[pickmeperfect]

my heart,

with the weight of you upon it

slowly shattering,

a frozen lake under careless foot

but I do not stop your stride

though you may fall through,

t'is I who will break

[pickmeperfect]

te echo de menos

just buy me a one way ticket

and pick me up when i arrive

hold me while the sobbing passes

let these happy tears bleed into your coat

and wash away sorrow cried on my goodbye 

[pickmeperfect]

I tell myself no,

like my words could halt these feelings,

as if a wish could hold onto the twilight.

Slow but unstoppable, the sun does rise.

so my doomed heart braces, 

as the last of the velvet night burns from the sky.

[pickmeperfect]

you pushed

or I fell

it only mattered I not smile

and reveal my bloodied mouth

[pickmeperfect]

a synapse

a blink

within lies infinity

though a dark, empty expanse

Nobody grows up unscathed.  If your parents don't divorce and break your heart, the anguish brought by a first love clues you in on how pain comes along with living.  And if you're lucky enough to make it through your formative years with no real trauma, you end up watching Titanic one day and that's it. You finally feel the suffering around you, and from then on the world is just not the perfect place you knew.

I would rather hug a tree than a person, and I'd rather save the rainforest than humanity.

Barely perceptible but relentlessly cumulative, time catches us all.
