Sally A Bayan

Something caught me off guard, that hot day,
an unexpected thunder roared its presence,
violent...continuously rose in volume...
the throbbing...the thumping...the
pounding intensified...while swarms of red
and pink fragments simultaneously emerged,
and skillfully created arcs...becoming orbs,
multiplying, spreading...merging...then
shaping into rounds, like atoms...combining,
revealing...bearing a scary realization...
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
suddenly, arms and hands felt cold,
thunder softened...waned...arcs and orbs stilled,
chest started to rise and fall, peacefully.......yet, here i am,
anticipating a next time...when thunder roars anew...

...heart palpitations yesterday,while far from the house,
tried capturing the images...the feeling...

In Conclusion

In Conclusion

In conclusion, you don’t want me.
The rest of this is wasted.
Worthless words, 
Tasteless,
Useless in their
Needless,
Hopeless,
Pointlessly
Persistant tangents.
Get to the crux. 
As beautiful as it was,
 As much as this *****,
 A dream is all it could be
 Because, 
In conclusion, you don’t want me.

Mixtape

Mixtape

Those silly songs;
so sad but true
With lost feelings
of me and you

I played it on
with the tape's side A
Felt like blossoms of dawn
and flowers of May

I flipped the tape
Found side B's empty
The same thing I get
Every time you look at me

"You'll get over this."
You once confided
That's what our love is;
Too one-sided

I wrote this three years ago and I'd love to share it here with you! ♥

My Life is A Series of Unfortunate Events

I am a new girl in this old town
Trying to figure out what life is
I am a princess with no gown
Living in a castle covered in grease

I have my whole heart with some broken dreams
Keeping my hopes always high
I have my eyes with a vibrant gleam
Shutting them off whenever I cry

I am a coward with a hand of a dauntless dame
Reaching for people in times of need
They call me
nonsense,
radical
and lame
What a harsh reality, indeed!

Reasoning

Reasoning

There is a reason I never return your calls

I don't have nothing to say
I wish I could forget about you
and all the memories we've made

There's a reason we only text

I can't hear your voice
I have no words to express my feelings
you don't make it easier

There's a reason I can't see you

I'm hurt
I don't want to cry or get mad
It can go both ways

I just don't want your face in my head
I don't want to see you in my dreams

I've been half lucid
half livid

Woman a Human

Woman a Human

Men are created to lead
Yes I do believe,
But you have no right
To force a woman to bleed
She is not a machine
Meant for your pleasure,
She has a heart
You ought to treasure.
Her duty is not only
to bear children
But she loves, nurture them
And shares their burdens.

God bestowed her with a mind
Dear society don't be blind!
She has the free will
To do what is right

Treat her 'A HUMAN'

My cup of tea

My cup of tea

The moment I decide to give up
A spark ignites in a mysterious cup.
A special tea garnished with
the aroma of friends, family and even a foe,
it challenges me to taste all that life has to offer,
Be it sweet, sour or bitter.

Destitute Shack

Destitute Shack

baby since you don't
love me anymore
I feel splinters of pain
in my heart's core

you went away leaving
an aching so deep
why couldn't you stay
close to my keep

the void of emptiness
brings no elation
only the essence
of soul deprivation

baby them splinters
ain't
too
good
baby them splinters
so
hurtful
of
wood
baby them splinters
mean
in
sting
baby them splinters
cruel
of
ping

you've gone and won't
ever be back
your love for me
but a destitute shack

The piece was inspired by a friend, she suggested that I write a poem about splinters...and this is what I came up with.
