Whenever I remember
I look up at the sky
And remind myself that the stars are there
Even in daylight
So there's no need to cry
Inspired by something said in the book "Wild Bird"

Feedback appreciated ❤️

Anxiety wraps
itself around me,

like a coat that
doesn’t fit me

like a lover that
doesn’t love me

like a fire that
doesn’t warm me
I rewrote this poem because it felt unfinished.
On my windowsill,
of that indigo night
you took me,
and I haven't
been the same since.

Something about you
makes me want to
be a better man.
I've grown wings,
so I take to the sky.

It will have blood:
They say blood will have blood.
Remember, actions have consequences.

( Inspired by William Shakespeare's Macbeth )
The Lily looks up,
the Moon gazes back,
both knowing well,
they will fall,
soon.
I remember the full moon last year, lighting up my terrace. The flower plant looked sooo beautiful!!
One special flower was shining exceptionally bright, its face turned up toward the moon, as if it was shyly glancing at it.
It was such a magical moment............truly inexpressible!!!

I know,
I'm not good,
No need to point it out.

Tears in eyes,
waiting to fall,
lump in my throat,
trembling hands,
and an insulated, aching heart.

"Don't cry",
"You're strong",
"We'll be the best too"
the minds says,
facing the quiet mirror,
having tear-edge eyes.

I know,
I'm not good,
No need to mock.
My younger sister is an all-rounder. Beauty, intelligent, A++ student, brain, good behaviour, sense of humour, communication, etc. which I am fail at.
I am just a ugly stupid girl having high temper, whom most people dislike.
Does that affect me? Maybe................or maybe not.
She doesn't to point that out, indirectly sarcastically. I know she is the best among out and childish too but I have feeling too, even though I just shrug them off. She may say that for fun, to lighten the mood but still.................... She is a lot childish innocent cute too, but still.................... don't say that please. Please.
