The Tape and The Glue

You remembered the tape and the glue you held on so tight?

The ones you used to re-attach your shattered heart. The ones you used to wipe away your tears. 

The ones you used to close your ears from the deafening silent voices.

The ones you have been counting on so you can walk again. 

It's okay to let it go.

Because you're now a whole person.  

It's okay to open your bandage. See and greet your scar.

Because now, you won't need them anymore.

It's okay to put everything behind, just behind.

Because then you'll be fine. You'll be even beter. 

Let him go, Ed.

The Un-spoken Wishes

 

 

That the fading shadow I saw from the corner of my eyes this morning, it were you.

That the text message that made my phone rang so loud, it were you.

That the pouring rain coloring the sky dark grey, it were you.

That this one mp3 I kept on playing, it were you.

That the one who would one day come knocking in front of my door, it were you.

The Mirror Shows Smile

You know, the day that I finally let you go, is the day I realized that I could be happy.

That I am happy and whole, despite so many things.

So it's time to take those smiles out of the dark attic, shake the dust off, then wear them on again.

The Risk We Need to Take

You see the water that flows so serene in the river? The sound the ripple makes, the glare beneath the crystal clear sky, the fresh taste on your skin; don't they all make you just wanna jump inside, and for a while, forget the rest of the world, the future we might not have, and the problem that burdens us?

Everything is so beautiful, that you want to preserve it. You want to be like this, forever. 

But time flows, as the river flows. To somewhere we don't know, and that sometimes is a bit frigthening. 

Hell, we could have our heart broken to pieces, and everything just gets ugly. 

So at some point, we just stop jumping. Stop going with the current.

Yet little do we know, that even it is frightening, it is actually worth it.

See the river finally flows so rapid? Up to a right time, right place, it finds an elevation to drop itself. A steep region, a cliff, then turns it into a beautiful waterfall.

So it's okay to fall into pieces, a little now and then. I want to fall again.

I want to swallow all my ego, and be the bold person I was. 

I want to a beautiful waterfall, dropping my all to his heart, and then let the flow take me somewhere new. 

Somewhere magical. 

The Shelter in You

 

 

You remember the time when you opened your arms so wide you could actually hug a tree?

You remember the time when you offered me an umbrella when it's raining outside so heavily?

Or the time when it's too cold in the night, and you're awake because I couldn't sleep then you asked me if I was cold and you shared me your blanket anyway? 

You remember the time when we're about to cross the street and you just walked a bit in front of me to protect me from the traffic?

You remember the time when we're in this one cinema, and you held my hand so tight because you wanted to share your joy?

And the time when you'd make me smile whenever I told you I had a bad day?

Because I do remember.

Because they're the times when I am reminded again and again,

that being with you,

I

am

the

safest 

person

in

this

big world..
