Time is the greatest discriminator For some there’s less For some there’s more For some it’s omnipresent For some it’s invisible There are moments you feel where you’re not the happiest but the most content You realise you don’t know the time then but then the desire to know it arises and your eyes waver [...]

Happiness is learning the difference between which thoughts to keep and which thoughts to let go It is to live less in imagination and to be more rooted in reality It is to be with someone else’s feelings To be helpful to them even when you’re not able to help yourself

Today the world woke up looking a little forgetful The sun didn’t feel as vengeful The newspapers had empty pages The air didn’t suffocate living Was it because we all remembered our dreams today?

I erode my being to get out of my mind The physical sensation of emptiness coupled with the confirmation of being alive the paradox of which is enough to take up all the space in my mind as what bothered me is without me now All I care about is this small little world where [...]

Decorate your room for my memories to echo less Your lingering perfume wanes in intensity as I get undressed Tormenting clouds call me out to watch them perform a show for us tonight A show we're both an audience of separated by space and time The show gets over and I remember that my umbrella [...]

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 [...]

I still remember your gestures in my dream The way your self-consciousness makes you more elegant than hideous, like you think The way your eyes held the calm of the mountains and somehow I knew the reason was me That was when fear gripped me for pain knows me way too well as it circles [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
