universe has sorely kind inclination towards poets,
stars crumble in their rib cages,
their hearts are enlightened,
hope ingrained in their crowns,
courage sprouts from their bones,
what are they fed on?
words that they pick up from life’s vendor table,
stories carved in hued hands of time,
a realm set in their mind,
drifts them where there is life,
a garden full of lilies and fairy lights,
beneath the darkness of the breathing sky,
acquainted with the stars they get scattered,
or be one as sun and bless,
as composed as the silence of oceans,
and as loud as breaking of their waves.

You were like that kid,
afraid of the dark but still living,
sneaking and hiding there
until caught by your lovely little lies.

Her thoughts are like a hurricane—
lifting her from the ground of sanity
and tossing her among the rubble of darkness.

Say that you don't need
just sunlight and water, because
you're more than a sunflower.

In the light of thy moon eyes,
thy heart screamed the depths of oceans,
while your tongue turned to stone,
bleeding words.

You are on the way
to drowning in the abyss
this world is going to offer you.

Thy little eternity
awaits you a few more breaths,
and a few more sunsets
before it gets dark.

And like a bird,
I perched on the branch of a tree,
calling it home
when I had nothing
to build home with.
Then, I flew into the air,
believing I'd fly forever.

And we dreamt
until our eyes
became sore from slumber.
