#wrongtime
A universe — the author who doesn’t apologize for the way it decides to write its skies. It inscribes human souls with patient lines, then scatters them into distant rhymes. Stories shift without our say. Pages turn their separate way. You — a line I skimmed too fast, a footnote in a chapter passed. We moved along in careful prose, loved different lines, wore different clothes. Built paragraphs with steady care, never knowing you’d be there. Our wants aligned without demand, like mirrored maps drawn by one hand. The life you dreamt, the one I see, fits seamlessly in honest symmetry. Your hands fit mine without debate — no trembling doubt, no second wait. Just warmth that did not need a cure. We love each other. Clear and sure. But the universe, vast and cold, does not revise what’s already told. It keeps its ink where it first fell, binds us softly in a parallel. It hums beneath what we must do, a quiet ache that whispers: you. Not loud enough to change the end, not soft enough to just pretend. And so we stand beneath its art, two threaded souls kept apart. Two stars aware of how they shine, forever fixed on separate lines. Close enough to know the light, far enough to lose what’s right. Bound by something undefined — written right, but wrong in time.

Separate Lines
We were both broken Damaged And afraid to love again But we were a perfect fit A perfect match To make our hearts whole again But we forced ourselves too soon Colliding our hearts together too fast That it shattered into pieces Instead of taking it slow We only broke it further

Fragile Hearts
Im naked and exposed, My vulnerabilities taking hold. But I have no bounds, I knew this when I fell. For his aura lured me in, His beautiful soul caught hold of mine. For we were pulled together by invisable twine. Ravelled, but I could have broke free. For it was where I wanted to be, where I wanted to stay. Blinded by his memphis, Locked in by his gaze. Just for one sweet moment, be entangled in one anothers love. For love it was. But love it couldnt be. For you didn't belong to me, I had to set you free. The right love, at the wrong time. Maybe in another life you would have been mine. But for now I'll just wonder, I'll wonder what could have been.

A Love I Should Have Known
Sitting. Inside a four walled place building another made-up space where the voice of reality is a background melody as I sing to the lyrics of you from my memory Smiling. Unconsciously I look like a fool directing another romantic film where you’re still meant to be, the one that revives each part of me that has died long time ago in the graveyard of your memory Daydreaming. Writing words I wish you would say and painting images I hope would stay Still inside this made-up space where we move in a very graceful pace towards where you and I are the reality towards creating memories of our destiny

wrong time
Its so hard to be near you when I feel this way Trying to bite my tongue, not let the feelings show But when you come close my heart skips a beat. I’m losing my mind not knowing what to do. Wishing everyone would just stop, leave it all alone ‘cause my heart can’t take this any more. I can’t take this, but I can’t let go. All I know is... It feels so good, its not good, How could it be so wrong? I think back, I get stuck, Don’t know which way to go! I wish we could, I’m hoping we could find a way... Why can’t it just be simple? I try stand, forget it, It’s just so tough. I wish we could, I’m hoping we could find a way... It’s so hard to know where you stand, stuck in this Wanting to love you but I’m afraid of this. When we’re apart, its you that I miss! Wish I could bottle all my feelings, get rid of everything Just stop these feelings ‘cause I don’t want to get hurt Oh, I don’t have the strength too... It feels good, its not good, How could it be so wrong? I think back, I get stuck, Don’t know which way to go! I wish we could, I’m hoping we could find a way... Why can’t it just be simple? I try stand, forget it, It’s just so tough. I wish we could, I’m hoping we could find a way... Lets try and start a new chapter Turn the page, lets start today, we’ll create our story the way we want. Its so obvious that this can never be our life... It feels good, its not good, How could it be so wrong? I think back, I get stuck, Don’t know which way to go! I wish we could, I’m hoping we could find a way... Why can’t it just be simple? I try stand, forget it, It’s just so tough. (Why’s it so tough) I wish we could, I’m hoping we could find a way... I wish we could, I’m hoping we could find a way... Hoping we could find a way...

She was more pure of heart than she let on. More beautiful than she believed. The sun itself would be envious of the light in her eyes. She was a lady of many hats, all of which she wore elegantly. But there was an emptiness within her that's gravitational pull was so intense, not even the heaviest of hearts were safe. She, with the smirk of a fox. She speaks my thoughts out loud, she faces my worst fears, she wanders like I do... "Run away with me", her eyes scream. Her mouth whispers "If only". Simultaneously giving and taking hope. It was a tear in the universe, a glitch in time, a crack in faith. This was not supposed to be. Not now. For her the wedding bells toll. For I the silence of singularity. I watched her eyes start to shimmer, and flood with confirmation. She caught herself, and smiled. "We will meet again...someday." She shouted, as she disappeared into the crowd. It was time for the father, bride dance. As she walked away...I thought, "I am quite possibly watching part of my soul walk away."
