Soul
Still searching,
still,
still...
I know,
I do know
its here,
but just cant find it.
It's in my hands,
it should be,
but,
but still,
I cant see...
It's just me,
and no one else
knows.
I deserve it,
I need it,
still,
still,
still searching...
I am scared...
Scared
...
Have you felt the same way, when you are, just in the same situation? Scared? Do you feel it?
Past is never forgotten;
time only teaches
how to live with it.

The future is not free
from the clutches
of the past.

Past is a mirror
within the soul—
unbroken,
omnipresent,
always there
to remind us
of what is left behind.

I wasn’t in time for so much…
I didn’t knit my bag out of rope.
Do you remember how I loved that:
Knitting, twisting… and I didn’t mope.

I wasn’t in time for so much…
I didn’t paint that indistinct canvas,
Which smells of magic autumn flavour,
With oil strokes, all wet with tears.

I wasn’t in time for so much…
I didn’t walk down Monmartre at all.
I didn’t visit that cafe in Paris,
Where they served clafouti after all.

I wasn’t in time for so much…
I didn’t kiss you ample for me.
I didn’t inhale you enough, my truelove.
Oh, if I only could foresee.

I wasn’t in time for so much…
I didn’t find in heart to tell you.
Do you recall that night when the star fell?
I made a wish that I’d never get lost you.
Thank you for reading this poem! 💖

Life is but just a number.
A day given, to each and every man.
A day to be born.
A day to die.
But each day is just a number.
So as each man knows not the numbers of his days.
Let's live each day, with love and care.
they say you should plant a seed
a seed of love and passion,
leave something growing after you


what can i plant
in scorched barren land?


that is what was left of my soul.

i am sure
i can do nothing.
i am so sorry.
i cannot be normal.
i cannot grow anything.


I
AM
SO
DONE

At
Some
Point
In the midst of
This.

It was all
Supposed
To make
Some
Sort
Of
Sense.

I'd make it
In my own
Way
And
Figure out what
It was that
I'm missing.

One day ,
Meaning
Was gonna meet
Me in some
Dusty, *****,
Back road,
And I'd
Finally
Live.

At least that
Was the lie,
I told people
To get them
To
Stay.

And,
I believed it,
For a while.

And
Wouldn't you
Know it,
I never did,
Quite, make
It past
Today.

I musta had
Some
Hopes and dreams,
Kicking around.

Probably threw them
Out
When I had
To leave.
It gets me nowhere
That’s true
But I still like
To think about you
It’s probably something
I’ll always do
When I see butterflies drifting in the air,

I remember how colorful my life once was—

just me and a garden full of flowers,

a canvas and its colors,

music and the rain,

stars twinkling in the night sky.

Now, all of it feels lost.
