Blood, more blood On the walls The door What you see is rusted blood stains I see the flashbacks Of myself, Injecting poison Thinking it’ll save me from my demons You see sickening red colour, I see my struggle I see the girl swaying in thin air, Trying not to fall, trying not to collapse I see the arms with blood running down them, I hear the muffled screams, “Help me, someone?” Oh what a sight, that I can’t un-see now She’s falling, hitting her head on the floor Is she brainsick? To yet put herself in this mess again Overdosing like it’s a candy you can’t resist Oh but, she’s only a human, Trying to survive, trying not to die of emotions Trying to let go of traumas she can’t forget She’s only a girl She’s only a human She’s not a monster

Needles
It begins with a tragic sigh A sudden cool breeze Tortuous cold fog Leaving you unable to see After a while, you stare at the broken pieces Your shadow shattered on the floor Tears falling one by one You wait for someone to knock at the door Days pass by, while you sit and rot Too scared to open your eyes You keep the curtains closed You question, “Time flies?” But then on a very subtle day You shake your head and get up It starts with taking a deep breath Feeling that air in your body, down your lungs You walk to the kitchen, slow and steady And make some coffee for yourself Still confused but something lights up inside you You pick up and read the book buried on the shelf It seems like you have to start from the beginning Back from when you were just a kid Pushed into this cruel world to “live” Your whole life looks like a dark pyramid You no longer wait for that knock You stop longing for that one hug You give up on the idea of being “saved” So you ponder and let it go with a soft shrug Whatever meant the most to you Sounds like a stupid idea now All that grief you were holding within Seems like a television picture or a show And this is how you know This is the art of letting go

The Art of Letting Go
I am not gonna meditate on you anymore I am not gonna think about you anymore You came like a lightening bolt Then left like you were never here Making me question my own identity Making me question my life’s reality Was it just in my head? Was it a dream? Was it a nightmare that I didn’t see? Aloof, my mind strays in different directions Were you someone I thought you weren’t? You walked in and embraced me like a child Told me you wanna hear all about my mind Held my hand so it wouldn’t shake while i speak You said you won’t judge me even if I hung myself on a tree Then one very fine day, you started drifting away Into the abyss, where I couldn’t even hold onto you I kept latching onto the shadow you left behind Tried to manifest you back cause I was always crying But I’m tired now, and I can’t go on like this And so they say, The final act of loving someone, Is letting them go So I let you go
