I'll tell you a story, before it tells itself 🎶

Is there even a story to tell, I wonder.

Yeah, I guess.

For sure. Since it has been months since I last wrote.

My life has been... What would most people call it? A roller coaster? Though that is not far from the truth, I prefer to think of it as a song that's been forgotten.

It's like I know the tune but the passing of time has obliterated most of the words from my mind. I fumble for the verses because only the chorus speaks for me.

Can you imagine performing a song like that?

Quite messy, right?

Worry not though. Despite this entry sounding melancholic, I'm doing quite alright. I want you to know and think that I'm always better than the last time we've interacted. That doesn't mean I've got 0 problems but it just means I have learned to thrive and I'm stronger with everything that comes my way. I break down and fall but I always heal.

Why this post, you may ask. Or not. I'm still telling you anyway.

I thought of my friends today. The real ones; those who stayed. I took out my pen and notebook and I even logged on here in hopes that I could write a poem for them but it has been years and I'm rusty AF.

These friends i am referring to -- whether they're online friends or not (you know who y'all are), they provide the amazing instrumental material when I'm not in the mood to sing. They teach me everytime that it's okay to be still and to just enjoy the rhythm.

Dear friend, for that, I truly appreciate you.

Updates!

Hi, hi. I haven't been on Tumblr for so long, i missed it! 😭 Worry not though. I've been doing great! Just really busy with my job. Teaching college and senior high for almost 2 years now, if you didn't know. Who'd have thought I'd be a teacher, right?! It can be infuriating a lot of times, but it's the best job I've ever had so far haha! Aside from that, what else.... Hmm. The summer of 2017 has been the best summer I've ever had so far. Why? Because PZ finally flew to see me 😭😍 Going strong, teehee ~ Anyway, I'll TRY to write more next time. I'm starving 😛 Later ~

Days like this just make me want to run away They want to hail me Queen but i say “nay” Dearest, let not appearances fool you For i know what’s genuine and true You’re only seeing the exterior Like a polished apple but poisoned in the core The girl you exchange smiles with seems fine and dandy But the eyes are liars, for the heart knows she’s not happy Rage and bitterness boils inside Love, tell me, will it ever die? The room is dark and only a single light peeks through May it seep through the soul’s root May it be a sign, the sun’s ray As i kneel down and pray

You know the cliché “don’t bottle up your feelings” advice? Well, the bottle has exploded.

Him : I met this amazing girl…….

scary six word story?

[wordsinsteadofwings]

My pillows are sick and tired of hearing your name. Time to close my eyes.

[wordsinsteadofwings]

a human, i am not.

or at least, that’s what i was once. it seems that i have forgotten how to feel. my laughs are empty and fleeting. my cries, nonexistent. it only hurts my head when i try to shed a tear. anger is now only a cure for boredom. a past time. a human, i was once. it was a slow transition. had i not walked past that mirror, i never would’ve seen the death in those eyes. young and graceful, i stared back at her as she lifted her arm, cradling her cheek with a hand. what a lovely, lovely corpse. void of emotion and soul, i am she .. // my reflection // .. and she is i so i reached for her in the glass and told her “you can still come back tonight.”

stay wild. 🌱

[wordsinsteadofwings]

And if i shall fade, I'd still feel bliss -- grateful, beyond words, For your love that's undying and unconditional and pure.

the veins in your wrist excite me and oh, how i wish to root my fingers in the spaces of your hands like a tree clinging to the Earth in order to live

[wordsinsteadofwings]

ocean waves, kissing your feet wind, caressing your skin trees, dancing around for you sun, lighting your way stars, keeping you company and you still say you are not adored if i must die to let you live, then so be it.

and even with goodbye on his lips, my god, he was still beautiful. because just as he turned around to be on his way, the sun set behind the trees, imprinting shadows of leaves on his back. it was then that i believed the stories to be true. that there are some people you never get over with even when they’re through with you.

the season of falling leaves and hearts

[wordsinsteadofwings]

and if i, were, to lend you my body and soul – to sit atop your halo would you then see how beautiful you are?
