beyond infinity
Lunar May 2014
When I look up at the skies
with all their celestial glory
of endless blues
silver clouds
and clustered diamonds

far into the infinite galaxies
where my mind is free to imagine
yet all i could think of
beyond infinity
is **you

monster
Lunar May 2014
monster*
is what i call myself
when i'm alone
when it's dark and late
when the thoughts attack me
when my hands pull at my hair
when my tears threaten to fall
as i scream out and curse your name
ever since my angel left
i have never been the same

an artist's love
Lunar May 2014
beware when you fall in love
with an artist
be it a painter, a singer, or poet

for the artist will
paint you
with strokes and hues
in shapes of every kind

sing about you
with heartbreak lyrics
and feelings which rhyme

write about you
with the simplest words
and a secret message she wants to say

beware of the artist,
and her love
one wrong move
and you're an artwork in her display

889 days
Lunar May 2014
that day in December
my roughest trip started
i remember how we met
i sat there quiet
you moved closer and said
my name was pretty
you left but promised me
next year again
and i waited for 365 days
but you never showed up

until 3 months later
and you almost forgotten
but i sparked your interest
November was the best,
when you first held my hand
and never had i ever felt so safe

little did i know that was the last month
we'd ever meet
and i would be hanging on for
193 days
on a feeble rope of hope
losing grip of myself
while you slowly forgot
how i felt against your hands

the rope snapped then,
but i knew
i was free,
from the difficult mountain of you
i did hurt and bruise when i fell
but those scars only proved to show
i am standing stronger
ready for the next adventure of life
thanks so much to MNA, for inspiring this poem and other poems i wrote. without you and those 889 days, i wouldn't have written such lovely texts. even if we didn't really work out, i'm glad you helped me write a few chapters in my book. i wish you all the best.

Thinking
Lunar May 2014
You are my only hope
The truth that dealt the consequence
I know you don't feel the same
You're sensible but it doesn't make sense
I know I'm gonna weep my heart out
You know I'm gonna try much harder
But it isn't the thoughts in my head
Pulling me under this time
Not my words. Credits go to Ellie Goulding and her song "You, My Everything". Just wanted to share this part of the song to you guys since i totally feel this, and there's no other way to put it.

state of grace
Lunar Apr 2014
'we fall in love
till it hurts
or bleeds
or fades in time'

but i've already hurt
i've already bled
and yet
i'm still hopelessly
constantly falling in love
it's been 864 days since we met
and yet
it hasn't fade in time
based on the song "State of Grace" by Taylor Swift.

tattoo sleeve
Lunar Apr 2014
she wore her heart,
on a tattoo sleeve.
her feelings inked,
all a jumble.
from poetry,
to lyric art.
these words
she couldn't mumble.

eyes almost dead,
glistening with tears,
not one emotion read.
her lips sealed shut,
******* knot,
no words could be said.

she wore her heart,
on a tattoo sleeve,
and this was how she lived.
hoping one day,
she'd get the love,
the same she freely gives.

free fall
Lunar Apr 2014
it's easy
to let your blood drip
to let your tears flow
to let yourself fall
for it feels freely natural
when you exert no force
and yet you end up hurt
because that's how
it always ends up anyway

Lunar Apr 2014
it's this time of the night again
when all the pain i've kept,
all the anger i've pent up,
all the tears i held
during the day,
are to be released,
until i fall asleep.
and i wake up the next day,
seeming perfectly fine
and the cycle continues.

who loves the rain

we can never really meet

unless on a fateful event
when we're destined
to create a rainbow

love the storm—love me more
Lunar Apr 2014
from rain,
should i turn into a storm?
howling like the wind,
making noise,
to get you to hear me?
more raindrops; more tears,
to make you feel
drenched in remorse?
harsher and faster,
much like a hurricane,
to get you to see
how messed up i am?
when i'm stronger
like the storm,
would you love me more?
The second part of 'love the rain—love me'.

the hardest thing for me
Lunar Apr 2014
do you know
what's harder than
crying?

when people think
you're fine
because your eyes
don't look puffy
nor are they bloodshot.

do you know
what's harder than
losing sleep?

when people think
you sleep peacefully,
dreaming behind your closed eyelids.

do you know
what's harder than
living?

when people think
you've moved on,
looking for a new life.

the hardest thing of all, though,
is when i have to go through them all,
but without you.

