the paper in front of me remains unsoiled,
no traces of muddled thoughts,
blunt conviction,
or even a speck of wariness.

the solace that i had found
in creating my own gospels
was nowhere to be found.

words no longer gushed
from the corners of my mouth,
nor did it try to burrow into nothingness.

no matter how many times
i twist and untwist these jumbled letters together,
i am woefully greeted with none other than
static and white noise.
perhaps this will serve as my memento mori

The soul
Of my ink

Is you

The way you have a way with words,
I bless every book and every poem
that has ever graced your sight.
I praise the letters you've strung thus far,
if I could, I'd stitch them with my own
to make a blanket of letters that would
cover and protect you in the next winter.
Now I am writing astray,
but from my original pseudonym
I am never too far away.
You are the one writing these poems,
I am just your hands and the veins on them.

I forget the way to fill



an empty space.

How do I create
when all I've done is erase?

Bunch of happiness, looks like coffee nuts dancing around my head.
I thought they are sweet chocolates.
But the fact is they all are coffee nuts filled with sweetness along with some bitter taste.
I took 25 % of them for my head ache,  25 % for my mood swings, and the other 50 % for my happiness.
And now, i'm going to prepare a coffee for myself, with pure milk and i will not allow any other essence to take part in this process. Because i want the most purest form of coffee to heal my burning soul and i will enjoy that bitterness along with happiness. ☕❤
Flow with your creative spirit...

Someone's story just ended in
page fifty-three
The pen fell and no one can pick it up to
start again
The last goodbye is an unfinished line in
chapter eight
Phantom words will be this story's only
friend
"Hello" is now forgotten where the ink bleeds
"the end"
Nobody knows when their acknowledgements go next…

the romantics
after meeting you
will idealize love

the poets
after loving you
will romanticize loss

A writer wants the reader to pause when encounter a semicolon, not to stop from reading!!
Let's don't give time to think of giving up..
let us continue our journey ,

Some pauses are meant to be good😉

No hint of anything can be seen in the cavernous depths of my mind. A vast expanse of nothingness.
And then a wall.
A solid obsidian entity unwilling to shift for means other than its own.
Not a singular ray of light shining in.
All of the rifts in the mass patched.
Solid.
An impenetrable barrier.
Hopeless.
It’s been a while….
