Eye, Love, Pain

Yesterday the moon was at its
most beautiful. The color was very orange almost blood-red, as big as if it’s
giving so much
protection. I smile and just silently looked up at the clear
night sky, letting my mind roam
free.

Time is sliding away from my hands,
when she starts counting on my days I could never remember who I am and where
I’m standing. My life was nothing but a
big wide space to let people draw upon
it with their colors: black, grey, violet,
red and another black. What? Yes, I
still consider them as colors, so it is in my world and me as its monarch.
Where I could jump, scream, cry, pray, orgasm between my wisdom and even
afraid
of the nothingness
, it is all possible in my self-cocoon-shelter.

Away from realm world and step
into so-called-reality, I hear voices calling my name. Letter by letter, soft,
tender and addictive, please welcome love. He’s so gentle I could hang on to
him forever, never feel
bored or nauseous. But sometimes the love is so great
it brings me
fear. The fear of losing and left behind, the fear where I don’t
have myself anymore since the moment I’m giving in to his hands.Hug_me

Then start come pain, it grew
slowly, crawling
inertia creeps it began to nurture myself into someone fragile
and defenseless
. So confusing because that pain comes from the very same heart
at first giving me
comfort! Every power within just surrendering to it, leaving
no space to breathe or think or even dance to its death rhythm.

Life knew me so well, he told
time to stop for a while so I could think. Up in the roof-top, I just sit there
alone, listening to the sound of the night, my heart beating slowly almost in a
stop mode. Quite.
Peace. Nothing. From that nothing I have something to believe
in:
myself. From all the weary episodes of my life, I began to see my
interlude. I see that the love that we both develop is actually crystal clear
and very see through.

We always overlooked from the
very same spot we connected,
the vibe is there but we didn’t feel and listen.
That love is actually there, just like the truth everyone believes, so alive
like the air every creatures breathing. Even though we’re so different,
actually we have so many likenesses in each other.
A puzzle completes another.

Truth is painful, but it always
telling us the
right thing to do.

Cripple and The Starfish

I have learn few things regarding my new life with him. We have
shared every
thoughts, joy, pain, sadness, jokes, heart with all it complicated
meanings yet we understand each other.

Every hard times due to our unforgiven past has set us into
sweet trouble. But somehow we understand that two different individuals set
into one same relationship is the whole meaning of love, itself.

But sometime the love has turn out to be so enormous, I barely
cannot hold it alone. It set me trapped into a dependent person, dangling my
life on his hands, caring yet firm hands.

I released myself into words and music, and this track is
what I felt inside…deep inside.

Stingy thingy into little me, me, me

Filled with pain


And bruises

Yes, so Cripple-Pig was happy
Screamed " I just completely love you!
And there’s no rhyme or reason
I’m changing like the seasons
Watch! I’ll even cut off my finger

It will grow back like a Starfish!

It will grow back like a Starfish!
It will grow back like a Starfish!"
