seeing a girl getting
pinned to a wall with nails
fills you with utter sadness.
but seeing that same girl
flying away as free as a butterfly
fills you with courage.2:40
as i waved goodbye
to the boy beneath the fluorescent lights
in a pigment of my dream,
i came to realize that my love for you
is yet to be at its pinnacle.3:03
i realized that i often had a dream within a dream
and that my dreams are nothing more than
forbidden messages that i should never utter
to a single soul.
that is, unless it's written down.3:05
my hands reeked of cerulean ink
and plum-coloured paint from the cosmos
as i wrote down every single one of my feelings
for you on crumpled paper.3:07
cupping my hands around my mouth,
and pretending there was an ear in front of me
i practiced whispering a faint,
'i love you'
into the deep crevices of a human's ear
to a boy who may never love me.3:11
i listened to a tango at allegro
and tried dancing continuously
in hopes of dancing with you
in the near future or so.
i want you to hold me in your arms,
as i tuck my face in your shoulder so i
could be able to feel your warmth.
both yours and mine radiating together—
forming daisies on a wooden stage.-
Today hasn't been good. I'm grieving over a loss right now, so I'm sorry if updates may be delayed. I'm sorry if I'm unable to update for a while.
