Needed someone to love
someone to hold,
someone to fall for

Couldn't I have told
You, that I wasn't cold
Out of my mold
I could not crowl

Just a little bold
That's what I needed to be, lord
To confront the world

No treasure, silver or gold
Too young, I wasn't that old
To take consideration,
And of your love behold

The world distorting your peace
Your true self I could not uphold

Couldn't you have managed to hold
Hold onto me through madness and massacre

How could I have  believed
We had no enemies
When all I saw was war

Our chances were rigged
Our chances were not ours to deal
Our places were not opportune
Our cards were long fortold

We held onto the unattainable
We fell to the struggle from within

We were fighting hard to rebuild
What had already failed,
Thinking the helpless
Could reverse their inevitable fall

In the questions, desperation, and pondering
No catharsis, no purging, avails
All the true revelations are lost

Only un-resourceful quiescence stalls

Why isn't love= Height!
Distance determines relationshipadvice
advertising
vice
tight situation
If I were to disappear and no one noticed
It means I had never been in the first spot
Prize winner Strontium coloured
Live in two times present and FUTURE-future
Don't let love happen
Make it be lovely
Skin is just clothes for bones and muscles
Don't let people act, Make people are
If life is beautiful, it deserves a nice frame

My life has always seemed and deemed to be,
Something that only peculiarity can perceive,
In depths of cynicism and the focal's sea.
Amid brilliance of any carcasses' pensive.

It has ends, yet begins anew;
With new chapters and fresh start fevers,
Severed with broken shards and dull hues.
To fulfill a worthy journey that doesn't last forever.

A mighty voyage filled with emotions,
Satisfying thirst for an adventurous soul.
Tormenting mediocrity along accretions,
Penchants seeking, making hearts crowl.

It is blissful yet melancholic,
In closets of several memories and faces.
It ends with punctuations with hearts stoic,
Along aspirations and things filled laces.

Punctuations! Ah the beauty,
Memoriam lest filled lackadaisically,
Forever harmonizes serenity,
In a personal mind eternalizing merrily.
Inspired by midnight thoughts.

Today, I chose me
Tomorrow, I will continue to choose me
I am the most important person in my life but I will throw around my love like confetti
Never will I be stingy with my love
If I learned anything is that the Lord is Love, so love hard
My journey in life will flourish with small changes
Rewarding myself will be as sweet as pie. So, let us eat pie
I refuse to feel guilty for any minor or major setbacks in my life
Giving my worries to the Lord is my new version of therapy
Pray often and stay kind in this world
Your happiness is worth it
You got this
