Scared to love.
The Untold Oct 2020
There is zero emotion in your eyes
But
the way we cuddle,
makes my heart warm.
But
When I think of loving you -
my heart ceases to beat,
I realise I am only here
because I'm scared to be alone,
scared to love.
And so are you.
Late night thoughts.

What about us?
We loved
We made memories
You're gone now

I wished i could bring you back
As i cried my heart out.

My smile wide as our friendship

I prayed you'd never try that again
Your life is priceless
My bestfriend you're the best I've ever had.

Broken.
The Untold Feb 2022
I learnt to fly,
Spread my wings
Let the breeze of love
Carry me away.
But then it started to rain
My dear sunshine was no more
A bad storm,
it pushed you away from me.
I crashed into the ground,
Broke into many pieces,
With no strength to rise,
I'm fallen.
Lost.
It doesn't matter, even with the purest of hearts, you'll be broken. Your sun will be covered by the clouds.

Sol
We loved so hard
dreamed too much
I felt our souls connect-
in the deepest parts of the ocean
we were drowning,
Faces white,
we struggled to breathe...
Held on tight until our hands turned red
We knew we'd fail,
as we did in our past lives,
as we will in our next.
And the fishes stared,
waiting to eat our carcasses,
We'd done this before,
We knew how it ends but we did it anyway,
I was luna, maybe you were my astral twin.
I'm going crazy because I'll write so much with very deep and hidden meaning 😭

The Untold May 2021
I can't reignite it
    I can't go back
         I only sit helplessly
             Waiting for your return
                  Then I'll be a shadow
An art in your heart.
It will be easier to let go by then.

You are a student of science
I am a student of art and science.
Space is art,

It's illusion -
peace.
But -
When you want to get back to earth
I'll be long gone-
a supernovae
Maybe I'll be venus to strike your morning sky,
And just maybe I'll be lucky enough to see you wake up with her in your arms.
Once it's gone, it's gone.

The Untold Nov 2018
When you said you'd love me,
Were you ready??
To deal with my moods,
To cope with my temper,
To make me believe in love again?
To understand that I'll make you wait,
That it won't be a smooth road,
That i break apart easily,
Now that you want to leave,
I'll let you leave but I'll ask one question-
were you ready??

The Untold Oct 2018
I loved what never belonged to me
A love so sweet
But so not right
A love so wide
Yet such a secret love
A love so broken
And still so captivating
A love so fake
But unbelievably bewitching
A love that never was
Which faded in the end
I lost what i learnt to love
And cried for what never was mine.

Fragrance and a whisper
The Untold Jan 2020
Promises made are broken easily
You left these scars for me to heal
You left this pain for me to ache
You weren't a dream neither real
It was about a single touch
a peek into your eyes to feel
the fire that lights up the heart
It was about the hurt
not about the love or the heart,
and the tension and the heat
I'll forever remember to forget
The ache and hurt and pain onset
by that fragrance and a whisper

Do I remember those eyes
those lies
hidden beneath?
Do I recall those lips

of a reeded tongue?
And were you even my lover

You were here-
my heart to ****
you weren't for real.
It's a painful confession,
A burdened admission.,

"I was your nothing"
The Untold May 2020
Roses are red
Violets are blue
I was in love, but so were you.

Times changed
You changed.
I still remembered that-

Roses are red,
But my roses are dead
and they crumble under my feet,
their thorns pierce through my skin.

Violets are blue,
But my violets are due
To wither in my hands-
their petals slip through my fingers.

I am in love,
                        and I am dead.
... I hope you are too.
This is for you. You said you'd fancy a poem for you.

You are my favorite.
And we are an ocean,
We still our dreams and memories
Memories we'll never lose,
Because our life is made up of jokes, smiles, memories and love.
You are my love.
My best friend.

ALL IT TAKES
The Untold Oct 2018
A lifetime to build a friendship
Just for the sake of companionship
The heart was never asleep
Coz at first the mountain didn't seem so steep

It takes three seconds to break
A bond we thought couldn't shake
A heart broken to many pieces
that learnt to live in many phases
Its all it takes.

It's the tongue
that causes the tie to die
For many cannot hold them in.
Friendship secrets are-
meant for a dual
But we treat it as casual
And once broken it's final
It only takes a second.

The Untold Nov 2018
The moon today looked unfamiliar
The stars tonight are beautiful
I see you in every single thing
And baby am amazed by you.

Love doesn't ask why
i left my tears long ago to dry
my heart slowly to heal
because for every second i ****
am saving me lost soul-
now it's all damp and foul
But soon enough I'll be real
Coz now it has taught me to heal.

My heart was all dark
with pains that would never lack
My one ***** seriously cracked-
by one word that now *****.
Eyes that would always glare;
Like a wounded angry mare,
i would always flare.,
For then, i never seemed to care.

Now am all so outworn,
Very rare smiles its always a florn.
All the memories are gone.
My heart, like shattered pieces of glass on a floor.
My life has been all lone-
And now gone.

