Infinitesimally insignificant. A hopeless romantic in a hopelessly pragmatic world. A big fan of poetry though I can never really write my own.
"Don't look at me, you'll fall." She said. "I already did." I whispered.

Falling.
There are times When I want to be in a relationship. When I see a couple holding hands, I look at my own hand and ask, "When?"

A matter of Time
This stitch in time Will one day only be a memory Eventually to be lost To forever's eternity The pain and sadness Happiness and bliss Fades away and dies Forgotten to time's abyss Make the moments count Even if they will fade away You may not get a second chance You may not live to live another day

Stitch in Time
When people come to truths they dont want to deal with, they close their eyes. Hoping that the darkness will cover and hide everything. It isn't easy. It isn't worth it. It is painful. And hope is a torture sometimes. And though they are pretending they are okay, reality is they are dead inside when they are smiling. And with every pain they feel, they realize they are alive and then they choose to die inside over and over again.

Alive in Pain
A drink to my heartbreak, A toast to this despair, The break of a fall, The stunt of the dare. She was a beautiful mistake, A princess of the dawn, For this heart was unaware, Her love couldn't be won. The injustice of this tale, Served by my soul The ships have all sailed, While I am alone at the shore. The claps of the audience, Don't muse me with awe, The wind of the soul, Don't move me this late, She was a sun in the sky, The gift of the infinite, While I am a dust in this land, The enslaved seconds of the minute. But then I realised, I never told her how I feel, I cried in this foolishness, The hidden truth as the shades conceal. But I fear she will say no, No to my faith. I was a feather in this storm, A green leaf as the autumn bathe. Why the existence of pain in love? Isn't it supposed to be a victory, Well I was made a fool, The heartbreak of the century. So I ran with this fear, That this story would be of pain, For I confessed her the words, While she was dancing in the rain. And when she was about to proclaim I woke to this windowed sunrise, Shaping the shadows at the ceiling, To see it was a beautiful dream.

A drink to my heartbreak
Doesn't matter if you laugh or you cry, You'll be here, if you live or you die! Learn to light up your face with a smile And be constantly inspired by life. Are you sad? Then break into tears, If you're happy then burst into cheers, Get drunk or just be sober, It's your life, fill it up with color! Don't sit empty, never punish yourself. Rather go out, fall in love with yourself! Try to know; what drives you crazy? If it's life, then just be happy! Reap your sow and the rest, let it be. You live only once, now believe me Make peace with life and you'll see, Live your life and learn to be free! -The Silent Poet

Inspired by Life!
Draw your curtains block out the sun let all the hurt in stop all the fun close your eyes as you lay in bed cut off all ties be alone instead dwell on the past and have nightmares make sure they last cause nobody cares sleep in late never get dressed tomorrow can wait no cause to look your best don't bother shaving or even shower what use is bathing it's dark within the hour sit and mope focus on the pain destroy all hope of ever being sane devour junk food and drink liquor nothing kills your mood as quicker lounge around and watch TV drown out the sound of anxieties take your time to do every task writing rhymes behind a mask forget the date no need for a plan it can wait when you're alone man.

Ballad of a Lonely Man
Not because I'm naïve , He's saved me on countless occasions, So yes I believe, Tried living life astray but it brought some crazy complications. I believe in God, My prayers get answered no matter how old, His love is just so wonderful His mercies beautiful, His grace everlasting, And the knowledge of Him;fulfilling. Yes I believe in God, And yes I do love God. I'm so hopelessly weak without my God, I am a believer. Jesus Christ is my Saviour.

I believe in God
Don't let yourself Get close to me If you don't Intend to stay Don't dance Along the Thinning line Of loving and Going away Don't allow me   To attach myself To who I think You are, Better strangers With whole hearts Than broken Lovers From afar.
