Let me tell you a tale
of girl held captive in her head
smiling to the whole world
And sulking at the corner of her bed
She's insecure of her possessions.
she's not safe at her home
she holds out a hand for every needy
friend
And screams in the silence but nobody really cares
Her life is not yet spared
of all the lies and fears
her very aplomb temper is retaliated
and her life turns to a convulsive event
Yet she stands everyday
smiling to the mirror world
promising affirmations
And shining like a sun
You think she's happy because she's smiling
but it's the easiest thing to do
If you looked a little closer
her eyes weren't happy too
she's dying to hear someone say
that she didn't need to try so hard
that she was perfectly enough
that she was prettily okay
And If you dare to love her
Let me tell you something
You can't go past her emotional intellect
so make her feel everything
she's not a witch but benware of her
All her beauty in her voice
so don't treat her like an option
or she'll leave you like a choice

I don't understand you sometimes
How do you do this all the time???
Always acting like divine
And running your thoughts through my spine
This moment you are something
A second later you are different
You say you're always neutral
But I find you so complicated
I think of you day and night
Of how you let me through my nightmares
My heart smiles at your very sight
Yet of all the times at me you glare
Please stop playing with my feelings
Let's set this up and clear the clutter
Let me know if you hate this mess of mine
And I'm sorry for all the things I utter
(But what do I do ?
Such is your gravity that I fall towards it)
I don't mean anything wrong
You know that I've known despair
I can't be that flexible and strong
And I'm falling back without you
As I am climbing every stair
I just need you here with me always
Cause you make me believe when no one stays
I won't trouble you I promise
Just listen to my issues at times
And help me being honest

Deep within my darkness
There's a sense of self estrangement
An urge to get the demons out
And say that I withdraw from you
To free my desolate mind
Don't run away from me like this
Call in on leastways once a week
Give me the same quixotical glance
Like you used to give within me
I'd love to see you by my side
When I grow old and own a tide
I'd love to see your furious twinkles
Which made my heart turn gold
I'm used to certain things in life
I'm used to being with you
You gave me my fervours my originality
So even though I set you free
Have a lust of being with me

The heartache
Near Valentine's day my heart dwell in that misery..
Where its my bestfriend and crush's first anniversary..
Its was the unfateful mistake, made by the cruel cupid..
As I was on standby and watched it, I was really stupid..
I stayed silent because they both were my best friend..
Yet our friendship ultimately came to an awkward end..
Time do heal, love do hurt, in a loop my heart got struck..
Would cycle of healing and hurting ever be able to stop...
Once was crush, now she is not, but an unrequired love..
I lost a piece of me that can neither outgrow nor evolve..
All the empty pages, my life's open book once had..
left her to paint it all with events only seemingly bad..
If I would have courage, I could have seriously fought..
She could have been mine, or so as often I have thought..
I had reached at an impasse, I could not choose anything..
For love and friendship I got lost somewhere in between..

A brief love story.
Once feeling bored, I scrolled, and found her profile
Looked at her bio, and her photo, I fall for her smile
To try my luck, I hopelessly thought lets chat for a while
Left a hello, like a normal fellow, waited for her to reply
In a brief moment, the text she sent, ended my anxiety
Seeing her interest, forgetting rest, I admired her beauty
In euphoria, without any idea, I indulged in my fantasy
To make her mine, in due time, wrote lines very fancy.
With a casual chat and a lovely start, I wished to win her heart.
Oblivious to facts - this could be an act, Kept falling for her fast.
Out of nowhere, to me she swear, crypto currency is the best.
all hopes disappear, left in despair, you can imagine the rest.
Dedicated to all those innocent newbie who fall victim to online scam.

Death: The end.
Death is the only experience that you can't ever share..
Because forever you are lost once life force disappear..
Having seen it once, still some people claim..
If they are still advice then how could they accertain..
The myths and beliefs of an afterlife are widespread..
Mainly to console the living soul missing the dead..
Death is that point where every life path converge..
Nothing can help anyone once death emerge..
We can prolong the life, not postpone the death..
Maintaining a good heath even with spending our wealth.
Can't affect the death but for the life we can..
So as to have no regrets when death really came
The End.

