Torn Apart
Sahil Sep 2019
My wings were clipped the day I was born
I was put under the pressure of a billion eyes
My dreams ripped my skies torn
My life was built on a faithful lie

The shadows of my imagination
feared the glare of their expectations
My broken bones, My shattered heart
Sang the stories of me being torn apart

Happiness
Sahil Dec 2019
In the pursuit of happiness
I found you,  but somewhere I lost me
You set my heart on fire
You set my dreams free
I loved our little chatter
I loved your every little thing
But now that I look back
It all just leaves a sting

I never realized when you drifted apart
I still kept holding onto the string
You crushed my little heart
And all I could do was sing

Sang the songs of my pain  
Sang the songs of my screams
I never knew it was all in vain
It was all just a broken dream
Thank you all for the response on this, I’ve stopped writing since a while back but the response on this made me wanna pick up the pen back again!!! Thank you everyone for the reigniting the love ai had for this art!

Splee
Sahil Oct 2021
I smile again through all of it,
sipping dreams one at a time
through the pain and the broken bits!
believing that it's my time to shine!

Your shadow still lurks behind it all
but brighter the sun still shines
You were the reason for it all
but now you only exist in these petty lines

thankful for the gift,
I found a new me
Apart we sure did drift
but confident I still splee
splee is slang for joyful squeal

The Ivory skies
Sahil Oct 2021
I'm over you now!
though the thought of you still lingers
was it the lips or the smile or the touch of your fingers?
Am I too slow or is the world so cold
First, they sympathize, now they scold
Was it the lips or the smile or the alluring lies?
That doomed me staring into the ivory skies.

The pens still sway to you, and the inks' still flows
it rips me apart and my heart it mows.
yet they swing back to your alluring glow.
Was it the laugh or the gaze of those honeydew eyes
That doomed me staring into the ivory skies.
Ivory skies(past)

When!
Sahil May 2022
When the spirals collide
and dust settles in
When the spheres deform
and are reborn again

When the moon shines not
and the tides rest
When the Sun devours life
and we've done our best

When the cycle starts again
past a few Bilennia
When life takes it's first breath
let's meet again
Bilennia = a few billion years

Cravings
Sahil Jan 2021
The solitary stars shine again
reminiscing the elysian amity
The petty cravings begin
with wishful uncertainty

Time does mend the wounds of past
uncertainty scrapes the scabs
Till dawn will it last
trips to the herbs begin

Sanity seeps out of the crooked corners
Leaving behind a hollow me
Melancholic madness seems warmer
Alluring gelid me!

All for nothing
Sahil Dec 2019
I took faith in you lies
I tried to pursue your dreams
I tried to smile
But what came out were only screams

You told me to understand
But you never understood me
I tried to take a stand
I even tried to flee

But it was all for nothing

The Coast
Sahil Sep 2019
Funny for a guy whose name means "The coast"
I cannot seem to find a place to dock my feelings

Twisted ends
Sahil May 2022
Smiles sink in the skies
Skinning me through
Dreams slip by
with the winter dew

Past fades in
Dawn stands afar
can't see a win
in this self waged war

What do I stand by?
Who should I stand with?
Me who's trying to protect me
or
Me who's trying to win you?

My Regrets
Sahil Sep 2019
I didn't regret letting you go,
I  regret  letting you in, in the first place!
and you as a whole are the most
beautiful regret,
that now defines my existence
To the one I loved the most

Let me sink
Sahil Dec 2019
Let me sink like the fallen Dove
Let me sink in the ocean of your love
Let me sink in those deep brown eyes
Let me sink in those beautiful skies
Let me sink in those light pink lips
Let me play with your fingertips

Unhealthy Cravings
Sahil Oct 2021
The warmth of your touch and the cold breeze of the winter night
Unhealthy cravings
Only, breeze shows up in a while but you don't,
Thank you!

The Promised Goodbye
Sahil Feb 2020
The time has come,
Now we soar our own skies.
This is our last promised goodbye.

To the promised neverland now we go
will we meet again?  You never know.
Time which once harmonized our memories,
Has now become the master median.
Making fun of our emotions,
What a ****** comedian.

We part our ways, leaving us behind.
But our memories will always linger in my mind.
Farewell my friend for this is the end,
Of our friendship which once was a trend.

In the end I'll say one more thing
That my tears aren't petty, in harmony they sing.
Sing the songs of our conquered skies.
But now it's time for the promised goodbye.

The Night skies
Sahil Feb 2021
Harboring the symphonic sadness
Upon befell the night skies
Fabricating melancholic madness
Bearing ghe tales of the broken ties

The gloomy hourglass didn't skip sand
Lingering on the alluring lies
Draining contentment from these frolic hands
Upon befell the night skies

Bearing grace, anguish it spreads
Singing the tales of the broken ties
Bearing the echos of the past I dread
Upon befell the night skies!

Skipped Beats
Sahil Jan 2020
Those big brown eyes
Those sweet little lies
They all lead me to
Those love filled skies

Those little pink lips
Those soft finger tips
Caress the beats
That my heart just skips

Those cute cheezy lines
Makes my heart bright shine
The beats that it skips
Find their home
On your fingertips

Midnight melodies
Sahil May 2022
Words unsaid, slipped embrace
Sacred scent, lost grace
Masked by Midnight melodies

Deafening silences, dried tears
blinding lights, suffocating prayers
Masked by Midnight Melodies

What remains bare is this melancholic madness,
The self doubt, insecurities, memories and me

— The End —
