She said,
Falling in love isn't the dream you think it is

Now I'm just stuck with thoughts of being everything in your Knightmares.

It's near impossible to understand something you haven't experienced.

Monsters Under Your Bed

The monsters under your bed didn't leave because you weren't scared of them any more,

They left because their job was to scare kids not one of their own.

How often do we find ourselves becoming the thing we resent?
A repost.

Compromise.

On the days I feel like you should shine more,
I'll bring my darkness.
- B.R.M.

Still figuring out if being selfless is my blessing or my curse.

Admission

I've killed myself a thousand times over with the things I've left unsaid.

Watching some of the things I've wanted most fall into the hands of another so many times I'm convinced it's part of the script.

My depth betrays me. My mind defeats me. But I know it's the only thing that will ever free me.

When you truly want something. Speak up.

Moonlight Bliss

prose #3

stars are scattered on the sky
reminiscing as the time goes by
i smile to myself as i realize
i've been strong after my sacrifice

Something Missing

I saw her again...
The one that could have shown me what love is.
The one who could have put some direction on my lost ship.

But as you know,
Every time I pick up this pen, it's to bleed ink.
When dark thoughts is all I ever think.

To cut the story short,
The ending appears to be tragic.

Don't quite know when I'll experience it but you're never really ready for it.
