luck

never tempt fate, 

it'll get you nowhere. 

i've spent hours, 

trying to get rid of my destiny. 

i'm tired of pretending 

that it's not right there,

that my whole life isn't already decided. 

just because i'm lucky up till now

doesn't mean i will be in a couple years. 

i know my fate is already sealed,

deep within a book

where it writes my story,

line by line,

page by page, 

till there isn't enough ink and blood.

but i can't help but think,

that i will keep getting lucky, 

because so far this luck 

has just come to me. 

it's my melody.

  • See you, brother

    I don't think you're a waste of space,

    I'll give you my room and my pillow

    As long as you make the bed afterwards,

    And close the windows to keep the rain out. 

     

    I don't think your not enough,

  • rerun

    The whole world whispers when you meet my gaze,

    My eyes flutter closed as your lips meet mine,

    And though it's forbidden, my heart still betrays. 

     

    I know I should leave, but I always stay,

  • Crossroads

    what do I do when the leaves are dead?

    what do I do with this road ahead?

    i'll walk the stretch, and clear the way,

    but my feet won't move today. 

     

    what do I do when these trees are surreal?
