yesterday in milkyway
imnthea May 2017
yesterday in milky way
i heard giants used to be in this world  
how enormous creature they were
even with their beastly claw
how they have fallen
yesterday in milky way
things were different and tall
now all we hear is legend
if so mighty can not be here at all
i wonder if we'll be just another legend
them digging our bones and documenting
In log  " yesterday in milky way"

does it ever end?
imnthea Apr 2017
when you try harder and its not enough
just stop trying and do it!

when you are not even trying
and  way passed the deadline
only questions remains
what am i doing?
why?
only if i had at least one answer
answer to why i feel this choke?
and my tears just ready to flow
why this reluctance ?
why can't i point out what is it
and after all that questions without answer
what now?
what i think i should do?
why can't i move?
which excuse is it this time?
that's holding me here.
why am i arrested within?
why i feel like i am devouring my own tail?
yet the circle remains the same
and if this is true, why can't i stop?
why this choke is not enough ?
why it keeps suffocating and not just end it?
why can't i just even try to stop?
what do i need to stop?
why my question only have vague answer?
and why every unsure answer have another question?
why that question leads to more questions?
does it ever end?

challenged promise
imnthea Mar 2017
on my second lazy morning when i heard noise again
i knew i woke up too late
there was this pair of bird planning nest in my basin
today only he came back or is it she?
skilled mason, lets assume it is he
its not the first time though
they came yesterday too
i threw off all the twigs and threads
letting them know its my place, clear message
despite that i might add
he seems very persistent
must have promised his lover,a nest in this particular place
if its a challenge given to him
he'll fail this scheme.
alas! he'll never hatch an egg
despite of his toil, collecting shining reel, slender sticks and
nutmegs?

not today
imnthea Apr 2017
someday i'll say:
"how calm and soothing that light, reflecting on your skin"
i'll sing of moonlight and praise the sun
but not today.
i'll tell tale of fair maiden in trouble and how she was saved
just not today.
i'll fight a glorious fight and victory'll be just another tide
its just not that day
not today.

today i just want to indulge myself and think of happy thought.
**** first, drink a beverage with my favorite meal and jolt down few more ******* in a page without having to change my pajama.

FAR IN
imnthea Apr 2017
we may see her but she is not present here

she was comfortable to go and see
now she prefers to
world where she doesn't exist
she peeps through and through
almost loosing herself here
no anchor has a strength
to pull her this side
she leaned to feel
life without vile

that world has succeeded to beguile
now she has walked too far in
she can't reckon if she is two steps in
or by miles.

buried under
imnthea Apr 2017
this feeling won't go away
like my lungs may collapse any moment
awake from chilling terrible dream with no remembrance
these constant silence and sudden scream
my surrounding is load, deafening me
i panic sometimes thinking if this is my whole life
but now i am horrified
i begin to see
pattern
whole world is moving round
unable to get around
placed in this slow moving infinity
this knowledge haunts my mortal core
and if i am to ever feel nothing dreadful
my wish shall be buried under the tombstone
even before my time comes to sleep there
i shall tell them i stopped living without them anyway

he sat alone by the stone
which read his beloved's name
he looks around and analyse
"it is black and white day today"
and in grief he raised his palm
nothing but a snow flakes
that lands, white as a sand.
It weeps into teardrops
along with him..

across green lake
imnthea Mar 2017
year slipping day by day
nothing new happening today.
yet another winter has passed
melancholy days gone at last.

lets see new bloom
swim across green lake
for these are moments no one can take.

lets reach beyond that last shadow hill
see if the lake is silent or just still.

we'll make it back before next winter comes
and we'll find out what we have become.
imnthea Apr 2017
i know who you are  
a day dreamer like me
hoping, longing for better
anxiously searching for pleasant unknown
that dream to call your own
nonetheless, your soul feels shaggy
that goal you had is now a fleck
yet
you hold on
you might let go of all but your dream
that dream where nothing is confined
still holds glimmer of your  light
so
shield it from next gale of  critic disapprove
because you know gentle breeze will follow
that glimmer will spark and glow
breathe one more day and see
it was not just a dream at all
but cremated shards of reality.

snow and storm
imnthea Mar 2017
i heard snow doesn't snow anymore back home
even if it does
it doesn't stay for long anymore .

