I know it's hard to let it go
but it's for the best,
Letting go will make you grow,
so it'll not become a pest.

You're struggling,
I know,
But if you let it go,
The pain and suffering,
I know will surely go.

I can't take back the love that I gave you,
You found another one, but it's true
That I'm the better one....
I gave you my everything,
My love and affection,
But you give me a heart full of mistakes,
I gave you my heart, and you made it break?
I just made a poem out of one of my friends WhatsApp statuses.

My friend, you'll always remain my shimmer no matter how many shadows cage me.

Those memories
come flying back
Reminding you of the past
good and bad
happy with sad

Sitting in the corner
they play
You want to remember good times
but remember the bad ones

Memories
of People
of Places
of Loved ones
and Enemies

They last for all eternity
no matter what
Things may be forgotten
but memories are not
They stay forever!

Want to run away
Be free from myself
My thoughts and feelings
Conflicting yet comforting

Your heart's deepest desires
in a flourish of words
that hold no definite meaning
yet touch you in a way nothing else can.

Even when the sun stops burning
There shall still be hope
And until the last with true faith remain
The earth shall not collapse
For when even one stands
It is better than none at all
A tribute to all those that take a stand when no one else does

We lay together viewing city lights dance

Against starry skies

Illumination only we see.

Shades of people pass by

As night chill prickles skin.


Interlopers hiding in shadow we cling

Weighted by it's gravity.

Brought back to each other

As light begins to play with shadow

Loving in the dark we feel most free.

She questions
All seeing and feeling
With hope for a future
She fights alone
And weeps in silence

We should listen

Deeply wounded she fights on
As parts of her die
Her vision never leaves the sky
Staring towards the heavens
With a prayer on her breath and resolve slowly weakening

We begin to hear

Small acts become large bolstered by numbers
She finds breaths become easier
Only as we fight for her soul
Can the world become whole

We are but moments in time,
Atoms smashed together.
Formed into transient alliance,
Only to part then reform
Into an endless cycle of renewal.

We survive
Creating memories as we go.
Briefly touching and connecting
With others.

In cognizance of this
All meetings have meaning.

As we smash our way through life,
It’s imperative we connect
And make some sparks

Before we fade away...
Slide into the dark.
