Dear My Universe

My favorite song, I dedicate to you.

In reflection of your honest

Heart and heartfelt actions.

Indeed, as I walk the streets

Filled with your words and memories

I can only remember this:

I will be the greatest fan of your life.


In the quiet dawn, my tears fall for you.

As I remember our promises,

Our dreams which divided our paths.

The street of broken hearts,

That we walked that long-ago night.

A long moment of falling snow,

As you asked me to stay. Stay.


In the darkness of the pre-dawn, I miss you.

I replay your words in my mind

And wished I answered yes. Yes.

And let you get closer to me,

Holding me tight during the winter nights.

I regret this now, this wretched habit

Of pushing away, even when I wanted to stay.


Lost in the memories, your eyes become my map.

If I come back, will you lead me again

Back into your embrace?

I am tired of  wandering through the galaxy

And never finding you where I need you.

Do you feel the same pain?

As if it was yesterday that we walked away.


Did you find your answers, away from me?

Were the stars brighter on your end?

These roads we took, did you discover

The missing dot on your road to greatness?

I cry, because all I did was miss you.

My world change, but not for the better.

I want you back, shake my world once again.


Stay. I ask you to stay. 

Let's not take each other for granted again.

In a galaxy filled with wild shooting stars,

Let us stay together and be brighter still.

Turn this broken road into our own universe.

Let us be the warmth in each other's winter rain.

Hold each other tighter, even in the dark.

Burn Those Bridges

Stop! Stop! Stop!
Save yourself and do not fall
For that sweet trap.
Run away and call backup
Get away from here
Quickly! Quickly!
The moment you stay,
You're gonna stay for life.

Eyes Off Of You

It was like destiny when we first saw each other.
In the midst of the confusing lights and darkness
I saw your face with the brightest smile,
Couldn't help but stare and stare;
They had to nudge me awake,
But I couldn't take my eyes off of you.


You were like a painting in the wind.
I wanted to jump just so I could catch you.
Protect you, keep you in my embrace
Hide this precious gem from the world.
Crush you, and have you all to myself.
Have no one snatch you away.

Don't Step Away



We promised forever that starry night
The next days were like a fairy tale
A never-ending dream that I begged for.
I did not want to wake up--
You are my beautiful sleepless dream.


The dream stretched and stretched
It was my one desire for it never to end.
Your smile brightened each morning
Your laughter brought light to the night.
I'll forever keep you here by my side.


Lost in each other, we grew closer
And closer still. Nothing too banal
For these two weirdos who laugh and cry
About everything and nothing.
Crazily normal we spent each day.


Suddenly the sweet dream turned
Into a nightmare that we could barely contain.
We held to each other, fighting,
Trying to control the fears and pains.
Wishing for the suffering to end.


Together we bent, we cried, we stood.
I carried you in your moments,
You lifted me up in my miseries.
Our dreams contained in our clasping hands.
Chasing a future, unsure, but with courage.


Limitations, possibilities, solutions
We suffered and conquered it all
We tried not to fall, time and again.
But when we did, we struggled to dream
Again. Again. Again.


You are brave, my sweet love
Braver than I--time and again.
You fought with me, for me, and against me.
I fought with you, for you and against you.
Through it all, we dwelled in our dream.


Together we stumbled, together we rose.
There were times when I was afraid,
I was too weak, and scared that you will
Run away, and leave me by myself.
I wanted to say: Don't step away. No.


Then I saw you step. Step. Step.
It was like the beginning of the end of me.
But you were there, closer and closer.
Holding out your hand to me.
You are my never-ending dream.
