You know we’ve been rich forever In a place where we could pretend Everything else the same It was right And when she smiles It makes me feel so wild out here In a dream where everything you love just has to die It’s a love song now we’re drinking Modelo beer All cops die here

starry eyes
I am missing a large portion of my heart A lot inside that's been slashed apart Forfeited innocence in order to get high Need to understand it Need to know why Need a magnifying glass to see the clues I'm free to find all the ways that before I did lose Thoughts kept me on the brink of drowning every day In the nightmare failing to take me away I ate and overgorged on rich fantasies Like colored candy ingested impossibilities Needed more than temporary flavor Needed a taste I could always savor Feed my demons with an abundance of doubt Awakened in body inside and out Infestation of insecurity Like plankton multiplying Blooming in sea Floor barely visible underneath clustered stuff Ask myself why I don't care enough Brain needs rewiring in the worst kind of way Stopped feeling human Instead a statue made of clay To fix all that is broken is an unrealistic concept Dance around things I'm not ready to accept Cloak my open wounds Hide pain that's only mine to know Pretend underneath is as undamaged as the parts that show

All my dreams are other people's nightmares very unrealistic to anyone, but those people always have *** up for sale because everyone's out having affairs and true love to them is nothing but a fairytale but, my biggest dream is finding the love of my life and all they want and crave is me, and all I crave and need is them to get married; our souls intertwined into the afterlife while my head rests on his chest, I sit on his lap and listen to his heart beat like a drum looking into his eyes would bring me under waves of pure bliss; he stares back into my eyes peering into my soul and without thinking as our souls get closer we kiss our spirits aren't so far away, because I can hear your call

unrealistic dreams
I wish I'd said hello to you at the door, Rather than wait for you atop a white horse, at the bottom of a tower. I didn't recognise you. I've only ever seen you in armour. So that's what your face looks like underneath your helmet. And your hair is curly I never would've guessed. I wanted to sing your praises when you made my heart stop. But all my wide eyes did Was see you pass right through me, Without so much as a glance.

In Disguise
Love you find in fairytales Is falsely portrayed and blurred Knights and princes do not exist At least that's what Ive heard Happiness is a hoax Impossible to reach in chances I guess it all depends On fair or poor circumstances Boasts of castles are dishonest There's no such thing as forests enchanted These are hopeful ideas Well-meaning people implanted A story does fine to entertain Listen closely when I say this; A frog won't transform into the man of your dreams And you can't wake from a coma by feeling true loves kiss

I’m sorry if you wanted something else; A rubber stamp, a milquetoast or a sap. I’m sorry my independent nature is Like giving your face a hefty slap. If it seems I am apologizing for myself To make an excuse for the way things are Trust me when I tell you what I am sorry for Is that I have let this thing go on this far. Dressing up in formal clothes Won't make us into something fine. As long as we believe a fantasy Soon we will cross some kind of line. I apologize for not recognizing the signs That told me how you felt about love. The idea that the two of us are equals Was a thing you could not rise above. You couldn’t accept truth was important And only make what we had implausible. The kind of relationship you wanted Was not only wrong, but was impossible. I guess it got easy for me to fake it And walk around in a huge pink fog, Pretending you were a handsome prince And not accept you were another frog I don’t believe the truth can be hidden For but a very short while if at all. To base a relationship on dishonesty Will ultimately make the thing fall. Yes, I ignored the messages you gave me I’ve been through enough of this to know That I was part of the reason we failed; That this is the way it would have to go. I can’t let you completely off the hook. Your answers to my questions were a ruse. I am not equipped with a fairy godmother. I never had a pair of enchanted shoes. But I was never wishing for a magic life Just a hope that love could turn out real. But one of us can never do it all alone; Half of it will be about how you feel. Dressing up in formal clothes Will not make us into something fine. As long as we believe a fantasy Soon we will cross some kind of line.

i had the sweetest dream- that rain was falling, the sweetest dream that when it ended, i ended. and rain was falling and tears were falling and i was smiling, at all the destruction left in my wake, and rain was falling. that day of my wake i wake up in bed, nothing has been destroyed there are no tears, not at my wake. but it is still raining

dreams of ends
it's as simple as you make it or as complicated as you need verbs and adjectives collide into an information stream perfection in a photograph that I saw while scrolling down wishing our love was just like that with a hashtag that's profound

online truth
I'm not what you wanted, Not what you need, And I guess I could carry on and say it's okay, But in reality, I keep drifting away. You're tearing me apart, Ripping my skin from the inside out; I'm still stuck on an excuse to compensate for lost time. I always knew you were never meant for me, Maybe fate guided us, but your intentions were made clear otherwise. I wasn't prepared for a route to shift and create an unexpected turn, I just wanted someone to stick by my side, to remain loyal and wholesome, But I guess that was far too much to ask for. Given our current circumstance, I probably should've never expressed myself to you, Too blind to even consider the sight of unpredictability; The fact that anything can go any other way at any given moment. I made myself see what I so desperately craved in another; love Now that I think of it, I should've never doubted my gut when it indicated that my ends couldn't tie to yours.

