Black Lotus
In this darkened room,
My twisted fantasy of being alone.
And this humanoid doll,
I look at everyday with such intent.
Is it really taking a shape,
Or is it my imagination?
I was always watching you,
Drifting along and obsessed.
The urge to be with someone,
Yet denying their existence.
I wonder,
If I ever truly knew what I wanted.
My self made creation,
Is finally realized in front of me.
So beautiful yet fragile,
Could break down any moment.
Burdened by the guilt I could never convey,
And...
My twisted fantasy of being alone.
And this humanoid doll,
I look at everyday with such intent.
Is it really taking a shape,
Or is it my imagination?
I was always watching you,
Drifting along and obsessed.
The urge to be with someone,
Yet denying their existence.
I wonder,
If I ever truly knew what I wanted.
My self made creation,
Is finally realized in front of me.
So beautiful yet fragile,
Could break down any moment.
Burdened by the guilt I could never convey,
And...

Soliloquy
I make lies to hide my ways,
Disdained in repressed thoughts,
The thorn of misery takes shape.
Sordid yet not sad,
A hope in memories deep.
Whispering voices engulfed in affection,
Misty shades laid in sombre sleep.
Through the slits of my hand,
I see rays of spring.
Not days of hope,
But truth that creates my sin.
I draw on my most pleasant night,
Forlorn my thoughts of self-hate,
The lights are declined.
In my last mourning I still pray,
Let hope be dead, the sky in gray.
Disdained in repressed thoughts,
The thorn of misery takes shape.
Sordid yet not sad,
A hope in memories deep.
Whispering voices engulfed in affection,
Misty shades laid in sombre sleep.
Through the slits of my hand,
I see rays of spring.
Not days of hope,
But truth that creates my sin.
I draw on my most pleasant night,
Forlorn my thoughts of self-hate,
The lights are declined.
In my last mourning I still pray,
Let hope be dead, the sky in gray.

Season of Sadness
I waited for a letter to come,
And, beautiful it was.
Her lie I couldn't read,
The ache in her heart was still there.
I can still smell her fragrance,
All her sins undone.
The moon is waning,
And, part of me is gone.
No more am I awaiting the sun,
I'm standing in winter dew,
Reminiscing of Grace.
A forest devoid of life,
And years pass by,
Damnation in my mind.
And, beautiful it was.
Her lie I couldn't read,
The ache in her heart was still there.
I can still smell her fragrance,
All her sins undone.
The moon is waning,
And, part of me is gone.
No more am I awaiting the sun,
I'm standing in winter dew,
Reminiscing of Grace.
A forest devoid of life,
And years pass by,
Damnation in my mind.

Shinigami
Life is full of weird things,
A little fantastic, fleeting & out of reach.
But to be alive is the worst,
That's what my conflicted mind feels.
Seeing everyone around me,
I feel this lingering sensation,
Cheap friendships & worthless values,
Animals, In the name of human impersonation.
I pretend as though I never noticed,
The reason I lived a life full of repression.
The constant fear of losing someone,
Unintended feeling of unadulterated attention.
Before I knew it,
I was already feeding myself with...
A little fantastic, fleeting & out of reach.
But to be alive is the worst,

Unintended feeling of unadulterated attention.

Vestiges
How bitter this morning,
Winter's dismay, the sky so gray.
Seeing her face for the last time,
All the rain flowed away.
Across the field, he felt a presence,
The dampened air smelled of her still.
And echoes ringing from a distance,
Lost peace midst juvenile resistance.
Icicles melted one after another,
Like a vile moon dripping forever,
Cried the scythe of the reaper.
Suddenly it turned red into the night,
Was it a dream?
Or a spring neverending?
He will never know, ...
Winter's dismay, the sky so gray.

Geometric Love
Let's count from one to ten,
And then, we will forget it all.
Negativity,
It is the first thing we feel,
When we meet for the first time,
Look at each other.
Positivity,
It is the thought we recall,
As the days befall and we are,
Closer to each other.
Relationship, such a beautiful thing,
And we have been craving so long,
To find someone.
Love, this feeling from other world,
We come close in search of and us,
Our feelings are one.
Straight line, represents our love,
Untangled and pure, our...
And then, we will forget it all.

