Hatchet

She Writes
When I asked if we could bury the hatchet;
I didn’t mean in my back.

I am the song
You love at first listen
Put me on repeat
Until you tire of me
Delete me off your playlist
Replace me with a new song

Broken Things
 Apr 2018 F
She Writes
Carrying the weight
Of too many broken things
Enervated her tired back
Broken things are the heaviest
Just look at the weight of a broken heart
She traversed the world
Collecting broken hearts
Trying to find the pieces
To fill all of her cracks

When I was young
I used to scribble on paper
Lifes lessons
turned me into a poet

She parted her lips
Like holy water
And he worshiped her skin
Like a born again believer

Hurricane

She Writes
She loved him
Like hurricanes love destruction
Cleaning up the aftermath
Of their devastating relationship
He realized why storms
Were named after women like her

My body,
My mind,
And my everything.
Me,
I sit on the chair,
And I wither out in one night.
Every night.  Every time the sun goes down on earth,
Every time the earth wakes up with its sun.
Every time it hides it's affair with its moon,
Showing itself  only her reflection.
I still sit on the chair, and wither out.
I sit on my terrace,  and wither out.
I zone out. I talk about myself.
I write poems all by myself.  But this is me.
My body, my heart, my mind.
Help me. Because something within me loves to feel pain.
Something
Within
  Loves to wither out.

When my world was covered by darkness, the dimmed light of yours lightens up my world.

You were my best companion
You brought me joy.
You put a smile on my face almost every day.
You showed me how beautiful this world could be.
You made me want to do everything with you under the sun.

But, it was also you that destroyed all of these.

You stole and broke my fragile heart.
You pushed me back into my small little world.
You made me feel as if I was just a worthless piece of paper.
You were the cause of my misery.
You took away my warmness.

Now, I am just a person who is cold as ice. I am too afraid to be hurt again. My grey world is just a distance away from darkness.

i am trying to spread my wings
i am trying to heal in a place that isn’t good for healing
i am not healthy
i am not healing
i am sick
i am withering away
and i am trying to fix myself for you
but it is not working
and for that
i am sorry
when i write it is about you.

I'm kind of stuck
At least... I think I am
Somewhere between telling everyone I know to *******
And "just please come hold me friend"

Some place in between an uneasy heart and hectic mind

"I'm depressed"
Can't I just say it without having to explain why?
Sometimes I don't even know which reason to choose

Short replies

"You seem like you don't want to talk"

You're right, but I also want to reach out
I want out
I want to let go of everything
And capture it all in my arms

like a fire fly in the palm of restless hands,
Just let me hold on to your light
Atleast, just for tonight

Because I'm feeling stuck.
