Come closer you said
I walked blindly towards you
Blinding all the voices behind my head- all the voices that made perfect sense

So picked my mind and dumped it
Just like I did to all the other chaps

As I walked closer, and closer
I felt my heart vibrate vigorously- simply because your presence was just too energetic

Yet I was afraid  
I was so afraid I’ll lose it- lose you
So this time I picked my heart
Wrapped it in a box to hand it over to you
Like a birthday gift

I walked closer and closer
With my eyes wide open
With my fingers tightly wrapped around your gift
With my body ready to give
Only to realise it was a lie

A step closer to you
Only meant a step - into the deep, blue, ocean

Along the waves of the ocean
I heard my mother’s voice pierce
‘Love suffocates honey, trust your mind not your heart’

i was upset
you left my words hanging
you left my heart exposed
you left my clothes untouched
you left my skin un-savoured

i was upset
you left me

i tried to fill those words
to stitch that heart
and my clothes, couldn't get any other man to touch it

i was upset
so i left myself

Love me right
And I'll be the shooting star
In your empty galaxy

Losing her was hard

Only she could see right through me and ice my buring soul
Only see could hold my fragile heart so fine that it felt like home
Only she could tell me what I really deserve; and she often said
The Stars, and The Universe

Losing myself was hard
Because now the stars seem so little and the universe seems so small

love is not when you feel butterflies in your tummy
it's when he leaves
but those butterflies still can't escape

After our casual goodbye kiss,
‘I will love you till death do us apart’- he said

It took me eleven phone calls and the entire night to realise,
It came too soon
#death #love

I grew,
Not the kind of mental growth that makes you a whole new person,
Nor the kind of physical growth that would turn eyes

But I grew out-
Out of him,
Out of love.

They say forgiving makes you a bigger person,
But I believe the growth that come with forgiving is so much more.

When you grow,
You get to see the world,
That was blinded by his beautiful yet deadly, deceiving eyes.

You get to feel the world that you could not even see what more touch because,
Because his arms were protecting,
At least, that’s what he said.

And mostly,
You get to love -love the world,
Because when you were in love with him,
You didn’t have enough love to give anything or anyone but him.

So don’t stop growing,
Because today I grew,
I grew to love the me that doesn’t love him anymore.
