same things, same mistakes



same things, same mistakes
that I’m just…
so concerned
Same things, same mistakes
I can’t learn from them
I’m too obsessed
Do I like to suffer?
Do I care?
I wish I knew, I wish I dared
realize all that before mischance
You’re the sun
I will never see the worst in you
Because in nightmares I see the moon
There’re some things I can’t tell about
There’s something you have to figure out
a clear sky
with no clouds
when I look at it
i think of you
You’re empty there
The clearest air
Just a concerned eye and a confused mind
Sometimes I can’t look at you
I feel so bad
I see through you
You seem like what I refused to be
You will never change
And I don’t want you to
Can I have my time back?
And a bottomless sack
Of my efforts I put for a negative feedback
The obtrusive thoughts have been talking to me
Was I in the right place?
Was I in the right time?
Maybe I’m not where I need.