Hideout
I'm still hungry because you gave me water
Don't you know
Water quenches thirst
It can never satiate hunger?
Though I needed shelter, you gave me clothes
Don't you know
Clothes can only cover nakedness,
It can never keep me from cold?
I need love but you became close
Don't you know
Closeness only gives comfort,
It can never give me warmth?

Hideout
I'm hungry but you keep giving me water
Don't you know,
It can only quench my thirst?
It can never satiate my hunger!
I need shelter but you give me clothes
Don't you know,
It can only cover my nakedness?
It can never keep me from cold!
So I need love but you became close
Don't you know,
It can only give me comfort?
It can never give me warmth.

Will it be worth it?
Is it worth it?
I ask myself
Losing me to achieve something
Something temporal
Something material
Do I want it?
My ambition is screaming inside
But, should I leave my spirit behind
My family
My friends
And everything I hold dear
For some far possibility
That it might happen
That I may succeed
That it may be all worth it
Power
Is a dangerous word
It can crumble you from inside
Leaving you still yearning for it
Still not satiated
Will that moment come
When it will all be worth it?
My sacrifice
I will miss myself
The girl I once was
The girl I am leaving behind
What will become of me
I am afraid
Survival
It can be my alibi
For everything I did
How will I live with myself
How will I sleep
Knowing
What I did
What's the point of fighting
When nothing is left in you to fight for.
They say be selfish
They say to not share your academic
To not share knowledge
To not share your weakness
Not even to friends
For you are not smart enough
To discern the true ones
I am afraid
I will loose what we have
Even before it begins

<<<UNTITLED>>>
Submerging my soul in cavernous despondency,
I was biding my time to abscond from its clenches.
Handling in hand a handful of handy agates,
Wanted to stoop my palmar flexion creases;
Since the deluge of dejections has left my pneuma withered,
Chronometeringly I used to watch the Venus at dusk.
Discerning the uncanny transformation of botolinum into lugduname;
For I cognized that everything which betides has a purpose,
Just like the metaphor exercised here to delineate my metamorphosis.
Cutting to the chase lonely beside the seashore holding few agates sedentary,
Thought of tossing them into the Moana.
Although pleased with the bout ripples somehow,
I'm waiting for the bombora to wallop again!
Unknown whether time has mended my spirit,
Or the clock teached me how to reside in afflictions!

It started with harmless banter.
A back and forth of wits and funny remarks
Sandwiched between all of that was intelligence, the kind I like
But I brush it aside, I have been there before and nothing good ever comes of it
We continue our ping pong of words
Words turn into sentences
Sentences began to have meanings
Meaningful conversations expose the values which you hold dear
Similar to the values I hold dear
It is too much of a coincidence
So I lift my eyes up to see who is behind these words
I see you.
Yes you…. In all totality
The content and the container all mashed up into one perfect being
You may call me naïve but I think you are perfect for me
As I am for you
I start to dream.
You have unlocked a part of me I had lost hope of ever opening
I can almost touch the future
This is it, finally
I mean, what could stop this moving train?
When I am with you, I feel you in my insides
Your voice permeating every echo chamber
Your eyes piercing the void left by fate and life
I placed myself on the altar of love
Gave up the ghosts of lovers past
Reborn into your arms
I’m all yours for the taking
So why aren’t you taking me?
I feel the hesitancy
It’s written all over your face
Worry lines drawing a sad picture
I am not to have this dream I crave
You didn’t need to say anything
The silence was deafening
Whatever the reason might be is inconsequential
I have been left hanging yet again
My sacrifice of love not accepted
Not enough
Darkness wins yet again
The light retreats
The door firmly shut
It is cold all over
I’m back to an all so familiar place
I have been here before and I knew nothing good ever comes of it
I thought you’d be different
A dream come true
Alas! You’re not to be
I have come to say my goodbyes
I am at peace with my foe
You smile and tell me everything will be alright
I know this is true
Because while that door is locked
And guarded closely by the darkness that so envelopes me
There’s light and love behind it
Waiting to burst like a pressurized can
To shower a deserving person
Drenching and drowning them in all the love I can offer
So I know I will be alright
It is you I worry about.

Two friends met
The scenery was perfect
Coffee shop half empty
The smell of fresh ground java
The eye catching muffins
Kids taking selfies
A man on his phone
A girl in the corner with a laptop
Rain drizzling outside
Drops tapping on the window
Water splashing
Creating the perfect soundtrack
Two friends met in a coffee shop
And they talked about love
