Break Up
 Sep 2014 jess
Abhijit
All I always wanted, was to be by your side,
No matter how rough the day, how stormy the ride,
All I always wanted, was to come home to you.
I never thought that we'd drift apart, the way we did
I never thought you say the things, the things that you said.
For all the times we spent, the good and the bad,
I thought I deserved a better goodbye, than the one I had.

I never said it was going to be easy
To grow into the relationship while we were busy,
I always said that it would take time
But that, in the end, it would end up just fine.
You had different plans, and I didn't feature in them
Normally, I'd understand, but then, you never tried enough
And took the easiest way out, the minute the going got rough!

regardless of the cheating
lies
betrayal
and pain
it's like everywhere i go i see your name

i know we are the perfect couple
i know we are meant to be
i know you are the girl for my life
as i read these prays i pray that you become my wife

right now i'm sad because this separation is just killing me
it's killing you even worse
cause i know you love me
bus as a girl i know you wanna party
have fun
and have ***

those the main reasons why you don't answer my texts
a lot of people told me i can do better
at first i didn't listen now i think it's true
cause there's someone out here who is need of a man
a man who'll be there love them
care for them support them
and where ever that one special girl is
i just want you to know that i'll find you one day
and when that day comes
just know that the rest our life's will be a happy ending
as long as a long happiness forever
so my girlfriend left me today and i feel bad but good to cause i know God has something better for me
Sometimes I wonder
If love will find me again
I fell hopelessly in love with you
but I'm not quite sure if I ever got over you
if I did, then how could I possibly fall in love
with anyone else but you?

there are times i think
people could never be so incredibly
selfish,
but then i remember
how you left a mark
in every portion of my heart
so with each beat
i would be reminded of
everything we had,
everything we could've had.

my universe,
you consumed me like
a vortex.

I haven’t thought of you in so long.
You disappeared from the words that escape the ink I splattered on my pages.
It felt like a millennium had passed when I finally moved on,
And when my thoughts were rid of you.
Yet it only took 2 seconds for my past with you to take hold of my mind again.
You were everything to me before.
One memory appeared in my mind,
Then another.
Then the sinking feeling in my stomach hit.
Finally, tears began streaming down my pale, corpse like cheeks.
It feels like my envisionment of you is so real,
And you’re so close that I can almost touch you.
The sensation of my heart being squeezed; drained of blood, is too much to handle.
For I thought i’d never repeat this process of withdrawal from love.
But yet again,
I have been deceived.
No matter how much time passes,
Even when I think I’ve moved on from you,
And when your face hasn’t appeared in my mind or your voice in my ears,
I still haven’t.
And that reality,
Will never change.
And if love is that one thing
making life worth living
I now understand why Buddha said
that life is an affliction

because if everything must come to an end - love too, the pain would be endless. Because love has various endings, all painful in their own way.

They say only in infinity
do two parallels meet,
but in this house at 6 pm
every weeknight when we eat

the finite get a touch of love
as food is more than just prepared,
when you cook it with the thought of us
it’s more than taste that shows you care.

Through acts alone you give us life
beyond what’s seen upon the surface,
despite the cause of any strife
you give us all a purpose.

Forever to you we owe a debt
to be paid in love and life beget.

Upon the Stars
 May 2014 jess
Tryst
If all the stars were made of paper, bright
And shining with a clean unwritten glow;
An endless ream of shimmering white delight,
Awaiting for a writers hand to flow.
If space was but an inky void, so dark
And gleaming with a glossy coated hue;
An endless pool of glimmering black, so stark
And unused, waiting for its first debut.
If I should take a quill unto the ink,
And write my words on each and every star,
To cover each with all the ways I think,
To tell the world how beautiful you are --
        When every star was blackened with my verse,
        I'd seek to find another universe

Labor of love is not labor I thought
And so I climbed the rungs with ideals high
Off’ring myself as like a lamb resigned
To noble fate all shorn and naked brought
But I can’t as a martyr play this lot
Once it’s been seen as futile and decried
There is but nothing left, an empty hide
Where once a mighty steed stood here and fought
And yet a hope persists marking the war
To set out fresh and force the battle turn
New starts await where there are brighter aims
That don’t require such blood and sweat be poured
Perhaps one day again the heart will yearn
For a reward beyond these lonely games
