A world without you

Sometimes i wonder, what makes life worth living?
Is it money? Or the material things we acquire?  

I don't think so, cos those things will die
I think it's the relationship and the memories we make that are gonna live forever  

Just as the glory of the sun
My world is lighted up by the radiation of your smile
And like the shadow of the night
When you gone darkness clouds my eyes.
You're a very important factor to my existence
A world without you is hell  

I wrote this in my sleep
Waking up hoping you will read this

Fuck love


My heart pumps out excitement
My blood rushes towards joy
My face exhibits happiness
Feels like falling  in love  
my head is banging
And my legs are aching.
Through the pain is where i find fun

I dont want to stop
I will just keep going on  
Fuck love  
Cos i find solace in my work

I can't sleep


I can't sleep
I hear the crickets laughing at me
They are calling me stupid    

I cant sleep
I hear the constant nagging of the clock
It says i'm foolish for falling in love

 I cant sleep
So I try to listen to music
I try to watch movies
I try to take my mind of things.  

I cant sleep,
And you are the reason

While time flies


I hear echoes of my name
I hear the screams of an imaginary crowd.
then silence overcame the noise made by men, cars and guns
Everyone is waiting anxiously for me to speak

I feel like a king in my dreams
And i dont have to sleep to feel like this
I can see my greatness before my eyes

As i stare at the windows, while time flies
