The weigh of the world
Finally took its toll,
On a body so frail
Unafraid of being unwell,

Because nothing is new;
Just a flashback of few,
Bad things of good,
Always two face of a coin,

Because truth is a con;
Surprise— it can be bought,
You might have been told,
Yeah, we can’t be too bold,
Tia Mar 2023
There are too many reasons to die,
Loads of ways to say hi,
Too many times to have time,
See a life come to life.

Lots of things meant to be kept,
In an ***** in our chest,
Fortune to pay to hear it beat,
Don’t throw yours down the cliff,

One, two, three, go be free;
Let go of fear and come to see,
The beauty in the sea
Of wonderful things others live.

Steal and you’re gone to be
In depth of fear, you tried to free,
Put your heart where it belongs,
Then your future shall behold.

Who are you underneath?
Without the eye blinding shirt,
Are you feeling just as bright?
Or a little bit dimmer than a light?

I don't need you to be naked.
Just from time to time,  maybe
Wear your heart on your sleeves,
then we can talk about how life *****.

How things ******
the littlest joy out of us
Now we feel hollow,
constantly in doubt of tomorrow.
Tia Mar 2023
How many lies have I told you?
Just to say I’m fine
How many reasons have I thought of?
Just so I could say I’m okay

Because to tell the truth
I’m not, not really
I’ve been hiding so far up
Behind my own misery

It’s easier to face no fear
To hide the tears
Be at the rear
For my temporary peace

I feel free
Between a cage
Where there’s no place else
But a sanctuary made of firm grills

I feel free
To suppress my wings
In my pre-made nest
Of no possibilities

I feel free
Or at least I try to feel free
Maybe of the world
‘Cause I’m afraid it’ll hurt me
Tia Oct 2022
Every waking moment
My tears are falling
My fears are calling
My soul is crumbling

Away, it is my first thought
Out the door I best bolt
To keep my distance from my fall
It’s certain, said by the painful thorn

Fingers crossed, I can’t be lost
Again, it would be worse
Drown in water I called to rescue
But here it is sinking me deeper in a loop
Tia Jun 2022
The debt of the past
has been paid
I think

I no longer want to think of
what would last
I think

Because time is a lie
Sold to enslave
I think

Ah, to be mind free
Is to no longer seek
I think
Tia Dec 2021
Don't mistake me for love
If I give you tingles in your heart
I am not the one you want
Save yourself from this harm

To see me in your dreams
It is not a sign
Give yourself a chance
To refresh your mind

There is danger in fascination
For people with no caution
So save yourself from the pain
Think not just once to figure it out

Time is what you need
Like a dance, let it lead
Don't just hear but feel the beat
Then you would know what is within