WHEN I DIE
The Untold Oct 2018
When i die
Please do not shed a tear for me
Do not lose hope in life
Never be dismayed
My dear ones;
Take my body to the beach
And burn me to ashes
Then send my pieces to the fishes.
I pray you,
Only at sunset send me-
To sink below with the setting sun
That my life will be all gone!
Then at sunrise;
Wake up with a smile on your face
Ready to start a new life
But at every sunset
Shed at least a tear
As you remember me;
In the setting sun
In the shinning stars
And the bright moon
All in the night sky.
I promise;
I'll always send you a sign
That will make you smile
Because that's all that will make me-
Rest In Peace.

The Untold Oct 2020
I can see a star
from my window
Twinkling
Shining
Lonely -
Speaking to me.
He says he knows all I've lost,
why I shut my doors.
He's been here for long,
he sees your dreams every night.
And he says I look familiar -
He saw me in your dream,
He sees me now.
And that made me stop listening,
start smiling.
But when I looked again,
he wasn't outside my window.
Whether it was a desperate dream
or real,
I hope he comes tomorrow,
to tell me if we had found love,
Or we were dying.
Because I need my alive or dead,
I am a twinkling lonely star.
Off the cuff.

My poetic night.
The Untold Apr 2019
It's a poetic night because the heart is deficient of someone's love.
Do you just open your eyes and decide she's not the one you've always wanted?
It's a poetic night because the night sky is plain.
Did you just throw away the memories we spent ages painting and assumed we never were?
It's a poetic night because her mind is clouded by thoughts of you.
Did you just forget her?
It's a poetic night because her eyes are misted with hurt and pain.
Do you even care any more?
It's a poetic night because she is full of hope that you'll be back, but,
Does poetry stir the love in you anymore?
This night reflects all that poetry is, still glistering in the absence of stars.

because everytime I shut them I see you.
It's been hard to let go
mainly because you'd become my life.

You moved on fast and easy,
and now,
it's up to me to do the same.

I know I would hate it to love you again.

Maybe am just scared to be lonely
Scared to love again.
Not really a poem.
I didn't have someone to talk to, so hp is my closest friend. I have to move on.

She lost her smile
She lost the sparkle in her eyes

Ice cold
Cold

Ice.
Because of you, her eyes were opened. Why would you trust a random white man? Why would you trust a random black man? Why would you be willing to give away your heart so that they can fill their trashcans? Why would you love, just to break?

That give me temporal comfort.

Sorry pillow, am lonely

THIS WAS US
The Untold Oct 2018
You looked into my eyes and saw
Saw the love that connected us
Something only you and i could feel
You looked at my lips and pictured -
The many times you'd kissed them
Something only you and i were sure of
You held at my waist and said
All the magical words you'd memorized
Something only you and i could hear
You looked into my eyes and saw
Saw the love that never was
Wondering where the feeling was from
You looked at my lips and thought
Of the many times you'd kissed them
But surely it was barely an year.
You held your hands together and -
Watched me walk away slowly
Regretting and cursing the day we met.

Dream.
The Untold May 2020
When I closed my eyes
I saw you, like I've done for the past whole month.
I was running to you-the good you
I was running from you-the you that hurt me.
This time it wasn't a fragrance nor a whisper,
It was a heart that seemed too sincere
I will always run to you in my dreams
because in my mostly childish naivety,
I dream of seeing your face and grazing it will my finger
I dream of kissing your lips and hearing you say you'd fight.
I wanna sleep forever, never open my eyes, because then we'll share a life,
And because then,
I am a teardrop and when the sun comes up, I'll fall and become a million grains of salt.
I will evaporate and no one will remember my existence... Not even you, because you've started wiping away everything.

Tintinnabulation.
The Untold Jun 2020
At the edge of a cliff
we made love
under grey skies
your love came crushing over me
pushed me to the edge,

There was pain
rushing through my veins
and
pleasure, peace
with your soft skin against mine
brushing swiftly,
quietly,carefully
possessively gripping me
black and white-
now grey,

My lips parted
your name
escaping them in a gentle whisper
of relief,
of pain
knowing I might be repeating a mistake.

Your words-
hold on to me,
I'll never let you go
I reminisce holding on,
tight
   right.

Hazy sights
I couldn't feel you
my dream
was alive
you let go,
I heard the sound
a bell
in your grey eyes,
I saw the sun
a smile.

If you don't save me
again
I will hit the ground,
become a million grains of sand
when I come back,
in a different form-
a vase for your sunflowers
reminding you-
we made love
die
in our hearts.
Just a piece, for healing.

The Untold May 2020
Up all night
Staring into your eyes
I was sinking deep
I was getting lost
And I know by morning,
I'll still be alone
But I don't know if
I'll be alive
Unless you're here with me.
but do you ever stay up all night thinking of me?
I'm I too naive to ever think you'll be with me?
89 · Jun 2020
Distant eyes.
The Untold Jun 2020
When I stare into your distant eyes
I wonder if you were meant for this distant love
If they'd look the same,
If we held on to hope, love
If I saw you face to face
If you saw me face to face.
Your eyes are always so distant, as if they are searching for peace so far away. I want to get lost in them, where distance doesn't hurt, but hope lightens the heart, love puts a smile across your lips.