i almost got buried in that winter coat
when warmth of my rushing blood flooded within my vessels
i knew i doesn't just wanted to breathe and survive
i wanted to feel alive
breathe wild air  from ocean
to point in a direction
away from storm
and just
sail.

hear your demon
imnthea Apr 2017
sometimes i hear you without listening
when i listen, your voice doesn't single out
and just for a moment when it does
you provoke me to  madness
letting me believe that i am walking in circle
i feel the urge to slay dragon in the midst

we  ­are  bound  to  be  here

either or both
imnthea Apr 2017
ITS EITHER :

i am a self centered *****
or they are too good at pitch

i am going crazy in this sinking ship
or they are seemingly decent lunatics

i am unable to convey whatever i say
or they lack comprehension , message delay.

ITS EITHER SOLO TIPTOE OR PUBLIC TALK SHOW
CAN'T BE BOTH, IS IT THOUGH?

PERHAPS,
IT COULD BE EITHER OR BOTH
PREVIOUS IS SOMETHING  I  LOATHE
BUT LATTER NEGATE POSSIBLE OUTGROWTH.

so i glued myself dreading the worst
with unwilling nerve to scratch the crust
this mystery could be blessing or curse.

this constant feeling of  inevitable doom
consumes me but they know, i assume.

so here i am
In this pickled fiasco staying afloat.
with toneless stern face they gloat.

they talk tall and taller
i feel small and smaller.

ok to be lying down
without a sound
cause it seems you are at peace.
so what if your breath ceased
it happened to you
and it'll happen to me
so when i go
i want my lover to know
its ok my love
my spirit is at ease
do grieve
but never cease

WHEN THE DAY COMES
imnthea Feb 2017
One day, when the day comes
i'll prove you have nothing to worry about
that i am all yours.
One day, when the day comes
i'll take that leap through stars
and put it into beautiful rhyme
how i always liked it.
One day, when the day comes
i'll do all the things kept on hold
then i shall feel complete and whole
and
That one day, i won't have to think
about the list of things i haven't done.
Or i might even feel nothing
because sometimes what i wanted
is not even clear to me.
Everyday i talk to myself
what do i wish to accomplish
one day?
The remark is always fuzzy.
Only thing certain is that
ONE DAY my day'll come
and i haven't a faintest idea
how its going to play out.

Sometimes i feel
imnthea Oct 2017
Sometimes I feel so old
Like I have been here forever
Seeing same things happening over and over

And

Sometimes I feel like I am so young
Like I have all the time to figure out what's what
Discovering new things everyday

But

Sometimes, I feel exactly 28yrs old and I know that i know not enough to decide but it is still necessary to comment and have half boiled opinion.

searching for funny rhyme, he couldn't stay still
rambling with words,  trying to get a humorous feel.

some he gets it right, rest without insight
funny dreams, he tries to dream every night.

consume with vigor zeal, craving for goofy comic unseen
edgy, restless, vexed ,away from blissful sleep and yet so keen.

rumination of vagabond
imnthea Jun 2017
so i have been distracted from reality of death again
now i hope finding my way among all adding few years more
how perilous and sad you say i sound
i am but a great admirer of life
mourning of its inevitable end
then i finally understand
and came to appreciate of death too
i realize we need life to feel that too
and to really know death is every bodies' doom
we have no choice but to rejoice of this finite gift
and see to it that we lived it all and lived it well

no i don't  prefer  to  be  alone

yes i feel ridiculed by my odd deeds
but i was just being honest to myself

It's not rage
You see in my face
I got tired of your pointed finger
Giving shape to my character
Forget that! I am not even much bother about that
But that rituals we had was cuffing me to the cage
Never been the free spirit but I always loathed
Not being able to choose my fate
So I talk silly and walk funny
But never did what was told
I just got good in pretending
My act always condescending

wanting it all
imnthea May 2017
i never want to see blue
blue sky
i never want to feel warm
warm sun
but i looked up to moon many many times
i think i like it
but mostly the other side beseech me
gives me some familiar vibes
reflecting dark and lonely tone
it sicken me how recognizable it could be
if only i could see that dark side
i don't want to feel it
what it has to offer is not hope
and i have been thinking...
i think i want to feel hope
some good voodoo spell
i remember wanting to feel air
fresh from the hill on to my face
i think i am starting to want it again
wanting it all
that stupid decor was ok
i have to admit it wasn't bad at all
i want it all
i think moon looks just ok the way they are

they don't know at all
imnthea Apr 2017
who says resting doesn't hurt?
it slows every muscle, bone
deprive you of  every passion, eventually
your *** gets glued to comfortable sheet
and gradually begin to shrink in it
to the point that it numbs and ache
then you feel this pain
not physical but tortuously insane
you begin to think about the time
when  you wanted more
more for your soul with the hint of vanity.

