Remember those nights

when i handed my heart to you
I will cry, it was almost like a ritual
a mother sending her daughter far away
knowing she might be in a better place
of security/happiness with,
the possibilities of isolation/ loneliness,
never returning to its own belonging
because after all, daughters are for departures

That was how i felt every single time

I bow down on my knees and held your hands
feeling the creases on your palms,
taking pauses in between the choking,
asking you to not break this very soul
it was a silent plea, i wished you listened
my heart was not an entity, it was a privilege
to loving you, the whole of you
that you never saw and never will -

You have not just broke my heart,
you broke my entire, the entire soul

and it was me, screaming.

I could die for you
but yet, you cant even
hold on.

Now the coast has lined up
they are in coherent,
splashing the same waves
and washing on the same bed

You are still there, watching them
engaging with the moon
nothing much have changed
but yet, everything did

My hair grew inches, with fervent curls
wrinkles on my face, surfacing
my heart, like your sweater - more worn
resembling that girl you loved,
that summer

You must have slightly aged too,
the face I grown distanced to

As we lay our bodies
beneath our knees,
we see those stretch marks across
you were still perfect

We hear the crashing,
it has come for us.

I was talking to a Friend

It was with you
I had weaved my cells
relentlessly, with

58 trillion cells
with 52 trillion cells
how would that look like?

We shed 600,000 particles
of skin every hour,
so how much had I shared,
shedding this skin with you
All these years?

We left beauty
across the world,
approximately 28 cities

Are those dust
Catching up with me now,
Why does my eyes
Keep swelling.

We have walked
countless steps
across barren land,
vast sea, on
abandoned rocks,
our feet bounded
for each other

I am trying
so hard to find
my steps now
that you're gone
I have gave you
an invaluable piece
of me, thus
I do not even know
where do I start
because there was no end -

I woke up this morning
knowing you are leaving
why does my heart, ache?
that I have to drink into the night
was I seeing your face?
there's this portrait
in my mind every time
you turn around, your face
your nose, your lips and your eyes,

I was seeing, perfection
how could you be so perfect,
in all that I see?

We are diverging
along this straight path
We have split them into two
separate land, sea and rocks
We both, took our first steps -

I will gain acceptance
that We no longer
grow with each other
as somehow,
We have left each other behind

I wish you a safe journey,
may you meet incredible
events, joy and love
the world is round,
so will be our, love,

My love.
