The tether faded fast.
The ***** in the chain becoming more distant to each other.
Two hands unravelling.

As the tether faded, the grief and sorrow grew, seeding itself.
An oak tree affirming its roots.
A cry of dismay in a blink.

With the tether gone, both oak trees became familiar with each other’s soil.
The tether a forgotten memory.
An ancient picture screen.

A brief wind of past occasionally shook through the trees.
A faded disconnection caught in the breeze.
Two lives

you say you don't want to be in a relationship
but you ask for me to **** around with you
"i'm not ready" "my heart still hurts"
Those are lies and me and you both know.
I sit here and still believe you and take your word
cuz you've "changed"
Me and you both know you haven't
I watched the way you slipped your hand down
my skirt.
You smile. That's how I know you haven't changed.
but I still believed that you have changed.

We started confused
Blank, Pained and Unsure

We have our own excuse
To Live,  To Ask,  To Love

On that Bell Tower ledge we met; Same thoughts...
To Fall, To End, To Let go

I dragged you away
Showed you the real way
Helped you come back again
And Kept you from pain

We wandered all the Bright Places
The Mountains...
The Churches...
The River...
The Lake...

Even the Blue Hole where we date

As time passes by I healed you from sore
And my Feelings grew more
So as the pain, the ache
And the uncertainties we break

We both fell from with in
And you tried to keep me out of the pain
Yet It was as heavy as sin
That I can't bear to feel

You held on
But I let go
You did not know
That I ended so

I know It'll cause you Pain
And I may never be seen
But my heart, my soul and my memory of you
Will forever be and always be
with you.

You are brave, please believe...
This is inspired by the book 'All The Bright Places' by Jennifer Niven. I consider it as my all time favorite book. The story is painful, lovely and real. A-must-read book.

This poem is based on Finch's Point of View (Finch is the lead male character of the story)

Why are things so complicated..?
even the simple question that life asks -Are you happy?
Why cannot we be ourselves..?
even when we question our-self -Do we need this?
Why cannot we forget things..?
even when we don't want to recall.

Complications..
From coming in the world to giving a world to someone
to leaving the world from everyone..
Why are things so complicated.

To smile without a reason,
To change without a season.
To love someone,
to leave someone.
Even to make love to someone.

Complications.!

I am happy  but you changed that into tears.

I felt important but you changed that into doubts.

I felt i deserve your love but you changed it into doubts.

I am in love with you but you changed that in making me unworthy.

You changed everything i thought i was.

You changed me like i am the nightmare of your life
But..
I changed you like you are in the happiest place you can ever be.

I thought i was better when i am with you but i was being my best without you.

t'was when tears stung my eyes like the harsh wind outside
that i knew she was just a passerby;
a leaf from the tree so worriedly looking in at me
blown and lifted away.

t'was within the pages of my favorite book
that i fought my worst war;
my memories of her were rekindling to an inferno
but fading with the words on the paper.

t'was her, always her,
that saved me.
t'was her name for me,
"moquino,"
that i want on my headstone
just as,
"sofia,"
was printed on hers.

t'was her, always her,
that took a part of me
when she left,
for t'was her and only her
that was me.
If anyone is confused as to what this one's about, it's about how I changed myself so much that I forgot how to change back. I regret it deeply.

Keys are carried around by you
on a chain
you made from the arteries of my heart.

Too bad the keys
don't fit the
lock anymore.

I changed it.

अब खतों के जल्द जवाब नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
पता या लोग?

अब दरिया में वो सैलाब नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
बहाव या ग़हराव?

अब रातों में वो ख्वाब नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
लगाव या तनाव?

अब खैरियत के तलबदार नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
झुकाव या चुनाव?

चाँद से वो ज्वार नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
आफ़ताब या खिंचाव?

अब इस घर में किरायेदार नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
हिसाब या रखरखाब?
