I am...
I am not a scarlet letter
I am a crimson red enemy
you are a lavender scent
a mint for my mind
a canvas for my ideas
a freedom wall to my masterpiece
I am not a deer in the headlights
I am the cats and dogs gameplay
That is what I am
*****, sit down and be humble
because even snakes listen to commands

Seizeeee. (10-23-22)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
Got me blinded by the probe lights
          It got me nauseous
          But I’ve been cautious
          Got my mind static to see bright flashing lights

          I’m so depressed
          Stressed
          I intake medicine to relieve the pain
          But I’m no longer numb enough
          To not feel the pain
          I know life is tough

          Can’t control my mind
          My mind controls me
          Can’t control my thoughts
          I overthink nonsense thoughts

          There’s an aura before it starts
          It brings strange smells and tastes
          Tingling sensations, a feeling out of control
          It brings memory slips and confusion

          I’m so fatigued
          Exhausted and weak
          Emotional waves, anxiety at its peak
          Fear and euphoria, they both intertwine

          But the thoughts keep racing
          They won’t slow down
          In this storm of sensations
          I’m caught in between

          So I take my medicine
          Hope for relief
          It’s a battle each day
          Amidst disbelief

libel or label
blank slate, they say
but no. life is very much figurative
to trust you or not
just like every petal of the flower i hold dear
picking and asking it to forgive them but nah.
NAH. life is one of a hell of a ride or die with them.
it makes no sense at all. pointless to say.
needless to say that I was unworthy of their accusations
for there is no proof that I did it.
but rather a hearsay by someone irrelevant.
said by someone, i was labelled as a thief for stealing food
to feed it to my other half
said i stole his watch, but little did he know that i hate watches and clocks
another said I stole a muffin, but he did not know that I starve myself to eat and contain only a few
I ain't no tabula rasa for you to forgive me
i was once impure and unclean for you to accuse me of something i never do.

🌪️
I play pokers with snakes,
I play hide and seek with monsters under my bed
I play truth or dare with backstabbers
Well, it is called truth for a reason

I mirror unparallel versions of you, mimicked into one
The deception of the trickster was acted upon by the *****
For them, money is god. For God, you are pulverized— like ***** and Gomorrah.

Forming words like scrabbles is like forming words of questioning abilities
Be it a word or a phrase— make up your mind and lay the tiles on the scrabble board
Like a domino effect, I stack you up and you fall

Pick up sticks, fell down and picked up
But sticks and stones will surely break your bones.
The games of the general or checkers, move for the red or the black one
Bull's eye like darts or archery, you could swing by in a baseball bat.

Knowing a mastermind's mind games is wicked
But knowing your move is like playing chess with the enemy.

Not knowing when he will bite or blow,
Fed by fear and latin prayers
behind the latin prayers written in the red handkerchief

I was wise enough to tell when I let it burn
Out with the agony, with the truth one person tells through smoke
Like this poem, my mind is in scribbles too.
I know someone—a human, yet she moves like a wiretapper.
She hears everything, spinning stories from words never spoken.
Even her son is helpless—
A spoiled brat, untouched by the struggles of life.

She is just my granny’s nanny,
Yet she acts like she owns the place,
Always feeling at home—
As if she were part of the family.

But she shattered my trust,
Weaving lies from thin air,
Telling stories that were never true,
Never with proof, yet full of accusations—
Claiming she saw me steal food or worse,
When in truth, she only saw what she wanted to.

I can't even look her in the eyes,
Not after seeing her for what she truly is—
An untrustworthy woman,
Driven by strange ambitions,
Spinning webs of deception,
As if lies could build her a throne.

And yet, as time moves forward,
May karma write the final chapter,
For even bad bunnies cannot outrun
The shadows they cast on others.

Meanwhile, the mouse is off in the USA,
Living the easy life, carefree and idle,
Leeching off a spouse
Already burdened by depression.

While we, on the other hand,
Struggle to care for our grandmother,
As my mother loses sleep,
Worrying over how to stretch her pension,
While they look down on us,
Hoping we’ll just give up and leave.

inner child
Healing your inner child can be expensive, both financially and emotionally, but the joy that comes with it is priceless.
That moment when you finally buy clothes that truly express who you are, collect items you've long admired, or visit places you once dreamed of—it's not just about the purchase or the trip.
It's an act of self-love, a way of giving to yourself what you once thought was out of reach.
That's why you should try to gradually reach for your dreams and heal our inner child.

Ghost of you (12-18-21)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
They say you cannot be a prisoner of your own past
But mine became a habit to last
I remember when you called me mine
Asked me if I was doing fine?

I bought a couple ring for us
I remember those times we had, I missed us
I still hope one day you will remember me
You will talk to me and apologize to me

I was handcuffed by your presence
You seem tormenting me
It all made no sense
You keep haunting me

But you lied to me, you used me
Fooled me many times
You have committed a crime
You broke my heart

You broke my heart apart
You tore us apart
But I still am hoping for you to come back
To come back home to me, to come back

Now I am still here, here, waiting for you
Dancing on my own with the ghost of you
Reminiscing of our glorious past
Leaving me all alone miserable in the past

I still am, caught in the glimpse of us
Thought I’d die for you, for us

YK
YK
I like this excerpt from the song "YK" by Cean Jr.:

"You're my remedy for all the pain that's hurting me."

