A thick blanket

When it's cold
I'll let you wrap my body
As you provide your warmth
That I need

When it's hot
I'll push you way
And you will be unneeded.

But when the weather is just normal,
There's an awkward feeling between us
Cause it will be hot with you
But I'll be cold without you.

More than being awkward,
it's inconvenient.

Path

I know that one day
You will understand what I am thinking
You will feel what I am feeling
You will fear what I fear
And you will regret just like I do

I know for a certain
As you are walking at the same path as I am
The difference is, you're a few steps behind

And even if I slow down my pace
I know you will never catch up
As it is never meant to be

But the fact that I know you will someday
understand me,
comforts me.

You're a star



You told the tale
that you're a star
And you gushed over a hope that
one day you will find 
your moon
to accompany you
throughout those lonely nights.

You told the tale
how both of you
despite everything,
will choose to shine in the darkness,
together.

You indeed are a star.
You will indeed shine
in darkness.

But unlike you,
I don't need darkness 
to shine.
And I don't need anyone
to accompany me either.


Because, I'm the sun.
And I don't fade.

Rock Bottom

When you hit rock bottom,
the only option you have 
is to go back up,
they say.



That is true.
But an option is not an assurance.
You have to struggle to climb back up.

And for all you know,
you might fall over and over again
in the course of climbing.

And that makes you want to
just stay at the rock bottom.

It sure is easy to say.

"You can't keep living in the past. Move on, will you?"

But what can I do?
The present doesn't keep me alive.
But those memories do.

And I want to be nothing,
but alive
at this very moment.

So, just let me dwell in it.
Let me just do
whatever I want this time.

You've said enough.
You've concerned enough.

 And they are only

It was Spring

I left.
Because I didn't 
want to wait.

The irony is,
the only thing
I can do
after leaving
is waiting.

Weariness

Don't worry
about me.

I already worry
about myself so much.

Your concern
is a burden to me.

A burden which tells me that 
I should be ok.
