Don't discard me
like a seashell
with a blemish
yes
I'm cracking
of course
I'm crumbling
no amount of polishing
will sand away the bits
of me
you'd rather not deal with

Again
and
again
I am picked up
examined
and thrown away
always falling short
never the right shade
or shape

Forlorn
in the sand I await
unable to unsee
everyone
but
me
being chosen

One day
as the sun sets
I let myself release the childish
dream
that I was enough for
them
that they were enough
for
me.

Atelophobia: the fear of imperfection. The fear of never being good enough.

my love
please always remember
that even though i would instantly die for you
i will never live for you
related to one of my favorite movie scenes between Harley Quinn and The Joker - "question, Dr. Quinzel. would you die for me?" / yes / "that's too easy. would you ... would you live for me?"
Humo y hojas de árbol
la fogata lejana
desde la ventana
el paisaje morado
con el sol casi oculto.

No te dejare caer
esas son palabras
de mucho querer.

Cuando has quedado partido en tres
te construyes poco a poco
vas dejando tus partes en el camino
vas perdiendo un poco de esencia.

Y ahí es cuando te autodestruyes
por no sacar la espina de un amor
que no valía la pena
te has escondido
de tu vergüenza
que dejaste de
hacer y de querer

No te dejes caer
No es bonito estar abajo
No te dejes caer
nadie te va recoger
No te dejes caer
y si la caída libre es inevitable
mantente viendo al cielo
pero no te dejes en aquel frio suelo
aprende y vuelve a nacer
Ahí es cuadno entendí que por mas que te quiera, y tu nunca digas nada y te alejes sin alejarte, lo que realmente importa es vivir para mi, ya no eres mas el ancla la espina en mis entrañas

No matter how far I go, I d come back to you,
No matter who says no, I ll still belong to you,
And,
No matter what, I m never letting go of you.
Happy year one, for the more to come.

I'll write things you'll never read
I'll express feelings you'll never notice
I'll speak words you'll never listen
I'll portray souls you'll never sense.
The things I do for him and the things he will never do for me
