#streak
On this losing streak Has to turn around Strive so hard but cannot escape Failure to which I am bound Until starting positive changes Disappointment will remain on your face Day after day promise to improve Clear to see that's not the case Gone are effortless exchanges Excited words once eagerly shared Sitting on sheets together For a relationship was unprepared In blink of an eye you lifted my world A little closer towards the sun Leaving each trace of regret beneath my feet No idea what we had begun All the moments spent since I've discovered in your company Collected and shown on display inside Like antique coins or paintings in an art gallery Done proclaiming pathetic excuses Instead of trying my best You deserve someone who would die in order To protect treasure buried in your chest

Losing Streak
Fogged-up glass Rain drops Blood drops Spattering, ****** handprint Streaking down like the rain Imaging flashing into my head I need to turn this into a proper poem

Colorful streak pierced my heart to glow This is what beauty on earth has to show Let my sweetheart take you on to grow Your tenderness bloom my heart to blow Romantic mood with curves , curvatures Portray charms, graces of beauty statures Roses will touch your feet to be the halters Let your graceful gait be seen by defaulters My love spread your beauty to be just seen To see you in bloom I am ready and keen Slow wind touches your curly hair like teen Your ocean green eyes make life ever green Col Muhammad Khalid Khan Copyright 2016 Golden Glow

Colorful Streak
it's white so pure so fresh so clean so tell me why the red that flows looks like a scar, so mean? it's sparkly so fluffy so new so light so tell me why the red that flows looks just like blood, so bright? it's racing and racing and flowing and falling leaves a scrape and a streak as it runs down the peak a strange sled of red down a white snowy head

why so red when it is so white
Sunshine. That beam of light, that shines so bright. It warms my skin, I try to soak it in. I know winter will come, and this feeling will be gone. This feeling of complete peace, as I feel my joy increase. What a beautiful streak of light.

When the streak burns off I have to get it back Somehow, someway Writing is a inconsistent athlete That does well then goes cold We all want to break the mold But who will be there when were beyond old? I want my name in there But who am I?

Streak
I need a win. Just to feel like I'm not scrabbling. Just to feel like I'm not being dragged by undercurrents, knees and palms ****** as they scraped against the sand. I need a win Just to feel like when I open my mouth, something comes out, something that resembles my voice, and not flies rattling around my ribcage. I need a win, Just to feel like my mind isn't imploding on itself, full Big Brother, each whisper a shout, each sigh a taunt, each silence deafening. I need a win, Just to feel like my lips aren't sealed with duct tape and industrial glue, like I'm not being thrown into the river, hands tied to my back, pockets filled with rocks and lungs full of blood, because even in drowning I can't get it right the first time. I need a win, because I've been on such a long-running losing streak That I feel like I should get a **** Guinness world record For 'most pathetic'. I need a win, because every time I stumble, the pavement seems to be more forgiving. I need a win, because otherwise, losing becomes normal. Life is a constant battle, And I sometimes think that, at this point, it may very well be my last.