the unfinished painting
Lunar Apr 2014
we started a painting
when we met.
i was the artist,
and you weren't,
but i was okay with that.
you painted carelessly,
and i cleared up all your mistakes.
it was a beautiful portrait,
and i was beyond ecstasy.
but one day,
i guess you became tired.
holding brushes
and painting in blotches and strokes,
you decided to stop,
you quit and left me there.
i watched you walk out of the painting,
i watched you walk out of my life.
so then, very slowly
i grew more tired on my own.
from colors, to monochromatic.
from rainbow to black and white.
our painting turned dull.
one day, i ended it all,
never touching a single brush.
i never finished the painting.
how would i,
when inspiration is gone?
and only you,
were my inspiration.

love the rain—love me
Lunar Apr 2014
you said that
you love it when it rains.
little did you know that
it rains
whenever i shed a tear.
maybe that's why
you seem happy
even if i'm hurt;
you enjoy
whenever i cry.
and i'll always end up
exchanging your sorrow
for my euphoria,
in hopes of you
loving the rain—
me, my tears, and my pain.

the drowning swimmer
Lunar Mar 2014
im a swimmer
i can float
i can sink
i can pretend to drown
or be a graceful dolphin

but ever since
i met you, another swimmer
i thought you were going to help me
be a better swimmer in life

but instead
you pulled me deeper
into the waters
as you took my breath away

i could no longer breathe
i could no longer move
i sunk in whatever we had
i drowned in you

summer nights
fairy lights
women rights
skinny tights
we ended up with
lovers' fights

plain as day
you took away
a sunshine ray
left me with
no words to say

feelings fade
a girl's parade
to hold her head high
and hide the mess you made

The Lone Wolf's Silencing
Lunar Mar 2014
howling at the moon,
in the deep cold of the night.
the lone wolf lurks around,
expressing its only fright.

it cries out for company,
but all he gets
is the wind.

blood runs cold,
fur collects frost,
a hush falls onto his lips

this is the lone wolf's silencing,
and silence he shall keep.

true love in happiness
Lunar Mar 2014
I just want you
to be happy
but sometimes
and selfishly
I want to be
your happiness

But
'happiness is a choice'
you say
and you didn't choose me

I clung onto the idea
since you made me happy
it would be the same for you

What is happiness now?
where has it gone to?
In time, society has robbed us
the real meaning of happiness

Go on your own way
and pursue your happiness
for your smile, is my smile
your laugh, is my laugh

and I'll be happy
when you find your happiness
because I love you
always have, always will

homework love
Lunar Mar 2014
sometimes you're like homework
so confusing
and i just stare at you
absent-mindedly
hating you
yet you're important to me
it's so hard to finish you
and i lose inspiration every now and then
but when i get high as my grades
i come running back to you

i can't wait to graduate from school
get rid of this infatuation
we would be adults by then
and hopefully this mess will be sorted out

cold stone
Lunar Mar 2014
he used to be soft
and warm was his heart
when all of a sudden
it turned out to be hard.
it's just that,
he's not a block of ice
which could be melted
with an embrace.
he's a cold stone,
and stones can't melt
only chiseled and hammered,
by someone strong and sharp enough.

but i'm not that someone,
even if i am an artist,
who knows how to sculpt.
i'm not to break down your walls
how could i, with you
standing far, and tall?

but how could you be so,
cold and hard,
yet fragile and breaking,
it frightens me to hold you closer
lest i smother you to death

a growing love

you were like summer

you turned into winter
cold
harsh
lifeless eyes

and the seasons ended there
lasting for exactly a year

let go
Lunar Mar 2014
it's not you whom
i blame for my pain
the trouble is always with me

i should let you go
release you from my embrace

since you stopped
putting your arms around me

but sometimes it's hard
to just let go of someone
who was your everything

but so help me dear,
it would be much better for us
if i finally bid goodbye
than for me to stay
hanging miraculously on my own
(j.m.m.)