What I've Realized
Have you ever had a dream that seemed so real when you woke up you didn't know what to believe? What would you do if what you thought was true wasn't, and what you thought wasn't true was. Would you retreat into your dreams with the hope of finding a more perfect reality? Sometimes life is stranger than a dream, and the only way to wake up is to face what lies are hidden in your soul. And you can only hope that in those moments of dark reflection, that you are not alone.

Lucid dreaming
"Do unto others as you would do unto yourself." Imagine if it was "Love yourself as you would love others." oh how lovely love would be to finally gain some affection (even if it was from me.)

Be the love you want to receive:
A billion stars shining up in the sky One shines brighter how could I deny Your smile warmed my soul and heart It sniped into my feelings just like a dart When I saw you from the first sight I just felt like hugging you tight Something about you switched my mind You're truly special and one of a kind You're every reason, hope and dream I've had You're the one I trust and talk to when am sad You're the person that I truly admire And the one that my heart really desires Your voice is like music to my ears It's the sound of hope that breaks my fears Your person is what I love the most  When the world was dull and I was lost You were there to support my back It was when I realised what I lack It was the kindness that you showed me That cleared my vision to be able to see

Unrealistic love
You're not gonna amount to anything in life. The dreams you let deceive aren't something you should believe. Nothing means a thing. Everything is just in your fixation of an imagination beyond compensation. "Unrealistic" You should listen, stop the flawless movement of your one track mind. How could you let yourself be so naive? You think you're so intelligent? Why can't you sell it? It's one thing to let yourself fall victim to your daydreams, but it's another to live in the fantasy. Let alone be the only person taking part while everyone watches you lose your sanity. (granted you haven't lost it already.) Do you ever stop to think? (or is that only over the small, careless things) Back to the original statement, do you really think you'll make it? If so, forgive me for saying what you need to see. (in all honesty I couldn't be more sorry, such pity, really) How could you let yourself believe such absurd things? Don't you think you would've learned as the years go? (you're delirious, helpless, you won't make it, but hey! fake it, be my guest)

I'm running out of options and I'm near an end of coping methods
capable but unmotivated, love being different, hate being misunderstood, impulsive long term planner. strange mix of super private and open book. rational yet unrealistic. great at giving advice, bad at following it. arrogant, but painfully aware of my flaws sure of myself, yet unassuming introverted extrovert, rigorous yet care-free, perpetual loner with tons of friends. energetic but lazy, sensitive, yet cold hearted gregarious yet studious, intelligent but spacey, personal, yet detached. unhealthy, yet understanding therapist, competitive mediator. The optimist who just wants to see the world burn. Where do I fit in?

I am a Contradiction.
I just want it to happen Like it's a work of magic. Like some kind of miracle That cancels all that is tragic. A spontaneous kind of thing Without me saying a word As if you read my very thoughts As if somehow you heard. It's a hope I've had all my life. The perfect lover comes along Saying exactly what I need to hear Never puts one foot wrong. Someone proud to be by my side That I never have to show the way And stay beside me as I sleep At the end of every perfect day. Because I can't stand any more Of the things I've had to bear. The many kinds of disrespect And the obvious lack of care. I need that someone special Who has the gift of giving. Who sees in me perfection Your world, life, and everything. I've had too much of the rest The other kind of love affair Where I am just a stopgap They didn't ever really care. The love I am looking for And who you just have to be Is the soul of romanatic essence, Absolute perfection, like me.

MAGIC OF LOVE
You know, I thought I had an idea of love, an idea of things I would do with my first proper girlfriend, and it went like this: Telling her she's beautiful everyday, writing poems for her as often as I can and reciting them to her. Pulling that studying line : where I tell her I need help studying, but all I want is to make out on my bed. Trying to make her laugh as often as I can, just so I can see her smile. Confiding in her. Holding her close when she cries, holding her hand and tightening my grip when she's staring at another guy. Making out with her under the stars, telling her my life story and my daily struggles. Treating her like a queen without expecting a king-like treatment in return. Telling her that I love her as often as I can, spontaneously asking her for walks or dates, just because texting or skype doesn't cut it for me. Teasing her, tickling her, hugging her, pleasing her, kissing her... The list goes on... but now I realise that all this just proves I am a hopeless romantic and that relationships won't be as easy and flowery and romantic as I've always thought.

Hopeless romantic I am
Falling for hyper-fit gym rats. Salivating over straight guys Dating guys who never once Looked me right in the eyes. Much too easy to be picked up, It’s almost like they know I am The perfect dupe for one-night stands; The sucker for the guys that scam. I’ve had my wallet lifted once My car stolen one time, too. I have lots of phone numbers Nobody is connected to. I laughed at all their jokes and I bought all of the drinks, And never once did he seem To want to know what I think. It was all so very mellow, then. I told him my name when we met. But within a half hour after that He forgot it, I would place a bet. He never introduced me to Any of the guys who said hi. There might be other reasons But I think he forgot is why. Once I thought my problem was That I was being much so easy. That good guys weren’t attracted To someone that was too ****** But age and wisdom taught me Being needy is dating poison. So, I’m slowly but surely learning An extremely humiliating lesson.
