Madness

Never
apologize
for feeling too
recklessly,

the greatest lessons
are
always
learned
through

Madness

I am in love with being alone
And oh! how wonderful it is to explore how unlonely you can be on your own,

But there is a mighty difference,
One that we all face,
When loneliness hits us at the wrong time and place,

My heart sinks and I can’t breathe,
Memories come rushing back to me
So much on my mind,
Who am I
Where do I belong,
The future is all I think of
Everything seems so wrong

I keep my head up
I tell myself to breathe,
You can do it just be strong,

I am okay again,
But I fear for these days,

When solitude is what I crave,
But loneliness takes its place.

Dear Nana,

I miss you
I miss waking up to your voice
I miss making you tea
I miss our late night desserts
I miss your comfort and words
I miss your love stories and hugs
I miss your worries and calls
I miss combing your hair
I miss your warmth, love and care
I
miss
you

Never skirt the truth
If I had not learnt from the past
This feeling would not have come to me so fast
I contemplate desires as my anxiety kicks in
The night seems lonely
How do I cope within
Almost imperceptible but so evident
Never skirt the truth
Eventually it becomes an impediment
You deserve something real
Something luminescent someone who makes you feel incandescent
Never skirt the truth
I can feel it in my bones
My intuition is what keeps me grown
I am not a fool to the unknown

She pulled the flower sharply from where it blossomed.

I’ve never wanted to curl up into a ball of sadness for taking away something so precious.

We talk about saving the earth of it’s living beings yet here we are tearing away at its life without any hard feelings.

Wishing to forget and never planning something through cold sweat.

But all she wanted was to be healed as much as the earth wanted to be saved from any regret

I can’t breathe
You kiss me good bye and I whisper
I love you
You hug me tight & I close my eyes
Tears stroll down my face
As I wake
It aches me to know you aren’t there.
I knew this day would come
I didn’t want it to end
Please don’t leave
Farewell my lover & friend.

I dreamt of you lastnight

It was one of those dreams you know?

The ones you never want to wake up from

My Heart has a mind of its own
Always ignoring my head
and every chance of pain
When it decides to feel again
it revives every emotion within me
It’s like a prison but a prison
that I choose to be in

- The heart wins every time.

Pain can be Pleasant
Pain can be satisfying
The way it prepares us for the worst
and best times of our lives

It sharpens our knowledge
opens our minds
Exposes our feelings of fear
While teaching us to be fearless

strengthens our hearts
Awakens our soul
teaches us to be whole

you can't fix pain
But you can control the way pain fixes you

the only thing that is more quintessential than pain is the joy it brings you when you overcome it

I wish time would fly
a little faster

To a time
when my heart is pain free
and
my mind
doesn't think of

you.

Feel
You can't hoard feelings forever

You can either choose
to let them escape
or
continue to leave them screaming within you
There is always breaking point

Don't ruin your sanity
Be brave enough to open up

You may not be with someone
But at this moment in time
You suddenly you realise that at one point you were
and that in itself is a testament

although it didn’t last indefinitely
they were there
and they cared!
and you cared genuinely!

just knowing that
that someone at one point in time
felt something a little close to love for me
well that
that fills me up immensely.
