My Parents
Ivy Chakma Oct 3
I look at my parents and find them so simple hearted,
Yearning for nothing more; but significance.
Time slows down in their company and heart takes the lead.
I find myself confused in emotions of pity and regret for I know there is only this much time I have with them and there is so much more I want to do with them.

A question for all
Ivy Chakma May 29
Why does pain create the most beautiful songs, the most passionate poems and the lifelong eternal bonds?
Just a feeling that dawned upon me as I sat by myself listening to some of my all time favourites. A feeling that never got replaced but kept getting added onto.

Thirst
Ivy Chakma Aug 2023
I am broken enough for somebody to sustain me with tiny droplets of love. A seasonal drought and yet the thirst dies when someone showers some love, even for a short while. That still counts, right!

Old letter
Ivy Chakma Jul 2023
I will love you when winters are old and summers are tired;
I will love you between all hours;
For my mind only wonders with you and what can I say about the heart, it’s fallen too.

The Faded part of love
Ivy Chakma Aug 2022
I feel like the faded part of love;
it feels like the end even before it had a chance to begin.

I feel like the faded part of love;
An invisible longing from a lover,
unsettling and echoing in the dark.
A conastantaneous pain that slowly crawls into my body and engulfs the soul that seeks freedom from all the humanly attachments.

I feel like the faded part of love!
I feel like the faded part of love!
Expressing the feeling of what it's like to be in love with a man already taken and the longing and the understanding and the fight within oneself of never really having him completely to yourself. The feeling of knowing that he was never to be yours to begin with.

A short love
Ivy Chakma Jun 2022
I feel like a flower that blooms with every lover that looks into my eyes;

But then the fear the engulfs me is that I will die as the season ends.

Reminding myself
Ivy Chakma Sep 2020
I know i was born for something greater
than just wait and watch life pass me by.
I have a purpose i feel deep within my core;
A need to fulfill every time my heart screams
"don't settle, not yet".
I believe i can be all i want to be,
All i need to do is hear my calling
in this suppressed world of illusions.
I don't know how far i can go
but i won't stop trying.
You will always find people especially loved ones who will not always support your dreams, but if you want it bad and it gives you chills, know that it is the right thing to do. Don't dishearten yourself with failures, it is the most vital part of your progress.
Ivy Chakma Apr 2020
To you I am like the winter snow,
There is only this much of me you will ever know,
There are darker parts of me buried under the snow.
There is so much a person will know as much as you are willing to show. No one can ever know all of you but you. You man seem as beautiful and fascinating as the snow but know one will know the inner dangers covered underneath the snow.

For dreams (1 of many)
Ivy Chakma Apr 2020
For what I desire, I will have to
set my sleep on fire.
I have realised over and over again that when you truly want something so desperately, it gets your adrenaline running, you can give it all up.

Unforgettable
Ivy Chakma Apr 2020
By being my truest purest form,
I will be unforgettable to you.
One can never forget the other after he has seen her brightest to the darkest sides.

A gift

To be forgiving is the hardest,
But the sweetest gift to the self.

My heart aches to know
Ivy Chakma Jul 2019
My heart aches to know
how lonely you maybe
despite a son, a daughter and a lover,
how lonely you maybe
despite a career and people
a brother and a sister
a dog and a neighbour,
how lonely you maybe
breathing, smiling, falling,
drinking, sobbing,
smashing, breaking apart, screaming,
my heart aches to know
that despite knowing how lonely you could be,
I am miles away helpless
thiking about you.

For those who seek for forgiveness
I forgive you,
for those who are lost
I will help you through,
For those who are hurt
I will heal with you,
For those who seek love
Love yourself and then the other.

Stronger
Ivy Chakma Mar 2019
Don't let the world shatter you darling
Don't let your situations today define you,
Don't let your anger and frustration take over you.
This world is a timeless circle of good and bad,
If it is bad for you today
Then good is sure to come your way.
All you have to do is just stay
And not get swayed away.
To all those in self-doubt and anger and need someone to hear you out, you are not alone. You will rise and shine when the time comes, till then hold.

Days
Ivy Chakma Feb 2019
If today was like yesterday
And yesterday was a tomorrow,
I would never wish for another day
And cherish all of my today.

The longing
Ivy Chakma Nov 2018
What do I do of a heart, that has been
broken and disappointed
time and again;
And yet is longing for it to be loved.

Inner thoughts
Ivy Chakma Sep 2018
I think I surrounded myself with people
so i can forget the pain,
I am not sure what it is! but I know it exists,
because it rolls down my cheeks when I am alone.

I work till my eyes get tired,
and my legs say I beg of you,
So I don't have to face the pain
when my eyes have the conversation
with my ceiling fan.

To everyone and the society I have it all,
the idol life and I, expected of the same.

But I am just a simple girl,
wanting to be happy.
But then again, what is happy?

My Ocean
Ivy Chakma Sep 2018
You,.. everytime I look at you,
You feel like the ocean.
The way it feels like an escape,
You feel the very same,
You,... you are filled with depth and passion.
You,... you are my ocean.

A letter for him
Ivy Chakma Sep 2018
I am going to be stronger and wiser to myself this time.
You weren't there in my hardest time,
And you left me at a time when I too needed somebody the most,
I guess that somebody just wasn't you.
So hear me out while I scream it to your face
while you call me selfish and inhuman,
You weren't there when I needed you the most.
Now I am not obliged to get back to square one
and loose myself again in the process to be good to you,
because I am. too busy being good to myself

I shed a tear in my silent sorrow,
where I have the ones who love
Yet my heart a caged dove,
it feels like it will burst.

If there is a place,
a place filled with love and happiness,

Fill my heart with beautiful lace,

I will soon forget this past,
For time flies really fast,
But this chapter isn't  my last.
