I ain’t sure if I can call this home. There are chairs, carpets, walls, and doors, but this place doesn’t breathe with voices anymore. Carpets can't remember the weight of living The walls stand, bland and grey, and the doors stay closed as if they mean it. There are souls here, but none that truly reach. All so busy that even when someone begs for a moment, their noise dies down into quiet drops of loneliness, Just to realize, they can’t afford to beg for it.

Lonely Home
I want to live— not that I want to be a escapee, rather I want to be the kind that— If I were a pencil, let me be the sharpest tip. If I were a race, let me be the fastest stride. If I were a wing, let me reach the highest air. If I were a fragrance, let me be the softest trace that lingers. I only want — to live in the truest shape of the life I chose.

want to live..
Every time I bet, I lose, Realizing I don’t know you yet. Still, I keep placing coins on the table, Hopeing today might be it. But I find myself falling sway, With empty pockets day after day, Watching the coins spin, Unable to walk away.

Losing bet...
What are we, my friend? Not rabbits from the same warren, yet we share our carrots and the hidden burrows of our grief. You may not know my deepest lows, yet somehow you still make my spirit binky on the most ordinary afternoons. A single glance from you brings calm, and my worries scamper off at the funny sight of your face. Maybe it’s just a classic friendship, but I find it rare— all the joy of the hop, the comfort of a bunny’s quiet heart. Its wonder: a small, white fullness— a whole life, softly living itself right to the brim.

My Friend
I do not love with conditions, but I love with expectations. To be heard like the melody you know by heart, To be seen like the North Star you navigate by, To be held like the worn teddy bear you could never forget. And from this soil, my hope unfolds— the fragile,daring dream to be loved as you have never loved before. To become not just another, but the one you cannot lose.

Irreplaceable
summer never stays forever, and winter too must fade. so I choose memories — to feel the sun in frozen months, to warm my hands on moments long gone. for in the coldest, loneliest days, they return — soft as echoes of laughter, gentle as light through frost. but seasons, they are wanderers; they never stay forever.

Memories or People
Don't ask me what I mean When you read my poems I wrote them- Because the weather was uncertain, Because words fell short of the heaviness in air, of the quite weight of humidity I could never simply explain...

Weather was uncertain
reading plath, i wondered — must every poem bleed from a broken heart? or do some verses bloom for the bright and the unbroken — for flowers that know they will wither or be plucked, yet still sing softly of the sun that once held them, and the wind that called their name

Do All Poems Bleed?
if I've scattered like star dust just to glow in your sky Maybe- that too is a kind of becoming.

A Kind of Becoming
Her heartbeat synchronizes with my joys Her breath aligns with my every stride In my achievements, she find her purpose for she has woven her universe within me
