Embers falling from a dark sky I can’t find your remains in my head Fading away through the sins i gulp A distant dream i never share I can meet you someday when you come back to me like a seizure You’re the waking after fainting Blobs of people I can’t recognise They’re standing over…

Silences pass me by Words corrupt the emotion felt I see like a caterpillar the first jump of a butterfly I’ve cried, lied, caught myself in a righteous flight only to get stuck looking at the aurora interrupted by a meteoric sky To see beauty all around or the destruction that’s impending? The best worst…

The individuality is slowly stripped off while learning to forget dreams as I wake up to a tsunami of things to juggle I’m in the delusion of a mass huddle The top 10 ways to find inner peace and my focus struggles to reach the 10th point which is to declutter and focus on 1…

[279] Past, Present & Future
![[279] Past, Present & Future](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/b3f26-279.jpg?w=1024)
Living off of premonitions Surviving off of doomed predictions Can you change your fate as all your peers fail to prove you wrong Can you become something that you’ve never seen?

The age of excess and the diminishing impact of the pains of our glory and the learnings of a failure Every lesson swept under the rug that is hidden under my cerebrum which is rusting in the shame for all that I couldn’t learn and all that I couldn’t tell you in time Whenever I…

The passing of my sleep signal a doom of my dreams where I watch all that I think I needed linking it with the edge of reality Of lost paths, I could have taken to happiness Of the ways, that I could not fear less It arrives to me like a bohemian sensation Light in…

[267] Secrets
![[267] Secrets](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/39f7d-267.jpg?w=700)
Look for me for I am lost I usually find myself in a faraway thought I can tell you all my secrets and scatter all my lies but it’s in the language of my twisted tongue Do you have the will to try? I’m saving all the images that I witness now that I’m so…

A loss of words and a loss of reality I lose all fire and I lost on vitality The gift lies unwrapped somewhere in the absurdity To find all my feelings Blocked memories surface to weep I sing all my worries and you sing back with silence I sing all my disappointments but you start…
Smoke words every day.
