I miss you-Still- AlwaysIt’s been three years.?
And I can breathe again—
?most days.?
I smile without faking it,?
laugh without guilt.?
I’ve grown.?
I’ve lived.?
I’ve kept going.
But then,?a photo falls out of a drawer,
?or a song finds its way through the static,?
and suddenly I’m back—?
not broken,?
but bruised.?
Not drowning,
?but still feeling the weight?
of everything I can’t say to you.
It doesn’t hurt like it used...

Astrophilia
When mother asked me
what I dreamed of becoming,
I never thought I’d say:
an astronomer.
But here I am:
hair undone, in a wine-blotched slip
tracking you,
the moon around my earth.
I didn’t plan on this, but
I know I’m doomed to be fascinated
by how the nebula behind you quietly blossoms—
It ignites your hair, which I’ve imagined
to be velvet against my fingers.
I...

Taiwan, My BrotherIn the flowing scroll of time, said Confucius, blood remembers where it came from. The mountain does not forget the stone, nor does the sea deny its river. You, Taiwan—jade carved from the same dragon—why drift like a petal in foreign wind?
Does not the moon rise over both your skies? Do not ancestors whisper from...

HomesickThey say home is where the heart is
But you have flown across an ocean
You're something I'm blessed to miss
We will make it through all of the commotion
But when I come home, I'm never letting you go
When you're back in my arms, I'll be home again I know
A year from home is a lot, my dear
I'm...

My HeartThere's a hole in my chest
My heart's flown away
My eyes tire from crying and crave rest
The hole burns all day
My world's gone sideways, now at a slant
I am missing my heart
But it stays with you while I can't
The pain leaves a flavor sour and tart
The feeling of a missing piece of me
Burns less than that...

Some DayMy skin misses the feeling of your touch
Your fingers trailing lines of love
But we aren't as far as we seem
I look up and it's the same sun you see above...

All of Me Misses YouMy hand longs to hold yours once more
My arms mourn the loss of your embrace
My lips wait to kiss those they adore
My mind plays images of your face
My stomach lacks the butterflies
That once ran rampant with you
It's something with goodbyes
They will do that to you
Ever part of me knows something is gone
I know you're far...

Time and SpaceI bring you to a place
Where between us
Is time and space
So far away
Though I wish it not
And always ahead a day
This place is loud
It's thunder claps
It's screams in a crowd
It's violent and bold
It's waves crashing
It's fire taking hold
It's quiet and shape
It's a dagger and a blade
It's haunting notes on a harp
It's thoughts screaming
It's silence deafening
It's...

I'll never forgetI'll never forget
Vs 1
Your things are gone, You've moved away...
I only have myself to blame...
I call your number, but it's changed...
I can't get over, all of my shame
Bridge
Why can't you please forgive me?
I just can't live without you near me!
Chorus
I'll never forget, just how much we cared...
I'll never forget, all the love we shared...
I'll never...

I want to spend my life with youI want to spend my life with you,
Through times of red, of green and blue.
For the sunset dance, and midnight walks,
For never ending and the deepest talks.
Red days for adventure, a passion for life,
To dance forever, into the sun filled night.
Seeing the sun, rise from your eyes,
To light up horizons, of pastel skies.
Green for peace,...

In a bed made of iceI never thought about this time,
Neither I planned it,
And here I am;
Inside of a wave,
That’s pushing me by.
And the fight is reigning,
Even though I’d never wanted to war;
And the tears are falling,
Even though I never thought I wanted to cry.
The veil of the night,
It’s covering my eyes,
And the voice of despair;
Leaves me alone,
In a bed...

Forever and AlwaysWhen I open my eyes, I want to see you next to me,
Forever and always.
Your arms are where I belong, in the darkest of nights and in morning's dew.
So, night and day, we are friends and lovers, forever and always.
"I love you" is a mistake I'll make; my heart belongs to you forever and always.

Formal IntroductionsI don’t know you anymore
it took nine months
I don’t know you anymore
and yet I’ve known you my whole life
I don’t know you anymore
i came with expectations
I don’t know you anymore
you had different aspirations
I don’t know you anymore
and the new things people ask me about
I don’t know you anymore
i wonder if people ever ask you...

Heart breakHeart break.
It’s not just a feeling, it mentally messes you up. Heartbreak is so strong, it’s like a pain in your chest that won’t go away, it’s like you can physically feel your heart splitting in two. I wish I didn’t know how it felt to have your heart broken but unfortunately I do so...

Red DogLoyal, docile, obedient dog
Why did you leave me all alone?
Now I'm a sheep with red wool,
And maybe it's your fault.
Fumbling sheep calls your name in the dark,
Not the one beside you.
Only the sheep with red wool
Wants to be there with you.
