my love, daily,
my daily bread,
falls on my
buttered-side
down daily

my love, daily
my daily dish,
pour over my
flimsy flats
for that I wish, daily

my love, daily,
my daily dial,
pick me mine
pricked up ears
the line is deaf, daily

Please stay alive
For me
Keep laughing
For me
I don’t want to lose you
Like I lost everything
Before I met you
I wrote this in one minute

So much pressure
So much pain
I can’t help but
Feel a drain
of emotions
It’s hard to tell
which words should stay
Unspoken
I don’t know how to rhyme, still a beginner

life was just a game at the beginning
we'd run out and play
we were always winning
now suddenly we lost everything
                                    yet we're still singing
                      singing the same song with a different melody
but the melody changed from  happy to sad

ghost
run
run
towards the sun
a being you can't reach
a being they beseech
yet it doesn't listen
his cheeks glisten
with tears
yet it ignores for years
so run away from it
not towards that ****

"I love you"
such empty words
"I'll never let you get hurt"
such clear lies
" it won't hurt"
it did
they were all empty words
"I hate you"
hah...
that was my empty word
My best fan is the ceiling fan.
It keeps me cool any time I need it.

Of course, he is the only fan I am having.

someone said to me that
depression is like drowning
but never being able to die.

I used to relate to that.

now, I think that
maybe I've adapted
and grown invisible gills.

I haven't been able to swim
back up to the surface,

but now I'm not sure
if I even want to.

air feels foreign
and uncomfortable.

it's easier now
to breathe underwater.
I looked up to the night sky
Because me and you both know how much I love the stars
And I saw your face
Sculpted into the dark sky but lit up by the orbs of love.
I looked up at the sun
As I saw its brightness almost blind me
Just like your eyes did
And I felt its warmth on my skin
It was like your hugs wrapped around my body.
I looked up at the rainy clouds
As the darkness engulfed the sky above
It made me think of the silent tears you cried
And the dark thoughts that swamped in your head.
I looked up at the moon
Oh how sad the moon looked
And it made me realize how there is so much you dont know
And so much I wish I could tell you.
I looked up at the galaxies
And how confusing it all was
Just like us
And you’re gonna think this is about her
But little do you know.
“Space was just one of the many things that tore us apart but also brought us together”
