I don't own you
and perhaps I never will
so the red in my veins
when you smile at him
I have no right to feel


Yet I have these words
my heart want to spill out
but it get stuck in between my teeth


Hence, the discreet smile
I suddenly wear when you eyes graces my stare


Today, I finally have a date with my fear
And like a loose thread on my favourite sweater I can't resist pulling -despite knowing it could unravel around me.

And just as I was about to open the secret safe of my heart
The alarm clock
snatched the keys almost instantly!

She was the kind of chaos,
you'd want to take your time to get to know on another level,
deeper & more patiently than anyone has ever taken the time to.
Broken yet Beautiful

you would forever be my paradox.
you are that hot girl whose bosoms kept   *me warm during the the cold nights.
the same one who made me ignorant of *all the ways you could burn me.
She can burn too...

vivian cloudy
I watch the water
beam from the sun
and that is what you call
making love
The Earth is the greatest poet I know.
I pluck at her expression
every so often
merely attempting
to translate her lyrics
into something,
just something
we can all feel and understand
My salutes to you, Earth.

'Souls who aim highest end up falling the furthest,' people always warned.
But, even if that was true,
even if the possibility & fear of stumbling was inevitable*
and their dreams destined to be shorter
than a butterfly's breath,
*It would count as something worth the pain, bruises & scars it might bring.
Aim Higher

He ever knew what it felt like to be haunted,*
*Until she looked at him like no one else

Looking for a 'soulmate'?
I'm not the right person,
If you mind is not 'LOUD' & your soul asleep,
I long for originality, authenticity & total imperfection.

I'll have you thinking for yourself & subsequently questioning every decision you've ever made,
I'd be your greatest confusion,
Half moon, Half sun;
A song too sacred for your lips,

Yet I will LOVE you till eternity falls asleep.

— The End —
