CRY

Cried a river 

Tired my soul

To fall asleep wilder and senseless

I haven’t cried for a dead so loud

For you, I had cried louder to foster waves and pull you toward my shore

My love wasn’t weak

To not show you how much my weakness 

So many times

Not enough for you to turn back your boat

 

Tears drenched me 

Yet my eyes wouldn’t pity me 

I would reach out to you i...

It was the alcohol

Blurry gaze

As you wiped my tears with your firm palm

Assured me that you'll be there

"We'll be there"

However, you've never been interested in my story

All I've ever done is vomited them

When I'm not certain of how much I had to drink

You have listened or you have nodded your head

As my eyes were open and you didn't want to seem uninterested  

Probably my words were jus...

House of Love

I'm glad that you walked out of that house

That House of Love,

I had believed you would never forsake

Must have felt liberating, leaving me shaken 

Abandoning my warm grip to hold your own

 

The emotional tides that came as you left were overpowering

Left me stranded and weeping 

Could reach you anytime

Had believed in our love that would stitch us close

Closer than b...

Dancing

I am dancing alone

Around silence

The rushing beats of my heart

The only noise matching the steps of my feet along

My feet are cold

It must be the marble floor, 

numb cold

Despite the hours, my feet have clung on

Oh! It must be my soul,

dead long ago 

I am still dancing alone, 

continuous

The cruel mirror in front of me 

Standing and showing me the tears

It

Is it fair to not feel normal? 
After 18 years of living sanely?
Am I the one responsible for all this?
Is it here to settle in me?
Is it here to make me fall?
These days it is keeping me awake 
At 3 am, I am feeling restless 
These days I feel like giving up more
Three pairs of eyes stop me though
The feeling is something I have never felt
It is not beautiful 
It is selfish, not wantin...

sailing

Your heart is in my hand

I have been holding it for too long

It is telling me to hold on one more time

For little long

Coming time, not sure 

It will mend the broken pieces 

To start a new story of love 

It's my expectation 

Not sure it will turn into reality 

But I will say it out loud 

I don't want it 

The broken pieces have formed a heart itself 

A heart of s...

a story

Took me a week to realize 

That you were different 

A sad different to me 

Was it the new place?

The new place where you finally felt at liberty 

Or 

The new place where I wasn't with you

Was it those new faces?

Those new faces that made you curious

Or 

Those new faces that distracted you from me 

I tried not to freak out

I calmed and confronted myself almost ev...

.

I thought I was getting better 

I thought I had become stronger

But last night I cried 

I cried because of you 

But 

I kept my promise because I didn't cry for you 

Every night, when I am putting myself to sleep

Our moments crosses my thoughts

I don't blush 

I don't smile

I think of something else

And I wish I could omit everything from my mind

Timing

When I was 14 
I made a mess
Stumbled upon a guy
But later fixed my eyes on him
Wasnt long enough
I build up a fantasy inside my head
That killed me every time I saw him
Adrenaline rush but crunched emotions
We were holding hands, in my imaginations
Never had a word in person 
That chapter closed
I myself wreaked my heart with gruesome expectations
I am 18 
But I made a mess
Love con...

Or

In the earliest, 

We thought of excuses to talk 

Both of them waiting for a 'hi' to pop up

Shyness turned to comfort

When conversation continued from one day to another

'Bye' in the conversation was on a verge of extinction

Nights turned longest 

When they learned about each other more, at around 2 am

They were no longer strangers

But they didn't call themselves lovers

Your Words

"I love you"

Three words with pure feelings 

Words kept us alive 

Words showed affection 

Baby, your name was my word

The word 'love' was you 

You were my world 

But 

Your words were hell for me

Unexpected from your mouth

Stung my heart deep

I wish I never heard it 

I wish you never uttered it

Your words have made me doubt myself

Your words have made me fe...
