Untitled

Come to think of it
Im not entirely sure
Where i lost myself

Maybe it was in those 8 long
Hours of classtime
Lost in notes and due dates
Equations and definitions

In beds of strangers or
Old friends who i no longer
Know the whereabouts of

Was it in love lost or forgotten?
Perhaps words of friends exchanges
Greetings and goodbyes

Did i lose myself somewhere
Along these roads driven on
Late nights
To places with people whose
Faces i wont ever recall?

Did i leave myself behind in
Books or in shows or at the cinema?
In lonely yet cozy coffee shops?
Or crowded concert halls?

Or maybe it was ticking of clocks
And the counting of time
Waiting for the better times
That never came

Come to think of it
Im not entirely sure i had ever lost myself
Im not entirely sure i had ever had myself
Maybe its all those places
That made me
Yes, simple, coffee loving,
Book worm and music horder, me

just my own perfect hour

When the rays of the sun glide upon the water
Making it shine and stand so still
The lake becomes my great friend,
My heart's joy,
Each and every sunset.
The blazing sun, golden orange
Kneels before the water
And sinks slowly into the depths
The rocking boats witness this magic
Of my perfect hour.
The surface of the water
Shimmers as the sun's rays
Hands it soft loving pats
The boats rock gently 
Slightest ripples of water
Like a child rocking in a cradle
I sway from side to side in my boat
And like a child gazing into its mother's eyes
I am mesmerized by the setting sun.
The mellow amber and radiant orange hues
Dive into my heart, making pools of joy
My perfect hour is, snuggling in my boat
Watching the sun set on the lake.

interested in you

Be with someone who is interested in you. 
Now i don't mean someone who thinks you're cute and funny.
I mean someone who wants to know every insignificant detail about you.
Someone who wants to read every word you write.
That person who wants to listen to every note of your favourite song just to feel
how you feel
and watch your favourite scene of your favourite movie so you'll have something to 
laugh about when you're old
Someone who wants to learn about every scar, small or big, on your skin or in your heart,
just so they know where each of them came from
Someone who wants to know the quotes that resonate deep inside your bones.
There is a significant difference between attraction or lust and genuine interest.  

In all honesty, once you have found that person, regardless of your relationship, could be just friends or a lot more than that, never ever for the sake of humanity let them go. Because its those people who will stay till the end.  They are permanent when the rest of the world is temporary.
