Demons

I'm too tired not to give up.
I even told myself what should I have:
Space—so that I can breathe,
And peace, for I haven't tasted it.

They told me to sleep,
But I always found myself to weep.
It's terrifying yet so serene;
I was swayed by my friends, demon.

It's not the time at 3 AM
When they happen to appear;
I've been always with them
To ease where I suffer.

Even demons can be friends, too.
They saved me from crying over you.
They were there to embrace me
And put me in a poetic agony.
in the darkness,
there are different kinds of light
.
there are lights that;
too bright for you to see the truth,
too dim for you to distinguish the reality from fantasy.
there are also lights that may burn you down.

but the best of all is the light that comes from him---
Our Father.

Our God

lesson #4 from moth

To be able to distinguish the different kind of lights is to open the eyes of your heart.

i was once a piece
of beautiful paper,
cut into a heart-shape,
colored with red and
neatly placed at the left
side of my chest.

and then you came
with your heart on fire,
i am enchanted by your warmth
that i let you embrace me.
but i never thought that your fire,
would burn me down.

i was once a piece
of beautiful paper.
but now,
i am no more than
a piece of small gray particles,
ashes,
forgotten ashes
scattered by the wind

never to be found

there was once a tree
who refused to let go of its leaves.

there was once a tree
who tried to hold its leaves.

but when the time comes,
when the leaves wither.

there is nothing the tree can do but


to see its leaves
slowly falling down
from its branches.*

understand me.

coz u don't know
what it feels like,

to breath, just only

to survive.

where is hapiness?
where is hope?
what is the meaning of life?
-
every love makes you
forget the word* pain.
every pain makes you
forget the word love

don't lose yourself in
the process of loving, darling.
love can be magical, powerful and wonderful
but it can be destructive.

He's sound asleep
But I am wide awake

The tighter his embrace
the more lonely I become

Trying to wipe away the tears
before the salty, fat drops reach his skin
revealing my darkest secrets

Revealing the loneliness that consumes me

The loneliness that haunts me

The loneliness that fails to be conquered...
even by the tenderness in his eyes

Revealing the loneliness...
that will lead to my demise
