Virtual Mountains | Apr.14.2015 ✧・゚✧


 Virtual Mountains | Apr.14.2015

You can read all the horoscopes in the world, but it don't mean one damn thing
You can dig deep into your fears, so much that it hurts and stings
Palm reading, tarots cards, fast forward into the future and watch it all start

Chasing fleeting images of wants and needs,
Nurturing the future's outcome like growing seeds
Possibilities, possibilities, behind vague images of inner wrath and doubt
Tempted to take glimpses into the unknown and find out what we can scout
Danger, excitement, risk or bliss?
Adventure, healing or simple reminisce?

A Witty Mockery of All Fairytales! | Dec 26, 2013 ✧・゚✧



A Witty Mockery of All Fairytales! | Dec 26, 2013

Once upon a time, in a land far away, lived a little princess in a really high tower
Her faith was shaken & her heart was turning sour
Unable to think of a cure, probably delusional by society's demands
Hopelessly gives up & asks God for a man to dispose at her hands 
To rescue her from her wicked ways or save her from her evil step-mother
Unable to use the stairs or take the elevator, she simply couldn't bother

Push | Dec.16.2013

Every now and then, I lose my way, my wants & my needs
Just sit there and patiently wait to sow my once planted seeds
Action-oriented, success driven .. I’ve never been so addicted
That voice in the back of my head keeping one restricted
Pushing you to be better, to do better & astonishingly you eventually do
You’re a pusher, you push yourself beyond your own limitations
So far away, never thought it was possible

On the surface.. No, you never break, not even a crack
You do what it takes & compensate what you lack
"You’re just a workaholic" no one can see behind your disguise

Lost Little Birdie |  Feb.25.2009

I miss u like a lost little birdie flying in the sky real free
Looking around to see where he belongs, its home tree
Then at last, it realizes its nest is in your arms
'cause I'm defenseless to your everlasting charms  ;)

 I'm swept off my feet,
Having you around is becoming one true major addiction
Like my own personal version of prince charming- yet real
It's not a fiction!
and I like it how you pop into my dreams every once in a while
and it kinda makes my day, 'cause it wakes me up with a smile
Like I don't get enough of you when I'm awake
I need your company, even if its fake

I will not Hold my Breath but Learn | Mar 06, 2013


I will not Hold my Breath but Learn | Mar 06, 2013

Always setting myself up for failure
That its sometimes truly more than I can take
I push myself too hard until I finally seize to awake

I try and I try, out of pure goodness in me
For lost memories, I just can't seem to flee
The good ones, the bad ones
No matter how little, changed me in so many ways
It's one of those things in your heart that always stays

Endless Fairytale | Dec. 2012 ✧・゚✧



Endless Fairytale  | Dec. 2012

10 years from now
I personally close my eyes
Where a vivid image in my head lies
All I see is you still holding my hand
It's a fantasy of mine nobody can understand
 

There's nothing I'd rather do
Than spend eternity being with you
'Cause I know nothing'll feel this pure
& nowhere I'll ever feel more secure

Out of This Maze | Nov 07, 2012

Say yes, Say yes I can
I’m gonna explode & reach my span
I deserve, deserve so much more
I know my potential I feel in my core
I read & I read, I always overcome
The fears I put aside, have now no sum
No longer helpless or frozen in my place
My soul explodes, inside, into many divergent rays
Many solutions leading out of this dreadful suffocating maze
