isn't it strange
how people have changed
but i don't know you to well
so i try not to swell
even when it's not well
One day,
these tears will stop falling.
The well will run dry,
and I will be able
to smile again.

if the reader
falls in love with the character of a book,
their love can be eternal.

he can over and over re-read
each part of his beloved.
he can just stop for a while
and gently touch the mirage.
he can even ****** a piece
and carry it for a lifetime.

but what happens
if the character
falls in love with the reader?
I wish poetry came to me
As easily as a fish to water.
I wish poetry came to me
When I was happy
Instead of when I'm sad.

But I'm not a fish,
And poetry is not water.
But I'm not happy.

So I pick a pen and grab a sheet,
And try to write
Beneath the stars and the sky.

And I write and write about your eyes.

And as I finish these lines,
I realise even thought it did not come
As easy as a fish to water,
I am happy.

And at the end of the day that is all that matters.
When I can’t write
And still I wish to.
Thinking all night
Hoping to see you.

Writer’s block isn’t for me.
But poked eyes, tonight I see.
Paper and pen, Keyboard and screen.
Either way, words fly from me.
There's a point in life,
where you're sick and tired
of being sick and tired.
That's when change happens.
Haven't wrote in  a while. But I've took the reins of life again. I'll start writing, I miss it.
I want to write. But there's something that won't let me.
I want to talk. But when I do, my voice feels empty.
I want to help. But I'm becoming selfish.
I want to be me. But when I was, I would say that I hate it.
I want to live. But for the first time, I just don't feel motivated.
