The world went dark at midnight.

Fires gave one last valiant roar and died away.

Candles sputtered and drowned in their pools of wax.

Lanterns flickered and fell into an eternal sleep.

And the moon itself turned black
and came crashing down;
as the stars drifted away
abandoning us here.

The end of the world was at midnight.

Students pledged...' and treat everyone with courtesy'...while a teacher managed to kick out a hungry beggar away from school's compound...

Long pages aren't enough..
a sea full of blue ink aren't enough..
a novel of description about you aren't enough..
days and nights to spend with you , aren't enough..
my phone's storage to treasure our memories aren't enough..
my short life to live with you aren't just enough..

suicide is not an option
suicide is not an option
suicide is not an option
suicide is not an option
suicide is not an option
suicide is not an option
suicide is not an option

the clouds say hi
mosaic sky
invigorating petrichor
satisfied sigh

worms come to breathe
sea and land bequeath
downcast children wanting more
sky a gloomy wreath

go out in the rain
and feel life on your skin
energy made lucid
earth's spirit within

lofi hip hop decorates my brain
notebook formulaic and profane
anxiety seeps my malleable mind
latching onto anything it finds.
