I had very little to give.
I knew what I had to give wouldn't be enough,
But that was all I could give,
So I gave you my all.

And now, I'm empty inside.

I CRIED.

I cried like a new born baby, no one could calm me.

I cried, until my tears ran dry and I was left empty inside.

In my mourning and grief,
I cried and cried and cried.

I cried, till my knees dropped to the ground, because for once I had lost something that could never be found.

GIBBERISH

Everything is everything
and only nothing happens without a reason.
If I was to say more, it'll probably be GIBBERISH.

a nobody.

You were a nobody, a nobody
       And nobody cared about you
                   Now your a somebody,
   And everybody talks about you.

                                               ( oh ,    )

                    Your a somebody now,
                         So not just anybody
                            gets to talk to you ?

5:00am , a summer morning .
After a long party night,
I'm out on the balcony,
Drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes.
I found myself smiling,
as I was rereading our old whatsapp texts.

THE EULOGY.

Kind words for the unkind.
Same, as sun shines for those in the dark.
Just, only just for the unjust.
Kind words, uttered for the unkind,
No, it's not right and could possibly be mistaken for lies but I guess it's only kind.

SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS.

Amazing grace,
how sweet the sound.
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, and sadly I still am.
Lost in a maze,
I lost my ways.
Lost in translation.
Like yesterday,
I'm lost never to be found again.
I lost it ,
l lost my mind.
Lost a lot friends and lost my self in the process.

- sorry for your loss.
