
