He stares into space
And wonders aloud:

"Why does that clown
Follow me around?"

His teacher glares at him
A glare so fierce it burns
He wishes he'd stayed in bed
Her ugly face turns red

The boy screams again
The clown forever dead
You know what?

I **** at math, I **** at breathing
In my head, everyone's screaming
I can't stop the pain when I walk
Can't stop the fear when I talk

I regret I even exist
I'm sorry for being like this
But I'm afraid and I'm scared
No surprise
no one cares.
We often don't see what's in front of us,
our lover's kindled heart

We're too careless and ignorant,
it's tearing love apart
This isn't a letter about how I died committing suicide by a gunshot against my head. Or how depressed I am in need of professional help. It's about how I already died without my body being six feet underground. You see, my body was different than anyone else's. I couldn't love because once upon a time I loved too hard and ended up alone. I trusted someone too much and ended up being touched. I took words to the heart and ended up killing myself without actually dying.
This mysterious and uncanny silence,
The atrocities and sufferings
Children watching with innocence
Leaving all their childhood activities.
Steps are following with a terror,
With a clear  inspection
Police force with their lined cannon
People,  suffering, far beyond my expectations .
In their homes with a thunderstruck,
They know that their children will ask What is going on?
And they will tell as they hug tight
Don't worry, It'll  be over soon
Their hearts will be in a great plight
In the search of the infant caterpillars in the monsoon
In such a delicate and charming childhood..

Surbhi Dadhich..
No two minds
Think exactly alike,
Our perceptions
Are always going to be different,

We see the world
Through our own eyes,
The outcome of our experiences
Choose what is significant.

No two hearts weigh the same,
Our pasts make all of the difference,

Whether we are light-hearted
Or heavy-hearted,
Being whole-hearted,
Rather than being broken-hearted,
Is always going to be our first preference.

I don't need stars from the night-sky,
I don't need the moon,

I don't need any sunshine in my pocket,
All I need is you--my auspicious, priceless fortune.

I don't need precious diamonds that sparkle,
I don't need 24-carat gold,

I don't need luxury and extravagance,
All I need is your hand, to forever hold.

I don't need material belongings,
I don't need anything that money can buy,

I don't need cash in my wallet,
All I need is your unconditional love, forever - not a single day shy.

This is all I ever wanted,
This is all I'll ever need,

To be the undying love of your life, infinitely,
This is what I desire,
This is what I need from life,
to succeed.

She is more
than what meets the eye,

She is a pending rainbow
that's hiding behind the clouds
in the sky.

She is a warm pocket
in a cold, deep ocean,

She is a virtual art form,
She is poetry in motion.

She is thunder and lightning
in a perfect blue horizon,

She is a delicate wildflower
growing in a plush green field,
one that is mesmerising.

She is an unexpected smile
on a lonely day,

She is instant relief
when things aren't going
your way.

She is a suprising hint of sweetness
when you are expecting
something sour,

She is a timeless friend,
She is an immortal flower.

She is more
than what meets the eye,

She is a breath of fresh mountain air, causing one to exhale a relieving sigh.

She is full of substance,
empathy, wisdom and kindness,

She contains infinite layers
of universes beneath her skin,
all of which are unrecognisable
to the naked eyes that suffer from "metaphorical" blindness.

Dedicated to my daughter, Amanda. F ***
Blindfolded,
I can identify  
The rhythm
Of his beating heart,

It beats in-tune with mine,
A perfect duet,
Just like it did
From the very start.

Blindfolded,
I can identify  
His chest,
The chest that encapsulates
My heart,

His contour,
The unique scent of his skin,
Every pore that makes him "Him!"
~ A handsome, ineffable masterpiece;
My priceless statue
Of fine art.

By Lady R.F. (C)2017
I build a new
Unclimbable wall,

Whenever I am afraid
That I am going to fall.

All of the bricks,
In which I lay,

Keep me another
Safe, step away...

From landing into
The darkness,

The emptiness,
The loneliness.

The silence,
And its extremely
Unbearable loudness,

The painfully, harsh
Numb feeling
Of nothingness.

For, I
Have been to this place
Too many times before,

And I am not intentionally reckless;
Hence, I construct every new wall
Without a window
Or a door.
