I still remember the look in your eyes from that night
As we fall in line, your hands gently guiding me
And i swear, I felt something
Something electrifying
Something mesmerizing
We both knew
That it was all the beginning

bottom deep
I never knew I'd love water.
The way how it embraces my body, water bubbles was all I can hear.
Empty spaces were filled and my loneliness was taken away.
Only relaxation and blue was all I can see as I open my eyes underwater.
How does it feel if I stay deep within this blue water forever?

what death sounds like
I thought, death sounds like a cry. Of hoarse voices coming from suppressed mouth. Of tears flowing from welling eyes. Of yells and chants and wails from an agony and mourning.
But when he's gone, an epiphany hit me. Death sounds like unopened doors, empty house and morning showers not taken.
Death sounds like unmade bed, infinity loop of silence and crickets at night. Death sounds like untold wishes and promises.
Death sounds like him without by my side.

Ocean
Sun reflects on the clear blue water
I wish that this day goes on forever
Waves on the shore crashed in me as I lie underneath the sand
But then summer slipped away from the grasp of my hand
And all I had to do was to remember
Summers have passed in a blink of an eye
And as a child, all I did was to cry
I used to miss that salty breeze of air
Walks on the shore and shell-picking—that's all I cared
But now I'm older, the only memory left was the moment I waved to the ocean and said, "Hi."

Alternate Universe
Sometimes, I’d wonder
How fascinating it is
That even just for a day
We could live in different worlds
Jump over the mountains
Fly and float on the sea of stars
Monsters hiding on bushes
Maybe somewhere, our other self lives in all of our happiness, fears and doubts
Don’t you think it’s possible?
To travel through time and space
To live on that exact life but different version of ourselves
A spectacular experience a human can have

A Loose Thread
Have you ever felt that moment
When you look at someone’s eye?
No hint of recognition
Or a wave of memories
Just a glance, a wave or smile
You had the strangest feeling
Like it isn’t the first time you were both around
You cant turn your head
Or look away
You choose to stand in the middle of the crowd
Like a loose thread on your favorite shirt
That you can’t stop yourself from pulling
You took a step forward; eyes were locked on the stranger’s
Then suddenly, you knew the feeling.

if i would write a poem about you
I can write a poem about you
Full of metaphors, paradoxes, and all other things that might describe an out-of-this-world person like you.
You can be the heavenly bodies:
The sun, the moon and stars who seems to be patient in chasing each other every single day
As the sun peeks at dawn and sets at dusk leaving a trail of spectrum across the horizon.
You can be the seasons:
Cold as winter
Warm as the summer
Mesmerizing like the spring
And nostalgic like an afternoon of autumn.
Things that seems to be poetic
But describes a person like you
Like how these words have one thing in common–change.
You changed.
Yes,love.
You did.

After Rain
I love the sound of the pouring rain
The way it falls on the roof as I watch over the window pane
Slowly, it cascades on the ground
Where the sky's forlorn reflection can be found
I love the smell of its vapor every time it showers the vastness of earth
The way it soothes my mystified soul
With its warmth like a heat from a well-litten hearth
Calming my mind in a deep chaos
I love the things that the rain left after its downpour
The way I walk on a slippery road leaving a muddy trail
Dew on the grass and blooming of flowers
Rays of the sun peering through the silvery tinted clouds
I love the idea of rain
The way how it resembles life–
Full of suffering like a hundred f raindrops falling from the sky
And after its cloudburst, there will always be sun
That will radiate light and warmness on this tiny planet.

i'll dance until my body ache
and swing my arms until i can't feel it anymore
i want to feel numb until i can't longer feel my heart and soul
and bleed
and weep
until the very last tear reach the ground
shout until all i could do is a whisper
until all of the air left my lungs
i want this to end

I am
whenever they ask something about me
i would tell them mundane things about myself
of how typical i am
but deep within me
i'm much of a river
a river that flows continuously
passing narrow paths
until the water reached its destination
a river that flows freely
like how i live
in flux
and monotony

glow
when you feel sad and weary
remember these words clearly:
you are great
you are unique
you glows
just like the scattered diamonds in the dark sky
you outstands the darkness enveloping the whole universe
with unheard words
sorrows
and silent cries.

an understatement
"what is love?"
some might say
metaphorical things:
of how love is like a rosary
that is full of mystery
when the truth is
a rosary is nothing but beads on a string
of how love is blind
when the truth is
love has no eyes
that can see things
but for me
one thing's for sure
love means
me and you

you are what you eat
yesterday
i ate makeup
to fit in
the standards of their so-called
beauty
today
i ate a book
to fit in
their society full of hypocrites
a single mistake of thought
a single utter of word
they'll judge you
maybe
tomorrow
i'll eat air and water
so i can be invisible
and escape from this loop of stupidity

the satellite
every midnight
when everything's in silence
and darkness envelopes me
i cry
every midnight
when they're all asleep
sadness and pain
keeps me awake
every midnight
when i don't feel ok
i'll go outside
and watch the night sky
and every midnight
when this pain won't go away
i'll just look over the moon
because i know
that somewhere
someone might looking to it
the same way i do

Your Name
"Don't forget."
You told me
I kept your words in my mind
Pictured you in my sight
As I watched you running silhouetted on the twilight
I turned my head toward the sky
Shinning stars reflected upon my eyes
I know you'll keep your promise that you'll never forget
As I repeat your name over and over inside my head
A drop of tear
Comet blasted into the sky
I keep remembering the words you said for the last time
I smiled
"I remember",
I told myself
I just need to hurry up and remember your name until the end.
—inspired by Kimi No Nawa (Your Name)

everlasting chase
"How does it felt like?"
"It's like when the sun misses the stars in the morning sky. An everlasting chase."
She said, eyes fixed in the horizon.
—inspired by Lana del rey's song: summertime sadness.

sea of thoughts
i was—and am still drowning
the moment you let the words came out of your mouth
the water started to rise
until it filled my lungs
three water bubbles
escaped
and just like that
i'm done

i understand you
no matter what you say
or do
through your melting gaze
breathtaking smiles
and warm hugs
i memorized every move you do
but I'm hoping you understand me too

inkless pen
i was the pen
that created life and broke the monotony of one's aching soul
but one day,
i lost mine too
and i became a mere pen
thrown away
and
forgotten

wishing wells, shooting stars and 11:11 wishes.
i don't know why i still believe on these things
perhaps, it's because of you.
of us.
we were impossible
but every moment when i think of you, there's hope.
like how i closed my eyes when the fallen star flashed across the dark sky
like the candle on top of the birthday cake—waiting to be blown
like the last tick of the clock before a second 'til 11:11
i'm waiting for something
and hoping for my wish to come true
just like the impossible dream I had about you.

sunsets
when i was a kid,
i used to think that sunsets are endings
but now that you're beside me—
eyes fixed on the setting sun, your arms placed around me
i knew, this is just the beggining.
