She
She, who has the saddest eyes
She, who can't genuinely smile
She, the smartest but thinks of losing
She, who's thirsty of loving.

One day I woke up
The fire is gone
the lights are out
I can't talk to anyone

One day I woke up.
The world told me I wasn't good enough
all those years of hard work
I thought I was tough

One day I woke up.
The dreams I had for years
was killed by serpents in my head
I looked down at my dream's graveyard in tears

One day I woke up.
Worthless like an empty bookshelf
I can't dream anymore
I don't want to fool myself

One day I woke up.
Uncertain of the road to take
Staring blankly at the ceiling
I can't get up.

One day, I don't want to wake up.
I let go of the dreams
I let my demons win
I quit.

The moon in my hands
Crying for freedom and peace
Let it glow, Let go.

I don't want to go
To a place where people leave
I hate tomorrow.

The poet lives two lives.
One on the outside,
And one in their mind.

When you look in their eyes
You could see an abyss.

If you looked long enough
You could sink into it.

But most people don’t see it.

Take the time to read the words, though,
And you would know for sure.

The poet lives in two different worlds.
A little escape from the madness.
Or maybe, into.

No more fears inside
The sea and I are now friends
Our hearts flow as one.
Found a new friend!

Dancing with the wind
Choreographed by natures' beat
Make a graceful leap
the wind asked me to dance:)
