Our imprints washed by sea,
You’re no longer my reason to breathe,
We were nothing/ but extraordinary.
Phosphorescent banners placed at sea,
Maybe it is for you to see,
Dredging efforts for your sentimentality.
Be kind.
Be grateful for what you have.
Be soft.
Be helpful because maybe you might be the only one who’d help that one person who deserves it but is afraid to ask.
Be down to earth. Stretch out your hand to everyone who needs to get out of the pit of their problems,
even if it leaves you weary and with scars and bruises.
Love unconditionally.
Do everything expecting nothing in return. Do it cause you love to do it. Stop wasting time with technology, spend it with people who matter and who love and care about you so much.
Even if you’re going through a lot, hold on, things will get better. Somebody will to be your shoulder. Maybe not at the moment. But somebody’s bound to come for you. Always hope.
Never lose hope.
Make your family proud.
Do what you have to do now.
Don’t let go of the people who mean the most to you. But know when to let go, if ever it gets to that point when you just know if you hold on, it’s only going to get toxic.
Do not be egoistic. People are more important than your ego.
Apologise.
Express gratitude.
Relationships are based on small things beside the other things.
Live in the now.
While envisioning your future.
Be passionate. Literally and figuratively.
Never give up on your dreams, no matter what others say.
If it matters to you, it matters.
Forgive.
They’re all human beings flawed, vulnerable, majastic capable of making mistakes just like you do.
Understand.
Don’t let the world change you, don’t be what the world expects you to be. Be want you want to be.
Don’t forget to love yourself.
Love.
Be selfless.
Be grateful everyday.
Today.
Today is one of those days i self introspect a lot more than usual.
Today is one of those days when every nook and corner of every unpleasant memory is revisitied.
Today is one of those days when my anxiety is on magic mushrooms, it causes me to question my life and if anyone ever likes me at all.
Today is one of those days if there was a hypothetical situation where I had to fight for my life to survive, I’d rather just give up.
Today is one of those days in the depths of my day dreams, I feel like stabbing myself in the heart over and over again, until I drown in a pool of blood.
Not literally though.
Saying goodbye
To someone you love
Is like reading the final page
Of an amazing book.

As the last chapter ends
You begin to notice
Just how beautiful
And perfect
The plot always was.  

You appreciate the joy
And even the pain
As you read and thumb
Through every page.

Finally understanding
The moral of the story,
You realize you've reached
The end of this journey.

Although the last sentence  
Is the most difficult to read
Another great book awaits
Once you turn the final page.

Eventually you may stumble
Upon yet another great find.
Or maybe you'll return
To the book you left behind.

You may just discover
Once all is said and done
That this particular book  
Was your favorite story
All along.
For Ty & Des ❤️
You're a one night stand
But we spent too many nights
I lost count of it.

You're that unexpected kiss
On a drunken wasted night
Of vomits and *****.

You're that awkward hi
Exchanged by strangers who
Thought they both knew each other
But were clearly mistaken for another.

You're the bruise that turns blue
When I accidentally bump my leg
On the corner of the bed.

You're the scar that I never
Knew I had.

You're the bittersweet taste in
My mouth every morning.

You're the last thought lingering
In my head before slumber takes me
And you're the vagueness that
Haunts me in my dreams.

You're the scalding hot shower
In a cold freezing morning.

You're the boiling tea that numbs
My tongue for the rest of the day.

You're the obsession
I will never learn to let go of.

You're that person I will
Never get to call mine.

You're the one that got away.
