I have never met you
And yet I keep writing about you
Maybe I hope to meet you someday
Sometimes I wonder do you actually even exist?
Are people like you still out there?
People who genuinely love and care
People who don't judge
People who are quite selfless
People who are patient
People who are ready to listen
But then again when I don't possess those qualities myself..
...its wrong and hypocritical of me to expect that from someone else

In this life, feet catch fire
and
people burn

Remember your dream
when
it is your turn

You will see your ashes
but
you will manage to breathe

If
you sustain the flames
inside
your dreams

Your ashes will float
and
shimmer like gold

You will rise as a
Phoenix
with wings to behold
When a cycle ends, a new one begins. Stay true to your dreams, persist.

It feels like something unwanted stuck in my throat,
Preventing my voice to be loud and clear,
Making my breathing difficult,
My brain keeps on telling me to cut it open,
That unwanted thing is better gone.
Once I cut it open,
Will I be freed too?
I thought that I am strong, but why am I having this suicidal thoughts too?

The heavens were mad,
So the clouds thickened and rained,
Tearing on the earth.
Your grips are too tight,
Cycles of day and night,
Enraged, yet unsatisfied,
Still, you didn't realise,
The hand in your right,
might shrink down to size.

Sometimes, we lose our minds, in hopes to understand them.
Sometimes, we lose someone, as we try to do the same thing.
And we start asking, who is the stranger we see in the mirror everyday?

You’re much like the rain,
You can be soft or heavy,
Or kind to my drought.
your presence
is all
i need.

I feel it raining,
On a cloudless sunny day,
Flooding only me.
I looked around me,
They're all dry and clean,
As the coldness touch my skin.