Fortitude
Blessed travelers of a night past,
Seize the scattered dots, lights far apart.
Blackened waves worshipping a ritual unborn,
Claims the tempest, beyond the horizon of dawn.
A chasm of frailty mouldering my heart,
Carrying a song of seasons, from womb to the earth.
A bondage of a world bound within my own,
Grasping this withering beauty, golden leaf of autumn's last scorn.
A suffocation I went through so many times,
Yet, I still live, whispering the broken rhymes.
As a fevered shadow quietly darkens the road,
We proceed...
Seize the scattered dots, lights far apart.
Blackened waves worshipping a ritual unborn,
Claims the tempest, beyond the horizon of dawn.
A chasm of frailty mouldering my heart,
Carrying a song of seasons, from womb to the earth.
A bondage of a world bound within my own,
Grasping this withering beauty, golden leaf of autumn's last scorn.
A suffocation I went through so many times,
Yet, I still live, whispering the broken rhymes.
As a fevered shadow quietly darkens the road,
We proceed...

Punk'D in the Frost
An image of azure in the night,
A hazy place blinding with star's light.
A well of heat that softly glows,
Plunders warmth from the deepest souls.
Inside this forest of sleepless plight,
Sacred hymns of distressed mind.
Not realizing yet losing everything,
We lost ourselves craving the dream.
Countless pale nights have gone,
In this world of inescapable menace.
Silently braced in our faltering faith,
Lost days of happiness towards death's last grace.
Differences are easy to find,
Days of affection still far...
A hazy place blinding with star's light.
A well of heat that softly glows,
Plunders warmth from the deepest souls.
Inside this forest of sleepless plight,
Sacred hymns of distressed mind.
Not realizing yet losing everything,
We lost ourselves craving the dream.
Countless pale nights have gone,
In this world of inescapable menace.
Silently braced in our faltering faith,
Lost days of happiness towards death's last grace.
Differences are easy to find,
Days of affection still far...

Zakuro
I can still hear that soft sound,
Swaying faintly out of my reach.
Stuck in my ears,
So profoundly beautiful,
The beseeching god was killed.
Clouds covered the moon tonight,
And I can feel the warmth fading.
A cold nostalgia, drowning slowly,
Coiling neath cold sad dreams.
Still waiting at the table alone,
The soup has already gone cold.
Like millions of larvae swimming,
In a pond of ceramic white bowl.
I can feel the sound of my heartbeat,
Stopping indeed almost detached.
Ticking toward an...
Swaying faintly out of my reach.
Stuck in my ears,
So profoundly beautiful,
The beseeching god was killed.
Clouds covered the moon tonight,
And I can feel the warmth fading.
A cold nostalgia, drowning slowly,
Coiling neath cold sad dreams.
Still waiting at the table alone,

Farewell
In your tears I find my silence,
And a lamenting fire reveals itself.
If the seasons won't come,
Let me sleep in your lap once more,
Until the days are gone.
In your longing I find my grief,
And all the blue comes rushing in.
If the lights won't be lit,
Let us drench under moon once more,
Embraced in summer ocean.
A wailing sound faintly caresses my ears,
As the day approaches,
I let go of my solitude.
Pangs of torture slit unto you,
As the wind of farewell silently touches you.
And a lamenting fire reveals itself.
If the seasons won't come,
Let me sleep in your lap once more,
Until the days are gone.
In your longing I find my grief,
And all the blue comes rushing in.
If the lights won't be lit,
Let us drench under moon once more,
Embraced in summer ocean.
A wailing sound faintly caresses my ears,
As the day approaches,
I let go of my solitude.
Pangs of torture slit unto you,
As the wind of farewell silently touches you.

Best Day of My Life
Another morning, I try to lift my eyes.
As I yawn like it’s the end of earth,
All the doubts inside me quickly dies.
I feel so strange yet so serene,
It's the greatest vacation I can ever get.
I look through my half sunken window,
I know the sun of my days won't set.
I don't wanna waste any moment of it,
Life can't be better than that,
I can't be truer than myself.
The dust in my mind starts to lift up,
I pat my dry cheeks & straighten my tangled hair.
The hazy sunshine soon turns into nuclear rays,
I clean...
