we are each others favourites;
no one talks first
no one talks last
but somehow
somewhere in the middle
we find each other;
maybe that's fine

Holy ****
I love you
I want to scream it
From earths peaks
A buffet of love
abundant
eating it makes me weak
From the hot summer breeze
naked in the sheets
I love you cold as winter
And sweaty from the heat
Two years ago
today we meet
Our journey has been
cheap bourbon
First bitter, now sweet.
"Last a little longer!"
The heart is getting colder.

My mind trapped in the ocean.
And I am trapped in my mind.
This place is full of slow motion.
Feel like I can not determine.

Bruh, tell me what happens
after when the lights out?

Keep asking me the same thing, 'why?'
May see the answer with magnifying.

Might look cold from the outside
But I am struggling in the dark side
There is nowhere to get lost or hide
They can't hear my scream from inside.

Searched a switch, packed the emotions.

"You gotta go, you gotta go!"
My feet started to numb.

Keep pushing the limit to overcome
Heard a voice asking the net income
Am I ready now, for the next scrum

I know that I can't give up.
I want peace of mind.

Ying and yang
Wild and tame
Desert and rain
Curvy and framed
Opposites
but I'll always
love you
the same

My favourite day is which I spend with you,
My favourite story is "OURS",
My favourite night is in bed with you in my arms,
My favourite  morning is when you wake me with a kiss and a cup of hot coffee,
And my worst nightmare is you leaving me

A ruffled heart, an unsettled soul
The Almighty's kept her off the dole
'Why are you silent, mighty Lord?
Assure me, the universe acts per your accord'

She sauntered slowly down the street
Smiling at her loved ones, keeping life's misgivings discreet
She could feel the pain gently seeping in,
A scathing body, and a dubiety-clenched heart within

Of lost love and dead men they talk
Her agony of vacillations is why then put in a dock?
‘Smile, my dear heart’, she cried
There ain’t no world for the dreary-eyed

As the achy moments turned into uncurious days
Like mayflowers, new truths radiated
In her anxious ears, He gently whispered
‘Told you so, my dearest; T’you I shall always give the best’

Her heart triumphed, as His misty aura slowly unblocked
And slowly she rejoiced with every new truth unlocked
On fresh green lawns, she now runs
Ahoy! See there - a fortress of faith and new spring suns
I wrote this when I was in a semi-anxious, semi-delighted state. I haven't written any poem since this day, but when I read this again today, I realised the power of my own thoughts and words to lift me up, and remind me to keep faith.
