But My Eyes Are Black Holes You Always Seem To Avoid

If only I were the constellations
Or the paintings at the museum
Or the rainbow after the storm

Perhaps your intriguing eyes
Would gaze longer
And your heart
Would fall deeper

So you could endure
The heart-clenching feeling
Whenever I catch
The sight of you.

To The One Behind Those Sad Songs I Repeat Relentlessly

Here's to the night I fritter away
Typing and erasing 
The things I wanted to convey
To the one
Who is clueless about my feelings;

Here's to the one 
Who lives in the world 
I scribbled with ink;

Here's to the one
Whose laugh always makes me
Forget that the world around me exist;

My mind erupted
When I realized the distance between us existed
Because it wanted to remind me
That you and I
Would never turn into something
More than just friends

I just wish
You could walk away from my mind
So I can sleep in peace
Just for one night.
