Go Ahead
 Dec 2017 Lin

Go ahead, sing your heart out
      from all the pain and miseries.

Go ahead, cry out loud
      to take away the sadness.

Go ahead and shout
      all the madness you have.

Go ahead and live now.
      That's how life really works.
It is may be clichè but somewhat is true that life is not a series of happiness, actually, most of the time it is a series of sadness, madness, pain and heartaches. But after those, smile and be happy and proud that you overcome all of it. :)

You were once
a grand influx of air:

fluffing up lungs,
puffed with oxygen.

But the inhale has
quickly become
a held breath

empty seas
they said
they'd never use me
but they treated me like a tool

she said
she cared
but she thought I was expendable

he said
he'd never tell
but he confessed when I turned away

broken promises
fake smiles
you talk and talk
but never say
anything
close
to the truth
Most of my friends last year were the embodiment of fake, I'm going to leave them in 2017, hopefully.
