Never yours
Ikramo Oct 14
I’ve spent my life searching,
waiting for a hand to reach for mine,
but every glance is fleeting,
and every touch slips away.

I watch them all find each other,
like stars aligning in the sky,
while I stand alone in the dark,
hoping someone will see me,
but no one ever does.

I thought by now I’d know love,
feel the warmth of being someone’s home,
but I’m always just a passerby,
never the one they stay for.
never the one they choose for
Eternity

My heart aches for something
it’s never held—
a love that’s not meant for me,
a person I’ll never find.

Maybe I was meant to be alone,
to walk through life
with empty hands and heavy teary eyes,
never held, never chosen,
just waiting for something
that will never come.
and somehting that I always lose
when I cling onto it .

I still feel her
Ikramo Oct 8
I can feel you all around
even when the wind heatens up
and get warmer that’s when
you wrap your arms around  me
as I sink into your body
I can never escape you
