Lifetime

It's just that, it takes a lifetime for people to find,
What I have found in you.
-Ikigai Poet

You were the different one.

Subtle

From the subtle art of annihilation, comes the existence of manifestation.
-Ikigai Poet

You will learn to create as you destroy.

Fairy tale

If only you knew what's going on this side,
It's so much more than stepping away,
Falling out of love,
Poison, my love.

Forever, we said we'd stay together,
Your warmth, is all I can remember.
We spent every day with each other,
Why did you leave me alone?

How we talked about life,
Not even words are coherent with your feelings now.
Perhaps our someday,
Was simply a code for never.

How easily did you walk away,
Strangely everything is gone.
I can only feel the chill in the air,
My cold heart,
No longer beats to keep me alive.

I cannot read my name on your lips,
I cannot sense my warmth in your hugs,
Words, empty words, my love,
Delusional, viscous love.

You fell out of it,
While I still stay,
That's the tale, my love,
A painful fairy tale.

-Ikigai Poet

Maybe this adds up to something..

Without Goodbye

I stand in the rain,
Hoping that my pain would wash away,
Just like my loneliness did when we were together.
I watched the rain pour down,
As if the waters may give life to my withered soul.

As the clouds rumble,
Lambent lights are absorbed by my senses,
Nourished with the memories,
I feel your presence.
The way the wind caress my cheek,
The sound of the thunder,
Reminds me of our first kiss,
Refreshing, electrifying, warm and calm.

As the drops drizzle down, reinforced by the mist,
My heart feels knotted with doubts,
Insanity and delusions are on the rise,
Are you still the person who
Taught my insane heart to beat calmly?

As the fog thickens,
My vision seems blocked,
But so is the reality.
As the very nature seems to be hidden behind the white cloak,
I feel my every cell die from within,
A feel of isolation which followed me
When you left without saying a goodbye.

Moonlight

It's okay if the sun doesn't shine today.
The world may be just as beautiful
Under the moonlight.

Teardrops

What a dull day it is
Full of sorrow
There ain't no cold breeze
Only more sadness to borrow.
There is a sad symphony in the air
Which I just wanna play
No matter what I think
The sky is just grey.
And here I find teardrops on my Piano
Trying to play some unknown sonata.

What has happened to me
Why can't I feel?
There's nothing to heal
Did I lose someone
Or did I find out my own feelings
Dwelling inside my mind for so long.

My hands aren't at work
But my fingers are,
Playing some unknown sonata
As my tears flow right from my cheeks.

I feel numb and yet I continue to play
Is it enlightenment I'm trying to find
Or is it solitude,
Maybe I am blind
My feelings must be crude.
With each note I proceed
It defines just how I feel
Never ending sorrow
It just keeps on going deep.

I still try to find out
Why am I so sad
And I find teardrops on my Piano
Trying to play some unknown sonata.
