Dead Sep 2020
Funny how pretty everything looks,
Soaked in over saturated colours.
I’ve been stuck in this room for months, I’ve been stuck in this skull for too long to care.
Four walls, whether paint plastered and polished.
Four walls meet my eyes.
I wish I could sew my eyes shut, only see what I imagine.
I can hear the cars becoming less constant outside, even the cats are sleeping now.
These lights are too bright for me.

I wish I could turn myself off.

tired eyes, those long nights
drinking mint tea like alcohol
whispering to myself in a soft drawl
as the frigid september air bites

my lids grow heavy as hours pass
staring at my screen for answers
words jump around like dancers
my vision becomes milky glass

as I lift my head to the dawn
my hands still across the keys
and I can finally feel at ease
now the night shadows are gone
I see shadows echoing and stretching across my walls as I sit here writing hoping that I last through the night. I fear sleeping, but I know it is irrational.

the night is fading
taking those memories with it.
this high is persuading
making reality a hypocrite

this fade is a dream-catcher
allowing me to let go.
the 99 problems don't matter
it's just me going solo

it's a new recognition
that i'm willing to live through.
uncover some new ambitions
is what i should do

exhaling out our past
****, you were the best i never had.
which will outlast?
probably this fade just a tad

You can't imagine
How glad I am
For every single meter
Walked with you

And

You won't be able to imagine
How I feel sorry
That
Early or late
Our
Paths
Will be divided...

On that forlorn and barren pathway
He was kneeling down with a weary face of variegated emotions,
which was unknown.
His eyes were glued on that person who was trudging away from him.
He looked and looked, till his eyes became as sour as his heart.
Wishing she will look back once.
But, by then the darkness engulfed the luminous light like his dazzle of life fading away,
as she goes away..
Walking away.....🚶🏻

Let your life of woes go away
Like a dandelion puff
waft in the air and
let the cajoling wind of nature
solace you by bestowing
a blitheful life of amour!

I wish our hearts were mendable,
so that we can prepare ourselves for
many more heartbreaks!
You wish?

My weak
wink
weeps
willow
wreaths
willfully
without
wilting.
