As it passes,
one fears being forgotten
by the one who means most

clinging she was
to the hope that he hasn't
though doubts enclose her mind
she continues to believe
even without guarantee

she missed him,
probably more than he ever will with her
and it hurt
for all she wanted was to be home
in the arms of someone
who
might
not
feel
the
same
You are one of my worst enemies, time. Yet I need more of you.

Oh and all those tears she cried were hers to keep,
The pain she felt was hers to keep,
The thoughts in her mind were hers to keep.

But two people can't keep a secret,
Unless one of them is dead.
She wasn't the weakest,
But the voices in her head
Weren't ever satisfied.

She didn't trust anyone,
She lost all her pride.
Everybody must hate her,
That's what the voices convinced her to think.

Another pill, another drink,
Girl, if you go on like this,
You won't live that much longer.

And even though you won't believe this,
You will be missed.

Come on, you're so much stronger.

She leans
Against the wall
A flower
Wilting
In the shade
He is sunlight
Suffocating
Beneath the
Gathering clouds
So far beyond
Her reach

The heavens
Break apart
When his heart
Becomes
Too heavy
And the rain is
Liquid loneliness
On her skin
Reminding her
Of all the lovely things
They could have been.
The clock is ticking
The commander is calling
At that time,
I really wish the clock will stop
So that I'll be forever holding your hand

We both smiling,
eventho' our heart was aching
In a sudden,
All of the manly man disappear
Again, for the sake of nations we both struggling

You always said it won't last forever
You always said you'll see me later
For me,
Those words repeated every day in my mind
Become the strongest word for the weakest heart

I always remember your smell
I always remember what you tell
Against loneliness,
Trying to lived day by day with memories that you left

Oh again I know,
There's always no good in goodbye
'Cause I'm always back to
The day you said goodbye

She
She was a cloud in the sky.
Drifting, changing,
Becoming and going where ever she wanted.
He was a field of flowers.
Bright, happy,
Giving warmth and happyness to whoever crossed his path.

One day, the cloud and the medows met.
They gazed upon each other;
Traded secrets, traded beauty.
Then she left.
Drifted with the wind.
Found an other feild.
He stay'd.
Waited for her.
Missed her shade.
Was prepaird to even take her storm just to see the rainbow she would make for him.

And she drifted.
And he waited.
I still remember
The time we met
I still remember
The sounds you made
I still remember the feelings that you create
And I still barely remember the things I called fate

Seems the sun is already died 'cause the light get dark and the wind get cold
Seems the butterfly is already gone from my tummy
'Cause I'm lying now, and feel nothing

I used to lying there to look up at the stars
Heard you singing while laughing on phone
I used to loving every jokes you made
Even they not funny but they were lovely
Just so are you that very lovely
I miss you

Clover hands grasp
Temptation a las
Come, my oasis paradise
The blooming golden age
The calamity of beauty
Can you Dream of brisk lavender petals?

My hands covered in sequins
My mouth gorges chocolate towers

Once, the moon set
Once, a bottle collided with the wind
Once, my rope lifted
Once, I ran

Surrounded,
Yet free
My society in shambles
I'm tasting the bittersweet reality

I feel a poignant lover behind me
Blissful hatred - starry night filled with threats
Crowded in an empty space
Shut ourselves in
Distance perceived
My oasis of loneliness perceived
Feeling lonely, yet you live in abundance, love, light, and happiness, you still do you not feel satisfied.

In autumn I found a boy
Who asked me to love him
And said I love you
Only after a party and a few drinks
I was laying in bed
And told my friends about him
They said I hope you're happy
They knew I wasn't

In winter I kissed a boy
Who tasted like alcohol and said
I love you all the time but
He hurt himself whenever I made mistakes
He threatened to leave me if
I didn't do what he said
My friends watched me
They said stay away from him

In spring I spent time with a boy
Who told me it was his way or no way
And when I challenged that
He told me
I love you and that's why I'm doing this
My friends saw the cuts and bruises
They gripped my wrists while I said
I deserve him

In summer I wanted no one at all
And when he walked into my life
I didn't expect to fall
But he kisses like the devil
While keeping all my demons away
My friends held my gaze and told me
Keep him and
Stay

You left me for something

That you used to have and now don’t

You were having temptations for her again

But you don’t realize that she doesn’t want you

The only one that actually saw the good in you

Was me

I was the only one that saw it and wanted you

You would always talk about her love

But you never realized that I was never okay

Especially when you say

“’The one thing I want an unlimited supply of for the rest of my life is her love”

You were smiling and I was holding back tears

But you never noticed

I actually thought I loved you but I was always too scared to tell you

I guess you’re just a ******

My friend saw something about me that was good

They made me go after you because they could tell

I’m sorry if I wasn’t enough but

I don’t know what will happen now

You might as well just leave now

Because the one person that wanted you is stuck here

And you get to leave and you won’t even remember us

That’s too bad because I won’t forget anything

Especially when you call me a liar

You know I would never lie to anyone you told

So I’m guessing it’s just “not worth it anymore”

“This isn’t fair to you when I still love her”

Just go away already
