Believing In Soulmates

You are not an illusion
Nor are you a mere reflection
Though I can't explain what I'm feeling
I just know that you make me want to start believing

Dreaming inside of a fairytale
The reason to smile

Fantasizing within a dream
The reason to believe

Maybe those so-called miracles are truly real
The love stories do have their sequels

Though it's near impossible to try and get rid of this doubt
But I know that I will eventually succeed, because you're here now
Just when I thought I was lost, you came around, then I realized I was found
-
You have to be the other side
The missing piece that fits just right
So

DenialDenial:

He stands before the mountains
and sighs, knowing that they reach toward the heavens
He begins his climb
his hands soon bloodied, his fingers digging into the hardened stone

He continues to drag himself
against the crags that scrape against his peeling skin
Unwilling to end his climb prematurely
though the rocks continue to slice into his flesh

Blood is drawn with a single desperate gasp
as pain rings out throughout his frame
His feet tremble and his hands grow numb
but still he continues to climb ever higher...

The winds threaten to throw him from the face of the mountain
and they slowly begin to waste him away
His bod

My Unbroken Hero

My Unbroken Hero

I didn't want you to stoop so low
Though your gentle grip was amazingly tight
I thought you were eventually going to let me go
But I finally realized you were holding on to me for dear life

My gratitude does not out-weigh my guilt
For I don't know what it's like to remain strong
Every time I try and stand up I always need to be held
So I know a person cannot keep that tough-act up for long

I wish the tables can soon be turned / my hidden courage needs to be found
The hope you gave me will be returned / to stop your tears from hitting the ground

I know your smiles are forced sometimes / you always have to watch your

Child PreyChild Prey:

He sat in his corner
Like a cold winter horror
The child that has turned out this way...

As a boy he was painted
By your lies he was tainted
Now in the devil's grip he'll stay...

Though you plead as you might
You've caused your own plight
I'm afraid that you die tonight...

It's a pitiful sight
When things are set right
For only in death can you see this light...

"Now then, move along sir, I've got other souls to welcome to hell..."

-Chen Yuan Wen, 14th April 2012

Wings of DespairWings of Despair:

A momentary glance toward the birds in the sky;
Makes me feel like I am soaring; with a hope to fly.
But the chilling winds that wrap me, reflect the cold of this day
And the icy frost that batters me, chips me away...

It drains the very breath from me, as though the ice is locked within
I feel my hope is fading again; like a jar of captured wind...
Where once my will was strong and boundless; now it sits on broken wastes
I must admit this crushing despair, it feels as bad as it tastes....

From the moment that I acquired them, these were ugly tattered wings
They were made from my despair, and bound in bitter string

Whispers of the MadWhispers of the Mad:

Your lips remain painted with the scars of torment
Carved so as to split with every word of speech
The glass that slices through your softened flesh
Bears the marking we know as 'Vinashuka'

And now he lies beneath the falling sand
Drowning in a world that is sinking away
Though his feet will seek the stability of ground
He finds himself caught by 'Vinashuka'

A disturbing word that rings hollow at best
For it carries the tone of a tainted solitude
A heart that has been corrupted by physical pain
Can only scream 'Vinashuka!'

How does a man know when he has gone insane?
To descend into a world where logic is na

Aura: The Radiance

I wore this pain like a crown / I was so broken
I kept on falling down / I felt my soul shattering

I couldn't hear anything / listening to my own twisted thoughts
I was blinded from everything / witnessing my own tragic downfall

I stopped dreaming of better days / I ceased believing long ago
My countless nightmares wouldn't fade / I was left in this dark world alone

I guess this is how I really pictured my own end
I just want it to finally be over with, I won't resent death

To the end of this long, and lonely road
Dangling on my unfinished rope

Lift me up, lift me up, lift me up, and don't let me go!
Hold me hig

Who needs friends?

A good enemy is better than a best friend
A good enemy can't betray
A good enemy won't go away
A good enemy will be there at the end

A best friend will fail
A best friend tells you what to think
A best fiend pushes you to the brink
A best friend will bail

A good enemy pushes you forward
A good enemy tests your steel
A good enemy makes you real
A good enemy seeks no reward

A best friend makes demands
A best friend always judges
A best fiend holds grudges
A best friend won't withstand

With an enemy you know they hate you
With a friend you are not sure
To an enemy you can be true
When they run you through
It won't be from beh

No More Therapy

No More Therapy

Nothing works anymore
I knew it all along; the end is near
I've said it once and I've said it before
I was never meant to exist; I was not meant to be here

Hated by all / See me fall
Loved by none / Heart is numb
Rejected by life / Fallen from strife
From this- I've become / After this- I'm done

