I wrote small words before I met her Now I find myself writing them in the grandest of strokes She salvages all my crumpled paper mistakes and glues them back together to reveal an exhibition of my improvement She made me understand that silences don’t necessarily need distraction but sometimes it just needs listening She…

[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? I never realised that the aftermath is not my future I never realised the empathy for some is exclusion I’ve never seen the potential…

[273] Breathing Yesterday’s Air
![[273] Breathing Yesterday’s Air](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/c5713-img_7458.jpg?w=1024)
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…

[270] Dreaming Reality Checks
![[270] Dreaming Reality Checks](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/8305c-270.jpeg?w=1024)
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…

[265] Still Life

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…

[260] I think I know it all
![[260] I think I know it all](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/39324-260.jpg?w=1024)
A clean slate of self-discovery A push is needed to find all my checkpoints again Knowledge has become amnesic in the pursuit I can only hold so much in the little head that’s left Smoke alarm whirring in my airy bones Intoxications only resolve to bring back lost energy All that comes back is the…

Empty threats to myself I’m thinking more and wondering less She is in love with the part of me I hate Let me be anywhere but the present Let me remove myself and erode the brittle past Solace in all the self-pity you seem to read and enjoy Dangling on a thread shaped like a…

[257] Discriminating Cycles
![[257] Discriminating Cycles](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/bdc7a-img_5017.jpg?w=633)
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…

[255] Distractions of Today
![[255] Distractions of Today](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/9a224-253.jpg?w=780)
Plague my mind with mysteries that offer no delight Call me out on all the ignorant vices I keep to keep my sense of self Attention deficit Distracted feelings Overwhelming Living I think of all the simple things that we’re losing out I fall before I jump I speak before I think out loud to…
Smoke words every day.
