The Curse of Distrust
The sound of your voice
as your walls come up
the sacred inability
to fully trust
like words resting
on the tip of your tongue
you want it to come out
but can't quite get it

always moving, dont get too attached.
immediately after i finish a book i have to start another.
rinse and repeat. always moving. don’t get too attached.
i worry that if i don’t pick up another book immediately i may never do so again

if i didn’t fear the nothingness i could learn m...

Dreams
If there's a need to
Wake up from a dream
(If i am in one)
I'll simply close my eyes
And will go to sleep

A chink in the armour
I think I found the chink in the armour,
I think I found your disguise,
I think I found what lies beneath,
The true character behind those eyes.
A slip of the tongue whets truth’s cruel form,
And shows me what had yet been unseen,
The wrong choice of word, adjective, verb,
Makes dirty what once had shone clean.
And with that mistake, a whole character shifts,

Don't fall for someone
Don't fall for someone..
You will always break,
Don't fall for someone..
For yourself not to hate,

Seeing the bright side, it's like butterflies,
But only after hea...

MONUMENTAL
Happy alone although not physically alone
Just two repellent magnets incompatible forces
Fighting to pull closer but no efforts could make the scientifically impossible...possible
Not in those circumstances at that time
The facts were just the facts
Unsigned unwritten laws bound by unspoken pacts
Small print unread but thankfully unsigned
Well technically

My Inferno
That I would hang myself in the sky outside your window
and slowly reach my hand out to the sun,
claiming its fire as my own.
One more bright star in your sky,
a bloody inferno.
So that when you look out,
there is one more small piece of joy.
I am all I have
to give.
