When you fall in love, again.

You thought,
When you fall in love, again,
You are wiser,
Know you aren't,
You are of no wiser.

You are,
In love,
with someone right.

Am I numb?

If I can ever write how disappointed I was,
Maybe words won't be enough,
Scratches of all memories,
and the beat in my heart,
Little and little...
Slower and slower...
It loses its pace,
and I know not, what it means by heartache?
Does it hurts?

What if...
if, the cut stops inflicting pain,
if, the smile doesn't really amplify happiness,
if, the tears are really of no value,
if, the steps I pave just because I'm alive.
What if, I already feel enough of something I need not?

Of too much,
I forget what the feel of living without,
Am I numb?
Nope.
Am not, I still feel,
I feel nothing.

A dream, in reality.

To dream in the reality; like the haze,
the cloudiness blurs your eyes,
sores your throat,
but when you stretch your hand to grasp,
it is,
a mere nothing; untouchable,
but remains,
visible.

Put off the dreams into sleep,
hug those only in your closed eyes,
see the world as an open book, a story of life,
a drama of reality, of no false fables,
at where fairytale is an ecstasy.

because those dreams in your closed eyes;
there's no hatred,
no antagonists to bleed you,
there's no imperfection.

Put off the dreams in your closed eyes,
See the world of reality;
at where people don't always dance in the rain,
at where people live for a living, not a life.

Put off the dreams in your closed eyes,
Live life of no perfection,
Break the entangled Angle's wings at your back,
Be notorious.
