Let’s Be Honest

Let’s be honest…It’ll start with me trying to be funny and you pretending to like it. We’ll do cute things and go to cute places. We’ll make grand trip plans and watch tasteful cinema. We’ll speak through music and translate through thoughts. Our eyes would yearn for each other’s comfort. I’ll mostly be ranting about […]

Black Ocean

Suspended in motion,I am floating but not moving…My limbs wake up to life byA gentle tug of the oceanMy fingers extend for a familiar touch of the wombBut the precipice of the abyss is all they combLike a statue awakening from a deep slumber,I gain my consciousness and look under A pit of darkness,More a […]

Just An Edge Away

When it feels like the world is closing in on me, Gripping my arms, Choking my neck and Suffocating me inside a numb cocoon… I step out of my room Climb to the terrace And emerge into the vast horizon Of trees and buildings Cooing of birds and the giggles of children Utensils clanking and […]

Crimson

I don’t think, I like people any more.I don’t like their nuances,I don’t like their intricacies,I don’t like their shrewdness,I don’t like their cunningnessI don’t like their nature of socialization,Or maybe is it just a certain few?Why can’t it be simple?Why do people hold grudges?And yearn for vengeance?Is it not for communication that you speak?Is […]

My Departure

Is there anyone in your life, who affects you so much that you want to take your tender hands, cup their face in your palms, cradle them further to the neck, make your fingers touch, and hear the gasps of a departing soul. I have one. Ever since they entered my life, it has always […]

Past 3:45

For months,I waitedWith passion and eager,Looking forward to the days I could be sincere Your problems had become mine,Mine had become yoursYour hardships were my hardships,And mine yoursCaring for you had become my only purposeSynthesising a bond that romantics might discuss A short stick was pulled,A few words were told,I falsely understoodAnd you brought the […]

Where were you?

It is ridiculous howYou’ve affected my life so muchAnd continue to do so You made me go from loving a place toHating it beyond hell, You made me despise a culture that I yearned for the most, You made me dislike a name that is common for all, I’m in a yin-yang state of misery […]
