I might have gotten wrong
What you've said, what you've done
But I'm sure you're a big mess
Cause you feel bigger than the Sun

Behind that big figure
I know you're the little creature
Trying to make a facade
While you entertain your mates

Maybe you did enjoy yourself
While humiliating me in front of others
To show humankind how superior you are
If that's the best you get, imagine the best you really are

Well, all you had to do was to show your grace
From the top of that castle to show all your mastery
So everyone would wave at you, in great glory
And all would wonder and be admired by such a phony

So don't worry about me
I'll be completely fine
While you try to be someone you're not
Making yourself a hilarious fraud

my whole life I had told myself, "don't be afraid."
only after some years did i realize how ridiculous
the statement had become.
"don't be afraid."
that would be telling someone not to move
at a punch,
or not to flinch at the heat of fire.
i'm afraid and you're afraid and it will forever carry on like this.
what we should think is,
"i am afraid. but i will do this anyway."
live anyway.

In ten years, I believe my life will be great.

And every day that passes, I add on to it,
Memories swirling through my head.

Dreams of mine are sweet and simple
Elegant, in their own exquisite way
And I treasure them dearly
Dreaming of beautiful times to come.

In ten years from now, I'll be in love;
Not with just anyone, but he will be my
S o u l m a t e
In every shape and form; he'll protect me.
Dreams do come true; I'll prove it.
Everything will be okay, ten years from now.

most people read from left to right, not up and down.
read me from left to right, you'll understand what I really say;
read me up and down, you'll understand what I actually mean.
people are deeper than they are given credit for.
remember that.

He stands at the sideline, cheering without a clue.

A smiley face becomes a sunrise on my screen.

He wears his cologne.

I catch his eyes, when we both weren’t looking.

Each hug lingers a few more seconds.

When I do something silly, a voice, a crazy dance – I find him right beside me, doing the same exact thing.

Conversation flows, tumbling over and over.

Nothing is out of bounds.

If we were soldiers
and our "love" the war
Why, there was nothing we were fighting for
Just empty air
and shouted threats everywhere
with awkward, distant stares

I don't think it's acceptable
For me, myself and I
To form endless tears
Over you who means nothing.
I am greater, stronger and better than that.

Do I ever cross your mind in the wee hours of the night
when all you can do is let your thoughts wander
as your consciousness refuses to drift away?

Do you ever just dream of holding me in your arms
and whispering sweet nothings into my ears
as I cling onto you like a life line?

Do we ever just randomly
look at each other fleetingly

and do you ever just wish that
I would tell you what's bugging me
although you already know
that my silence speaks louder
than my words ever will?

I think of you at 2:13 in the morning
when my eyes are drooping closed
and my fists are curled into my sheets.

I yearn to wrap my arms around you
and lean my head against your shoulder
and rub circles into your back with my thumbs
as you let out the breath
you hadn't even known you were holding.

I glance your way more times in a day
than I would ever admit to

and when you play with your sleeves
while your eyes wander around the space
and I can practically hear the gears turning in your head
all I want to say
is a simple,
"tell me"
