Being lost in a dream

You fool yourself over and over again. Constantly telling yourself that you're over that phase of your life. Constantly trying to forget about the memories, the laughter, the love, the pain. You pretend every waking morning that you're happy. And you pretend every lonely night that you're not lonely. But the truth is, deep down inside you, you know all your efforts are worthless. Because the truth is, moving on is a tricky thing. The moment you see something that reminds you of that certain phase of your life, everything comes back. The love, the laughter, the moments, the memories, and the pain. At the end of the day, you realize.. that those memories, whether you like it or not, are the ones that keeps you alive. They're the ones that keeps you hopeful. And whether you admit it or not, they are the ones that makes you go on in this silly beautiful phase called life.

Butterflies

Sometimes, there are people who's going to barge into your life. Without any sign, without any permission, without any warning. They will create memories, whether it's good or bad. They will make you experience. They will make you learn. They will make you hope. They will make you happy. And they will make you sad. And sometimes, even if you have nothing to hope for, when there's nothing to be happy with, when all you can be is sad, you smile. Because despite everything, through high heavens and hell water, you've experienced how it is to be a butterfly who just came out of her cocoon.. Even if you have accidentally let go of it. Because sometimes, the only way to learn is to get hurt. And you know what, that's all you need to move forward. Happy memories and an optimistic view, that someday.. in the future, the butterfly will come back in your life again.
