comfortably numb ☯

Star-crossed lovers in the constellation of distance,  separated and brought together by unwinding paths --  and sitting under the stillness of moonlight,  I can feel the fragility of the situation --  how beautiful, how haunting.  And even after the blur of us,  You are the sunset,  radiating with such brilliance.  You are the raindrops,  falling with such velocity.  You are the bulbs,  blossoming with such elegance. You are the leaves,  crunching with such crispness.  You are the lion,  pouncing with such ferocity.  You are my warmth --  my enlightenment. 

orchestrate something for me --  your fingers intertwining between mine,  or running through my hair --  your choice. your whispers into my ear,  late at night when our souls blossom. your eyes, glimmering,  when you stare deep --  really seeing me.  your heartbeat in sync with mine,  a symphony of love.  orchestrate something for me --  make music, make love

opening my eyes,  I see nothing but darkness -- a cruel world soaked in its own tragedy, piercing the heavy heart's of its inhabitants, and scorching the damned truth into their souls. solemnly --  an epidemic. 

a hollowed shell of my former self --  floating to the surface drenched in self-loathe  lacking all control  lost in translation --  tell me again who I am, who I've become,  who I will be. 

You make my heart pound to the rhythm of a thousand drums the exasperating intensity the unfathomable passion I look into your eyes -- a sea of pure and irreplaceable desire

a soul as fragile as glass one drop - shattered and broken irreplacable and lost a mind as fluid as waves one thought - explosion of emotions cursed and blessed a heart as warm as flames one desire - open and willing  vulnerability and ignorance a voice as outspoken as an alarm one word - forever ingrained in the atmosphere uncontrollable and impulsive

let us not  dwell among the past crimes of passion but linger upon  the silver lining of heartbreak you are strong  you are alive  you are a better person

ignited a feeling of fury such tragedy such devastation  choking on the pollution of society allow me to reiterate  all monsters are  human 

a recollection of memories  spirited away through pain and agony bleeding into my soul I have faded into the  atmosphere no longer visible to anyone but myself  I am nothing

with the abrupt ending of this emotional year I plead for danger adrenaline, and spontaneity as I trek down the path of the newly born twenty thirteen loneliness replaced with adventures and  memories captured in time  

with that sense of fulfilling freedom,  I have roamed out of the realms of reality and touched onto the parallel of paradise,  with the desire to discover more, I soared until I arrived at the sanctity symbolizing my living Hell, and that's when my raging revelation led me to believe, I had simply returned to reality 

I open my mouth,  and not a single breath, scream, whisper, or sound is released. I open my heart, and I get stabbed,  ripped to shreds, stomped on. I open my eyes, and I see nothing,  but a faint vision of someone I used to be, I am empty. 

like radio static  the noise buzzes like a mosquito flying around the safari watering hold the noise sustains itself like the everlasting pitch of an alarm system the noise becomes so dominant so influential so powerful the only way to escape the said trap is to scream even louder  

because I fell in love  with your sentimental words your unbelievable smile your enlightening aurora  your delectable warmth  your undying acceptance because I fell in love with your plagued past and understanding future your balanced present but you're just a figment of my imagination trying to ease the poison that fills the cracks of my thoughts 

a short glimpse  in the mirror followed by a flood of pure disapproval being my own worst critic my flaws radiate in my dull reflection because when I stare at the person looking back at me I don't like who I see.
