Those lies I made that day,

I end up choking on my words;

Unable to tell the tell the truth

This hard to swallow pill that’s called “life,”

keeps on getting stuck between my throat

That medicine called “love,”

Keeps on drowning my heart

Ah, look at me more,

my eyes that are filled with hearts

That addicting drug called “pleasure”

Give me more, and more

Until I beg on my knees,

And cry in remorse at my past

That bitter drink called “reality”

Gives me a sharp slap in the face

Making me realize that time is fading like dried flowers

No! Don’t go, I have to hold onto them;

even those days that seem so dark

The poison that you call “desire”

Do I have to be born with that?

It makes my heart ache when I can’t get something I want

I don’t want this, I don’t want that!

What I desire is for you to come back!

Then there’s that nectar called “regret”

Let me drown myself in that -

my consciousness, my heart, my soul, and my tears

It’s so sweet, turning my vision blurry

Thousands of weights pulls me down

My bag of medication that god has stuffed inside me

Ensuring my growth that’ll help me gain experiences

It’s too cruel, but I can’t kill them off

I’m born with them, all the pain and cries

Tonight the stars wink at each other

While the ocean rolls around

Restless and waiting for

Something dramatic to happen

Above the blue-gray waters

Sits a grandmotherly moon, casting her light

On the ocean and the line of trees far away

Suddenly clouds chase each other

The sky darkens to a charcoal gray

And the waves swell agitatedly

Thunder growls, calling for rain to come

Flashes of lightning decorate the sky

While the pouring rain

Half-drowns the island

Soon the rain turns to a drizzle

The sea finally calms down

And somewhere above

The moonlight creates a rainbow
