#situation
I feel like I’m trapped in a box made out of glass. I can see but cannot do anything. I can hear but cannot say anything. I can feel but I have to. I lay on the ground of my box, like in-chained. I don’t move, I can but won’t. The air is getting less and less as I feel the walls of my box growing closer and thicker. It takes my breath and will. My will which held me here. But why?

Why?
my heart used to flutter when you texted me I would gush at every compliment but then I was impatient to be called yours you cut our situationship off and decided we should be just friends it broke my heart as tears streamed down my face but soon enough I accepted it as that but then you became distant and stopped replying to me you left me on read/seen it made my heart heavy and stomach churn I stopped begging for your attention and affection now I no longer care I do not feel anything for you my heart is steady I don't look forward to your texts I barely think of you I am done done with this mess I will wipe my hands of this situation and leave it in the past

the end of what could've been
So easy for you being done with me Tears cried for your name Things begin looking up for a bit They always end the same That doesn't make much sense to me Spin circles round and round Scream at the top of my lungs that I love you Your ears just ignore the sound Like trapped inside a transparent box Too incompetent to escape Hands are bound with ropes My mouth is covered in tape To make peace with you is all I desire Understand irrational fears On surface situation is black-and-white Beneath layers more complex than it appears

he used to say that my hair was black and that my toenails were red his hands were bigger than mine because he was an older guy i ain't no mysterious he just couldn't figure me out there have many ways to know me maybe he never saw me this serious he didn't knew me, oh he never did thought i was his catwoman with my body shapped on his hands far away from his lands and i have to say to myself everyday what he did to me whispers of love in the air so distant from the end and i have to say to mysef everyday what he did to me what he did to me...

Catwoman
We water the seeds in our heads, So that the flowers can grow there, Because we love the beauty of blooming, Sometimes we love beauty so much that we tear one from our garden and give it to someone important to us, Some put them in water and nurture them gently, Others throw them away or let them wither, Some also give a flower in return, Others do not return a flower, It can be one of the greatest proofs of love, But it can also be one of the most painful experiences,

Their pencils glide across the unfinished canvas, my fingers tap on the keyboard and fill the white void on the screen. They search for the right colors, while I search for the right words. Meanwhile, you change pencils as I rearrange the themes. The commonality that unites us is creating, observing, ultimately cherishing the moments that the souls around us experience. Each creation is unique, in its form, as it happens. None like the other, once it happens, it will not happen a second time.

Creator and Creation
Remarkably resilient You vowed to stay dormant There weren’t any spores But your gentle caresses spreading it by touch You kept me in the dark The tears moisturised it So it continued to grow, It thrived Love moulding All over my soul Love, moulding All over my soul Let the light in Let the air in

Love moulding
I really can't stay Baby, it's cold outside I've got to go on Baby, it's cold outside This  was shure hell Hoping that you'd drop a message So, very nice I'll hold your heart, it's just like ice My mother will start to worry Beautiful, what's your hurry? My father will be pacing the floor Listen to that heart beat So, really I'd better worry Beautiful, please don't hurry But maybe just a hald a drink more I'll put some records on while I pour The neighbors might think Buts, it's bad out there Say, what's in this drink? No cabs to be had out there I wish I knew how Your eyes are like starlight now To break this spell I'll take your hat, your hair looks like hell I ought to say, "No, no, no sir" Mind if I move in closer? At least I'm gonna say that I tried What's the sense in hurting my pride? I really can't stay Baby, don't hold out Baby, it's cold outside Ugh, you're very pushy, you know? I'd like to think of it as opportunistic I simply must go Baby, it's cold outside The answer is, "No" But, baby, it's cold outside The welcome has been How lucky that you dropped in So nice and warm Look out the window at that storm My sister will be suspicious Gosh, your lips look delicious My brother will be there at the door Waves upon a tropical shore My maiden aunt's mind is vicious Gosh, your lips are delicious But maybe just cigarette more Never such a blizzard before I've got to get home Baby, you'll freeze out there Say, lend me your comb? It's up to your knees out there You've really been grand I thrill when I touch your hand But don't you see? How can you do this thing to me? There's bound to be talk tomorrow Think of my life-long sorrow At least there will be plenty implied If you got pneumonia and died I really can't stay Get over that hold out Baby, it's cold Baby, it's cold outside Okay, fine, just another drink That took a lot of convincing

Kiss my neck
Talking to you never gets easier I fall back into fifteen Every time your name is on my screen The giddiness, the waiting Waiting to see what you say But now it's been almost ten years What do I want to hear? I'm not sure Why do you tell me things aren't good with her? At the absolutely worst timing I have someone now And you're not around We're just talking

I hate you so much Because I love your stupid face I hate it when you text me Because I wait for it all day I hate it when you lie But I’ll still come back for more I hate that we have fun Because I wish you made me bored I hate you in the morning When I wake up from my dreams I hate that you’re in every one I can’t escape it seems I hate you in the evening When your face keeps me awake And I hate you with each and every Single breath I take.

I don’t want to chase you anymore, Alexis. So from this moment on I’m choosing not to. If our paths are meant to cross again then I hope that they do. But as of now I have no legitimate desire to continue to be led on by you.

the text I sent you after midnight
grief, for a mother has lost her child grief, for a sister has lost her brother grief, for a friend who has lost his grandfather grief, for our azure has cried for us grief, for the soil is losing its place for us grief, for that's the only thing that we can do now

it is grief
DEAR PENPAL PEOPLE, who wants to count to ten when you can carry on to infinity? she stopped time and asked a question planted silence in advance faced my truth on a real talk never thought it was hard to stand or walk rock plays numb humiliation the inhale echoes wounds then exhalation denial and defense tears welled up the hidden immense the wind swings a lost count to infinity sings red eyes step on two legs cries and undeniable disguise forbidden was for me to reveal the vulnerable due the intimidated call of how things are messed up in sort to fall and now I think of how it stinks memories of misery a step between me and the cemetery embarrassment attacks white lies painted above the blacks stepped on me a bug under the shoe and I let it be guess that she knew but the answer hung in air and flew my confidence buried peacefully when already dead and the winter cold shivers in my head -----ravenfeels

Inhalation And Exhalation
you’re just my blessings in disguise but we’re hiding from feelings that should be discussed Everyone can see that there’s something there But I shoot my shot ... it goes unnoticed by you. Every single time. I’m just scared to find out the truth on. Why everything is taken so long Sometimes I leave myself to think about A situation way too much and forget about life. Feeling like I’m trapped. Running away from my thoughts. When all I want to do is talk to You.But I can’t . I wish I could just pick up the phone and talk to you. I’m just hoping this thing we have can work out. There’s only so much I can take before I’m done. In letting in some sort of love.

blessings in disguise
Sometimes one doesn't emit any shade or tone.We actually see the reflection radiated by the prevailing situation upon one's own aura. © Spriha Kant
