Goodnight
Goodnight chickens
Goodnight numbers
I'll count you all again
In the morning
And if it was any wonder of yours
It was mine too
Still
I chose to slumber
To find my rest
No pillow
No breast
Only solitude to console me
And so
And so again I would go
A far away place
Not in space
Or time
Though it helps
To be alone
Like the ones who
So desperately crave
To be alone
But first
To find someone
To be alone with
This search that drives
So many around the bend
It must be like the Truth
To know anything at all
You must begin by forgetting
Everything
So everything can find you
In the End

Sailing the craft
This car drafts fast and drifts faster
It's okay when it's not even anything
More or less
It's just a tricky test
So the car turns into a ship
Sailing the pavement
Grooving through the cracks
Never stepped on
It's just the stress of the winds
Tearing the sails
But the storm coming before beckons
It reckons and shoots lightning
Into the sea
This hail is sharp & dulls sailing pulls
It's rough today says a capital captain
The caption needed is heeded full
The crew knows what to do and pull
The rope tight and lift the canvas
The wind blows harder still
What a treasure they seek to fill
Passing it every wave that crest best
The stow aways all play poker below
It's all part of this ships glow and flow
The water rises
The drought despises
It's own reproduction and reprisals
The rain pours thick
The sails are proofed not to let it stick
To the end of the world they sail sick
The cap and his tin hat capable
Able and stable the wood in the iron
The storm is coming
The stork is coming
The doom and fork are forming
Boring into the knots of the mirror
The package untold left at the pier
Looking back the crew stews
This captured captain has the blues
Reaching for the map
It's been left at the coldest cap
The fat cats at home lap the gaps
Don't frett screams the sail or
The sea men all look away
To the sky turning dark
Dire fire in the sky above looks stark
A smirk and smile
This is the hour
Crew starts to cower with their foes
Alas the horizon further glows
The strongest gust approaches
A storm only gives this ship
More power to love the sea
By carving through it not to flee
The sails demand wind when
To move ahead and past sin
Just as hot air balloons devour wind

Game Over
Nothing lasts forever
If memory serves correct
Memories of what happened
I finally forget
The details won’t really matter
There’s nothing to correct
Holding rules of a cruel
Game over me
Game over you
Well it’s done
And there’s nothing left to be won
No moves to be made all dragons are slain
And a new day calls for omissions

Hello there all. Good morning.
I'm a student and I write sometimes. This is something that I just wrote and share here. Please give your reviews on it.
Title: Fate
I chose to be burn in hell
I chose to swim the ocean
I chose the pain.
All that I chose.
I can't blame thou for my suffering,
You are the reason tho.
I can't play with thou,
You played tho.
I chose you over entire world.
I chose death. Accepted it. As it is.
Now all I hope is to wait till the last day.
A day when I'll reach the bottom of the ocean.
A day when you will no longer be able to see me.
A day when I'm suffering will end. A day I'll meet my master in hell.
But the only regret I will have there is,
You will not be there. Because I accept that fate,
So you can live and enjoy.

the unbridled love of child
snuffed without a care
robbed from the cradle of my lost heart
on the cusps of my awakening
to a world that had rules
for the weak and the broken
to keep them in line
and out of sight
lest to remind the strong of their slips
the mistakes they gloss over with smiles
and all the sweet things i am denied
in a world indifferent to all that happens
i am left to fend for myself
defend again things that only i know off
things that even my sire knows not off
forced to fight monstrosities veiled in the light of day
dancing to my screams as i lose
battle after battle to them
and each time stripped of a little more of my being
till i am nothing
till i become a shell
a veil for them to wear in the daylight
to taunt and deceive all who think them defeated
lost on the ancient battlefields sown with their blood
and covered with the blossom of false victories
the very place to be watered again
with the blood of the strong
in the shadows of even stronger ones
till the cycle begins anew in perpetuity
for always and forever

Take my hands, and read the pride.
Down crooked lines, where love has lied.
Where fall is far, where flaw is fair.
Where love is flawed, you'll find me there.

Imperfections
In the deep woods
Mortal wounds buried,
The lies that hold us
Together in...
Our imperfections
Have become
Our enemy
For life.

Withering soul
Little by little she dies everyday
Demons everywhere she's losing her sight
Pain has reached her bones
Breathing freely is a luxury now
she resists but she knows she is a withering soul
she is screaming but can anyone hear her?
The world's gone deaf
All eyes are shut, no one sees what's right in front of them
She is not the only one
She won't be the last one
Time is a flat circle, Nietzsche said
Once upon a time humans came into this world, cursed to repeat their doings time and time and time again
Fading souls don't await the eternal rest
There is no rest, there is no end to their agony
Trapped they are, born prisoners
Freedom was never a dream only an illusion

She = He, an equation still not accepted,
She is dependent, powerless, and incapable still suspected.
Her ideas are openly mocked but silently noted,
Her hard work and sacrifices remain unquoted.
She is not allowed to raise her voice,
Sitting still and silent, she is left with no choice.
She must be perfect from head to toe,
She rejected you. How dare she?! Label her a hoe!
‘Equal’ in “Equality” and ‘Free’ in “Freedom”,
It’s no rocket science to understand these two words unless you are dumb!!
Let her take a stand,
And if she is struggling lend her a helping hand!
She also has a life and will not always be available,
So instead of making her feel guilty, make her comfortable.
Homemaking together with job undertaking, she can be a multitasker,
Trust her, care for her ask her!
Ability and Success does not come with a particular gender,
If you want to shine you will have to be a worthy contender.
You cannot undermine her just because you are strong,
Men>Women or Women<Men, both the equations are wrong.

CLICKS
Times pass and people separate,
But memories remain forever....
It feels a lie when people say technical evolution took us apart,
For these heartfelt clicks helps to relive the warmth of heart,
Which otherwise seems lost in intricate web of thoughts,
Everyone becomes rigid with experiences,
It is these clicks which help to feel the fluidity of life again....

the bearing braced walls
shuddered, shattered, shredded
not completely though
there are yet seeds to be sowed
in the heavenly abode
drop by drop, soon
in rivers, chaotic blood flowed
from the structure's doors
that now shut open
rivers in abandoned arbitrary flow
drop by drop, it stopped too
Bloooooooddddd
not the sparkling red glitters
but just the no r m a l endometrium
maybe crimson paint spilled on the canvas
but more b e a u t i f u l n beyond
this structure, not only has walls
but there's this boss lady
who makes all the calls
from the entry to exists
carrying on the proceedings
she comes once a month
to collect what is solely hers
upon not getting what she deserves
she ends up creating a bloody mess & chaos
she is no harm, she means no harm
she is just here to calm you through the storms
she wants you to believe her, promising
that flowers will too bloom,
pls hold on till spring
I have tried to metaphor "menstruation" here, stating the uterus as a kind of structure where there is lady (ovum) who takes all the decisions. But I am really not sure if I succeeded. Also I wanted to add a paragraph about how this structure will be a (king)dom or a fort(ress). I also wanted to convey more how it is beautiful n symbolic to life & not focus on society's prohibitions & perspectives
Please review this for me, and lemme know if it makes sense.
Thank You :)

Delightfully dark is my day
Filled with a sinister sound
At night conveys my dismay
Something exquisite and profound
Taste of eeriness and despair
Somehow stimulates my mind
Absence of these in the air
Renders me mute somewhat blind
Letting the sunflower bloom
Hope keeps me really close
Fragrance exists in gloom
Like an evening primrose
Sunshine while guiding my way
Nurtures the chaos around
At night conveys my dismay
Something exquisite and profound
