It's easy to dream Especially when you're sleeping. It's easy because Nobody's peeking. It's easy to let Your guard down, When even you have no control To give the dream a frown. It's easy So we do it. Not once, not twice, As many times as it may hit. What's difficult is To dream awake. [...]

Like No One’s Looking
I was always so concerned With what others thought That I forgot About myself. What a shame that was! I was always so restricted With how I conducted myself That I forgot About breathing. What a shame that was! I was always trying to be one With the person I should be That I forgot [...]
What are You Made of?
Let me ask you, If I may, If you can take it, What are you made of? Not the scientific answer, Not the philosophic dream, But at your very core, What are you made of? Not what Mommy said, Not what Daddy trained, But what was always there, What are you made of? Not who [...]

Doomed
I knew you were the doom That was to befall me, The moment I saw you, The moment I fell in love, Yes, I was doomed. I knew only destruction Could come out of 'us' But I could not help it, But I still wanted to live it. Yes, I was doomed. I knew we [...]

When Writers Bleed
More often than not,Writers bleed.They bleed like hell.They bleed like it's the end of the world.At least, all the good ones do. More often than not,It's courtesy their heart.Hearts more sensitive than others',Hearts they have no control over.At least, that's what they say. More often than not,Writers recover also quickly.It's not like they have another [...]
