Let me call you by the sound of my guitar Let me invite you to my burnt home We dance here in a burning room We try here to live afar all it is It’s just my mind Let me call you mine but for a while Let me invite you to my mind We…

An original thought is an accident and an invention is inspired After all, we live in another man’s idea of a mind The creation by you is laborious like making a sculpture from a stone It’s not the movie version of progress where it seems entertaining in a montage It’s a slow burning sensation of routine…

As I sit here, a realisation dawns on me. The world nods in confirmation of my fear that it doesn’t really require me as it runs without me unabashedly. This doesn’t come as a surprise at all but it comes like that strong gust of wind that uproots even the most rooted grass from the…

A snow-capped summit that evades you. You are filled with fear of the distance, of the journey that is unknown. Sounds that you’ve never heard conjure and hijack your senses packing your ambitions behind fear. One day you wake up remembering why you dreamt at all.

Yesterday feels like tomorrow when you’re stuck in a routine Sleeping feels like waking and dreaming feels like living Your life is muddled up in a series of activities meant to soothe you into a slumber of having no sensations finally They say love helps you find your home or the idea of it because you still…
