Poet Introduction
Hmm…I don’t think I’d consider myself a poet exactly, but I think I’m kind of a creative writer of sorts?

!!~ How to read my song lyrics “correctly” lol
*FYI for people who read my lyrics**
(ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ
I’ve noticed that many of my song lyrics don’t really make sense when you just read them out loud.
But that is cause they’re supposed to go the tune of the song that I post a link to at the bottom.
I think some of my lyrics can stand alone, but for many, in order to truly get the message, one would definitely have to listen to the song while reading along with the lyrics.
It’s kinda like karaoke, except, you’re not...

Run Away (9 & 3/4)
verse one}
Suddenly the skies,
Turned in on my mind
Now’s the time.
Spilt the iodine,
Stinging in my scars
I’m screaming out:
{verse two}
“Oh, what is empathy for,
If no one feels this like I do?
Tricked by fake grinning,
Trapped by hexan beasts--
But people could care less.”
{post-verse}
I felt so hopeful,
I’ve started over a million,
Fucking times.
But, it’s all a lie.
So you say you’re here for me, ...
Suddenly the skies,
Turned in on my mind
Now’s the time.
Spilt the iodine,
Stinging in my scars
I’m screaming out:

“Oh, what is empathy for,
If no one feels this like I do?
Tricked by fake grinning,
Trapped by hexan beasts--
But people could care less.”
{post-verse}

Fucking times.
But, it’s all a lie.
So you say you’re here for me, ...

Reliving the past, anxious in the present, winging it for the future
Long ago, I created an account called “wizkatfood” along with my current account. I pretended I was two different people when in fact it was just me.
I still find it hilarious to this day that I decided to do such a thing, even though it makes absolutely no sense lol.
When I created “wizkatfood” I was in a much worse state that I am in now. If you read my latest poem, you probs wouldn’t believe me lol—but that’s not the point.
I was at the height of my mental health crisis and I definitely needed to clock out of that account. So, I did. I deleted it.

Chaotic Spring
I’ve felt for 2 decades
80 years of fears still scorch the page
Keystrokes striking the ground
A force that clocks my head
Like an asteroid
La sang est mon encre
La beauté est futile
Mais j’espère de mourrir,
Ne le dis pas aux parents
It’s only been an hour
One more frostbitten minute
Beneath the blossom tree
That keeps sucking the drought
A tear that’s holding on dear life
Holding in sweet saltwater
My hand still here stretched out...
One look at my shaking eyes,
Glass...
80 years of fears still scorch the page
Keystrokes striking the ground
A force that clocks my head

La sang est mon encre

Mais j’espère de mourrir,

It’s only been an hour
One more frostbitten minute
Beneath the blossom tree
That keeps sucking the drought
A tear that’s holding on dear life
Holding in sweet saltwater
My hand still here stretched out...

Still anxious..
Yesterday night, I stayed up writing lyrics until 2am, and couldn’t fall asleep until 3am.
The lyrics I wrote were great, but, I really don’t think that’s the problem. Honestly, it’s just me being too hard on myself again.
But uGhGHhgh, I can’t control it.
Even now, I’m still obsessing over the numbers that I get on my poems, and now I feel worn out and sad. I’m tired, frustrated and worrying over shit for no damn reason.
Typical day, typical day.
And, I don’t even want to get started on my procrastination..........
Jesus, I...

Soul Lady & The Secret City
♬✧♬~
A magnificence so mystical
Sparkles past the skyscrapers
Pedestrians in 12 directions
Sneaking the tangled alleyways
Traffic lights leave a scent slowly,
Invigorating you
Their rainbow sparkle,
Illuminates your hollow heart
In hidden streets,
Everyone shows their colours
But in the intersections everybody’s
Inspected under watchful eyes
Though you feel inside
From every corner
This...
A magnificence so mystical
Sparkles past the skyscrapers
Pedestrians in 12 directions
Sneaking the tangled alleyways
Traffic lights leave a scent slowly,
Invigorating you
Their rainbow sparkle,
Illuminates your hollow heart
In hidden streets,
Everyone shows their colours
But in the intersections everybody’s
Inspected under watchful eyes
Though you feel inside
From every corner
This...

