No luck stranger

I am having no luck trying to see us through your eyes...
The perseverance weakens, my foothold slips,
and I fall down this long and winding tunnel,
living all the persistence that comes to nothing
(nice job Mr. I leave it too late)

Uncommon ground to lie on
bedding in all the disappointment
while the fury of another failure
sinking in strengthening the will to carry on
and in some distant future
Success lie waiting to be claimed

I am having no luck trying to see you now through my eyes
your grip is slipping and no longer weakens me
this fall while bad enough to 'cause an heartache
is a blessing in disguise, sunshine after the storm

I guess I should let it just be
Things happened for a reason
And I got no reason to
be bitter at what had happened
We are having no luck at being there for each other
So let just be strangers in a strange land

Loser like me

I must have liked you so much to drop everything at the hint of you needing me to be there...
but I don't blame you for not reciprocating...
for I am a loser...
I do not deserved your attention...
but  you are just too cute for me to respect myself enough to walk away...

I'll get it right someday...
have the courage to walk in the other direction
for now, I'll linger in the hope that you will change
realize that I may not be the perfection you seek
but I will try harder than those guys

because when we are together
everything's magic

her boyfriend don't even care

A reflections
on the mirror, a shade of grey
a memory
standing still, in the middle ground
choices made, blinded by emotions
We should talk and not just speak

Troubles
brewing on the west bank
a reminder
of the time when we walk in space
together in a bliss
no worries of the event unfolding

A paradise
Promises that went unfulfilled
a place to call home
lying through your teeth
leaving us to fall apart
and the separation of each other

Right now

right now nothing is more expensive than regret...

right now no one is safe from lonliness

right now justice is being perverted in a court of law

right now you could be outside

right now the light from the star in M-5 is heading toward earth

right now guilt is turning someone inside out

right now youth is king

 

 

paper lanterns

So when are All my troubles going to end?
I'm understanding nOW that
We are only friends
To this day I'm asking why
I still think about you

burnt bridges

The finer things in life...
The most intimate secret of ours...
The shadow of the past that kept haunting you...
The future that were never meant to be...
 

Why am I still here ?

as the days turned to months
the bitter taste turned sweet
as the tug of war gets interesting
the pulling and the letting go
and so the game begins

and then the months turned to years
the feeling slowly wane and fade away
left on the wayside, gathering pace
On a downhill motion, the steep slope of a relationship
and so the game peaked

and slowly they fall apart
to a point of no return
when the heart no longer registered the one face   
to stay together is like lighting oneself on fire
not the way to play the game

and as the taste slowly turned sour
she'll began to realize
an epiphany,

"why am I still here"
