A letter from Love
My heart, you look better. Much better than I last saw you. Your wounds have healed. They turned scars I can barely see. You no longer cry or scream. I like what you’ve become. So here is the key. Run wild and free.

Healed
Please wait a while my beautiful lonely smile Perhaps just a little bit longer Let me hide behind you and let depression know I am stronger with your crooked design you distract the tears from falling in line and with the strength you hold in this emotional poker, I am certain I wont fold Please wait awhile my beautiful lonely smile hide my grief and show the world a perception of bliss but please remain crooked and let our mediocre deceit of happiness create an opening through the cracks giving them a view of our melancholy so eventually they can reach out and say, I see you.

Conversations With a Smile
Where are you? Tell me you hear me Show me your location And let’s fast forward to that beautiful occasion Relieving destiny of her duty Merging as one As we obstruct the balance of molecules in the universe Taking our ordained position in this world Listening to only our words Losing touch with everything except each other Making the carbon bonds in diamonds jealous of our union Letting them watch from your finger As we spend eternity together Where are you? If you can hear me Show me

Where are you?
Don't take all of me. I don't know who else I will be. But if you may do, then please, share a part of you.

Share a part of you
In that moment in time, when our lips locked, it felt heavenly. And when we closed our eyes, we lost ourselves in reality. And In those infinite seconds in space, I had a glimpse of eternity with you.

The Kiss
Was it worth it? I ask myself as I stand on a cliff, watching the waters, listening to the waves whispering my name, telling me about about peace in an end. I search deeply for a reason to stay. Looking to the sky for a sign for a better day. Having flashbacks of battles fought, Sacrifices made, Bridges burnt, Scars that won't fade, and the pain of hope, That all will be worth it. I hold my heart on my palm. Scolding myself for wearing it on my sleeve. Contemplating crushing what's left of it. Cause the plasters won't hold its pieces together. Walking closer to edge of the cliff, I let go of my heart. The atmosphere gets colder and I shiver. I block out the screams of people telling me I was enough. I am enough. No! I'm not. For if I was, She would be here. So I shut my eyes and turn my back, Taking three short steps backwards. I find myself missing the third step, Falling... Falling... Falling... And before I hit the waters below, I utter out my last words, "Take care of her" Good night..

Good Night
Don’t come close… I’m covered in thorns, she said. I ignored and tried to hug her and found myself bleeding, trying to put my arms around her. Don’t! she said. And I struggled to wrap my arms around her. Each spine of thorn piercing through me, breaking my bones and bursting out of my back. Stop it! she cried. And I kept struggling, bleeding and shaking, till I got my arms fully around her. Why? She asked. The light in you, seems worth fighting for. The love in you, seems worth having. The happiness in you, seems worth provoking. You are dying! she said. Some causes are worth dying for. For pain mirrors what it means love. And I will give my last breath just to let you know You are worth loving…

You are worth loving
As soldiers at war We arm ourselves with guns and bombs Wearing bulletproof jackets to protect our hearts Leaving trails of liquor As we throw shots in the air Fighting against pain and it’s army Taking revolving shots till we see pain go down And then we rejoice at its fall Dance with excitement And live beautifully But then pain shows up disguised as a gift We welcome pain in unknowingly And it begins its work We feel it holding us hostage from within Squeezing our throats and turning our stomachs Tormenting our minds And breaking us gradually Till we uncontrollably bleed through our eyes We struggle with the inward war And gradually lose ourselves to pain Laying on the floor with the inability to move Blinded by tears and hibernated in isolation But the irony We become victims Falling in love with our captor Holding on to pain as it gets tired of us and tries to set us free Having a love hate relationship Torturing ourselves with the struggle to live with pain and let go And so we hold on to pain Cause we are scared of the truth Once pain is gone We lose grip of what we are holding on to We finally have to say “Goodbye”

Pain
Deep breaths as I stand by the sea Each step colder as I draw closer Debating on what direction to take Trying to ignore my feelings As my head and I argue on the choice to make My head reminds me of love and warmth And the dream of a home built on mutual admiration It then reminds of how every kiss and hug sparks butterflies and chemistries But then I present my case Telling my head that things are not what they appear to be Calling my feelings as a witness Testifying that sadness comes after every expression of desire Loneliness comes after every proclamation of love And yet a sight draws me closer And I become addicted to the drug that is her I plead for daily doses Scratching my head as a result of the low supply Dragging each dose like my life depended on it And dying inside due to the toxic nature of it I wake up in different mind cities Hallucinating a perfect world Avoiding the reality at all cause But it’s just my mind that has been corrupted Blocking my vision of truth And so I plead with my head to see reason with my feelings Begging for a chance for therapy To loosen myself from the bounds of this toxicity Cause with just a few steps closer towards the sea There will be nothing left of me For people see.
