There is no rain to chase.
What is lost is lost.

There is no time to be retained.
What is lost is lost.

There is no gaining back what's gone.
What is lost is lost.

I only keep the memories
that have been embossed.


My body's stitched together with this chaos.
This poem inspired by the words of Honest Musings:
"When we hold people close, we also carry their past and everyone they have loved. Their stitches are ours, and every time they open: we sew them up. Every time their memories bleed, we soak the blood with our being.
Like forgotten toys, people stay in the rusty corners of our mind until one day something reminds us of them again. With a terrifying quietness, a sense of nostalgia pierces through everything we have ever been. I wish more of us knew how to be good at forgetting."

Lost Soul
I'm crying for help but silence is what they see
Smiling but the wounds are too deep
Do you see the pain?
Everyone's shoulder... but where's his?
They say he's such a nice kid
Give him an Oscar he earned it
He's putting on a grade A performance
Playing the role but never playing himself
It's a cold world when you're in it by yourself
My lover loves rock and roll
She says it's got meaning and soul
I, on the other hand love rap
My lover thinks it's absolute crap
We often fight about this
But i love these fights... 'coz they usually end up in a kiss
They have cut down a lot of trees near my house
Not only have they robbed me of my view of the greens
They've also robbed the birds of their home
I don't see them no more
And neither can i hear their songs
I've lost something i used to look forward to everyday
Oh!!...how my soul aches!!!
You say if i get involved with you
I'll be ruined
Well...let me tell you something
I'm ruined from before
You can't ruin me any further
And honestly we're both doomed anyways..
...victims of the apocalypse named 'love'
Broken and damaged beyond repair
We both have nothing to lose
So let's walk on the path of destruction together
I've lived in isolation for a long time now
I'd rather have some company during my final moment of destruction
An early morning rise, mainly clear blue skies with the odd patches of white here and there,nice sunshine and a morning dose of Benedict Cumberbatch as 'Doctor Strange' ...I must say it was a pretty good start to the day...I also must admit i'm not usually a morning person but there are certain joys attached to waking up early...the best one being just taking in all the peace and calm around you and channelizing all that positive energy into the very depths of your soul...highly rejuvenating stuff.The beauty of Nature in the wee hours of the morning is simply magical...the freshness of the air, the song sung by the birds and the sound of dewdrops falling from the leaves....it just seduces every bit of you...and to top it all off Benedict Cumberbatch arousing all of my senses!!!
An achievement in your life, no matter how small is still nevertheless an achievement...be proud of it and respect it, irrespective of whatever people might say or think about it.
I just started
No I am not done yet
I  am not tired
Just give me time
It pains me but I can I do it
