I Age

Between us there is only place for tears and sighs
I’m right you wrong
I can’t stand that
I can’t stand this
I’m the queen
I'm superior
I'm the star
I’m the sun
I'm perfect
I'm better
I want
I need
I’m it
I.... 
I....
I...

All the sudden our world is full of "i"s
The u in us is now just two disjointed "i"s
All is fading, so is it worth it to keep the ties
When the love is long gone from each other eyes

I’m jealous of the us who used to touch the skies
Flying free, careless and happy like butterflies
Just two souls that didn’t care about the why's
Focusing on creating a world free of lies.

Now all the beauty is replaced by hidden guise.
That pride and prejudgments have jeopardize.
The us that once Inspired other’s envies, now agonize
and we’ve just became two specimens that others analyze.

I hate the "i" that refuses to understand the ultimate demise 
the “I” that keeps hoping and begging for a last reprise
Blinded by a love that will no longer compromise 
too afraid to see IT was something “I” fictionalize

I loathe the stubborn “i” that keeps you paralyze
The biases that push you to always scrutinize
The purest soul tendered with no disguise
The “i” in you that no longer sympathize

I’m afraid of the "i” who’s ready to finalize
Of all the voices that pushes me to soliloquize
Screaming, yelling, and telling me to finally realize
It was just make believe, one soul “i” over romanticize

No need playing the blame games or trying to ostracize
There’s always later, maybe time will help it stabilize
There is always a lifetime to try until tomorrow dies
Until there is no time and nothing else to revitalize

You.... 
You....
You...
You’re it
You need
You want 
You’re better
You’re perfect
You’re the sun
You’re the star
You’re superior
You’re the queen
You can’t stand this
You can’t stand that
You’re right I’m wrong
Does it matter if at the end we are saying our goodbyes.

Unconditional

I asked you to let me
be your comfort when in pain
love you when all is hate
carry the hurts that is holding you back
be the tears that transform into smiles
but you chose to let pride and fear be in control

You asked me to 
Be the rock that keeps you grounded
But to be still and watch your agony
Share your joy but hide from your pain
let you push me away amidst thunders
But I chose to stay and be a silent presence

You have it… my soul or my heart
Near you, I feel every single past ache and emotion
Every sad look like a blade cutting my soul
But your smiles is worth a thousand cuts
You have me… and I'll always be there for your needs
All I want is to help you carry your sorrows

I have it…a small piece of your soul or heart
Though you have long claimed and enslaved mine
Yet you don’t understand the connections
Blinded by fear and previous deceptions
You stand on the verge of caution
Not realizing every other love pale in comparison 

When I slip you feel
The curse of damnation like it was all an illusion
That the purest of all love becomes nothing but a dream
And everlasting love only last an instant
I can’t blame you for caution and self-preservation
But I can’t be condemned for others’ past transgression

When you slip I feel
devastated but never disappointed or betrayed
because no offense is too big to let go and forgive
No matter how its hurt is better to have you
Because you are worth a thousand fights
and to have you is to hold you endlessly

You say love is pain and don’t last forever
It only brings doubt, shame, betrayed, and despair
It makes your heart angry and brings you daily disappointment
It only provides a fake blanket of security
It is a two- edged sword that cut deeper than deception
You feel you can live better without it

I say Love is eternal when it’s nurture for eternity
But when neglected it can be futile and ephemeral
Yet I rather live in the illusion of forever than the constant doubt of what ifs
I believe every joyful second with you is worth a million pains
Even if you let go I’ll still love knowing you and loving you
As memories of you will fill my empty days of pain with bittersweet bliss

You ask me to be your rock
I’ll be the constant wall you can always lean on 
I’ll be a better constant than change if you let me
My love cut deep and so much stronger than yours
Yet I won’t let go of what my soul have claimed
Because you are worth one thousand fights

but I won’t hold you back
If freedom from my love
Will make you happy....

Steps

It’s over! Is your last sentence and final sentence.
You accused me of pushing you through the edges
Every time you’re giving up, I make a new entrance
Every steps closer is ruined by a thousand wedges
To remove my skeletons you need a stronger dredge
You tired of trying and overlooking my hawthorn hedge
In my vulnerability my guards are up or so you allege
My impenetrable walls constantly keep you up at night
You are done and you refuse to do one more pledge
You said it: the grasp of my past still hold me tight


Your eyes and your kisses melt away my prudence 
Each touch makes me want to skip too many bridges
All these walls built for a better and stronger resistance
Your wit lightened my days and remove my trudges
Your smile lessen pains that I have yet to acknowledge
In your arms there's no doubt and no unwanted gledge
Your heat consumed me but don’t remove my privilege
Yet every time you step too close to my heart, I flight
Even when I know the pain instilled cut like razor-edge
Yes again: the grasp of my past is still a stronger fright

I have experienced the youthful and joyful exuberance
The blissful impudence pushing to take on Everest’s ridges 
I’ve repeatedly been through the high of new romance
It always ended up in dysfunctional and painful smidges.
Each time my heart is abandoned like a broken sledge
So I can’t stop wondering if that soul willingly impledged
Isn’t a phantom of my past pushing me over one more ledge
For I have met you in another pretty face and amazing sight
But I was left with pain and unhealable scars, I acknowledge
You are right: the wounds of my past sill hold me in affright.

I can’t promise a better tomorrow without yesterday’s edge
I can’t crumple the walls that have worked to my advantage
But if you take me through the steps I’ll make it thru the night
I’ll follow your lead step by step, I know you and I can manage
Maybe the love in your eyes is enough to bring me to daylight.

Pssssssssssst

Hey let me holla at you to alleviate your frustration
Stand still it will only take a moment of your attention
Look, I hear your cries but I don’t want any explanation
I just wanna be fair and clear in my summation:

What I was in love with was your presentation
Because you never showed me your true intention
Stoned, amazed, but I’m not hurt by the realization
Part of me have long foresee your treason

You think I got played, but here is your failed realization:
We were both playing the game of love and devotion.
I will be lying to admit any tear of desperation
Seeing your true color has brought me liberation

Hey! I should have never lower my expectation
Wasting time going through all this commotion
When you spent all your time throwing accusation
While I was going through the process of elimination.

So sad that your betrayal did not evoke any emotion
I guess you were never worth my time and attention
Can’t help that you were never the object of my fascination
It’s not my fault you never knew how to keep my admiration

Now that is over you wanna write me a dissertation
Crying, begging, and blaming all the creation
But it’s too late! You should’ve learned life’s biggest lesson:
Never ever let go of the brightest star in a constellation.

No more talking. I’m over your desecration
This is the end there is no need for elongation
Letting go have brought me to a new exhilaration
Free at last! You’re a past chapter closed without hesitation.