"Sometimes a memory of his voice or the smell of him would drift in to taunt her, but she stopped turning her head back to what was no longer there. She reasoned and told herself, "Memories can't kiss me or hold me.""

our lullaby
Lunar Mar 2014
please, please, please
lie next to me

i want to feel
your warm breath tickle my ears
while you whisper-sing lyrics to me
i want you to feel
my eyelashes flutter
against the skin of your neck

i want to watch your chest
rise and fall as you breathe steadily
i want you to watch me
dream as i slowly stir in my sleep

as the stars and moon
watch over us in the dark night
where the glow from my fairy lights
skim over your ****** features
casting dark shadows on the wall

the tune you hum
the words of love
this is our lullaby
a scene of my restless imagination.
(j.m.m.)
Lunar Mar 2014
i try to find
those things that
hold me close to you

they hold our memories
and they make me feel
like you're holding me

i'm holding onto you
but i still feel like falling
just like my tears
that i can't hold back much longer
and they fall onto the things
in a paint-splattered manner

  or recalling trips we've been to

     burned right through my skin
      
i wish i could take you out of my mind
and all that happened wouldn't live anymore
  your laughter wouldn't be there
   neither would be the feel of your skin

i wish you wouldn't forget me though
and that you'd miss me by the minute
  you'd regret every moment you left
   and you'll wish you had come back

nights like these
Lunar Feb 2014
i would recall every bit of you
when i would listen to our playlists
or songs which i could relate to

on nights like these
an ache would strike my heart
and i would recount every moment we spent

those times when you asked if i was tired
and you would gently grab my shoulders
staring into my face with your curious eyes

those times whenever we said goodbye
it would always end up with me
being in your arms' grasp

those times we listened
to ed sheeran and taylor swift
and understood every lyric

it's sad how i can't relive those memories tonight
and it's sad how i can only replay them on my mind
especially on nights like these

and the arrow went through me
and tore my heart into two
now i can't stop bleeding

come back, archer,
retrieve your ****

at least i'll be happy
as long as i'm with you

at least i'll be content
even if you show me off
as your brand new slaughter

we fall in love too easily
and fall apart faster
we love too serious
and hate much stronger
we cry over anything
especially boybands and boys
we judge other girls
with one flick of a hand
we eat too much
junk food and desserts
we sleep for too long
and hibernate on our days
we spend thousands
be it on make-up, clothes, or gadgets

all these left us drunk
we think tomorrow's hazy

how do we get sober again?
how do we face reality?

i move closer to the edge
not ready to fall
not ready to break
not ready to heal myself
and put things back in place

with every pull they give
i can't seem to gain balance
not holding onto anything
so i stumble back
not watching where my legs are going
where my feet are going at

someone, let me stand good

all but your voice

i could remember how you smiled
whenever i looked at you
i could remember your strong spices scent
whenever we embraced
i could remember your long legs walk slowly
and i had to drag you along
i could remember your long arms around me
when we said our last goodbye
i could remember how you chewed your food
quick, with pepper and salt
i could remember how you laughed loudly
when you told me i was funny
i could remember your questioning look
whenever you didn't understand me
i could remember the way you held my hand
and when you entwined my fingers with yours
i could remember how you had your eyes closed
when i watched you in the mirror
i could remember you drink tea
and sipping from the thick straw
i could remember you staring quietly at me
whenever i explained further
i could remember your eyes lighting up
whenever you talked about something you love
i could remember the hesitance
when your hands let go of my waist
i could remember how impressed you were
when i drew that dreamcatcher on your skin
i could remember your reactions
and the words which go along with it

everything, i promise, i remember and know
all but your voice

a 'solar eclipse'
when we crossed paths
and i blocked your world

you were brighter than me
with your endless glow
fiercer with your fire

i was just cold and gray
with my pale light
reflecting your luminosity

legend has it
that this phenomenon
was considered unlucky
and i was your thorn
among your rose-filled life

i reckon
you were getting tired
as i stood in your way
and bothered you endlessly

and just like any ordinary
'solar eclipse'
this would all have to end
and it eventually did

what had happened
what we made
may be compared to a fishtail braid

the situation
the mess we made
may be likened to a fishtail braid

just as it takes the braid a few minutes
this "love" we had took a few years
woven slowly, outcome dainty
despite the flinches and the fears

just as beautiful the braid is
our "love" was magnificent
oh! the beauty! with sorrow i'll miss
never desired for it to end

and then it happened; then you stopped
the fragile masterpiece, the work of art
slowly, the plait became undone;
messy. ugly was the result

the smell of rain
as the scent of your cologne
and the warmth you radiate with each hug you give

the streaks of rain running down my window
as those of your tears when i imagine you cry
and when you laugh heartily

the only thing that the rain and your being could ever differ about
is the fact that the rain
will always be there
but you won't

i continued to love you
to the point where it would hurt
where a little pain
in the heart would spurt

one day all of you vanished
and i was left to wonder
what's to become of us now
without you leaving anything

i can't even explain
how hell it is compared to before

i blame you for making me scared
