thoughts
are like the tangled roots of an old tree or maybe like the birds that wander around the sky. You are trapped by the recurring curiosity of your roots or an idea that flies inside your mind like a bird.
all alone in an empty room,
I can sense being accompanied by randomness and alluring possibilities. It might appear complex at times like the last maths equation you couldn't equal to zero. Time and again you seem to blend with your thoughts as easily as drops of paint in water.
feelings
are like those tiny bubbles I blew across your face and you popped them one by one making the air an empty space. And all I could ever do was reminisce about you laughing a few seconds ago.
all alone in an empty room,
I can feel my blood hammering in the walls of my ventricles. I know you haven't done anything; you're not even here, but maybe that's what feeling something is. I feel heavy but my weight is still the same and I just wonder if it's the gravity that's pulling me towards you.
memories
are all curled up like your curly hair if you let them grow. I roll them up like the negative reels we both have in the drawers that secure our pasts.
all alone in an empty room,
I close my eyes to view my natural projector replaying the reel. And when it ends at today, it feels like I just watched a movie that was never mine. Time and again I can hear your laugh making me wonder what was the silliest I could ever possibly say.
you might be the pain I endured years ago or the success that transformed me or the failure that shattered my dreams or the person that couldn't remember my face. You live with endless reincarnations but I only have a form of myself. And I feel like it is in a state of crisis for all the things that have been staying.
like a soul departing from a corpse, you need to let me go. I'm letting you leave in peace and disappear among the unseen.
all alone in an empty room,
sometimes I really want to be alone.
