    [561] Long Day’s Journey Into Night

    I can’t wait to feel the sorrow.⁣It came late, but I still follow.⁣The light returns to whatever heaven⁣it came from,⁣And I turn my back⁣to not feel the shine of love,⁣to feel all the lack.⁣How can it be true⁣when lies are all I gather?⁣How can it be true⁣when I don’t seem to bother?⁣I observe my gradual…

  • [555] When Nature Speaks

    [555] When Nature Speaks

    Today, I saw a tree have an accident⁣Its windshield broken by a falling object⁣Yet it remains living amidst the progress⁣⁣Today, I saw a tree have an accident⁣It didn’t move, it didn’t scream, it didn’t honk⁣Only stood, only rooted, only breathing.⁣⁣Today, I spoke to a tree⁣It invited me to rest⁣Whispering to hang in there⁣It asked me…

    [546] How To Remember and Forget

    In one sweeping gaze⁣⁣⁣You can tear it all apart⁣⁣⁣Slippages of my past ⁣⁣⁣cut through my stoic civil war⁣It beats another life to unearth my anxieties⁣⁣⁣Yet it remains invisible, omnipresent⁣⁣⁣My blindspots become the battlefield of⁣the paradoxical dance of my intrusive fears⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣It doesn’t make sense ⁣⁣⁣to live a lie of purity ⁣⁣⁣I suffer rhythmically and ⁣⁣⁣make a…

    [543] The Battle Inside or The War Outside

    Hypnotise me⁣Make the source of ⁣my anxiety revealed in your liveliness⁣Teleport me to a point where ⁣I don’t have any choice ⁣but the right one⁣Hum me sweet melodies⁣Lull me and merge me into an endless consciousness⁣Featherless, formless, I fall…⁣⁣Eyes open I am shaken into my surroundings⁣Dreams had taken me to a place ⁣where every decision…

    [541] Rebirth of The Spectacular Inner Child

    The infinite world of the private⁣⁣entertains my waking moments⁣⁣It all begins with the images of a dream⁣⁣but I let it fade with the burden of reality⁣⁣I travel to a destination where I have never arrived⁣⁣The desire always wanting something new⁣⁣⁣⁣Once I arrived in a worldwhere I’ve only been in imagery⁣⁣I look around to be amidst…

    [539] In Search of New Beginnings

    A blackbird soars, circling my tragedy⁣⁣Amorphous thoughts form in my mind⁣⁣⁣⁣I dare not brave its end ⁣⁣Nor even stand amidst its trance ⁣⁣to not be lost again⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣To be lost is to no longer be grounded⁣⁣⁣⁣It is not flying in the infinite sky⁣⁣⁣⁣It is a hopeless free fall ⁣⁣for a hopeful divine intervention⁣⁣⁣⁣It is a leap…

    [537] Darkness Behind Closed Eyes

    Mind fails to stay still⁣⁣⁣Heart knows its way around⁣⁣⁣But in this jungle of the material world⁣⁣⁣I feel lost, a rose wilting on my pillow of tears⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣In dreams, I meet my saviour⁣⁣⁣But how can I be saved from what I can’t name?⁣⁣⁣I try to stay present, but distractions abound⁣⁣⁣They say to wander is to wonder, but…

    [524] The Call of the Wild

    The truth, the night, the vastness⁣⁣The endless sky and the endless⁣⁣flights of fancy and feelings⁣⁣The intuitive heart and its⁣⁣tiptoeing to stay alive⁣⁣The silence and its end⁣⁣The sounds that illuminate light⁣⁣⁣⁣Nature dies in our minds⁣⁣as we disconnect from the world⁣⁣The trees and the rivers fade away⁣⁣and we lose touch with the earth⁣⁣Risen to the surface⁣⁣the depth…

    [523] Count Me Out

    When the lights go out⁣⁣I’m left with a lack in me⁣⁣like damage dwells in my knee⁣⁣Is it pain or upward spinal ecstasy?⁣⁣⁣⁣Playing catch up to my thoughts⁣⁣An utter abandon of pride⁣⁣Shudder and stutter in speech⁣⁣All the ravens waiting for me⁣⁣⁣⁣In the painting of my life⁣⁣lies a dark centre amidst delight⁣⁣Melancholic bitter sweet flight⁣⁣A confident self…

    [521] Our Tale Out Of Time

    Malignant thoughts ⁣overstay their welcome⁣The lure of passion⁣and the forgetfulness⁣of the aftertaste it leaves⁣The ruins of my resolve⁣weaker by the second ⁣⁣To resist all temptations ⁣where the mind is forgotten⁣To bring awareness to my breath⁣where the self is forgotten⁣I centre my attention ⁣to the conscious till⁣there is no awareness ⁣of my external surroundings ⁣⁣Only an…

    [520] Enigmatic Presence

    ⁣Running out of words⁣in a velveteen quicksand⁣Engulfed in the eternal⁣I listen to my oceanic orchestra⁣My inner world jostles ⁣and i turn the other way⁣until i’m facing away⁣from my eventual fate⁣⁣Everything and nothing⁣all at once, twice and all times⁣I move feelings⁣I force sadness⁣I grab the fleeting⁣I am an enigma ⁣stuck in my own ways⁣locked out of…

    I hide from your secrets⁣⁣I live in another plane⁣⁣where we words are extinct⁣⁣so we only listen to the music⁣⁣that we emit from our bodies⁣⁣The music of our impossibility⁣⁣⁣⁣In another world you lay next to me⁣⁣In another world we kill each other⁣⁣until we’re born again, in another world⁣⁣A million sunsets meeting ⁣⁣at the edge of the…

    Cradle me in my suffering⁣⁣Breathlessness in my crying⁣⁣Waves crash on my walls⁣⁣Took a second to break it all⁣⁣Before you turn into a stranger⁣⁣say it one more time you do⁣⁣⁣⁣Misty self image ⁣⁣I’m starting to forget⁣⁣Slivers of courage remains⁣⁣I carry it in an open casket⁣⁣The journey of remembrance ⁣⁣is now one of survival holding on⁣⁣⁣⁣The man…

    I am anonymous to you⁣⁣But we know in our white hearts⁣⁣the unique way we look at things ⁣⁣We meet on a common ground⁣⁣in the afterglow of our celestial dreams⁣⁣The world of reading between the lines⁣⁣where we reside in between the words⁣⁣Star crossed lovers with no end in sight⁣⁣⁣⁣Here, Jupiter is in our palms ⁣⁣Metamorphosis of…

    [515] Slivers of You & I

    The world knows me not⁣for they only see the living⁣I exist in the merrymaking dreams⁣I exist in the margins of time⁣I am the reflected ⁣But the reflection is all they see⁣⁣Subtlety of thoughts is my palace⁣The source of light is my kingdom⁣Yet in the five senses is where i am⁣usually lost and found⁣In forgetfulness is…
