Writings

Happiness

(For context, most of my recent poems are just sad)


Is this it?

Have I finally found what I’ve been looking for?

For… years…

She’s staring at me… waiting for a response to her confession…

And the crazy part is… this time I truly do love this person…

How do I even respond? I don’t even wear chapstick, kissing is out of the question…

In a meak voice, I just say ā€œI’ve waited for so long for this mom...

A Game To Play

Ready to play a game?

Ready to guess

The the thing

Each stanza will

Be something new

And soon you will try to

Guess

What thing

Each stanza is about

Let me know what you got

You ready?

I hope so

Let it start…


You were a fighter when I saw you

Your brain different from the others

But when you disappeared

It made my smile go away

I still see your face

The same I remember

But here no mo...

Q&A

This is new

Even for me

But i want to know if you have questions for me


You may ask

It’s a QNA

It’s ok if you don’t want to


But I shall tell

I may not share

Personal info


If you ask on age I’ll give

You a range


So ask whatever you’d like

Im here to answer...

Aaba

I liked to break things

I wished to not see

Unfortunately, I yielded no control over my happenings

The consequence was misery,

And forgoing

Someone once asked me

How to move up without fighting

The enemy

You can’t, so stop lingering

In fact, it you and I had been held in disbelief

An airy feeling

That seeps in, contortedly

Is not one that is welcoming

When it has been

Said that no man is an island...

No Place Like Home

A start

A side


A quiet ,query place that wanders

A solitary corner

A empty abyss


A unfamiliar space

A little more than an empty room

A few feet away in a dark corner

A light breeze that fades


No Place Like Home,

No Place Like Home


My home

So comfortable

So comforting

So uplifting

So bright


My home

So beautiful and so peaceful

So much love

So happy

So many more years together

So much...

Starr

I'm so scared

My skin is bare

My hands are bound

I make no sound


Red, white, blue flashing

Your body crashing

I scream your name

Youre not to blame


Your body's cold

You sold your soul

To those streets

Where you get beat



My name is Starr

I'll raise the bar

To get revenge

For you I'll avenge...

The Haiku Of Imagination

I can imagine

Imagine as much I like

I can imagine...

The two sides of Delusion

Delusion is my dearest friend.

Delusion is my cruelest foe.

I wear it like a suit of steel—

shiny, cracked, a fragile glow.


It guards me from the jagged truths,

too sharp to hold, too raw to know,

but locks me in a silent room

where doors forget which way to go.


Inside, the echo keeps me close,

my voice returns not quite my own.

I trust the shadows more than light,

and waltz with lies I’ve alway...

Torn Memories

I never did anything to deserve this

You said we should be friends instead

You said our relationship was getting dull

You said it was nothing against me

You said that you couldn’t lean on me


I bet there’s another girl involved in this

You promised to not let anyone come over our relationship

And you did


My heart was half healed from a ex until you broke my heart again

Leaving a deep gash

Y...

Sea Shells

You tread so carelessly and selfish through life


Wreaking havoc, destroying hearts and causing strife


For you, it was but a moment, a normal thing that you do


For me, it is a lifetime of reliving what you put me through


I close my eyes and picture myself at the sea

as you toss, throw, and rip like waves through me


Like the rogue waves, you strain and hold me down

Sinking into darkness,...
