Love Without Hope

Do not be harsh; even if wounds were born,
Being left alone; and completely torn. 
Do not tell me; whether I should or not,
Because you may conform; but I do not.

For Love and Hate Pantoum

Scared of falling
Cause I’ve been there
And even if you were dying
I was already dead

I don’t wanna go back
For I know you don’t care
But in case you crack
I'd probably be fair

Fair for the love I’m feeling
Even though you never felt
But there wouldn’t be healing
That’s something I can bet.

I know you wouldn’t catch me
For I felt and you weren’t there
But If you want a calm sea
I'll try and stop the air.

101 Pantoum

A hundred reasons of why you loved me
And a hundred reasons of why I left
Lovely smiles haunted by a charming spree
Has turned into me now being bereft.

Trapped inside a deceiving fairytale
Your presence kept me from falling apart
Just like boats always are expected to sail
You required to rip my innocent heart.

No matter how many times you don’t jump
Whether how much you poorly scratch your soul
The cliff expects for you to hear a plump
Because at the end the point is to shoal.

Is not forever but a bunch of nows
So stuck in your chest that you can not breathe
Where there is broken souls it never allows
To live or die for you ought to wreathe.

With Or Without

I'm giving up on you, 
it is not because I want to, 
but because it is not fair 
how you never noticed I had always been there. 

May walking under the moon,  
how well we were strewn 
I was scared and you were too
but I noticed I was safe with you. 

I wish I knew
purity it's not always true
demons can look like angels
and rip off all our written pages.

We were so hollow
without a path to follow
you think I don't remember,
but how can I forget when you decided to surrender.


You gave me that fire
that used to put me into a mire
even if it wasn’t real
you’d always make me keel.

How we would collapse,
Always a never ending lapse, 

Got lost weeping
that I never saw your bleeding  
your feelings faded apart
And I always knew that.

Despite the pain
you could have stopped the rain
but you did not care
leaving my heart bare.

After all the rocks you threw me 
and the nights I didn’t flee,
I felt again for your sprawl 
allowing you to appall.

But I appreciate,
because I gained a new trait
Forgiving and not looking back,
Cause while doing it you may not find your way back.
