I want to write everything that doesn't make sense
About you, the moonlight, the fence
But even if I did manage to put them into words
It won't be different, still the same repetitive chords.
The moon-
That was the last thing I remember
We were staring at it
Like it was the most beautiful thing ever
Then a hug
For that was the last time we'll see each other
I wish I have stayed
On that warm night of November.
i don't know how i can describe you
you're like my guardian angel who suddenly flew
leaving me overwhelmed by your greatness
since then, looking for you became my quest
you became my anchor to the real world
in the midst of coals, you became my gold
i hold on to you with everything i have
i lay at your feet all that i love
you made me happy like i thought i'd never be
in my own tiny prison, you set me free
right then, i thought something might last
but as i turn around, you became my past
as i sat there, feeling numb
i ask myself, how i can be so dumb?
that i have never realized, you were there only for a season
that you only came to teach me a painful lesson.

Hey, your poems are amazing and relatable
Thank you. This inspires me to keep writing. This means so much to me. Thank you. ☺️
I write not because it make things better. I write because it's the only thing I know. And I know it's dumb. Words are very unreliable, yet it's the only thing I could hold on to. It's my rope. I know people tend to break them every time, but I don't care. I'll still hold on to it like its my last piece of thread. And maybe that's the reason behind my brokenness. Because I try to latched on the thing that people barely keep. But I can't help it. Words, writing them down, it doesn't always make everything clearer, but for me, it's the only thing that makes sense. The only constant in my life that I could turn to no matter what. And there's no word for everything. There are feelings and experiences that I cannot fathom into phrases or sentences. But somehow, when everything is fading too fast, and I'm alone and lost and confused, these breakable, limited words became enough for me. Not enough to be fine and happy, but enough to survive. And I hope it'll be enough for another day, because I honestly don't know what to do if it isn't.
My pen glides through the paper as I bleed you out
The ink tells what I can't speak through my mouth
It seems I lost my voice since you left
Not does it matter, with me, you're always deaf
I beg for you to stay, I plead for just another minute
But you're hellbent on tearing my heart, blowing it to bits
Yet you say there's nobody crueler than I
When you didn't even think twice when you said goodbye.
Often I wonder if I'll ever hear your voice again
'Cause I can no longer remember its sound, its tone
I can only feel the warmth it brings when it rains
The way it made my heart skips, the way it chilled my bones
I wonder if you still laugh the same
If my soul, your singing can still tame
'Cause all I have now is a dusty memory
One that's leaving me, leaving me slowly
So here I am, still hoping against it all
That you'll one day give me call
That once again, I'll feel that honey dripping in my ears
Just so I can be reminded, there's someone real behind these tears.
Catch me, catch me, but we're both falling
To my hands, don't you cling
I'm black and blue, you're shining golden
Blood runs black, wounds gaping open
This is an illusion, I'm not your forever
Lying through our teeth, don't you remember?
My voice in your head, a song, a warning
This is a trap, now we better start running.
