Is it really a win?
❦
There were days simply surviving was a huge win
And it turned into 1% better everyday was a win
Now I don’t want myself to be seen again
I ripped my life apart
Harder than you ripped my heart apart
So the scales won’t blame on your heart
What do you do when you have no life to live
In fact you have to live!
What do I do
Star gazing, writing, drawing,
Drinking, meditating, mountain climbing
You name it, I did them all
Spent weeks with monkeys and leeches
Trying to find myself again,
As if there was anything left to find
I did two things,
The most terrible and the most precious
I took my life and gave birth to another
To someone supposed not to know you
Jesus turned water into vine
I wanted to turn you into mine
I think my mind was nine
No don’t ask, now I’m (not) fine
I met someone!
No no no, I can’t fall in love
She was casted from heaven to stole my heart
I’m falling! Wait, I pinched myself to wake up
And Cleaned my glasses
To see through the daydreams I’ve being seen
Days, weeks, months
and eventually turn into years of time
The more you hate, the more I love
You still visit me in dreams somehow
‘Turn her into literature’
What else can I really do?
But to write poems about me and you
You… You! Yes you!
Now I ask myself, is it really a win,
When you’re not my next of kin
I’m getting bad at this now
Perhaps I was never good,
I’m many things but not a poet
I’m gonna keep writing to you anyhow
I can’t give you moon or stars
But I give you my heart,
For it lives inside of me
The greatest thing I can offer
And you’ll never need a key
To set me free…
