It's dark but it won't stay this way
When a broken heart releases some of the pain
With a goodbye to yesterday
And a welcomed smile for today

It is like a burst of song
Knowing tomorrow may never come
A moment where night becomes day
To focus on life again.

Can I
Live
In your
Moment?
I want to
Learn
Focus on my now
Learning to live in the moment

A coward hiding behind the mask,
A coward who can’t handle a task.
A coward who can’t earn a dime—
Why can’t he see a bit of shine?

In a world full of intelligence,
There lives one lost in negligence.
He wants the power in his hands,
To write a story that understands.

The coward finally sees himself,
While finding his story on a shelf.
He stays inside his little shell,
Not knowing what to give up—
the fear, the past, or the hell.

There is no need to rush. Stop stressing around. Start looking at this very moment because this is where you truly are. Now. Alive.
This breath is needed for the next years to come. Let's give this breath our attention. Let's stay present with it.
This was a reminder to myself just now. I figured it might be helpful for someone else.

back in the zone, back to facing my darkest shadows,
refusing to settle for outdated versions,
choosing to confront, not run
here is where I meet myself, without the judge,
with more understanding,
and unconditional love,
because if there were no struggle,
to some degree,
how would I even begin to know the real me?
Writing has always been a way for me to express myself. I hope sharing some of it helps anyone struggling to find their voice.

Sit quietly now
and look
beyond the page

the blurs
outside the lines
and patterns
shape the hours
in our days

gently shade my creamy skin
in creases, tints and hues

creating a colorful universe

just a crayon
me and you

Unsee, unlearn, let go.
Listen to their untrue laughter, then
walk away.
Unsee their eyes,
unlearn their feelings,
clear your mind, and
just focus on your dreams,
'cause their untrue laughter
won't help you sleep.
Ruheen Mar 8
there are days
where you spend hours
trying to untangle
the chain
of a locket
it is days like these
moments in which
there is nothing
but peace
pathetic it may be
but void of a feeling
so hopeless
and adrift
because it is a goal
you can achieve
just focus and tenacity
and then finally
you're hit
with the satisfaction
when it all comes apart
a high so pure
it has you wishing for another knot
simmer Mar 5
Shut off the device: phone, tv, speaker
Stop the scrolling, binging, and rotting
Notice how small the world gets when the only problems are at your door
At which point it is your choice whether you answer the knocking

Stressors that were not meant for us shrivel
Less distractions to impede our walk
Less comments to knock us down/leave us crippled
Less idols to build our foundation on, in place of the rock

If given thought, each clip attaches us evermore to the past
For that was when they were made
By the time they reach our eyes to see
Their time has passed so hastily
And fleeting time wasn't made to last

So sit in a room and stare at the walls
That for a moment hold you in confinement
To be present where you are, in your own little world
Is peaceful however you define it

There once was a man from Mumbai
Whose face had the laziest eye:
     It opened at noon
     While the other as soon
As the sun rose was focused and spry.
