Vachaspathi

When your soul parted from me
Even the pale sky cried pouring down heavily
Washing away the tears in my eyes but not your memories in my heart

Born

Death stalker

You don't have to kick me when am down
I've learned my lessons the hardest way
And it still pains me to ask
Does my suffering make you feel better?

My sluggish shadow
Stapled to my body
Reeking of despair
And the wanting, still keeps wanting

he asked!
Showing a masked face
Or faking a smile
Is all you've got
Does it help you in survival?

Fleeting memories, still
Clinging to my existence
I wasn't always like this
But it happened to me
Until it happens to you, sayonara

Carnal Solution

Write down the lines
Then burn it with the lies
Shut the mouth that sins
Seal it with a kiss
Bodies collided
The heat cannot be denied
Let lust consume me
To forget what he’s done to me
It was meant to end in fight
But naked in dimlight
When did it became a habit
To let our bodies speak
Instead of listening to our heartbeats?
I guess I can't desist
My desire for you I insist
And it's stronger than your sins

Yeah, watever comes my mind.
Late for work. Ugh.

Sirenes

Kiss your hands and dry your eyes

I did not learn
What you wanted me to.
However I touched your pain
Took it in as my own.
Carried it for a minute or a moment
The kind that feels like forever.
I shed your tears through my own eyes
And whispered the words,
The very same words that
Were the first ones to escape my lips
As I was an infant.
thank you
Thank you for sharing your pain
The same way, my pain was shared to you.
I would never see the world
The way you did
Unless I looked through your eyes.
I will not burden myself
With the hell that has been reintroduced to me.
I do not deserve such pain.
Nor do you.
So I will let it pass along
Like water under the bridge
And continue to love you
From the depths of who I am,
From the heart I share with you.
Turn my suffering in to gratitude
And send my wish in to the universe
To some day, kiss your hands and dry your eyes.

Rainbow Bridge

One day your family brings home a puppy
He becomes apart of the family and goes everywhere with you
Taking walks
Playing catch
Cuddling together
Loving each other
Years later his life takes a turn for the worst
He becomes very sick and no medication will help
You know the inevitable answer is in sight
The hardest choice you and your family has to make
Saying goodbye to your dog that became family
You make his last couple hours of life filled with fun, car rides and snacks
When the time comes you say goodbye as you watch him close his eyes
Even though you feel a emptiness in your heart
You know it was for the best and he is not suffering anymore
As you crossed over the rainbow bridge
Don't ever forget us
Because
We will never forget you boo...

My friend had to put her dog to sleep because he was very sick. I just wanted to write something to comfort her.

Grief

.
A grieving woman stands alone
by the grave of a friend departed.
In the relentless blistering cold
of a day that should never have started.

As tears roll down her ruddy cheeks
mourning the loss of a friend released,
the memories of her life are sad,
the pain has gone, the pain has ceased.

So all that's left for the grieving woman
are a grave and memories to recall.
As she turns to face the world once more
she sees a leaf from an Oak tree fall.

betterdays

rainy day wool gathering

cold weather outside
sad thoughts within

rains cleanses the windows
tears cleanse the hearts

rain gives water for growth
tears acknowledge slow death

clouds blanket the sky
my other gives me a blanket
both make the day warmer

the sun breaks through cloud
that heavenly beam of light
reminds me of my mothers faith
for her, everything will be alright

me, I gather my blanket closer
and cry into his broad shoulders
