A little while ago I was on the bathroom floor.. Lying bare with a lighter and a box
A little while ago I was far away from this city.. Escaping from this noisy town.
A little while ago as I lit the cigarette. I laid there and watch it burn.

Just like the dirt that flows away under the showers
Broken Beauty Begs to Bloom my flowers
Childhood memories and playful diseases

a poem to my lover on New Year's Eve

Tell me...

When the fireworks begin,

I thought I saw you in a window. You were at your favourite café, drinking coffee with your hair in a bun. You had on your favourite sweater, and that big stupid grin I haven't seen in forever. You looked like you were having the time of your life. I

Her eyes run deeper than obsidian. A smooth jet black, like marble on the floor of a palace. They call to you; they beckon. They offer you the chance to lose yourself for a while, to gaze into the abyss and watch the world disappear around you. It's unsett

Scrubbing the floor wasn’t quite one of my favorite things to do. I had to do it anyway.
I would wash tons of clothes and the more I washed was actually the more I washed. I just wished I got enough food that could amount to the number of clothes I was

There was a time in my life I read and I never got an understanding of what I read. I tried. I wanted to know things but it seemed things didn’t want to know me.
My books and I weren’t quite friendly with each other. We always had a way of hating on ours

We were so close to the extent that I thought even goodbye couldn’t separate us.
All my life, everything I did she was there.
