A friend in need is a friend indeed

Friends are certainly the family you choose for yourself. While choosing, you gotta choose wisely.

Which one are you? And which one have you chosen for yourself?

A friend who is undoubtedly a family
A friend who cares for you like no one else
A friend who constantly checks up on you
A friend who is a sister
A friend who is a brother
A friend who is no longer with you but you know his loyalty remains
A friend who you don't need to talk to everyday but the bond stays as strong
A friend who always has your back
A friend who always picks up the call
A friend who calls only to ask for help
A friend who keeps on wanting to make your life decisions for you
A friend who wants to control you
A friend who makes you feel continuously at fault
A friend whose only intention is to bring you down
A friend who is always there to help
A friend who is always there when you are hungry
A friend who is always there to make you happy
A friend who gives you happiness by just being present
A friend who won't let you shed a tear
A friend who struggles but won't let it affect you
A friend who is still searching for the true meaning of life
A friend who is always supportive
A friend who loves you like no other
A friend who will never let you go


I think we are all guilty and innocent all at once. I wrote this as a reminder to all, especially myself - to be better :)

(I don't have a title for this one yet)

In the midst of this chaos, and I'm still
trapped in the silence of your words.

In the midst of this war, and I'm only
searching for the blade of your sword.

In the midst of this catastrophe, and I'm
still following the echoes of your voice.

In the midst of this darkness, and I'm still
hoping for the warmth of your light.

In the midst of this hardship, and I'm only
wishing for the ease of your soul.

You Would Have.. Only If You Did

If only you would listen 
If only you would stay and listen 
Instead of leaving, you would have understood 

If only you would look
If only you would turn around and look
Instead of going away, you would have seen the truth 

If only you would speak 
If only you would utter a word and speak 
Instead of just wondering, you would have known 

If only you would feel 
If only you would try and feel 
Instead of giving up, you would have tasted a piece of myself 

Inverse

When the rain you see isn't the same rain you used to see
When the clouds you see isn't the same clouds you used to see
When the trees you see isn't the same trees you used to see
When the moon you see isn't the same moon you used to see

How can certain things be so familiar yet so strange
How can certain things be so different yet so much like home
How can certain things be so close to you yet so distant
How can certain things be so far away yet the most dear

How can you call me yours when you're not even mine

Betrayal

A person that I thought I knew became a stranger
A place that I used to call home became so foreign

I wanted to see myself in the mirror but I see no reflection
Have I left myself too far that I can't find it anymore

Pictures that I captured are now smudged
Memories that I always had in my head are now blurry

The flower that I used to pluck is now full of thorns
The beach that I used to visit has abandoned its shore

Roads that I used to take are now barbed
Music that I always listened to is now muted

The only way to leave is to never return
And the only thing that I can rely on is the words that I've written

(no title)

We have no power over things that have been written
Nor do we have knowledge over things that will happen
So why don't we just focus on matters that are important
And fix those that are broken

How Would You

How would you understand pain if you've never felt it
How would you understand sorrow if you've never tasted it

How would you understand fear if you've never had the rush running through your veins
How would you understand anger if you've never overcome it

How would you understand loneliness if you've never been abandoned
How would you understand happiness if you've never embraced it

How would you understand the moon if you've never seen darkness
How would you understand the sun if you've never enjoyed the light

How would you understand me if you've never even tried
How would you understand my heart if you've never gotten a bit of it

What Am I To You

Am I not worthy of your time
Am I not worthy of your attention
Am I not worthy enough to get a taste of you
Am I not worthy enough to get the craving I need

Like flowers need water to blossom
Like birds need wings to fly
Like a writer needs their hands to write
I need you to survive

The Opposite

We're so different yet so similar
You're far aside and I'm on the other
You make me forever want to linger
Cause honey in your arms I surrender

You make me want to be better
Despite all the rage and anger
I know we will always come back together
Cause when its me and you, other things don't matter

You do not understand

Its sad when you think you know me when you don't. You don't know when silence occupy myself, thats when I need someone to lean on to the most. Its frustrating when I could just fake a smile and you'd believe it. When I could just laugh out loud but you'd never hear the screaming inside my head. Its painful when I thought you'd understand me the most out of all, but you don't. When I thought you'd stay but you chose to leave. The most painful it is when you doubt how much you mean to me. 

I Found You

I was deep in my lost thoughts

And I found you

I did not know what I was searching for

And I found you

I was not sure of my purpose

And I found you

I slipped off the track, falling

And I found you

I found you when I could not even find myself, and you saved me, every single time
