As if I don't know what it means to be alone
As if I don't know the feeling when I had it all
As if I don't know the warmth of hug in chilly mornings
As if I don't know the talks we had with no meanings.
As if I don't know waking up besides a smiling face
As if I don't know the tiring of breathing race

I know every bit of being two bodies but one soul
But what if he moved on and left me behind all sore.
As if I don't know how it feels to be alone
How does it feel to wait for long gone
But I don't want a life boat to survive
I want my cruise ship to sail through life
Love has left me without giving reasons
But I will look on till I find the one in a perfect season.

Love
is a never ending poem
written in erratic lines
which mostly doesn't
but sometimes rhymes.

Don't know if I am too weak
or too **** stark,
to not feel hatred against
the one who broke my heart.
Ruhani Feb 2019
My broken dreams
are kept between,
yellowed pages of the book
like a dried flower.
I still want to smell
fragrance of the zeal
I used to put
to achieve those dreams.
But holding in my hand
I realized how brittle they are,
even to think about it
shatters my heart.

There is Me
and there is Another Me.
Another Me is superior to Me
But it is Me,
Who wants Another me
to be superior to Me.
To feel highly
To achieve overtly
Look gracefully
Speak commanding
Be loved deeply
Head held high
In the runs of society
But Another Me
is pushing Me
To feel lowly of myself
Because Me is simply
Happy in even less than
Worldly.
Me cannot be Me
If trying to be Another Me
and Another Me won't leave Me
until she becomes supremely
Torn between these two
is only ME.

Of all the things about you,
I miss your gentle snores,
Like the purring of a kitten,
I felt safe and at peace.