I used to believe that.
That his presence was the medicine—
the one thing that made the pain bearable.

But I’ve come to realize something deeper, something heavier:
He is both the cause and the cure of my pain.
He broke me, and yet, he’s the only one I longed for to feel whole again.

When he came close, the ache would fade.
But it was only because he was the one who left it there in the first place.
I mistook the comfort of his return for healing.
I thought relief meant repair.

But healing isn’t silence.
And comfort isn’t closure.
No one can truly fix what they were the first to destroy.
And maybe that’s the tragedy—
that the only person who can truly take the pain away
is the same person who gave it to me.

Questions (01-02-22)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
Why do I keep running away from the truth?
That all I need is you
Why do I keep myself being blinded by the truth?
That all I see is you

Why do I keep myself being numb from the truth?
That all I have loved is you
Why do I keep hesitating to know the truth?
That all I want is you

Why do I keep denying the truth?
That all I am missing was you
And why do I keep hiding the truth
That all I want to be with is you

Powerful. (8-30-21)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
I’ll try to wipe away my tears
And conquer all of my fears
No matter how many times I fall down
Stand tall and wear thy crown

Stand tall and proud
In front of the huge crowd
Chin up and smile
This nervousness will only take just for a while

I am not a toy for you to play and own
Cause I am born royalty to sit in my own throne
I am not a puppet on your strings
For you to do your ***** things

Since I am she
And she is Queen
Since she is me
And I deserve to be my own Queen

You cannot control me
I am my own Queen
I don’t need a King
Cause baby I can do anything

I have everything
I am everything
That you are not
That you are not

You cannot manipulate me
I am hidden and cannot be seen
Cause I am one in a million
One, one of a kind

Yeah, I don’t mind
Leaving you in oblivion

I can just watch you fall
Like a domino tile
It’s a wakeup call
But keep running for a mile

Cause Karma is going to chase you
Guilt is going to make you regret it
Arrogance is what makes you not worth it
Don’t wait for the day that I’m going to end you


I still stand on solid ground
And I am hell-bound
Cause a Queen like me does not need a King like you
So, it means Goodbye cause we’re through

I got my own name
I know I will never be the same
I never play games
Cause I know I can never be tamed

Oh, pick up the cross you carry
Even though it’s too heavy
But start walking again
Even though it stings and you’re in pain

One day I will rise up
And let all the crowd shut up
I didn’t need a pair of wings to fly higher
Cause I was born a fighter

I just need to raise my heads up to the sky
And let them hear my battle cry
No matter how hard we try
I still believe in You and I

You let me rise up
Just to drag me down
You stack me up
Just to let me down

How come you build me now
And destroy me once and for all
And let me fall
But I’m unbeatable, unbreakable now

Bury me alive
I will be back before you know it
Please let me be alive
I will behave like you know it

Curse me on my coffin
Say your prayers to my grave
I’m six feet below my grave
I despise you deep within

Go and run away
Hide where your guilt feelings haunt you
Escape where your conscience bothers you
Go and hide away

Sleep and let your nightmares seek you
Let them visit you
Go and vanish away
Go and stay away

Ocean of Love (94-24-22)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
I have crossed the ocean of time just tryna find you
Yet, here you are, unbothered and unaffected by the things you always hear
“Still single?” “When will you be getting married?”
My apologies for not arriving in your life sooner than you expected
Since I travelled for miles, swam in the vast oceans of experiences before I got here
Not knowing you’d be my destiny
Since now, I already met you, I wish you would not leave me
Please stay, if you wish to leave
Then leave, if you wish to stay
Hence, if your will is never to leave me, I expect you to be together.

never the type
I was never a type of person...
to share thoughts and open my mind,
my wounds for everyone to see or feel
but I was a type of person to hold a pen,
write my emotions, describe thoughts I could not draw

I was never an achiever at drawing
but I was an awardee at writing, speaking...

I was a type of person
who hid behind her notebook,
flips through empty, unwritten new pages
of a newly bought notebook

I was never the type of person
to start a conversation,
I was not much of a smooth talker
only a few knew me,
beyond what they see in the mask I hide
beyond the lies I tell
the stories I unravel

I was always the type of person being bullied,
abused, naive for a fact that everyone understands me
or that everyone is my friend
or that everyone will not spill my secret
As Ginny says, secrets hold power
I want that power gone, so is the secret I tell

I was the type of person,
sensitive and loving
clingy to my friends, supportive to my siblings
I was always the advice seeker
but where were you when I needed you most?
I thought we had each other's backs
but I guess, when I was the talk of the town, you joined the fun.

maybe, because gossiping sure was fun.
I was once the life of the party
but now it feels like my life is a party
a funeral for everyone to see,
hypocrites lined up waiting to see me

I think I like my new name, new form better
Everyone calls me a liar, a thief, a what now?
A devil.
I look, talk and walk like an angel, just like in a song
that I got wise, now I am the devil.
but he never grins or smirks,
I will never forget what you all called me
But I like my name, I think it suits me
55 · Jul 14
ooh la la
How come— he who bends me never broke me But rather, his pleasure is what I desire
I thought it was pain, but when it lasted, I long for the feeling.
I cried and moaned softly— but amidst the push and the pull, I laughed playfully