who says sharing doesn't hurt?
it fully controls the tone of your voice
that moment of everything moving so slow
while the beats in your chest thud so loud
rarely that deed doesn't feel like blow
and once in a while when it just fits right
you value the existence of another being
you think of a time when
you were exclusive to yourself
how silly that notion
remaining secluded, just painting your wall.


who says its easy to advise?
well!  its not, to recollect your encounter
peeking inside and contributing insight
to recommend the best while knowing
no individual is that sincere
you think of a time when you walk tall
without  any idea of perception
with ignorant head.

whoever says whatever they say
when i contemplate those says
i would say, they were quoting others
they might have got reciting all right
but they don't know at all.

lover's lovely love words hold such feeling
how appealing it sounds

only way is to let it in or let go

RUSH
imnthea Jun 2017
this gush of rush moving so slow, its almost stagnant
holding mania  within so firmly that it resembles sadness
patching up all the leaks but still couldn't stop some drops
its dragging me all over the places i have been avoiding
i am utterly far outside my zone, chill running down my bone
even distractions are now questioning "you ok? whats with your tone?"
no! leave me be, don't judge or care for me, i'll be fine
i just need some time alone with me
imnthea May 2017
arrested was she, in her virtual magical screen
sun and moon replacing each other but she never bother
so tedious same boring day, she thinks, lost in her caffeine
when most interesting thing is ants carrying your sugar
help that pathetic soul to realize her goal

shake her mind from that madness she finds it divine
pull her up from that red juice called wine
show her there is better way to dine
there must be something fine where she can shine.

HERE
imnthea Feb 2017
so here where it led me
after this long time
after this long tardy travel
i can't say if i like it here
or maybe i am beginning to like it
or is it the habit settling in
i have always dreaded of being
rooted in one place and yet somewhere
in my heart i longed for it too
so here where it led me
here i am
i am scared and fearful
this is what i knew would happen
this is what i wanted to avoid
on second thought,i am not
published story but
manuscript in the process
it may fail to be successful one
but i can turn it how i want it
and that thought is enough
to keep me going,
keep going on and be part of
that sketch of lady disappearing  in dark
or is it emerging into light?
i wont know which part will i be
of that shaded sketch of lady
in black and white.
but here i am and i don't have to stop...

Its been one of those days
when i feel like
THIS IS IT
with all those cheering and
words of encouragement.
I cannot seem to break
this feeling of numbness
addiction of staying arrested
arrested by this blunt feeling.
It doesn't give an instant dead
but slowly graze upon my soul
till i feel nothing at all
that numbness
is my final resort
which tells me
THIS IS IT
your ultimate wake up call!

i know my next step
it is right there, as clear as sky
yet i can't seem to move any further
i am hacked
unable to tell
i am not me anymore
somewhere inside
buried in the mess of thoughts
i know i have to escape
take charge of my shell
may be my courage is lost too
in the same puddle
where i kept myself safe
long before when i knew
i am the only one who can rescue me
so i did what i could
i managed to isolate me from myself
and this is as far as i could get
i have been keeping this innocent delusion
that i am fine
no more i wish to entertain this silly idea
NOW

until maybe one day we won't be able to differentiate

i am lost in wonderland, wondering if i ever come out of it.
Its all sand and stories here, unreal world, unreal people,
even stories fails to mimic reality.
swimming is dream here; a glass of water, life and dewdrops, quenching thirst most.
here, i don't wish to stay; here, i don't see myself unpacking.
i need to leave now, i would rather have a nightmare then be part of this mind numbing place.
let me borrow a wing just to fly away from here, let me slap myself to wake up from  here.
