The easier something seems the more unintelligible it is
If there were a correct answer I wouldn’t be in such trouble
My mouth, about to say those crucial words
Slowly closed into a sigh

“Rock, paper, scissors” “It’s a draw”
Neither’s ego wants to back down to the other’s
The kindness hidden inside the fist that crushed the peace sign
Just disappeared in the blink of an eye
Back and forth between the strength of staring forward
And a face covered in tears
Deep breath… My chest shivered
The air I sucked in is cold

What should I do?
Where’s the right way to go?
Where was I aiming for anyway?

Everytime
I run fast
I get cornered

Even if I trip
Covered in mud
And someone laughs at me again
The scars and the tears of the past
Let’s call them “strength”

I want to love sorrow and pain too
Even if smiling seems a bit of a stretch, smiles haven’t disappeared, right?
Let’s live, no matter how many times I get trampled on
Beyond the tears Everything’s going to be alright

Chamomile velvet

Blue night breeze, stopping at the red
So stylish all wrapped in yellow lights
The honour of white exists thanks to black
We can paint ourselves so many colours
See, green trees shade
Grey whines disappear into it
What looks good on you?
The colour of happiness depends on you

If I don’t hurry up I’ll be late again
Getting motion sickness from the speed the world spins at
Mobile phones getting more and more useful
Aren’t you forgetting something?
Add an A to your piled up ego
And show me your smile
Hurting someone
Being hurt
What I was trying to do anyway?

Getting closer
Too close
And I can’t see it anymore

Someone’s hand
Even if believing it all
Makes me anxious

If I snug close to sorrow
It will become kindness

Even those past days coloured in tears were not a mistake
I can only see tomorrow’s flowers thanks to the flowers that wilted today
I’ll go and reach my hand out as many times as it’s needed
Beyond the smile Everything’s going to be alright

Obtaining something
Losing it
What was it I wanted again?

Rain and hail
Carried away
But still fighting
Bluffing
Standing firm
Even losing sometimes

When you embrace your scars
You shine even as you cry
Headwind can make you fly higher than tailwind
Shall we take a plunge?

I want to love sorrow and pain too
Even if smiling seems a bit of a stretch, smiles haven’t disappeared, right?
Let’s live, no matter how many times I get trampled on
Beyond the tears Everything’s going to be alright

Even those past days coloured in tears were not a mistake
I can only see tomorrow’s flowers thanks to the flowers that wilted today
I’ll go and reach my hand out as many times as it’s needed
Beyond the smile Everything’s going to be alright