Repeat.
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
Shattered dreams, wasted life
Life is such a messy but beautiful rhyme scheme
Tucked in with a bullet or knife

Cracked door, wounded fists
Black and white tilted tiles on the floor
Our existence is a gift

Stop the urge to commit felo-de-se in a feverish haste
Life is too precious for you to waste
Hoping if there is a switch to turn off or on
Depressed mode, traumatized all alone

I’ve been in therapy for too long now
Talking to myself somehow
I find glee and sorrows in medications and IV
Been astonishingly reminiscing of enchanting poison ivy

In my deep sleep, I lie in my deathbed
Don’t ever weep
I will forever be in your head

Praying for my soul to depart
I’m not in my right mentality
Been experiencing aching heart, irrational personality

I’ve got swollen eyes
Due to your intoxicating lies
My whole life seems to crash
I’ve had a painful and traumatic past

Later then I realized, arson comforts me
The smell of the black smoke soothes me
Counting sheep no longer persuades my sleep
I cry myself to sleep

My soul agonizes and burns
In the scorching heat of Hell
I hope they wish me well
It is indeed a twisted fate of takes and turns

I once remember when I was still alive and breathing
You were glad of my existence, of my undying presence
Those memories we spent together, thinking

Remember when I took you the river
It made you shiver
But you gently flowed me down the stream
I was glowing, shining bright like the moonbeam

I treated you like a king
But you only treated me like a fool
And you only used me as a tool
For you to get everything

I’m so immune already with your unkind lies
Hence, I don’t know how many more turns do I have to twist
But why am I facing this bitter strife?
I wish It would no longer last

I hope this does not last forever
Yet it melts me right through my core
Oh, is it required for me to feel this every day
It still feels like a daydream

I’m still facing this unpredictable pain
No need for me to repeat it
I know I’ll never get over with it

You line me up like domino tiles
If I’m fragile as ****, I’ll know I’m fragile
Then stacks me up like a deck of cards

As I slowly sink from the depths of my despair
And realize that it’s not fair, it ain’t fair

As soon as you let me fall in one place as planned
Like a domino effect
I haven’t realized about its cause and effect
You didn’t even care enough

But for you, there is so many things
That I cannot condone or disregard

Hope you remember the note I wrote in capital letters
“I’LL COME BACK FOR YOU” haunting you alive
While karma seems to knock on your door
Masterpieces and evidence were all laid on the floor

Midnight love (11-02-22)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
My midnight feels better when you're here with me
Midnight hits different when you're sleeping next to me
Watching you close and kiss your cheeks goodnight
I always loved this kind of midnight

When we never fight but made-love
The way we make-love

Seems like heaven is on our side
The touch is remarkable, unforgettable
It felt like I'm on top of the cloud nine
I was always fine
Because baby, you are mine
Then make me your bride
I’d always abide, confide

**** me how you want it to be
**** me the way I loved how you touch me
All the sweat, moans and gasping for air
Can’t you feel how I care?
I plead more of you, longs for you

I wanna hug you on cold days
Cuddle with you everyday

I look at myself for how I reacted harshly before—
Realizing it took my energy a lot, for many times now;
So, I decided to choose the situations that I should be reacting at—
If it is not worth my time nor strength,
Then, there is nothing to be reacting about now.
Since, it is draining me.
And yet, when you react to the wrongs done to you,
They’re the ones who get angry.

Curious claws digging her own ditch.

Queen of masks—what’s false, what’s true?

Robbed from those you’ve double-crossed and snaked.

Tide turns, exposing inner holes.

U — Universe keeps its tab and time—
Until your fate collects each dime.

Vain woman with a vacant heart.

While Wijo whispers empty pleas.

beware. no one makes it out alive.
how does it feel?
to be played in your own game?
be tricked in your own set of rules
Is it fun to be played? No right?
so why play when you do not wanna play fair?
you do not know the mechanics of this game.
but you seem to act as if knowing the rules by rote memorization makes you win
know the rules by heart and you win.

and so is the game you play.

Giving your needs and wants

I just wanna stay with you
From morning until midnight
Because baby, midnight hits different
We vibe and felt different

I just hope you will get it on right
Be patient with me
Satisfy me and go crazy for you

Let your imagination run wild
I ain't a savage for me to be this wild
But you made me wild
You made me want you

Go crazy about you
Chase you, own you
Make you mine, cross that line

You're the hunter and I'm the prey
It's your vibe that made me stay

I miss ******* you
The way you miss ******* me
I get so crazy about you
The way you feel so ***** of me

I just waited for you to come home
Waiting for you to come home

I looked back and recalled my past
Told stories to my friends
And starts to cry
My experiences in the past
Has given me so much learnings in life
To forgive and forget the past
To never plant anger deep within your heart

Every time I think of all the things that passed
I smiled.
Since I already moved on, embraced the acceptance
And began to change
Cause baby, I am already healed.
I’m no longer in pain.

What you’re doing to me
Will always be the opposite of what you are saying
You bet your heart to me
But you’re not even sure yet

Oh, don’t make me forget
Yes, baby never make me regret

How you mean so much to me
Will be useless the moment I’m leaving
You told me I was your happiness
But why have I felt loneliness?

