One Year!

Anacampserote!

When you love him and can’t have him,

When you love him and don’t want him,

When you love him and know he hurts you,

When you love him and can't take the pain,

When you love him and don’t want to wait,

When you love him but don't want to break.

Besides!

Let the wind blow away your thoughts,

Let the earth open your doors divine,

Let the sky show you the glorious night,

Let the tides show you how to survive. 

Such a relief when you close your mind,

Be still and witness the story of life,

So, shut out the haunting voice tonight,

Of a heart that trapped and killed mine.

How is it okay for a heart to hurt yours?

Then play the victim and hurt some more,

You do whatever you can to hold your core,

But they keep pricking at your every bone.

The heart is not as strong as the mind,

They battle each other every time, 

But just when the heart begins to win,

The mind gives weight to the truth again.

So, you do what you can and fight,

To save yourself from blaming words and lies,

As they move from loving and hating you,

You try so hard to not let them affect you.

Why should you stop existing? 

Just so you stop their words from deceiving, 

You hear them and see the facade,

Then you know you were right all along.

The courage it takes to let go,

To know a heart intended to use you,

The strings that refuse to hold you close,

So you try to cut every cord that slows.

Heart begins to fight the plight,

At least you don't wake up crying,

The return of your happy and smile,

Took time but it finally sees light. 

The heart goes feeble trying to survive,

The tainted love that you try to leave behind,

I still wonder as the waves caress my skin,

How can anyone fake love to begin with?

Not Again!

When you're shown the truth again,

Time and again proven wrong within,

How do you still sustain your heart?

When you know you gotta let go and run fast.

You know just where you stand,

Empty handed and with an emptier heart,

You know then what's not right,

Time has come to steal back your heart tonight.

When you see them for who they are,

Walking a tightrope with hope now gone,

Baby, shed all your dead tears tonight,

Because it's time to move on and forget their sight.
