emotional suction
love´s is not a lie
it's an origami cuckoo
catched by the whirlpool
of a porcelain blackhole
it's an origami cuckoo
catched by the whirlpool
of a porcelain blackhole

unexplainable draw
Beneath the surface
there's a blackhole of secrets
where trust was devoured
by the gravity of lies.
A smile, a porcelain mask,
delicate and fragile,
concealing the cracks
of betrayal beneath.
Each word spoken,
an origami fold,
Intricate and beautiful.
Battles within the hearts.
Yet a cuckoo's call
that echoed
as the whirlpool's pull
became too strong to resist.

Fold
Porcelain dreams fold origami-style
While cuckoo clocks count whirlpool blackholes.

Cosmic anomaly
Floating in awe towards what appeared a porcelain glaze.
Facing the inescapable pull of that dense, pitch blackhole.
Another cuckoo traveller, bound to grace the twisting whirlpool.
To be folded like origami then distended, mercilessly.

Toxic Crazy Baby
I have happened upon
A whirlpool of blue in your eyes.
Behold, I am spellbound—
Suspended as a porcelain doll
Hung in a windstorm.
It is doomsday in wonderland.
The awe of you has left me cuckoo
As all reason abandons me,
And I am sucked into the black hole
Where your heart should be.
Only grippy socks and origami
Can save me now.
A whirlpool of blue in your eyes.
Behold, I am spellbound—
Suspended as a porcelain doll
Hung in a windstorm.
It is doomsday in wonderland.
The awe of you has left me cuckoo
As all reason abandons me,
And I am sucked into the black hole
Where your heart should be.
Only grippy socks and origami
Can save me now.

Love Is...
Love is this whirlpool
This blackhole
Love is the cracks in the porcelain of my body
My heart folds like origami
Cuckoo, cuckoo
Time heals no wounds
Was it love or a lie?
Love is love
Is love is
Love is
Love is a lie
This blackhole
Love is the cracks in the porcelain of my body
My heart folds like origami
Cuckoo, cuckoo
Time heals no wounds
Was it love or a lie?
Love is love
Is love is
Love is
Love is a lie

Porcelain Origami
She folds herself into a swan
So she can fly away
She cracks but never breaks
She reinforced her porcelain
