Untitled

Once more let me pull the switch,

turning the wheels back

at a constant pace.

How long has it since then?

When rust knows not how to exist.

Turning back,

Turning with an unseen force.

The impact of my wish seems to grant

the invisible beings

pulling the strings.

Payment upon request.

In life, all is well when

piece is changed with another piece.

And when the puzzle fits

like Jigsaw a frame.

Can't let go, this chain wrapped upon.

This is the deal,

the manual for turning back time.

In exchange for this precious wish.

In exchange for a moment of truth.

This is when,

we should have died

instead of signing a pact,

a contract of no return.

Untitled

Bored with everything I see,

classified, unidentified,

the beautiful, the ugly, the kind.

Which color do I bin,

this trash I kept within.

Do I repent, do I reflect

these sins tattooed upon my back

Sweet lips, coating like honeyed milk

clinging, untainted,

the words burning flesh.

Through the haze,

Through the maze,

searching for the looking glass

if I could just jump through it

without any thought.

Then I shattered, I broke

I reached my limit,

it's time to leave my coat.

Shedding light, shedding in the dark

Stripped naked, encased in a dark shelf

where my bare skin is in contact with no eyes.

Just Yet

Don't go

I need someone to talk to

The things I'm bursting to say

The thoughts I fee l hard to relieve

Like butter flies swarming

And a ball hard to swallow


Don't go

Not yet anyway,

Until I get my daily dose of medication

Or until the clock strikes twelve

Stay, at least until the night ends


I never realized

I kept commanding

Why do you have to go anyway

Here is where you have to stay

Beside me, besides me

The reasons that'll hold you back

Makes a hundred days

Of clearing the scroll


Hear me out, don't go away,

Away from me.

This is where here I am.

So yeah,

Do I have to go over it again

These things I need not say

Until this thirst's finally quenched

Don't go just yet


I just realized

I kept demanding

Am I keeping you from drifting away?

Here is where you have to stay

Beside me, besides me

The reasons that'll hold you back

Makes a hundred days

Of clearing the scroll

Hear me out, don't go away,

Away from me.

This is where here I am.

So don't hold back,

Let it go

I won't let you go… just yet.

Life and Dreams

Everyday, I wonder why

This contains my whole life

A simple shape

This bottle case

Every morning I come and rise

Do these things I couldn't leave

My head is spinning and I can't think straight

What can I say, it's real life.

I can't change, I can't leave

I can't take off, naked without a trace.

But, whoa, it's my life, it's my time

I can sit back and close the lid

Shut away everything till they fly far

Away from me.

And, oh, when my music starts playing

I couldn't help but to come along

Spin round and round

And sleep 'till eternity.

Now I see, then goodbye

This whole mess I can't clean up

A simple word,

That sweeps it up

I can go, anywhere, anytime

Clothes off, running proud

Then, whoa, this life is mine

I can throw things and still be me

Whoa, this time's mine

I can do those things and still be free

Make a mess

And pull up a face

Say what I want

And, oh, this music may never stop

I couldn't help but to wish

Don't stop, don't stop

Go round until eternity.

Still, the music fades away

And it kills to wake after the night…

Gives back this hopeless life.

Don't regret.
Don't think.
Don't let your mind wander
to where it shouldn't be.
Don't regret.
Don't think back,
back to the past where you should've
made the wrong turn instead.
Don't regret,
never ever think.
Don't remember things,
things you should've completely erased.

Where I used to lie

This where i used to lie.
Where I could see the clouds,
hovering above.
Like wings of angel,
like feathers, like dust.

This is where i used to lie.
Where the rain could pour on me,
Steadily. Freely.
Like a warm shower,
on sometime cold.
Like a soothing towel,
on a bitter noon.

This where i used to lie.
This ground, of mossy floor.
Like cushions, like sheets.
Warmed and softened,
smoothed with love.

This is where i used to lie.
Before it all ended,
the same mossy ground
you used to hug.
That is where you forgot to look,
when things around us crumbled to dust.
That is the place, you'll always look back,
with a bittersweet smile that says:
'I'll never forget'

Intersection

You said, we can meet
In an intersection after all
You said, you wanted to meet
Even just once, even in a glare
I knew that we’re not meant to be
I knew that ours was doomed till the end
Yet, for all those times
I waited for you, it was as you asked
I stood here waiting at one edge
On the square of an intersection

The stoplight across me turned crimson red
The color of blood, the color of love
Cars cut and run alike,
Through which the hidden barrier once stood

You said, we can finally meet
In an intersection miles from home
You said, even if we were to meet
It was just once, not even another time
I knew, this time would be our first
I knew, this was bound to be last
Yet, I still came
Waiting for you, who I only saw in still frames
Standing here waiting impatiently, wondering
On the edge of an intersection square

The spotlight turned green
The color of grass, the color of buds
The cars stopped,
It struck me – this one thought

You said, we are to meet
In an intersection where I stood
You said, we can finally meet
Even if you’re committed to someone else
I knew it’s all bound to die
I knew that we’re heading nowhere
Yet, I still came
Waiting for you, whom I knew never lied
Standing here at the middle of nowhere
Realizing once more, that we’re never bound to meet

You said, we can finally meet
In an intersection away from you
You said even just this once
Even though it’s somewhat unsure
I never knew I was deceived
I never knew it’s all a lie
Yet, all this time
Waiting for you, in this sweet time
Standing here in shame, wondering why you never shown
Even just a flash in this intersection square