You’re giving me the benefit of the doubt
Cause you made me feel doubt
If you’re busy to chat me
I will understand

If you don’t have the time to check on me
I will understand

But when you see me with someone else
I hope you understand
I have already loved you less
I hope you understand

I don’t have the time for people who have no time for me
Just because I’m strong enough to handle pain
Doesn’t mean I deserve it
A fracture of my heart always remains

I hope everyone sees
That I am worth it

And now I’ll do what’s best for me
With or without your presence is enough for me
I’m no longer your priority
Cause you no longer own me

With or without your presence
Will make me happier and better
With or without your presence
I don’t need you anymore

Promise (01-04-22)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
Didn’t know when to start telling you
The truth about what I feel
About this enchanting feeling I felt for you
Didn’t know where I began to feel

That it has always been you
That the entire universe conspired to help me find you
Heaven is in your eyes
I was left mesmerized by looking into your eyes

Please love me more on my bad days
Please stay with me before, during and after
My bad or better days
You and me together

I promise you will always have me right by your side
And I promise to never leave you behind
That feeling I cannot explain
And loving you in ways I cannot explain

If I know what love is
It is because of you
If I know what love is
It has always been you

I fell for you and I still am falling
And this love is worth remembering
Oh, the moon in me finds a sky in you
And, the star in me finds a dark in you

It has always been a pleasure to be drunk in your love
All I want is your time and love
I crave a love that drowns oceans
Got me feeling mixed emotions

Both of us are enough in every way
I love you in all ways
You are enough
A thousand times enough

For you are enough for me
Enough to be loved by me
Your eyes hold everything my soul thirst for
Your hands touch every part of my soul I long for

Your lips parted every part of my soul I want to miss to
Your love made me feel the love I want to

I promise to have and to hold you
To cherish and to love you
From this day on and for more years to come
Until lifetime comes

I love you.
To Whom It Concerns—and it concerns you all,

They call me the villain.

Not because I wear a crown of thorns or command thunder,
but because I stopped apologizing for existing in my own skin.
You turned your gaze toward me,
and where you didn’t understand,
you colored me dark,
drew fangs where there were lips.

I once clapped for you.
Laughed with you.
Stood at the edge of my own dreams to make room for yours.
And when I fell silent,
when I curled inward to heal,
you called it distance.
Then defiance.
Then danger.

I watched your words spin— villain, selfish, dramatic, cruel.
Your chorus found rhythm in my silence.
You rehearsed your lines with such conviction, that I forgot the script I once wrote for myself.

Well, allow me to write it again.

I am not the poison.
I am the girl who tasted it and lived.
Not fire-breather, not monster.
But if I must breathe flames to survive,
then so be it.

Yes, my wings are broken— but they didn’t fall off, they were ripped.
And I stitched them back with thread made of my own poetry.
So if I fly crooked, don’t marvel—just know I am still in the sky.

I am the villain in your story because I dared to become the hero in mine.
And I refuse to apologize for it.

If I frighten you, it’s only because my voice has grown louder than the silence you hoped would keep me tame.

With unrepentant breath and scarlet ink,
—Me

enemy
I noticed the drop dead gorgeous stare of a woman.
Was it a stalker? I sense crimson danger in her perfume.
If looks can ****, I'd be dead by now.
If words can stir trouble, your ego is bruised.
I fight fire with fire, honey, I am gasoline
One more light with a matchstick, you end up in flames.

Everybody wants to be my enemy,
Now come to me and I will welcome you with open arms
I sense danger sent by the evil blended in among us
One to be a spy or just a chameleon

The roads I walked on trembled,
Just like you, stuttered when cornered
Let me remind you, girl
I am not one to cause trouble, you are.

I learned to whiff like a dog,
To know who my friend will be
Or who my enemy is.
And you are both, an enemy disguised as a friend.
And I won't accept insults from you disguised as a joke.
Oh, but I insulted you, disguised as a sarcasm.

You lift me up the way I lift you
Together we help each other out
Figuring our way out
Into this problematic world of ours

You know I always care for you
What we had, what we own was ours
No one else would ever come in between
Here we are, through thick and thin

You always had me at our best and worst
I have always found you when you’re lost
Baby, don’t worry, I will always be here
Loving you, even if I’m far or near

You will always have my heart
To have and to hold
Your worth for me was gold
Your worth is more than a 24 karat

I would always want to hold your hand
Never want to let it go
This love may be sweet, salty, bitter or bland
I would always love to have you

This is the best love I have so far
It got me wishing on a shooting star
I may never have anything
But I can give you everything.

pov of the child
I didn’t hear you argue—  
not loudly.  
But I heard the silence afterward.  
It throbbed louder than a scream.  

The scent of your sadness clung to the curtains.  
I knew something was wrong when you stopped singing while folding my clothes.  

You hugged me tighter those nights.  
Like I was your anchor,  
or maybe just your only witness  
that you were still trying.  

Dad came home with smiles that didn’t reach his eyes.  
He called me “buddy,”  
but his mind wandered—  
maybe to her, maybe to escape.  
His shoes were polished,  
but they brought in dirt I couldn’t see.  

I saw you crying once.  
You said it was the onions,  
but we didn’t have any in the house.  

