You don’t belong to me, you never have
But those days and nights are mine
Say I am selfish, say I am this or am that
Torn between going in peace and fighting for you
She has had you, but when you are here, you’re mine
The early mornings belong to me, but she has you at night
I could just ask you of what you want
But this would be too complicated
Should I? Would it lead anywhere?
Would it lead yo...
In the line: waiting,
Holding my backpack,
My heart beating fast,
But in a good way.
Singing along to the music in the background,
Cheerful?
Slowly moving foward…
Almost there…
In the plane: oh no.
The flashing lights,
Fill the sky,
My heart is beating fast,
Not in a good way.
Plug in my headphones to ignore the background sound,
Anxious?
It will end any time soon…
I hope…...
Can love and anger really coincide with each other?
Yes, yes they can. Sometimes though, if you ask me, the anger is stronger than the love.
If you allow yourself to be angry and hate, you’re covering yourself from the best feeling in life, love.
You start to forget the beautiful qualities within yourself, like your sense of humour, your kindness, your loyalty and your dignity. If you allow ...
Can I kiss you
Platonically?
I promise, just as friends
It will only take a second
You’ll forget it when it ends
I only want to tell you
In the best way I know how
You make my world seem brighter
And I need you in it now
You’re the piece of me that’s missing
You’re my flashlight in the dark
You turn weeping into laughter
You’re a neverending spark
I can call myself a po...
There is a black hole inside of my chest
He cannot see it, perhaps for the best
I am so unworthy of all of his light
Can a sunbeam ever love the Queen of the Night?
I’m damaged beyond what I want him to know
The achings I live with do nothing but grow
He’d vanish at once in the very hour
That the Queen of the Night showed the whole of her power
I am the serpent, disguised as a dove
Bringing not...
They say there’s love at first sight
Yeah, we get it confused and don’t even try
It’s a game you see
Played time after Time
As emotions get caught up
In the rush of things and intertwine
Heart bleed, like old wither vines
Lovers waiting for someone to throw a lifeline
Just to lose their minds
One day at a time
Even make you lose your mind
And all the world as lovers sit back-and-fro
Unra...
My heart fills with joy
As she makes her mark
Working so, so hard
To reach her goals
My heart aches
She did it.
I didn't.
I don't know how
Should I feel this way?
She was my friend
She _was_
And now she isn't
That should have been me
Me and not her
Why isn't it me?
It could've been me
She deserved it.
She earned it.
So why can't I be happy,
For what she has that I don't?...
I hate you
I hate being near you
I hate when you don’t respond to me
I hate that I can’t stop thinking about you
But I love you
I love you
I love when your with me
I love when you listen to me
I love that you’re always on my mind
But I hate that you don’t love me
I hate you for ignoring me
I hate me for being unable to let go of you...
Everyday,
Sucks…
But the difference here is
He makes everything better
The lord
I hate people
I hate…
But the difference here is
People have a part of god’s energy
So love
I feel sad
Sorrow…
But the difference here is
He is happy,the happiest
I should be too right?
I sometimes don’t feel excitement
Internal battle…
He is the giver
Trust…
I want someone to love me
Lover?…
The only tr...
