All the clocks that are owned
The only time they've ever told
As long as the day is old
Temporary

From the start of the day
Until the hour growing late
The only sound that they make
Temporary

As the seconds unkindly tic
Every minute that we live
Hardly can get used to it
Temporary

With no way of keeping up
This timeless ticking of the clock
Whether or not you've had enough
Temporary

With every seconds timeless tic
Opportunities often missed
In this life that we live
Temporary

I pleasure not
in memory of your kisses
Like sculptures in the sand
a child sure will stay
until bubbly waves wash away
the glorious towers
of yesterday
I like how the beach returns
Smooth again and calm

When you left me
I left my phone on mute the whole time
just in case you called

One year later
I'm still sad when I look at my missed calls
and dont see your name

Two years later
I hope you haven't forgotten my number yet
I still wait

Three years later
I realise it's been a while since my phone was on mute
I finally moved on

My phone is no longer on mute, but
I still am.

I see summer skies
hidden behind
your cloudy grey eyes.
I won't let you hide,
not when rainbows
betray your every lie.

I choose my steps carefully
When I'm around you
If I do everything successfully
I might get to keep you
I've made mistakes before
But I want to try again
I want us to be more
Than just friends who never talk again

I remember the way you made me feel when our eyes collided like a supernova
heart beating aginst my ribcage  
I swear in that moment the world stopped for us.

I remember when I was craving for your love just to be close to you will satisfy my need.

But you see you broke my heart you ****.
Face down in the night
my soul aches.
My mind disconnected.

I remember the way you looked at me when a girl twerked on your lap.
You are a stormy ocean,
crashed into me like a tide against it shore
almost drowning me.

I know you broke me purposely and I hate you for that.
But I hate myself more for still loving you.

The nights thought me the hidden language of the earth.
gnawing of unsaid words loud enough to be heard,
the day thought me that light doesn't heal
and the pain is too real.

The reality is crystal clear, it pierces through my heart
so I drink heavily
until my problem fades into oblivion.

Eyes drenched in tears
nights slept in fears
you left me here
now I'm wrecked and teared

It has been a year and I still remember the way you made me feel when our eyes met, how could I forget?
they say time heals but my feelings are as strong as the first day I met you.

After all of this, I'm still in love with you.

She said;
Once I heal from all these chemical burns
I'll exude forgiveness
You'll be impressed by my emotional stability
And my lack of vulnerability
I'll be such a gentle *****
You lose sight of when our roles switched
I have another dimension to my soul now
All the knives are out of my throat now
All the stories are rewrote now
It's impossible to detect the dishonesty in my voice

"What am I to you?" he asked

"You're a cat. A cat-astrophe. Spellbinding" she replied.

And she was spellbound
the whole time.