Southern Cross Dreaming
➴ ➶ ➴
...This time, laid on soft sheets of white
Your gaze is locked, on mine
Those eyes, are whirlpools of worry within
I know it’s true~
A small, naked wick ignited
In orange hues of candlelight
Two eyes, unknowing of your next doing
Sensed a truth~
They didn’t know why,
I took you to my place
But it isn’t just another evening,
It won’t be just a memory
Streamlining the road
Like a dragon kite flies away
Hot red convertible
Zips the nighttime like it won’t end ...
...This time, laid on soft sheets of white
Your gaze is locked, on mine

Sensed a truth~
They didn’t know why,

But it isn’t just another evening,
It won’t be just a memory
Streamlining the road
Like a dragon kite flies away
Hot red convertible
Zips the nighttime like it won’t end ...

Today’s Mood..
Humans are just humans. We don’t have the seas and skies in our hand. We just have ourselves, and that’s the scariest part.”
◊ ◊ ◊
/v.1/
2 o’clock lost in mid-afternoon sighs
I didn’t ask,
For this much work to be assigned.
\v.2\
Reminders left to check
Avoiding my unread texts
Again...
/pre-ch/
Feelings are on the edge
Of the railing today
Not worrying about what train comes when
Do I go south or west?
This compass just won’t follow
Wherever I want it to go...

I’ve felt nothing like this,
Momentary infinite.
One clip of you
Turning back to face me.
On the left of my centre
Of gravity, a nostalgic
Beating of the heart
Isn’t in sync.
~pporappippam
I like it, like it
Moonlight sonata
8-bit-a-pat heart
We’re like,
~pporappippam
An ultraviolet love
Initializing…

Ooh, level one
Swim under blue seas
Past nanometer 4-oh-oh~
Ooh, my treasure
One ray of light still...
Momentary infinite.
One clip of you
Turning back to face me.
On the left of my centre
Of gravity, a nostalgic
Beating of the heart
Isn’t in sync.

Having perfectionistic anxiety
One of my worst fears is that the work I post here is absolutely useless.
Like honestly, I only post English song lyrics to the tune of songs of different languages.
At first, it honestly felt like plagiarism, even though these lyrics are actually all mine and based off of my own feelings. Also, I never take credit for the songs I post, just the lyrics--on every single post, I do this.
However, it's extremely hard for my anxiety not to pop up and paint everything in a dark light, just so that I end up of hating my work and the effort I put into it.

~Last Summer Whisper
Dreamy eyes, the trees whisper their thoughts to me
Subtle charm, the sun sets and she catches you
Do you hear what I hear?
As we’re walking closer than friends
Wind whisperin’, makes my heart floatin’
Do you see what I see?
As sunlight dew drips from those lips
A warm haze, lifts eyes, up to you~
Baby love, do you feel my gaze on you?
Look into my eyes, deep in my soul
Baby love, do you hear my heartbeat call?
Whispering softly, sounds of love
Sparklin’ smile, I hear raindrops ripplin’ with...
Subtle charm, the sun sets and she catches you

Baby love, do you feel my gaze on you?
Look into my eyes, deep in my soul

Navillera
chapter 1 // recollection}
Both my eyes closed
Opens an unknown door
A small secret,
I think you should know.
I remember something so clear
You and I,
Our fingertips brushing against our hearts.
The swirling storm inside
N-n-navillera~
Big, brave and beautiful
Stars afire
Should've known that time
The envy of my loneliness
For love…
Now both my eyes closed just in time
~/chorus/~
Let’s start again,
With something else
We didn’t...
Both my eyes closed
Opens an unknown door
A small secret,
I think you should know.
I remember something so clear
You and I,
Our fingertips brushing against our hearts.
The swirling storm inside
N-n-navillera~
Big, brave and beautiful
Stars afire
Should've known that time
The envy of my loneliness
For love…
Now both my eyes closed just in time
~/chorus/~
Let’s start again,
With something else
We didn’t...
