Loneliness isn’t limited to being alone. It transcends to a form where even though you are surrounded by everyone you want to be surrounded by, you still feel utterly alone. Loneliness is not the physical manifestations of people but the mental manifestation of us in their minds. If we are not in their minds when…

[77] Living In Extremes.

I live in the extremes of life. Even though it can be said that the closer we are to the extremes, the further we are from life. In a sense, extremes are a veiled longing for death. Extremes for an artist is to persevere and finish the project she/he’s been working at for months. But…

[76] The Wrong Decision.

Heavy eyelids betray control of emotions unaccounted for. I say words that mean nothing because I speak and not write. Sounds vibrate my eardrums when she whispers loudly the three words I longed for. The longing is no longer there, though The words cut me like anxiety in disguise A modern world apocalypse it seems like to…

Sometimes you forget that reality breathes. You ask yourself if this spectacle in front of you is a painting or a dream? The scenery is beyond an impressionistic work of art. Like an echo of a time that you can almost touch, the reality fades into a daydream where sounds cease to exist and imagination…

[73] Head Full of Rain

Let me be around your loneliness to do away with a bit of mine The rules of happiness I seem to break Can you tell me the way to despair? Being with you earns me nothing but illusion A mighty empire on a fickle ground Of which you’re the empress, the queen, the shining light…

[72] The Woman You Knew

Her existence demands a myth that writes itself. Her gaze, an invention of beauty in the eyes of who can view A haze that shies away when she arrives I lie to myself an unfamiliar dream But she’s not a dream but its shadow An eerie mirage of blues mixed with wines I can’t pronounce She…

[71] The Dinosaur Poem.

Fear of the unknown unsettles the clarity I was happily settled in The unsettling turns into a grim excitement as ego burns the fear away into a galaxy unknown. I embark. They appear, towering 20 feet above the trees Resilient, sturdy legs and a roar that deafens even silence In hope for an unknown galaxy,…

We all suffer from hope. A hope for a universal desire to be loved. To be loved for who we are is what we look for in a relation, be it friendship or romantic. But no one can love you for all that you are. So you build up a facade of who they want…

She lies beside me in a wakeful slumber Gulping down the dose of not speaking secrets she hides To watch her eyes, I am reminded of the colours of the space The lesson they provide: to not go beyond what you’ve been given The reason why she tells me not to look in her eyes.…

[65] My Darling

Terrorise me through your love, my darling Force your way into my mind Break what I’ve made until now because you call for a masterpiece made of and for you entirely. Be violent in your approach, my darling because I exist for a passion that numbs the world that we live in, to enter the…
