He ascended in the blink of an eye!!
In the cold winter dawn!!, where the sunshine was missing!!
The dawn of his death was dark cold dawn!!
The tempers lost in the mouth of the dying day,
The roads were deserted, the city turned muted !!
The citizens were glued to the TV screens waiting and praying with a slight belief in their hearts repeating he is alive!!!!
He disappeared in the blink of an eye!!
Between the melancholic announcement and the rumors !!
We were all drowning in the sea of tears.
And with thousands of raindrops, we prayed to the Almighty Allah to let his soul rest in peace and grant him to the highest place in heaven....

Briscoe
There was one,
Infinite and singular.
Who split in two.
One was the mother.
One was the son.
One was the father
One was the daughter too.
One pulls strings from the null
And played a tune
So one would sleep,
Dreaming of the song,
Of stars across the dark sky,
And a thousand sparkling eye
To see them through.
"He cannot be established, he is not made. He himself is the Supreme Being."
-Guru Granth Sahib Japu 5–9
(Translation by Earnest Trumpp)
Let me hold you,
On the reigns of tides,
Very much into my heart,
Eternally on the shores of life!

Lost smiles may fizzle,
On the eve of every drizzle.
Vanishing in thin air,
Enormous clouds of despair.

Looming are some fading stars,
Over you and me in the  yarns,
Vending out the fiber of fellings,
Every beat keeps closer weavings.

tryhard
my biggest fantasies involve
playing magician and assistant
make myself disappear into thin air
without an onlooking audience
to wonder why or how
explanations withheld
run off to nowhere
only to realize
nobody is chasing me
and the only thing
i am running away from
is myself
wanted to call this "drapetomania" but felt like it could be insensitive, so for now it's "untitled #3" until i find a more suitable title (edit: finally changed the title!)

AmIEnough
I am drunk on depression
And high on helplessness
Maybe one more bad decision
Will cure my restlessness
