Shadows fills the sky.
Dark clouds, covering the sun.
The sky is crying.

Wounded and in pain,
Let us both forget the nightmares of yesterday.
Brave and determined,
Let us face what we fear most, today.
Hopeful and passionate,
Let us dream and yearn for what may come to us tomorrow.
Together,
Let us escape through time and learn what it means to be happy.

An unclear pathway
About an unseen future
Disturbs one's weak heart.

In this darkness
Where the world is covered in lies and deceit,
We held on to each other
Like there's no tomorrow.

The blood covered streets,
Where the difference between morality and not,
Is but a thin line of thread
That warps each and every one of us.

We screamed at the top of our lungs,
Yet our screams merely echoes around these thick walls.
No one knows who's at the other side.
Or is there someone at the other side?

Doubt started to haunt us.
And that bond we use to call friendship
Became nothing more than a memory
As we stabbed on each other for survival.

The warm fluid that covers our hands,
Are what tells us of our life's story.
The bodies that laid before us,
Are the living proof of our faded memory.

Last night, I dreamt of you.
A figure, I've always knew.
Like an angel you touched my face,
Gliding through the wind with grace.

You reached out your hand and smiled sweetly,
I was swept away, completely.
We held hands and danced together.
It felt like I could be with you forever.

I woke up with my face wet with tears,
Feeling the sharp pain as it pierce.
I stare blankly to the ceiling,
Wanting to rid myself of this feeling.

Outside, there's a heavy rain.
Perhaps, the night sky shares my pain.
This coldness that I feel
Is what verifies me that this pains is real.

Goodbye, my love.
You were all that I wanted to have.
You're warm hands, I dreamed to touch,
You're sweet voice, I wished to hear so much.

Sweet rose, I want to stay true.
And wished we could always be with you.
Beautiful prince, sleep well.
I love you, farewell.

--

For Jasmine You.

Rest in peace, my prince. I love you, farewell.

Please don't take it!

Each time I try to fly, I fall off the sky.
Each time I try to climb, I slip down the ground.
Each time I try to run, I stumble and wound myself.
Each time I get up, my legs get numb.

Each time I wanted to scream, I run out of voice.
Each time I dream, I suddenly wake up.
Each time I try smile, my tears just fall down.
And each time I cry, I feel even more helpless.

In each of those times,  I try to reach you.
You were too high, you walked too fast.
In each of those times, I wanted you to hear me.
You are too far, you were too occupied.

I'm not going nuts,
Oh, no, I'm not!
I've already had a screw loose
Quite some time ago.

My puppet master thought it was okay.
That it's not really harmful
And he shall fix me later,
Yes, just a little while later.

Later turned into hours,
And hours turned into days.
I was left alone to run around,
And I played a lot, yes, I played!

Alas he paused for a while
And thought he would fix the poor me.
Too bad he never got the chance,
Oh, no, he never did.

Red fluid came out from his body
They are warm and overflowing.
I wanted to see more, more!
I grabbed the knife again.

I thought he would cry.
Oh, tears, I want to see.
But all I heard was a loud scream -
Sweet sounds of agony.

I stabbed him and I stabbed him.
Again and again, yes, I did.
Because I found his little life
Quite an interesting play thing.

He stopped moving,
Oh yes, he did.
I poke him and poke him,
But now, doesn't breathe.

I'm not broken,
Cant you people see?
I'm still quite whole,
Just a little loose and free.

When everything you held on to
Crumbles like a sand castle at the beach,
I would rebuild your castle for you
Like a king who's afraid of nothing,
Like a warrior who'll give his everything.

When everything you treasure most
Slowly dies in front of you,
I would breathe life into them
Like some god from an unknown place,
Like some devil who haunts your soul.

When you close your eyes to run away
From the world that's full of lies,
I would held you tight in my arms
Like a mother would with her child,
Like a lover filled with passion.

And at the end of the day
When you're tired and needed rest,
I would lay your head gently and tuck you in
To a bed filled with the roses that you love,
And sprinkle tears to them everyday.

Soon, a day will come
When you would look back at me,
With the sweetest smile in your lips.
And whisper to my ears those gentle words
That you have rest peacefully.

There you were lying so comfortably
In the couch beside the window.
With a fix gaze up on the ceiling,
As if thinking of something deep,
As if dreaming of something grand,
Staring into nothing at all.

You lighted your favorite cigarette
With that same lighter you usually carry around.
As always, you used your left hand to smoke.
And you gently closed your eyes as you breathe in.
When you exhale the smoke and slowly opened your eyes,
It was as if you're letting go of everything.

You started strumming that worn out guitar
That was lying in your lap for hours.
You tapped it gently with your long fingers,
And you seemed to enjoy every bit of its vibrations.
Faintly, you started to hum an unknown song.
As if you never wanted anyone to hear it.

The room's ambiance started to change.
From the window, there was a beautiful scene of a sunset.
The proud sun smiled at you and waved goodbye.
And it left a trail of bright orange that glittered like tiny jewels in the sky.
A warm light kindly hit your face,
As your shadow from the floor started to grow in pace.

I love it when you just lay there on the couch,
With a guitar on your lap,
Smoking your favorite cigarette,
And staring at nothing at all.
I love it when I hear that faint humming,
And the you beside that sunset was stunning.

When your enchanting silver dress
Turns back into dirty rags,
When your prince never arrived
To wake you up with a kiss,
Always remember that inside the deep forest
There's a tiny hut where you can run into.

When your castle that's made of gold
Crumbles into tiny pieces of stones,
When both of your healthy feet
Turned back into a tail that's full of scales,
Remember that inside the deep deep forest,
There's a hut where you can find shelter into.

When the clock strikes twelve
And all the magic turns into dusts,
When no matter how much you cry and plead,
Fairy godmother can't be found,
Remember that inside the deep deep forest
There's always a hut where you can find comfort.

Though it's walls are only made of cheap woods,
And it's roof is made only of straw,
Though it may not have all the things wanted,
And it may not grant your every wish,
The hut would remain there inside the deep forest
To shelter you when you have nowhere to go.

Even if because of your happiness, you forget,
Still, deep inside that dark and gloomy forest,
There's always a tiny peasant hut that waits.
It's the only place where you can find someone
Who would smile for you, when all else neglects you
So brightly that it fills your heart with warmth inside.

I wanted to be that tiny hut for you to return to,
When you're wounded and couldn't stand.
But I could only be the wind that follows you around
Who could only listen to your sorrows unknowingly,
And softly whisper at your ears words you couldn't hear,
And painfully drift as I slowly fade away.