I used to draw our family with three smiles.  
Now I forget what color to paint Dad’s shirt.  
Blue feels too warm.  
Grey feels more honest.

I just want you both to talk to me.  
Not like a child—  
but like the part of you that’s still holding on to what we were.

They say children forget.  
But I remember in shadows.  
Not the slam of doors—  
but how the light felt wrong after they closed.

You both thought I wasn’t listening.  
I was.  
I always do.  
Between spoonfuls of rice,  
between cartoons and bedtime prayers—  
I pieced together the truth  
like a broken puzzle with jagged edges.

Mom, you stopped humming while cooking.  
Dad, you started wearing cologne that didn’t smell like you.  
Small things. Big meanings.

I saw you, Mom—  
with eyes that tried not to cry when I handed you my drawing.  
Us three stick figures, holding hands.  
You said it was beautiful,  
but your voice broke somewhere between “beau” and “tiful.”  
And I wondered…  
if drawings can lie.

Dad, I missed you even when you were there.  
You sat on the couch but leaned toward silence.  
You smiled, but your phone seemed happier than your face.  
I saw the lipstick on your collar.  
I’m young, but not blind.  
And when you hugged me, it felt borrowed.

I hear things in whispers.  
Things like “mistress” and “betrayal” and “I should’ve left sooner.”  
Words I don’t know how to spell,  
but somehow know how they hurt.

I started keeping secrets, too.  
Like how I stopped writing your name in my homework, Dad.  
Like how I pretend to sleep  
when I hear Mom crying in the kitchen.

You both gave me life.  
But now I feel like I’m holding your regrets in my backpack.  
Heavy. Quiet. Hidden.

Sometimes I wonder…  
If I’m enough to fix it.  
If love was ever enough to keep us safe.

I don’t know what healing looks like.  
But I know what hurting sounds like.  
It’s in our house now.  
And I tuck it in at night.

You (2-10-21)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
You gave me limited time
They gave me unlimited time
You gave me love
They gave me lust

You gave me affection
They gave me attention
You showed me love
They broke my trust

But none of those matters
Because you matter most to me

Cause you are my cure
You are my pain
You’re the only reason why I remain
Because your love is so pure

You are my happiness
And my sadness

You are the love of my life
In every feeling of bitter strife
That is what you are to me
For you are everything to me

You are my hope when I had none
You are my strength because you are the one
Now, who strengthens me, who consoles me
Now, who loves me and supports me

And that is you
There’s no one like you

Let God be our foundation
And let’s be each other’s motivation
In my black and white world
You are my color

And days have passed as I have loved you
It has grown so much stronger
You are my world
I hope you feel the same way too

Let’s be lost in our own world
With your hand I’d always hold
And in your arms is where I belong
Even if this is all wrong
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine
Love, you are my unending and limitless
Source of happiness
But I want you to know that you’re mine

And you are the best feeling I ever felt in my entire lifetime
I think about you all the time
How much you mean to me
And that you’re the one for me

I’m yours and will forever be yours
I’ll be everything you wanted me to be
And your 911 every time you needed me
Just know that my heart will always be yours

God knows how happy I am with you
And I will be here to take care of you
You will never feel alone
And I’ll promise to be your comfort zone

Because I am permanently in love with you
I was searching for happiness and I got you
One day, there will no longer be distance between us too
At the end of the day, All I want is you

Our story was written somehow in the stars
Our plans can be viewed from afar
I have asked you to God
And He gave you to me

I guess we were written in the stars
Because you are meant for me

You are my prince
And I am your princess
I ain’t a damsel in distress
And that makes you my prince

You are my everything
That is why you are my king
For you are my beginning middle and end
I hope this feeling never end

For you are my love today, here and now
For you are the love of my life somehow
You are my past, present and future love
For you are my first and last love

I will never keep you like a secret
You deserved to be exposed
How much I have loved you so
How much I am proud of you

Oh, these memories are too precious to be forgotten
You would not be forsaken
Oh, let us not forget
I suppose.

Thank God (12-27-20)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
You are my favorite feeling
That feeling I'm longing to find
You're that feeling I'm missing
That feeling I'll never leave behind

I have come a long way just to find you
I have gone too far cause you're always on my mind
I hope you'll meet me halfway
And I'll wait for you along the way

I'll never want to forsake you
Cause you're impossible to find

If fate and time will only be by our side
My love for you will never be denied
If you'd only let me love you
Baby, I won't let go of you

You are all the thoughts in my head
And all the love in my heart
Baby, I'm yours for eternity
And you're mine for infinity

Ooh, you're always in my head
And you have forever owned my heart

Thank God, I have already found you
Thank God, you’re already mine to keep
Oh, you’re that man I’d always wanted to keep
Cause you are my answered prayer

Thank God, I already found you
And finally, I already have you
I already had someone to call my own
And I will never be forever alone

Come with me where dreams are born
And time is never planned
Come with me where our love is born
And our future is long planned

Take my hand
Yes, I'll take you to Wonderland
Take my hand
Since you're here with me in Neverland

Baby, you may not know it yet
But I have already loved you
Ooh, I already did the first time we met
Yeah, I do love you, love you, oh

We can make it through the test of time
You and me against all odds
As long as you’re here with me
Our future is secured and long planned

For more moments and years to come
You are the one I want to share my life with
For more ups and downs to come
You’re the one I want to build my home with

