You

We may have different spelling of the name,
But you know that their meaning is the same.

We may have been born in a different place,
But destiny brought us to a single place.

We may have different goals and ambitions,
But I'll never forget our terrible song renditions.

We may have the same thought process,
But always know that I'll root for your success.

I miss you terribly now that we are apart,
But you know you will always be in my heart.

A year has gone by since I met you,
Don't fear, I'll never forget you.

Never have I met someone like you,
And I hope to continue this journey with you.

Empty Promises

Empty promises,
the ones that you can't keep,
don't make them to me.

Don't make empty promises to me,
because my heart breaks,
when you can't keep them.

You may think I'm strong,
but honestly, I'm not.
So, don't make empty promises to me.

I'm trying to act tough,
but feelings are fragile things
they shatter like glass.

I don't need these promises,
so don't make empty promises to me,
the ones that you can't keep.

Teardrops

Teardrops falling from my eyes.
Gliding slowly onto my cheeks.

Hiding from others,

in a secluded corner, I silently weep.

In a crowded space,

did not let anyone notice the tears forming in my eyes.

For they would want to know what happened,

when all I want to do is cry.

These falling teardrops tell a story,

that only I can recite.

Always donning a brave face in front of others,

so no one will know how unhappy I am.

But, alas, these teardrops will continue to fall,

even when I don't want them to fall.

Rain

Rain. It cleanses everything.
Falling from the sky above the ground,

a natural phenomenon that we all learnt about.

Falling with such calmness and grace,

you never know what havoc it can cause.

Despite all that, for me,

rain is something that brings a smile on my face.

The music of earth.
The mere sound of rain soothes me.

I love how it calms my mind and brings peace to my soul.
There is something about rain that I find so fascinating.

A little too much

I smile a little too much,

get sad a little too often.

I laugh a little too much,

cry a little too often.

I trust a little too much,

get hurt a little too often.

I love a little too much,

regret that a little too often.

And sometimes I blame myself for letting,

people stay in my life longer than their expiration date.

I'm not perfect,

I have my flaws and insecurities.

But you know what, it's okay.

Because I love myself a little too much.

Angel and Devil

Angel and Devil. Devil and Angel.

Two faces. Two perspectives.

Just like there are two sides of a coin, 
there are also two sides of every person.

In every angle, a demon hides.
In every demon, an angel hides.

You never know what a person might be.
Even the devil was once an angel.
