We're almost touching.
we were walking side by side,
you're talking about cabs in your hometown.
I can feel the gravity of your hand, calling my fingers
whispering "it's alright."

We're touching but not quite.
you held my shoulder to protect me from the passing cars.
and for the first time in a long while, I felt so fragile.
In this world where I find it hard even to breathe,
you believed me.

I almost said it.
All I need is one ounce of strength to tell you every single thing that I have ever felt about you.

I want to find home in your collarbones.
Would you be kind enough to let a stranger in?
I want to seep in your being because I'm cold.
The world is harsh and my cracks are aching.

Almost.

So much love in you.

So much treasure locked away,
Unable to be shared.

Too much love in you.

Too many rivers to your spread delta,
Where you stand bravely to drown.

Immortal love in you.

The gift of a soul,
The truest something.

So much love that you'd give it to nothing.

We too,
live and shrivel
like all beautiful flowers.

The first person we love,
is often the person that
shows us pain.

Welcome to the land of make-believe
where we all like to pretend
that the sun is always rising
and our dreams will never end
and here we are liars
defenders of the soul
believing we'll never tire
of making each other whole
but a brief word of warning,
something to keep you safe
don't let any of us lie to you
and say wine tastes like anything but grapes.

You left me oblivious
We don't notice the seconds
ticking by
Or the one falling leaf
Or breaking heart
Or millions of teary eyes.
We don't notice the feet shuffling by
Or the words we can't hear.
We are oblivious to love.
There is someone out there,
Who, like you, is searching
And waiting for the one second
Where the oblivion stops.
A black hole eats me up
Swallowing me whole
Memories of me fading
Like I never existed at all.
Every thin strip of me
Erased in this world
I am nothing now but a wanderer
With no heart and soul.

The way you love
shows you've been
taken for granted
one too many times.

Everyone searches
never everyone finds
Everyone fights
never everyone survives
This was not never ending
Cause we're both too young
To give into forever
Trying to fit a larger than life figure.

You surely are mistaken
You've never felt love
Let me tell you why
It's just a fantasy
You're running on empty
And empty is all you can give.

I never belonged in you
I'm just a chapter that's about to end
Or maybe not a chapter at all
Leaving the hurt behind
But you are a closed chapter
The book I could not complete.

Your invisible care left me cold
Closed to the universe around you
Begging to be seen through your eyes
Yet your eyes remained closed
As did your heart.

For I am nothing and so is my heart
Feeling the emptiness' burst
In almost every moment
Leaving me in broken peace
Shattered the master piece
Take my heart
For it was not mine anymore
Let me be just empty
Cold, dark, numb and closed.
