19/F/in search of a dream Somewhere between learning to love myself and loathing this world
Death is not creeping up to me I am running straight to it Just a tiny spec in the universe Forgotten only after it blossomed My hands are losing its grip I am bound to let go anyway This slowly fading presence Insignificant in the eyes of others There is no fight left in me Let it be if the world rejects me Karma is only giving what is due And I am in no place to reject it The feeling of pain is gone now Here there is only nothingness I feel so light, without worries I am undeserving but will go in peace All I need is to be forgotten I don't need to be six feet under Nor ashes to be scattered at sea For at last I can rest from this lifetime

Dear Mister Grim Reaper
We're all acting fine until you're lying in bed The lights are out you give yourself break There's no one's there to see you anyway A blanket over your head a pillow hugged to your chest As the years start to fall A hand put to muffle the sobs Until sleep takes over you those years dry themselves You wake up to tommorow only to wait till night comes And cry yourself to sleep again

Life in quarantine
As the Stars twinkle at night Each light comforts another And another, and another A dim glow from the universe Under this breathtaking night sky Children blending in the background As they wait for heaven’s graces Stars seem to have more twinkle than their eyes As the night grew longer, and the moon rose higher Heaven’s graces are nowhere to be found Unlike the stars that were apparent to everyone’s eyes They were hidden away in the darkness A chorus of stomach growls are heard from the alleyway They cannot wait for heaven’s graces no more Each person passing by is as if a star in the night sky Heaven’s grace is in such close reach A glimmer appeared in their eyes And other from the cold metal in their hand Slowly they try to reach for the stars To silence the cries of hunger in their head

Treasures in the Night
I never got the chance To just sit down and feel the wind Blow sweet whispers in my ear How would it feel to be completly still As the clock stops ticking For all the good reasons I may be alone, but no not lonely As the birds fly in the sky so peacefully So quiet that I hear my own heartbeat I never got the chance to give Although it's fair since I never looked for it Since they said let love find you How nice would it be To just tear this facade of a fantasy And just pour out all of my anxiety All I want in life is to be happy Turns out things don't work out that easily You grovel and grovel and grovel A field of flowers in every horizon Go cry your heart out Go scream till your lungs hurt No one will hear you anyway Now put your mask back on Put a smile on your face

Paradise
i loved you not because of your scent or because of the crinkle in your eyes i did not love you because of the melody in your laughter or the brightness of your smile no. i did not love you because you gave me flowers or because you sang me a song. and i certainly did not love you because of the warmth of your embrace or the softness of your hand in mine. i did not love you because you stayed up hours to talk to me. no. i loved you because you saw what no one else ever saw in me. i opened my closet of monsters to you and even with fear in your eyes you embraced me. i loved you because you still stayed beside me despite the fact i was not as beautiful as you. i loved you because of the gentle patience you gave to me when i was filled with nothing but doubt and despair. i loved you because of the time you spent with me when i was scared of my own self. i loved you because despite the fear i instilled in not only myself, but you as well, you tamed me. you loved me when i did not love myself and for that, i truly did love you.

i did not love you
"Are you in love?" 'No, not yet.' "When do you think you'll fall in love?" 'Come the day I'll learn to love myself.' "When will that happen?" 'Surely not anytime soon.' "And why is that?"

2 a.m. Rambles
The warmth of your hug Just melts away The tense nerves On my body You're all I need After a tiring day My home my comfort It's as easy as One, two, three To fill my heart with glee

One Winter Night
Poems aren't written, they're found, Somewhere in your head the words are waiting, They're sprawled across the floor, You just need to pick them up, Make a path with them, Let your path guide observers, And if you can't write, Walk down somebody's else's path first,

Poems Are Found
I missed my chance To make a wish It's this time of the day I find my head Swarmed with thoughts But I find no one To share these to So all I do Is to write instead
