you
millions before you,
millions after,
millions around you,
but you are not full of laughter:

you are full of worry and fear,
because you think the trivia is what matters,
but at the end none of us do
only how we felt in the time we passed through;

so why not make it full of laughter and originality?
why not make it full of ourselves?
why not forget what others think?
why not do what we want in a blink.

its your laugh
i can still hear it,
still feel it

its your laugh
it makes me smile,
but then i get tears in my eyes

its your laugh
i wonder if i will ever forget

i lied,
to you, to them ....to me.
i stopped
the act to rest and breathe
i looked,
deep within ,and saw the real me
i realised,
that i'm exactly what i believed i wouldn't be.
i don't ever want to lie to myself again...but its something i am very good at

her hands shaking,
her voice trembling,
her heart beating faster by the second;

HER HANDS SHAKING,
HER VOICE TREMBLING,
HER HEART BEATING BY THE SECOND.

but she won't give up.
something i wrote in to calm myself down when i was losing control over my body because of my fear

It was a joke
he didn’t mean to lift his hand
he didn’t mean to bring it down

he didn’t mean to raise it a second time
he didn’t mean to commit a second crime.

He didn’t mean it.

But if everyone got pardoned
for the things they said and did without meaning,
everyone would hit
and no one would mean it.
Again, actions speak louder than words, and ironically, that is because you can't say them.
Trust the first fist,
not the apology that comes after when the deed is already done.

you made me bleed,
and that reminded me I'm alive

in my dreams I am fearless
that's why sleep so much.
so stupid but true