You will always be my favorite feeling
That feeling I'm always missing

Time once told me, that he alone, is karma
He alone will come along and hunt us all down
He will soon partake everything you did in my town
Time is tired from all of our drama

Time indeed tells when I will be able to forget you
It took me time to realize how blessed I was when I met you
It took me time to savor the love you have given me and made me
felt
I admit it, I was once held captive in your arms and it made me
Melt

Therefore, I conclude, it took me time to digest those flowery
words of yours
It came from that intoxicating and disgusting tongue of yours
Hence, time is always on riptide
My time has come to tell you this from the bottom of my heart
Time is indeed the truth teller of all liars

The universe, the spaces and everything in between conspire
Time always told me the truth you could never tell
Time has always been on my side
In the slightest touch of your fingertips

I have forsaken you amidst the troubles and woes you have given me
You gave me nothing but pain
You gave me nothing but heartaches and misery
You let me slip, away from the tip of your fingers

From every word I hear coming from your foolish lips
Everything still keeps on staying, it lingers
Though it was already in the past, but the pain still drips
It still drips in the back of my mind

Thinking why you left me behind
I wrote you poetries in exchange of your betrayals
I wrote you songs in exchange of your lies
I loved you right in exchange of you, leaving me behind

It’s true when Miley Cyrus tells that “Misery loves company”
But I pity you as I envy the girl you replaced me
How come you tell me things and repeated those mere words to her
You chase me now without forgetting you worship me instead of her

Can you not feel déjà vu by remembering your first compliment
I admire the confidence and I judge the poor sense of character
development
I curse you from now on until the day you rejoice on your deathbed
Get that **** inside your head

brutal loves me
if my sword can only talk, it slashes the hell out of you,
if my gun can only walk, you'd be dead by now.
if looks can ****, you are in your deathbed by now,
oh, how I love to romanticize the feeling of thinking about you. in the back of my mind, I already stabbed you in the back or i already established my plan of killing you.
fatality owns you, brutality is in my soul, it owns me too.

Do you have four eyes? — Oh ****! Yes, I forgot squinted eyes.
You report everything to your mom like you are a ******* CCTV.
Scan my life, since I am under surveillance.
Scan well, fool!
I can be whoever I want in your story, right?
Well, make it sound plausible for everyone to believe in
Try persuading everyone that whatever you say is true
Let everyone witness what your naked eye saw
Is it, now? Is it, huh? Okay.
These are things I have no control of.
I am both the one who tells the story
and the one the story is about, which is which?
Now, let the reader decide.

Leviathan
Instead of leaving the demons alone,
you chatted with them,
befriended them,
and even adopted their ways.

Have you been possessed by seven demons?
how many demons are there in a bible?
many names to call but all of it are associated to you
Sometimes, it’s hard for me to distinguish it anymore,
because you and the devil are alike now.

You speak in echoes now,
but none of them are your own—
every tale you twist
turns truth into tombstone.

Tongues once trusted
became serpents in silk,
slithering through rumors,
swallowing guilt.

Your breath smells of borrowed vengeance,
a perfume of slander
that stains the innocent.

Even silence you defile,
dressing it in suspicion and exile.

I watched your smile warp into smirk,
while your words sank deeper than dirt—
turning allies into antagonists,
as Leviathan danced behind your lips.

You wove falsehood like it was scripture,
casting shadows on every clear picture.

Is this your communion now?
To feast on stories,
to leave souls hollow?

They say:

“Great minds discuss ideas,
average minds discuss events,
small minds discuss people.”

And here you are,
building your kingdom from whispers,
sipping tea brewed in betrayal,
feasting on the names you tarnish.

Tell me—
when did you become so hungry
for power in the dark,
that you let your tongue
become your dagger?

When did you let your demons
call your house their home,
until you could not tell
where you end
and they begin?

Now,
the Leviathan and you are one.

You possess its characteristics:
twisting truth,
breaking covenants,
severing your connection with God.

Your neck stiffens in defiance,
your heart grows hard and cold,
your ears close to the Holy Spirit’s whisper.

You carry its pride,
its arrogance,
its haughty smirk.

You speak in borrowed venom,
your silence becoming suspicion,
your words, a weapon sharpened by lies.

You let the whispering liar
take residence behind your lips,
feeding your ego,
breeding bitterness in your bones.

You think you are in control—
but the Leviathan is dancing you,
twisting your spine,
wrapping you in its coils.

And the worst is yet to come.

Because once pride has swallowed you whole,
once bitterness has choked out mercy,
once you have scorched every bridge you stood upon—

You will realize too late
that the Leviathan does not share its throne.
It devours it.

And you,
in your hunger for control,
will be left with nothing
but ashes in your mouth
and silence from the heavens.

