I want to die..
But im scared
I want to die but what's after death?
Is it magical like my mom said?
Or is it worse than hell in the ways described to me by my dad?
I want to die but i cant because im scared of what's after death

फूलों से प्यार है उसे,
सूरज की किरने चूमता है उसका चेहरा।
हँसती है तो खिल उठता है समा,
एक नज़र से उसकी, हम हो जाते फ़ना।
She loves flowers,
The sun’s rays kiss her face.
When she laughs, the world blooms,
With just a glance, I am lost in her.
They "lost" you didn't they?
Misplaced you fairly far away I'm sure,
How it's always it's an accident or a situation blur,
When they cast you off in the fray.
People have to stop 'misplacing' people and things.
patiently, i wait -
my legs crossed,
and my heart too.
much time has passed
since the inevitable happened,
and yet, the light of a clement morn
never fails to justify the agony
of dying stars in the night sky;
or the ones too dead for even the
darkness that consumed them.
the heavens dispatch their
messenger birds to nook the
wisdom into the branches
of trees whose roots have shrewd
under the weight of logs that
outline their ascent.
such trees call upon the sages
to enlighten them,
and to warn them -
for they know too well how the
message might confound in the grips
of those who practise hedonism.
perhaps, the light has always been
too blinding for mortal eyes.

the flowers bloom all the same;
the winds usher the fragrant truth -
slowly, but surely;
and i lie in hope for the
rancid thoughts to inevitably
take on new meanings…

patiently.
life is like a clock it just ticks away
hours they go by into another day
days they turn to weeks then the months appear
then before you know another year is here

round and round it goes as the times go bye
we dont realize how fast the time can fly
like the circle of life it goes on and on
the way it has to be for each and everyone
You are the sun
That peeks
Through the window,
Letting me know that
It's time to get the day
Started.

You are the roots,
Cut and carved from the trees
That provide shelter,
A place to live,
A place to grow.
A foundation built
From strong roots,
That stretch and wrap around me.

You are the air that circulates
Through my lungs,
The air that, if I think about too long,
I'll mess up how much
You've changed my life.

When I am in you,
I am not in some house,
Nor am I in just any old room.
I realize that I am home,
That I have everything I need.

When I close my eyes,
The first thing I see
Is you,
And how the first thing
I want to do is come back
To you
And so I write here
so as not to disturb.
What can I say?
All I am is words.

I tend to try to engrave people into my memory

I used to try to remember their scent as well, but my sense of smell has been long gone

Their voices,

Their laughs,

Their gestures,

I stare and watch

Almost burning a hole into their soul

Wanting to deepen the memories and carve them within me,

Interlinking them within the cells in my being.

I at times observe my hands in hopes I'd feel their touch in an instant,

Try to feel the warmth I once felt from their hugs by creating a tight space when I sleep,

Or close my eyes to dive deep in my subconscious in hopes of finding their voice,

Only to be disappointed once again by my own clouded thoughts.

I'd like to think its not my fault, but it is

I think a lot.

Much of the space in my mind is occupied with an absurd amount of worries

Things which take up too much space

And make me forget.
