Restless is the pulse
Shaking in my ears
It’s only been three months but It feels like it’s been years
Confused is the air
Caught in my lungs
I scream that I’m riding the highs and the low
but It hurts so deep; I’ve got nothing to show
He said, “But you embrace the fear.”
Echo, their laughs do
Crippling are these fleeting thoughts of you
Am I truly tired of being lost?
Or am I the boy who cries wolf?

A daily riddle
Has come to mind
Where abstract words
Break an abstract mind
And things once healed
Fall apart
After the moon hits that mark
Thoughts are runny
Dilapidated ears hear harsh lullabies
But no baby cries
Just you and I
Cries fit for the night
The dubious night
The doubtful night
The dangerous night
Our night

attention
her sorry eyes
plead
watch me
feel me
see me
Here
is all she wants to be
eyes on me
don't blink
see me
her heart screams
her smile screams
watch
fingernails like claws
grasp at the eyes
the mind
the whole heart
of whoever sees her cry

When I say his name I know what you feel
Like a kaleidoscope of butterflies just erupted in your stomach
The thought of him makes you wanna do flips all around
But you know you can't have him
You know he's not into you
You know he's into someone else
You know you'll never been good enough
But babygirl you just can't get over him can you
You're addicted to all his cologne
You're addicted to the way he talks to you
But he talks to you about the other girls
The girls you will never be
Babygirl trust me he will soon realize how great you are
But for now
You can't get over the way he bites his lip
It helps him focus
You can't get over the way he puts so much effort into his hair
It looks better than yours
You can't get over how blind he is
You almost tell him straight up you like him
But you know he'd just laugh in your face
You just want him to call you his baby girl
But dear theres a reason why they are called crushes
Because the crush your heart when they don't like you back.
I wrote this about my crush and honestly I'm proud of it. I just can't get over anything about him, and I know I'm just not good enough and I have to accept that

The angry drops of rain
Cries on natures pain
A way to voice to the beings with brains
Whose mentality is no less than a clogged drain
The earth soaks as much as it can
But the credit is always given to man
Who pollute and poison this environment
And leave other living beings in torment
The rivers flood, bursting their banks
Water rise from their usual ranks
It's flash flooding at this time of the day
But more to come as the high tide is on its way
Businesses and school operations are at halt
Still we humans don't admit our fault
If we look after our surroundings well, globally
And focus on environmental change locally
We could atleast relief nature from it's pains
For, I hope most of us start using our brains...*

The beginning of the end,
A brief moment of happiness
On a freshly stretched canvas
Then Gone with the blowing wind,
without track or trace,
just like the rest
Like fine sand, through my fingers
Away the one slips  
Our bridge burns down to ashes
Then the heart crashes
A journal spreads open
Begs to get touched
In sorrowed cries and swollen eyes
The ink rhymes
Then the soul dies
The end

My life you hold
Your energy too cold
For the truth was told
Yet a bid, and I was sold

The crawling rigid fear
Year after year, I hear
I'll takecare of you dear
But no one wipes my tear

An orphan, mistreated
With frowns always greeted
My voice unheard, defeated
And all this gets repeated

Each night my heart cries
My soul begs, my mind lies
Things will be ok, with tries
My face sinks as my tear dries

No love of any kind
No happiness I ever find
Too many questions in my mind
This living, is so unkind

Run away is the only option
Drawing a picture without caption
Thinking life spread in many sections
My life sliced in infinite fractions...

I have heard some, sharing their life stories with me.
This write is inspired by one of those experiences.

My (your) mind is wondering
My (your) body in abyss, lost
My (your) heart is pondering
My (your) soul is at worst

The doors that lead to my (your) mind
Is shadowed by the intensive darkness
It hardly flicks or winks to subject
That guards this (your) wrentched heart

Like a caged bird, my (your) soul cries
For freedom on every beat count
But my (your) body is weak to fight
Thus, the demons within me (you) haunt

My (your) body is withered, all bones
My (your) mind is overtaken
My (your) soul stopped glowing
I am (you're) finally, awakened!

I may be a fallen angel
From beyond the skies
Or a broken star
Burying with silent cries

Clutching onto my wings
Bearing many hurtful scars
Deemed from my own realm
While sentenced behind bars

...The conspirators,
Used me for their deed
I was one of them
Sadly, I was only their need...

Widened sleepless eyes
Searching for my freedom
In a world full of lies
I've lost, a dream kingdom

Slowly a step ahead of time
Walks my death in plain
Looking at my shroudful body
Piercing me with more pain

...Rise to my call
O' kind souls of evil
Let this world fall
I call onto the devil...

In grief and dismay
I shall rest in peace soon
My name has been called upon
To be hanged till death, at noon!