I am. (7-14-21)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
I don’t deserve to be in so much pain
I deserve so much more
I deserve better
Guess all of the fragments remain

I am not like this before
I deserved better
Now that I finally am feeling better
No need to be this bitter

Thou shall not fool thee
If your intention was only to love me
Thou shall not hurt thee
If your intention was to keep me

I ran away for miles
I felt okay for a while
You made me feel temporary affection
But made me feel lifetime desolation

I am who I am
And your love was so much more
A burden in my soul
A sucker of my energy

I am what I am
And your lies were so much more
To reach your goal
Got to maintain this energy.

risky risktaker
we danced for danger,
I thought things for drastic measures
lost my way into the woods
glad I met someone like you—
get ready for it

sang a chorus of songs like a plea for help,
stray me my sanity
but still, I love him
though the forest never promised safety
I stayed

his silhouette flickered between trees
a lullaby and a warning yet I followed

I absorb words as if I was a sponge—
soft, yielding until the flood finds me
and I no longer float, but sink singing

Untitled
The apple does not fall far from the tree, right
And you fall too hard
broke your bones, limbs
I scoffed and smirked,
"You deserved it" I said.
I didn’t notice at first—
how the paper darkened
whenever my mind did.

How my hand obeyed the ghosts in my head,
spilling ink I never meant to pour,
turning every sketch into a dismembered memory
I could not bury.

I told myself,
“It’s just art.”

As I painted a black silhouette,
rope tight around the neck,
calling it “expression,”
but my mind whispered,
“This is how you feel.”

Tell me—
what kind of art strangles you
while you’re still alive?

I drew her lipstick smudged,
eyes screaming for help,
and said, “It’s just a concept,”
but it was me, wasn’t it?

Mascara running at 3 A.M.,
the mirror whispering,
“Wipe it off before they see you’re breaking.”

I painted limbs cut, bones broken,
stuffed her into a bag on the canvas,
called it “creative,”
but it was me, wasn’t it?

Chopping parts of myself
to fit into spaces I don’t belong,
breaking what won’t bend,
silencing screams in the back of my throat.

And when I toast to a goblet,
pour another bottle before bed,
I tell myself, “I’m just tired.”

But the wine is the only one listening,
nodding back in crimson reflections,
never telling me, “Don’t think like that,”
only hushing me to sleep
when I whisper, “I can’t do this anymore.”

I wish I could read between the lines,
match the types, connect the dots,
but I am the lines, the dots,
the smudges on every page I touch,
the type they skip over,
the dot they miss,
the line they don’t read.

So I draw my pain,
sing my sorrow,
dance with ghosts that cling to my ankles,
spin for them—
round and round and round,
until I’m dizzy enough to forget,
because it’s the only way I know how to breathe.

Funny thing is—
the saddest people give the best advice.
They know what to say,
they know the words you crave,
because they crave them too.

They don’t know I say those words
because I wish someone would say them to me.

So when you thank me for saving you,
remember: I was talking to myself.
Telling me to hold on, to breathe, to stay.

My art is not just art.
It’s a confession,
a silent scream hidden in brush strokes,
in shadows,
in black silhouettes.

It is a dismembered memory
on canvas, begging to be remembered,
begging to be seen.

And maybe—
just maybe—
one day,
someone will look at what I’ve drawn
and say, “I see you.”

And I will know,
I am not alone.
A longer version of dismembered memory

Baby, don't reach that limit
Why did we reach heaven
You are my lion living in my den

Why is this feeling keep haunting me
It keeps haunting me
I like it harder like that, like that
I love how you go inside me like that

You know you're the only one I want
You made me crazy about you baby
You got me so addicted to you baby
You're the only one I want

Got to utilize the different positions
Giving you all the attention
Whenever you feel comfortable
Oh babe, you look so adorable

It's fine as long as you're happier with me
As long as you enjoy me
It's fine as long as I satisfy your cravings
Don't worry, I will give you everything

As long as I feed your hunger
And quench your thirst
Our love will never be over
Because I would always choose you first

Give in to me
Lie down on top of me
I just wanna be yours tonight
Until we get tired

Ride with me, dance with me
Bite me wherever you like
Kiss me whenever you like

Until midnight feels different
Until midnight feels different

I just wanna lie down next to you
I feel so tired, so tired
I just wanna be yours every night
Until you’ll get tired of me, me

The weather’s so fine, the ambiance is so cold
You are all mine, now I’ve been told

Midnight hits different
Until midnight feels different
I just wanna wake up with you in the morning
And see your gaze, my darling

Walking with you barefoot
With your hand in my hand
Your wish is always my command
Cause your love can soothe

In all of me
I feel warm, I feel calm
Just give in to me
Until life hits different

Until my love hits different
Until your way of ******* me hits different

Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
What I see is my lifetime paradise
That's what I'm sure of
What I have now is my blessing in disguise
And he's one thing I'm sure of

What we had was a rollercoaster ride
You and I collide through the good times and the bad
I just could not take for granted what we had
You're my groom and I'll be your bride

Baby, you're the only one I want to spend the rest of my life with
You're the one I want to be with
I might not give what you wanted
But I got what you needed

Baby, hold my hand and we'll make it through
Cause I still love to love you

I know what we had was meant to be
And our relationship was tested through time
But the moment I saw you, I knew that you're the one for me
I hope it's your hand I'd end up holding till the end of time

I may not be a perfect lover for you
Although I make mistakes, I promise to never break your heart
With or without my presence, I will always be here for you
But I hope we never part

Your voice calms me like the sea
After a long and tiring day
Your angelic face is all I needed to see
And I can rest my worries with you

In your arms is where I wanted to stay
Cause I never want to let you go
You're that guy I never expected to have now
Now, who is willing to have me now.

