Please read me to sleep

What have I left when I fall asleep? The incoherent small mutterings of the harsh realities on my shoulders. It is heavy yet when I dream it's all gone. I say goodbye but not as in 'I will never see you again'. You sit there with a book in your hand, Cinderella, a really old disney book. With ...

Poem 2

.. The shadow promised me Not to leave again But when the night came It disappeared Like it was never there.

Poem | 04✍

Why so high, this space between? You're close in thought, but far unseen. I try to speak, my heart betrays— Afraid to reach, I drift, I stay. Boundary. Photo not mine :exclamation: :exclamation:

Splashing in Puddles

Dancing in the rain makes one wet, A frontal lobotomy, and you'll forget, Your dance partner slips in a muddy puddle, A slap in the face is never subtle. Turn the other cheek, for another slap, Bully beat down broken knee cap, Strap one tightly for the electrical shock, Push the prisoners out the ...

Bland

It was a mistake to desire the light, aware that it's bound to fade. It was a mistake to unshackle my binds, aware that fate commands the way. What is fortitude? Sincere belief What is belief? Glint of hope What is hope? Trojan Horse of pain Life is bland. It's as tasteful as d...

My true experience

On a recent train journey, a common modern scene unfolded before me: a child utterly absorbed in a mobile game, prompting his mother's familiar lament, "You play all day on your phone; give your eyes a rest!" A child specialist, observing the interaction, nodded knowingly. "It's the reality for ever...

The offering.

i watch you now like a factory shuttering at down- each clank against metal echoes deeper than silence. once, the machines inside you roared, now they sputter out, leaving only hollow corridors where your laughter fractured. you stood as a living blueprint: each idea a steel beam, spearheading our s...

Steps by step guide on how to fall in love

Inconclusive Perception

Next year, it will have been 10 years ago

Though the title sounds fitting for a piece of prose, I can assure you this is in no way another poem to be added to my collection. A month or so ago, I was reminded that I ed B&WA on the 18th of January 2016. Thus, I will be celebrating my 10 year anniversary next year. This discovery has do...

Fruit From the Tall Tree

..*——————*.. Pure as the hatchling doves. Reaching at fruit from the tall tree, Tipping our toes to taste an older love. Reddened skin of the budding quince, Laden with quivering tenderness That the fading of spring imprints. Laying in the untouched flowerbed Are young ...

She Taught Me Stillness

Stillness, she taught me, was how not to shatter but how to settle like silt, unseen beneath the tide, an unwavering dive shaped to appease. Praised for wearing kelp as skin, I was pressed into the ocean floor unchanging, A girl folding breath into silence. I watch those before me, hus...

paradox.

My bones are splintering apart My tendons twist. My muscles groan and rearrange themselves behind the thoracic cavity, attach to the right intercostal space, readying for the catharsis. Something is clawing at my marrow, scraping a dull blade in the sides for leftover grief so I can bake it in the ...

Long ago, I thought of writing this. As I memorized your face— your virtues, your failures. How you taught my ancestors to devour the firmament. They drank the blood of stars, took in its warmth. Turned breath into sugar, wind into sweetness. I bla...