Through this blame
Is the choice
Of my decision

Hear the pain
In my voice
I am suffering
-
I no longer could drown out the sounds
Swallowed from within
I was surrounded by an internal doubt
Regretting everything

Remember the days
Relive the nights
Of my shame
In my mind

Growing up in society
I got lost
Being raised with hypocrisy

Ashes Of Tomorrow

Ashes Of Tomorrow

I can destroy what I create
If I really, and truly wanted to
I can light these feelings ablaze
If I didn't want anymore support from you

I barely stop myself time and time again
I realize there's a sense of cruelty in all of us
It's just that feeling, everything might be in vain
When tempted at breaking down those barriers of trust

To jeopardize all of the triumphs
I want to be the one who is blamed
The fire will reach the sky, and become my guidance
I want to be swallowed by my own inner, selfish flames
-
I sit behind the scenes of my friendships
Alone, with a fake smile on my face
That old feeling of lonel

This is All About YouThis Is All About You:

Most people giving you advice, might take a quote from a book

Most people giving you advice, have never had a real look

So from someone who's been watching, let me lay my heart bare

I want to show you all the special things, about the girl for whom I care

She always does her very best, no matter how tough the task

Even when she's struggling, she puts on a brave mask

She's always trying to learn new things, just for a chance to make you proud

She can be a little bit quiet, but I think that's better than being loud

She's not the very best in sports, I know she can be kind of a klutz

But she smiles and goes on an

Reaching For A Mirror

Reaching For A Mirror

Listen, sooner or later you're going to have to look me in the eyes, it's unavoidable
It's going to be that time when you let your guard down, your reaction will be recognizable
I don't know if you're able to face me yet, but you need an intervention, because this is personal
You're not going to like what I have to say to you, I know you're going to resist, you're so predictable
-
What exactly do you know? You know NOTHING! Because left you a long time ago
We don't need to talk, you don't even really exist to me, you don't have power anymore
There's nothing you can say to me that might help, not even by a little

Healing My Heart

Healing My Heart

I thought a day like today would never come
When a sincere smile finally broke through
And I've grasped onto this sense of freedom
When I forged this connection with you

I was so deep into it
Thinking I never would get out
Being stuck in the past has made me into this
But now I hold my head up instead of facing down

Because of this, I've realize there's a difference between my tears
I used to only shed the ones for all of the mistakes I've made
Which I've cried for all of those long, and lonesome years
Until today, so I'm overwhelmed by the relief you gave

Undone, unvexed, unbroken
The difference is t

Aura: The Respark

Aura: The Respark

_{I, the sheltered child who started to tragically fall from your grace}

Into the void of this sudden loneliness
Realizing I followed every single one of your steps
But yet, I failed to hold onto those uplifting moments

Now I feel as if maybe I had forced you to make every one of those promises
That   which   you   still   kept

So I don't want to sound dishonest, but out of us, you are the strongest
You   make   sure   to   protect

To you, everyone, and everything is dearest
None   left   to   neglect

But with all of that, you take on those heavy burdens
And   try   your   best

Calling out your name into the nothingness
Forgetting about the peace you bestowed upon me
I guess it's just too hard to be away from your embrace

_{I, the wayward child who has regretfully fallen astray}
-
_{You, the selfless protector who has done everything}

Lending your gentle hands wherever it's needed
Without limiting the extent of your kindness
It's as if the hope you carry is boundless

So rare for someone to know nothing of greed
It's   never   for   your   own   benefit

It's hard to find someone who truly believes
Giving   up   on   no-one   just   yet

Forever passing on the luxury of relief
Such   importance   of   every   single   friend

You just absorb all of the consuming grief
Yet   you   have   nothing   to   resent

Looking out for those who are in need
Sometimes one desires a comforting shoulder to weep
But you consider all only human, for there is no such thing as weak

_{You, the kindhearted protector who asks for nothing}
-
_{I, the lost child who is longing to reunite}

Looking for the light that I used to know
For I can no longer stand here alone
And this may be far as I can go

I know you would never let me fall on purpose
Get   rid   of   this   stinging   doubt

You're looking for me, I'm certain
The   love   I   cannot   go   without

Though I don't want to be another problem
Maybe   it's   best   to   give   up   now

A hero like yourself is not always perfect
Mistakes   should   be   allowed   to   the   devout

You need to know I still want you in my life
Because I still need your shoulder to cry on sometimes
I'm not ready to be away from you yet, so I'm going to brighten up the night

_{I, the shimmering-eyed child who will respark the lost light}

I know you'd help me find the way
Yearning for the moments where I take your hand again
I believed in you the entire time
Desiring to once again see your light
