I, somehow tried to rebuild,
But then, I realized they don't deserve it.
“They burned the bridge, then ask why I don’t visit.”

Castle on an Island
I have never felt protected for a long time.
That feeling is becoming strange, unfamiliar.
So my walls now are getting taller and thicker.
I have built my fortress, and I feel safer here.
Living here alone
Is lonely yet peaceful.
I am fine.
But, I don't want to become a castle on an island.

March is miserable;
April is cruel.
How love turned the tide
And the flood to subside?
Like a bird after the storm,
You sing around telling me that I no longer need to mourn.
But little did I know that you're careless and free.
You here, for now, but someday, you will leave me.
Like the star in my sky.
You shine bright in my naked eye.
I hope I can place you on my wall.
Because I know, someday, you will have to fall.
I hope you're the moon to my sun—
Constant, and it can't be separated by anyone.
You'll be here with me for eternity,
Though this is just a wish I made for you and me.

You can make your mind think whatever you want to believe, but you can never force you heart to feel what it doesn't feel.

Dear Self,
I'm sorry for ignoring you.
We haven't talked the way we used to.
You're hurt, but I didn't care.
When you feel alone, I wasn't even there.
And when you're happy,
I always thought a stroke of bad luck was going to happen.
I'm sorry for doubting you,
Thinking that you won't make it through.
Sometimes, I think you're a freak,
Unloved and pathetic.
I'm sorry for not taking care of you.
I forgot that you have weaknesses, too.
I'm sorry if you have to celebrate your birthday alone.
It's just me, being me like you've always known.
But as you grow older today,
Please listen to what I am going to say.
This time, I promise to love you more.
I'll never ignore you or doubt you anymore.
I will give you the happiness that you deserve.
Put God first, and I will put you first.
I will listen to you,
And be with you until you break through.
So now, be free like the wind.
Fly high with the eagle's wings.
Face the rising sun,
And don't stop dreaming even if you are known to none.
Be strong and bolder.
Take your arrow and aim higher.
You still have a long way to go,
So keep moving and allow yourself to grow.
You're not alone.
So cry no more. I got you!

If loneliness has a name,
it could be mine.
If the falling stars could cry,
I think they'll weep a river, too.
If they fall, they will be like the flowers in the wilderness---
unseen, unloved, and alone.
Fate is cruel.
Life is a mystery.
Chasing dreams is like chasing shadows
or hiding when the sun is high---
It's useless.
We live in this unfamiliar realm
where we don't know if the future does exist.

Dandelions
She's not just an ordinary flower.
She grows on her own.
She's something that doesn't need to be taken care of
To bloom and live.
She's everywhere.
In lawns,
Roadsides,
Forests,
And meadows.
She's a wildflower.
But she's something that you can depend on
For she is a symbol of hope, love, and happiness.
She's something that you can count on for your wishes.
Her petals are as bright as the sun.
And just like how after the sun sets,
The moon rises.
Her white puff balls shine after her petals fall.
To some, she's just a weed— an unloved flower.
But little do they know, she's a flower of life, too.
She may be just a wildflower.
But it takes an extraordinary person to appreciate her beauty.

There are no heroes.
"The problem with 'good' and 'bad' is it blinds you to the aspects of being human. People are may, many things, but never wholly good or entirely bad."

There is a ship, and she sails on sea.
She's loaded deep, as deep can be.
But not as deep as the love I'm in.
I know not how I sink or swim.
The water is wide, I can't cross over.
And neither have I wings to fly.
Give me a boat that can carry two
And both shall row, my love and I.
{The Water is Wide Lyrics}