Baby, you are my best view
I cannot take my eyes off of you
Ooh, you know how I loved you so
Hey, I got my focus on you

no one has to know...
No one has to know. No matter what other people have to say against you, their opinions never matter. At the end of the day, no matter what you do in life, you always have a home in me, my arms will welcome and embrace you. Keep moving forward my love, mistakes happen. We are all imperfect, still, what was important was you were never invisible in my eyes.

We survive not to please other, but to prove to ourselves that we can do it. That we deserve to live a life independently. We survived long enough to satisfy ourselves. Opinions of others are not required to be heard, God's voice does.

yapper.
We started off as a closed friend, a knitted relationship—
ruined by someone unworthy.
We ended up blocking each other on social media,
cutting off and burning bridges,
If necessary, we will bury everything in oblivion.
Are you not tired of yapping about nonsense things?
Sometimes, learn to work your intellect and not just your mouth, okay?
Tin cans are easy to babble when it is empty without proofs, right?
I thought so.
What were lost from us will find its way to return to us,
When you lost us, prepare yourself
The worst is yet to come
The worst— I mean, a recipe for disaster
And we plan to not come back any longer.
So, I suggest, go home here in the Philippines
Face your son and yap along with him.
Okay?
Learn to focus on yourself and not on ours.
Take note, you are still thinking of what to say
We are already one step ahead of you.

Ciao, Adios!
I am ******* done!
Sayonara!
The scent of her perfume smells like she owns you now
That even wolves beg to differ the scent of each goes by sniffing and whiffing
The lipstick stain in either your collar or tie serves like a masterpiece I noticed but went on with my life

The hickey marks on your neck suits you— she already made a mark of her own territory.
As if not stolen from another woman.
Did you even work hard for that?
Someone else put in the effort, and it was so easy for you to take it.
You used your flirtation—not your brain—to get it.
Hence, you were no longer mine to keep.

How does it feel now?— was it a kick in a chest? Or was it like your heart got a hole and it was sawed in halves.

I trembled in fear and became anxious of what our married life could be
Somehow, I feel like she was already gatekeeping you
A single strand of her hair made me left questioning my worth
At that moment, I knew you ****** up
You got caught but you have the audacity to deny it

Does your mistress even know how your wife always waits for you to come home
Polish your shoe, iron your clothes, wash them and make it neat and fragrant
Sweep and mops the floor, just to make sure you come home to a tidy household
Only to find out, her scent is all over you
Lingering you, feels like holding you

Despite your infidelity, I still smiled and wiped my tears as if nothing was going on
Sighs, take a deep breath, tomorrow again is another day
That even any alcoholic beverages no longer comforts me
Based from the game I play— the character is a cheater.

Waiting (2-4-21)
Eindeinne Moon Aug 2023
Why does it always pay to wait?
If I get all impatient, would I be too late?
I can't understand myself lately
It seems like I want to stay

Fell in love with a man who has it all
Loving me perhaps was his call
Ooh, I would love to let him know I'll wait
No matter how long I would always wait

You are all I ever needed
And all I ever wanted
In this world filled with lies
You’re the only thing that’s right

So, I’ll love you with all of my might
Every time I look him in the eyes
It feels like I love to stay
Every time you look and come my way

You are my lover and my everything
You are my forever king
You are mine and I am yours to keep
That’s why I fell in love too deep

You’re the reason why I keep smiling all the time
You’re the reason why I always cry when I miss you
You’re the reason why I could laugh all the time
You’re the reason why I became so happy every day

Because you’re the one I love
You’re the reason why I believed in love
You’re the reason why I chose to stay
You’re the reason why I chose you

My heartbeat is a melody I always hear when I miss you every day
My mind was always filled with thoughts of you every day
I hope you would still love me the same
I hope you'll never change

Because my love for you never ages
And I will always call your name

I will be waiting patiently for you
I will still love you
And right by your side is where I’ll stay
No matter how long or short the days

dismembered memory
how troubled my mind is? I painted a figure
a silhouette in black
with a tight rope wrapped on its neck while screams for help
her lipstick was smudged
Her limbs were cut, bones were broken and chopped
Into the bag, she went

Talked to a goblet and a bottle of wine before going to sleep

I wish I could read between the lines
Match the types, connect the dots
Draw my pain, sing my sorrow
Danced to the rhythm
Sometimes, the saddest person gives good advice
because they wish they hear those words they wanna hear

peynt.
Did I develop these pictures just to burn it
Write these letters just to shred it
Sang songs during sobriety
Danced on the dancefloor, feeling high
"It was us against the world," what a pretty little liar you are
You left me all alone. In the streets sleeping.

That night, when you drove me home, was it out of gesture?
Or was it the last time you went and wanted to see me?

Because when I wore that red satin dress, you dumped me.
But I strived harder, moved to Harvard to study Law but not to follow you
No wonder a girl like me from sorority
Would become a lawyer someday.

poetry
Well that's me
Telling everybody what they see
That I am the villain they wanna see
I hurrah'ed, applaud for them
In turn, they mock me.
****, everybody wanna be like me
Don't wish, I am just a normal, random young adult woman
With broken dreams, broken wings
Not everyone wishes to see.
Like a dragon, it breathes fire
But me, I breathe and exhale poetry.
