ʍouʞ ʇuop I
Saba Sep 2020
I know being apart is what's best for us both,
but the selfish heart makes both of us think that there's hope.

I know there are many ways to cope,
but the selfish mind directs me to the nearest of ropes.

I know trying to love is like racing up slippery, steep slopes
But the selfish soul still craves forbidden fires even where there's no smoke.

I know...
...everything and nothing at the same time, a prisoner in my own body...

Painted skies
Saba Jan 2021
Maybe none of it is real
Maybe the sky was painted
Painted so well that it came to life
It moved, it shifted
It spun, it cried
It then rejected mankind
Even when they tried
Rejecting its creator,
like a rebellious child
Its creation being imagination
Or spoon fed lies
Our creation fabricated
By men in ties?

Where????
Saba Oct 2020
Maybe if I think about where I last saw it

Where I could've lost it

Retraced my steps

I could find my...uh

...My sanity??
*heavy sigh*

A smile you kept yourself
Saba Jul 2020
A smile
That changed the world
It made the sunshine
It dried up tears
It destroyed darkness
and destroyed fear
It brought joy and laughter
Mankind's antidote
It brought back peace thereafter
A thoughtful anecdote
Teeth came out of hiding
Reflecting light once more
A light too bright for fighting
The light opened a door
To your mind and to your heart
The light opened a door
To a new chance and a new start
All emanating from..
A smile
A smile you kept to yourself

Me, Me, Me
Saba Sep 2020
I feel like...

...everything she says, sings, posts and does
Is directed towards me

Every glance taken at me could be a step taken towards me

I make excuses for her actions but I know she ignores me

And everytime she makes a bitter statement I hope its not for me

But maybe that was the problem
Everything had to be about me, me, me...
But if you think it's about you it probably is

Masks

Hello Poetry
Saba Sep 2020
Is where I wake up in the evening
Is where I sleep in the morning
Is where I meet faceless hearts, souls, minds and special beings
Beings from different backgrounds, peasants and queens
Sharing their worsts and their bests as well as their dreams
Escaping the world that was not what it seemed.

Distractions
Saba Jul 2020
Distractions from reality
Dont eradicate or improve it
But could possibly be the reason for the horror of reality
Your means of escaping
is the reason for wanting to escape

Why
Saba Sep 2020
Why
Why do we long...





































...for the very one that hurt us??

Tears
Saba Jul 2020
There's a lot to say about the water
Almost as much there is water
As much as there is salt
And as much as it is bitter

As much as there is treasure
As much as there is gold
An amount that you can't measure
An amount that's very old

As much as there a ships
Boats, yachts and canoes
As much as there are oceans,
Rivers, dams and swimming pools

As much as there are bones,
Rotting flesh and shining scales
As sharp as the teeth eroding stones
And gliding tails

Theres a lot to say about the water
Almost as much as there is water
As much as there is land, life
And there is love

Our first mistake
was trying to give something as important, valuable, immeasurable and priceless as love a defenition
let alone...a designated word.
I still think I'm in love tho...
