You and your things gone
Seconds seem to last forever
Ticking time, present stuck in the past
I seem to miss you more than ever
I was late and you left
It all seems weird and scary
A touch lingers on my fingertips
Feels like a nightmare
As I try to keep you forever
In mind and heart  
Wake me so I embrace you once more
I write and write, multiple times
To a destination with no address
In hopes it finds you
To relay what's unsaid
An emptiness in our lives you've made
With the space we took for granted  
Your peaceful farewell, a relief to all
If that's really what you wanted..

A happy family is all i see
It's mine ofcourse but without me
At times i feel like the main character, at times the side
So many secrets i hold within, no one to confide
We may be four but u seem content at three
If that's the case, am i allowed to be free?
I need the attention too, i just don't show it
I've loved you all through thick and thin, i think you should know it
This persona is not mine, it's a way of coping
You will understand me one day; am i wrong in this hoping?
The more you hate me, in a way relieves me
Afterall it's better to see ur disgust than the self that grieves me
Let me look at you all i want and give you a smile
You never know if I'll be there with you in a while

To capture you with my eyes
your beauty beyond containment
It's how the light falls perfectly
When my eyes meet yours
The glimmer visible and serene
As you dive deep into my mind
No shadows or flashes
Your pristine self
Divine before me

Imagine myself hanging
A sturdy place I seek
Oh! How I wonder
If I'll survive the week
Reasons I find
But are there any?
Additions occur
Not joy but misery
Death's kiss I desire
Securing the fire of life
Unable to digest
Disputes & chaos
Morals lie in graves
No wrong or right
Change occuring
No future in sight

Held u for the longest today
None happier than me
what caused distress to u
Delivered me glee
A first that you let me close
Maybe the last, who knows
Once everlasting, now momentary
How quickly time goes
To me what brought ecstasy
Terror, to you it seemed
Through the dark night
It were my tears that gleamed
Would never wish for that
It made me fear losing you
Began delving in past
Ignoring memories we made anew
I take upon me, your fears
In hopes you dream well
Got lots for u to hear
.. and me to tell
New memories to unlock
Together we'll stay
Repaint the walls
That turned blue and grey

Life is a flowery path, the thorns hidden out of sight
As they pierce my skin the realisation strikes
Things gone south, mind adrift in the midst of chaos
Feel my naive self dying, unable to grieve the loss
Nothing remains the same once u step out
Into the real world that's full of clout
Power and fame is all that you shall seek
Failed accumulation of which renders you meek
There's a need to be vigilant of every action
For, the morals have been monopolized by a limited faction
Values we learnt growing up have all gone to waste
No time left to relax, you better make haste
Seldom sunshine you'll find, mostly overcast
You ought to brace yourself, till death this race shall last
Plenty of chapters to unlock and characters for you to find
Through all this, will you be able to remain kind?
To yourself and to others who won't break your trust
Promise that you shall thrive even when you're at your worst
Seemingly peaceful, brimming with casualties
Such are life's unseen realities

Fragile and understanding
Just who everyone likes
Independent and opinionated
Is when the society strikes
Eager to show where she belongs
They comment unprovoked
No mind of hers, ideas stolen
Even in her thoughts she's choked
Fight for the basic becomes imminent
Mustering courage she defends
On sheer willpower she survives
Within a patriarchy promising absence of amends
On she dreams through her misery
In daylight and through nightfall
Trying her best to tell people
The world isn't fair for all!
She's desperate for change
Longs for freedom and respect
Revision of ideologies
Ways of life for all to accept
In such a society she wishes equality were a given
Wherein she'd be more proud than scared to be a woman
