She told me,
'Let's go to heaven
For the hell of it'
As she was smiling
To the starry sky
So benevolent.

Irrelevant when I
Couldn't see her eyes
Set on tomorrow,
But it was just her
Imacable positivity
That had killed my
Pessimistic sorrow.

Because in a universe
That's filled with meteorites
And other cosmic debris,
We're just bright stars
Shooting for something
Further than the moon.*

- (A.F)
For the ones that
worry about the future.

We're separated by illusions
united by our flaws,
a doubtful optimistic thinking
that the future might be lost.
I'm calling out to god,
please help this lost sheep
deal with his run away thoughts.
Ovid Dec 2014
"I don't know" are your favourite words
Your mind is made up of paths you're not sure of
Your body language is always foreign

Why can't you just be someone who knows who they are?
Attention is all you ever wanted
Just look at the aching hands that write of your aching heart
Alone you feel because you don't surround yourself with those who've been with you since the start
Make ties with people instead of being a stubborn unlaced shoe
You're the only one accountable for what you do

Grow up and be an open book
Don't push away everyone just because they want to take a look
Just look at the aching hands that write of your aching heart

Maybe I don't have a mind,
but at least I'm not crazy.

I fallen so many times,
so I'm so experienced.

I've been cheated and left behind;
I know my friends and enemies.

I hear the echos of memories;
they see how far I've come.
So I know I've come so far.

Don't have a lot of friends,
so music's number 1.

Would **** for solitude,
but then where is the fun.

Maybe it's complicated,
but that makes an adventure.

Sometimes the darkest times,
are ones we gladly venture.

Optimist living for a life we understand. We were never idiots; we have the upper-hand. Notice their all falling down the depths of agony, but we optimist live strong, proud, and free.

I've had my eyes on you
Don't ask how long
I just know you've got it all wrong
I can see in your eyes
You use your smile as a disguise
In every congratulatory gesture you make there's a cry for help
Yet you don't let anyone know your true self
Run away or learn from your past
Hide your demons with a laugh
Why let yourself long for breath when there's a hand to pull you out of your suffocating bath?
Trust is a knife you sharpen with every word
I promise this blade we hold will not dig into your back
Ovid Nov 2014
All ears I've been all this time
Talking from pm to the am by your side
How I really am I always hide
You never know how my day has been because you never asked
Don't you think it's hard for me sometimes as much as you to do simple tasks
You cry, moan and sulk screaming you're all alone
I'm not down with that insult so I'll put down the phone

When you pushed everyone away because you're scared of letting people be too close
Just know the loneliness is something you chose
Just know the solitude you're in isn't because of who you are but what you have done
Never letting anyone in will be your biggest regret
You can't sleep at night because  pillow is wet
Just know it's because you're scared of being hurt while you're always wounded

Autumn please wake up, your day awaits
You can't even open the curtains in your room because you're so ashamed of your face
Just know your looks will be a problem the real world will soon replace

When the mirror taunts when you don't have on artificial loveliness
Rememver Humans are like butterflies that can never see the beauty of their wings
Look down at your hands and arms that made your shadow your only company
Get out of the dark to come find me
Ovid Nov 2014
You have your friends
I have my dreams
I hope you follow yours while I'm in my nightmares sound asleep
Don't look back
Promise you'll forget all about me
Don't feel bad because in time I'll get over how you've made me happy
You deserve the world, that's impossible for me to give
You were my world and I need to find another galaxy

When the sun goes down
I'll still be awake
Drowning myself in my mind to accept and make sense of this agonizing heart ache
Don't look back

I'm glad we crossed paths
I'm glad you're flying away to do more than you ever could in this town in the east
When I cross your mind
Remember that I wouldn't have wanted things to go any other way
