I dated a boy
or so I was told,
turns out the role
was already… co-owned.
He said, “she’s just a friend,”
a classic old line,
meanwhile daily updates
like a newsletter subscription of mine.
“Good morning, ex,
here’s what we did today,”
sir, is this a relationship
or a live commentary play?
Plot twist: she’s married,
with a kid, a whole life
but still somehow reviewing
my role as “the wife.”
And her mom in the background
oh, she had a say too,
predicting our ending
like she already knew.
I said, “be real,
or this won’t last,”
he paused for a moment…
then ran straight back to the past.
So I left
gracefully,
no scene,
just exited a triangle
I never agreed to be in.
Now here’s the lesson,
since we’re serving tea hot:
if it feels like a group chat
baby, it’s not your spot.

Time heals, they say,
but have you ever noticed
how every word you breathe is a sharp, unrelenting sting?
How you choose to speak them anyway,
no matter the agony they bring?
Have you ever noticed
the way I pick at every bruised scab
on the depths of my frayed heart,
that I once allowed you to hold?
Maybe it was my fault,
how I needed you to stay,
even though all my efforts
were nothing but in vain.
And as the blue-painted skies
slowly start to turn grey,
I still can’t find it in me
to look at you with disdain.
Although you might prefer to give up
on everything and leave
than watch wet paint dry;
I’m the one who's left to grieve,
over every truth and lie.

Walking on highways
Lighting as byways
Smiling with sourness
Eyes held distress
High on pills
Dancing on heels
Way is too hazy
Eyes are too blurry
Suffering to self
Squealing to cars
Back home tardily
On bed sadly
Waking up greasy
Back to routine as daily

"I will hold you till the end of eternity"
The few words she valued but caused her grief
She failed to understand eternity for him was just a short time
She believed in a happily ever after
But later realised it existed only beyond imagination
She fell too hard till sorrow became the song
Loneliness the chorus
And now she is long gone with betayed love

I offered you my time and You shat on it...I hope one day when the high finally fades, you realize what I meant to you and as you look through the shattered pieces of what was once a good bond, I hope you find a reminder of who you used to be,before your cup was filled to the brim and your pride just became too much to swallow.
Who you were before you started needing compliments to feed your ego ,
Before the world only became tolerable to you through a designer drug haze.
You used to be a person before you crowned yourself Queen,
High on your throne where no man could hurt you again.
You figured a Queen without a heart would put you on deck and have you sailing to paradise.
Forgetting you had to carry all your luggage, including yourself.
Feelings have no escape, and if you succeed in escaping love , you still find hate.
It's a foreign word to my tongue
Even though you made me a sidekick and then kicked me aside
I could never hate.
I let you sleep on me but now I'm awake.
You swore to yourself you would never cry, A thought that left not only your eyes but your soul dry.
It's okay to cry
The thing about tears is ,the world becomes blurry momentarily, but at the same time you never see a picture as clear.
Maybe that's why you won't shed a tear, because you are too afraid to look at the canvas you let everyone but yourself paint.
Scared that it won't come out as perfect as you envisioned.
Maybe that's why you had to let me go, because I wasn't the right shade to be put in such a picture.
For what it's worth, you'll always be on my canvas, as a permanent mark, a delicate part of the picture that could not be completed because of its nature...
I guess it took its toll,
Nature that is.
And when the wind blew in our direction the branch we shared wasn't enough to hold us together.
So I let go, this leaf took leave.
I hope your social stature is enough to keep you afloat.
And my final words?
Save yourself.
This is the end, and I hope you are happy.

I'm being faithful to nothing,
to a memory,
to the ghost of what we never had.
But letting someone else sleep under these sheets,
hold me like you did,
feels like betrayal.
So I rather go to bed alone,
cover my body with your shirt,
and if I try hard enough I can still smell you in it,
than let anyone else erase with their touch the prints of your hands.
