fluid
eb Oct 2015
as the night
an endless plight --
too afraid to fight
darkness shines bright

gush and grow
lovers in a row --
fly; fly on blow
hush, hush on the phone

escape every night
get high; get low
a quick midnight delight --
run; *
run on home
eb Oct 2015
long skinny legs
               thin delicate arms
skin smooth and rosy
                                          lonely

  deep-s­et blue eyes
            bouncy shining hair              
lips ample and glossy
                                          grunting

tall­, healthy and fair
bounty, wealthy and rare
studious, smart and sultry
                                      angry

smile, smile, smile
*do you not understand
that is not me
that is all you see

nothing revealed.

Untitled
eb May 2015
When the tears are falling,
what do I do?
When an echo keeps calling,
can I believe it's true?


As the darkness fades,
where will I go?
Since the dawn is breaking,
can I see the truth?
About brands, trends and trending & around two years in the making (12/13/13)

Loss
eb Mar 2015
Not knowing the right words
to express entirely how this feels,
I cry.

In the middle of the night,
as I go through the day,
whether its for work or play,
I stop.

When uncertainty isn't enough,
and every conversation is tough,
I breakdown.

Because there is nothing left,
and nothing will ever feel right;
For I lost,
and I am loss.

eb Feb 2015
We belong in a tiny room inside my heart.
eb Feb 2015
Before:
Let's do this.

During:
1. I am selfish, I say, sometimes.
2. Cake is not enough, I must have tea too.
3. Books pile up on the shelves still not plenty enough.
4. Its me, sitting on the porch
5. The waves, crashing in, but I'm not by the sea

After:
Let's never see each other again.

Morning/Mourning
eb Feb 2015
i don't want this anymore, it begins
I've lost count how many times it has played.
The day just started but I must have gone through the whole album thrice.
Her smile flashes in my mind. Its only a split second but the tears are already pouring
Why does this keep happening?

There are three notifications on my phone, maybe, that will keep my mind distracted. The first message is from my teacher he needs my palette by today and I can't afford missing another deadline. The next is a spam message selling me a car for 5k a month, I delete it immediately.
And then I stop, my heart skips a beat.
For a moment, I thought it was her number.
Why would she message me?

I'm still incomplete*, it ends
The song plays for one last time as the sun peaks through the blinds
and I get ready for breakfast and the long day ahead.

will you be back?
sitting here hoping, no, wishing
i'm right on track
