"What am I to you?" he asked

"You're a cat. A cat-astrophe. Spellbinding" she replied.

And she was spellbound
the whole time.

You are a gift from above
A shooting star
You are the water
That washes away my blues and sorrows
That hardens my shell
Your strength and love
Guided me, gave me wings
Help me soar
Reaching beyond the walls of impossible
Your eyes
Soft and calm
They've seen through me
My tears, my laughter, my joys, my disappointments
Sparked when I am disrespectful
Stern when I needed a lesson
Wrinkles started to form
At the edge of your eyes, youth is fading
You are aging
Time will come and take you away from me
I will never trade the moments we shared together
The lessons you taught me
For your heart is of purest gold

Happy Mother's Day Mama

She had a rough start
Indirect communications
Blinded by words from third parties
"I don't like her" they say
Seething masses of resentment
"Where did I messed up?" she asked
A pursuit of calm in calamity

Behind those eyes, lies 2 pools of regret
Flooded every night, dries when the sun comes
Behind those lips, lies a fake smile
Switching its curves, as the sun switches with the moon
Behind her chest, lies a brokenheart
Constantly stitching itself with false hopes
Laughter through tears is her favorite emotion

But little did she realise
She is a combination of soft and strong
A combination where science could not fathom
She was a steel, and forever a steel
