ANNIHILATION

are you in the dark
searching for a guiding light,
searching for something?

what are you wishing
in a night without the stars,
in a night mirrored by scars?

what is inside you?
do you wish to let it go?
is even true?

what are the questions
that lives deep within your mind?
what lives in your heart?

once this light bring you
somewhere you never asked for,
where will your life go?

where do you go? (when you can’t fall asleep)

lyrics:

the clock is ticking

eyes wide open

tell me what you’re thinking

where have you been?

are you still dreaming?

and your heart’s taken

tell me what’s the feeling

what have you seen?

in the night, some cry

trying to be alright

in the light, they lie

hiding truth from sight

the clock is ticking

soon it’ll be morning

staring at the ceiling

are you still mourning?

in the night, some die

no more life to fight

in the light, they fly

to a world out of sight

the clock is ticking

on me, on you, on us

why wait for morning

to me, it’s you, I trust

but hush, they say

the night is a way

when silence is at a bay

where are the noises and shouts
of your thoughts

do you push them all away?

are you dry and out?
looking for the demons,
the ghosts in you

remember

the clock is ticking

Letters

Boy: A day that I wish can go on forever.

Girl: But, time won’t let such thing.

Boy: Crazy, right?

Girl: Dream on, for the night is short.

Boy: Everything is really a dream today.

Girl: Feel the wind for a moment.

Boy: Girl, it’s with us.

Girl: Have you seen the stars like this?

Boy: Imagine if we can see them like this every night.

Girl: Just answer my question first. You’re drifting boy.

Boy: Kind of, not fully drifting away. Well, I have never seen such constellations to show up this bright.

Girl: Lovely isn’t it? Just the stars and any image we want it to be. 

Boy: Man, I wish I could really see this every single night.

Girl: No, I disagree. If something remains constant, then wouldn’t it be less special as time goes by?

Boy: Okay, I get your point. Maybe that’s why I wanted to see this every night. So that whenever I look up to the nights of my tomorrow, and see the stars less, I’ll look back at this day and remember what it felt like.

Girl: Please, promise me that you will make it to those tomorrows.

Boy: Queens and Kings. Like them, I’ll make sure that I’ll have tomorrows for those that I love and care for.

Girl: Right. I feel like we’re queens and kings right now. On top of the world yet we still gazed upon the beauty of this vast galaxy.

Boy: Stand up. Let’s watch it on that side, by the shore.

Girl: Take my hand. Help me stand from this heavy feeling. You know, I was comfortable back there. I really could’ve slept in that spot.

Boy: Under this beauty that I might never see again, I feel like I need to make this count. Make the most out of the time we have left tonight under these stars that conspired for us two.

Girl: Very poetic. But what are you trying to say?

Boy: Well, I think maybe this is the night that I should say it. Hold on, let me. I know that you look at me as a friend, and you know that I look at you otherwise. I’ve been chasing the same star ever since I met you, and now the stars are above us, and you’re here right next to me.

Girl: Xenon-less night. It’s just us in here, guided by the starlight and a dream that made its way to reality. But you know I just can’t.

Boy: You don’t have to. I’m just glad that I have you right here with me. I just know somehow, deep inside me. That tonight may be the last time that I will get this opportunity to be this close to the star that guided me back to where I should be.

Girl: Zoning out of the dream, I’m really sorry that I can’t return the love that you have given me.

Boy: A love that I have always dreamed of. But why ask for more? Maybe all the universe ever wanted was for this boy to become a man in front of the girl that is no other woman. You don’t have to worry, wherever you are, or wherever you might be in the future, I will always love you in my own way.
