Finding My Authentic

“Because I’m a dreamer And you were the fragments of dreams I hoarded.”

— What if you come true?

[complexedsimplicity]

Expecting rejection,

Hoping for a miracle.

Knowing the outcome doesn’t mean it’ll hurt less when you find out.

Knowing the final answer doesn’t mean you won’t feel the pain.

In 2019, I want to be me: Unapologetically Authentically Undeniably The real me.

My New Year’s Resolution

[complexedsimplicity]

I am not afraid to say

“I disagree”

anymore.

Because I’ve learned the value of my opinions.

They are just as valid as those of someone next to me.

[complexedsimplicity]

Solitude

When you push others away …

Soon,

You start to like being alone.

It’s peaceful.

You learn to grow strong.

And sometimes,

That’s all you need

To stand alone.

Peace, with being alone.

Strength, to stand alone.

[complexedsimplicity]

One thousand and one

Within me

There exists a thousand secrets

Each a lock with their own key.

They grow heavy

And I try to scatter them,

But there is not one soul

Whom I’ve met or known

Who is able to bear

The weight of them all.

And so

I’m forced to sprinkle them

Like stardust

One, or two,

Not more than three,

To those at the right place

And the right time

For I cannot sustain their weight

No, the keys have grown too heavy

And I cannot keep so many locks

Without being dragged

Deeper into oblivion.

[complexedsimplicity]

Dreaming Realities

Reality is my cage

Dreams are my escape

I’m trapped in and out

Like a bird with shredded wings.

When I’m awake,

I long to be asleep

Because what I face is

Ugly, cruel, and bleak.

Yet when I’m cocooned in sleep,

I cross my fingers and my toes and my body

Hoping that when I wake

My dreams will have become reality.

Solitude

When you push others away …

Soon,

You start to like being alone.

It’s peaceful.

You learn to grow strong.

And sometimes,

That’s all you need

To stand alone.

Peace, with being alone.

Strength, to stand alone.

[complexedsimplicity]

I Was Here

I was here.

I want to leave proof that I was here.

No matter how big this world is

No matter how many millions, billions of people come and go

No matter how much time has passed

I want someone to know I was here.

[complexedsimplicity]

Paradox

Less is more: simple and basic

Yet, the world is complicated,

But maybe that is exactly what makes it so

Interesting and beautiful.

[complexedsimplicity]

I am a pent-up ball of anger and frustrations.

— And I’m going to explode if I don’t let it out - spill over like hot molten lava, burning everyone and everything in its wake

[complexedsimplicity]

To be able to give everything

You must have nothing. For the best people in the world Care more about others Than themselves.

[complexedsimplicity]

I lost myself chasing after you.

Six-word story. (via complexedsimplicity)

[complexedsimplicity]

I would give you the whole world if I could

But until then, I promise to dream you the best world there is. (via complexedsimplicity)

[complexedsimplicity]

Because I’m a dreamer And you were the fragments of dreams I hoarded.

What if you come true? (via complexedsimplicity)

[complexedsimplicity]

If I refuse to look in the mirror for long enough, Will I forget to look? Will I forget how I look?

Beauty shouldn't only be skin-deep.

[complexedsimplicity]

I may be afraid to open my heart up now, But when I decide to take the risk And choose the person Who deserves my courage, I will love them Completely. Fearlessly. Passionately.

Ignite my fire .:':.
