I'm tired of people
I'm tired of hearing

I'm tired of feeling
I'm tired of seeing

I'm tired of turning
Everything upside down

I'm tired of life
And tired of feeling down

In the darkness,
all I could feel was the
emptiness that you left
behind...

Jumping in
  I shut both eyes
  my heart lay open wide

A first hello
  my last goodbye
  to logic ill applied

Choosing an entry
  frees all to move
  the first breath to a song

Getting out
  my mind rejects…
  forever pushing on

The ending shatters
  once breaking through
  as time cuts loose its grasp

That first step forward
  past my fear
   —a die forever cast

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2018)

You left without a word,
It hurt,
I swallowed  it like a bitter pill.
I carry a fake smile,
I lead my normal life as if nothing has happened,
I tell one and all you are my past.
But, every evening I await for you at the front door,
Thinking why you have not come  as yet.

I sold out my existence
in trying to buy your love.
