Sentiments 

Feelings and emotions that permeate all aspects of life. 

Not like me. 

Unlike you, I’m forced to

picture you with someone

other than myself. 

Someone that can admire 

you, stronger than I. 

 

Unlike you, I believe you’re 

far too good, for a person like me. 

In Thought

Often, I quite wonder

if I deserve to ponder 

about the lingering thoughts

that others have

of me.

A Fantasy 

To imagine myself

near another, where we

may fancy each other

is a mere illusion, 

where I am the yandere. 

How Far

just how far can I make it, 

how far can I go. 

tears fall, they don’t stop

as a leaf, they simply flow

down. 

 

where I am pulled and berated

by the earth that swallows me whole. 

Dwellings 

alone and in contempt

I sit with the ruminating 

pebbles that were once whole, 

to a greater extent

a thing of nature

to which I continue to lament 

on…

Needed not. 

In every waking moment,

a thought forgoes me

where no soul is in need;
