walking
on the beach
with your shoes
in your left hand,
you blink
and the sand
stops shining,
raindrops fall as
blue sugary
sprinkles,
and you feel again
the freshness
of the water
you may once
swam in.
when it starts raining on the beach everybody is as helpless as anyone else.

what is the difference
between the
flourescent stars
painted on my ceiling
and the ones
pinned to the sky?
both as dead,
both as lovely,
both as dependent
to the sun.

i met him at a masquerade, a silly place
where people do not need names.

wearing the mystery of the night,
dancing under the raw spotlight,
his honey lips, his indecisive eyes
were feeding innocent souls with lies.

but then i saw him, at midnight,
alone and hidden with his one light
-the lonely moon, the queen of dead
in front of whom his cheeks turned red.

he was just a tragic moonlover
when the masquarade was over.
oh, that poor disguised angel
made falling in love seem so fatal...

baby, this decline is
beautiful to watch:
those mermaid tears
which never warm
your pale cold cheeks
and your sugary
golden sadness.

you re a tragic hero,
a dying moonlover.

i was out dancing in the rain
when i felt the heat of the sunrise.
perhaps a thunder lightened
my heart and the top of my fingers
or perhaps a thunder made me
be the darkest i will ever be.
but somehow then i was alive.
had this poem in mind after listening to lana del rey at 12 pm

this blanket doesn't
keep you warm
so you close your eyes
and beg for
more and more life.

now your world is cold
because when
you were up high
you stared at the sun
when others jumped
and killed the light.

now it feels like
you lost your mind.
So all this time spent alone made me feel so free. Am i happy being myself? Am i myself?
I m lost help
anyways this poem kind of means so much for me and i don t know why. i felt so at peace after writing this.

he knew their voices
were not songs
that people danced to
and their eyes were not
framed blue paintings.

they were not everlasting.
they just made
this world
feel everlasting.
just some thoughts i had in my mind after listening to a sad song. Seize the day, guys! also sorry for repeating the title so many times
