A poet's thoughts

A poet's thoughts Expression of written words silently without voicing them ...

Fallen angel

Stoic, fearless and fierce
She used to be.
Firmly she stood on shaking grounds,
One look sent many packing.
Without remorse, unapologetic
She was the foundation,
Like a breeze signaling the end
of autumn .
Envious, what's there to envy?
For even her dazzling pools held so much hostility than warmth.
Empty soul, void of emotions
Expressions embedded on her shiny like cage wings posed like death itself.

Love

Tenderly held some at arm's reach,
Closer to the pumping heart.
"Love is not selfish, it does not boast"
Lies our hearts were fed
I watched you intently
From solitude where I sat.
I analysed your selfish hand, hand pick left some at the door.
Out in the cold,
To die,
To whither like long forgotten roses.
Cries of fatigue hope
Tomented my soul to a neverending extent.
My tears turned to dust,
My loud cries into silence,
My very soul to ASHES.
Where is your mercy?
So much cruelty fate has played on me.

There's nobody like you
I've tried goodbye a hundred times, not one of them true
Nobody like you
I'm screaming " I don't want you"
But you know that I do.

Fear

" Let the voice, voice out the story that lives within you".
I wanted to give wings to the words that would liberate,
Dying souls out there.
The voice of reason, the power to mend every broken soul
I needed a piece of paper
To put these emotions to words.
I searched through time and beyond for that piece of paper.
Instead I stumbled upon a book,
Why a book?
Because clearly the story I had to tell lived beyond infinity,
Thus the paper wasn't enough.
Fear thawed out of my heart.
Lost in my own reveries only to realize that I had the book in my hand but the pen at my touch
The ink froze, dried up instantly and turned to dust.
From there on I knew I lacked courage thus why the story remained in the depth of my soul.

Bones of the mind

Beautiful thoughts laid peaceful in the depth of my mind.
Between the gate of the soul and the mind.
Thoughts screaming loudly, havoc reigned
Every word resonating, vibrating.
My heart at standstill instead of correcting the mind, calming the soul.
No comfort insight, I sought embrace in places slowly dying
Places of darkness stared coldly with nothing to offer me.
Are you the end? Or just here to end me?
Bones of the mind, you were once my solitude. Now my very own grave...

Broken

Love blindingly led me to a trap
A trap wrapped in beautiful luxuries
Dazzling, dancing with emotions, feelings I knew were for life.
With tender love, I loved, caress you to the bone,
With warmth I nurtured this love
Covered it with my wingly embrace
Why wouldn't I?
You were a dream, a neverending dream finally coming true
After sending thousand prayers
To thousand lifetimes
So long the years passed,
You gave me different eyes.
Love that once shined in my eyes started fading, a black eye, bruises decorated my face,
The work of your fist leaving traces of bitterness behind.
Trails of neverending tears became a regular occurrence
I cried with different pleas every night
Each night passed with pieces of me
Like leaves I went through all seasons,
I changed, I evolved, I became
You brutally abused me physically but the damage was greater
With every punch to my guts
Felt like a dagger to my soul
You killed my soul
The dead while leaving I became...

Broken

08/02/2021

I know you are wondering
Why am I here?
At this ungodly hour,
I couldn't sleep, why you may wonder?
But I Know you know.
Eyes staring into space,
Lost in my own reveries.
Dreaming of you, wide awake
Reminiscing on our memoirs,
Unraveling the passion deep within my soul.
Even the shadows of the soul
Couldn't liberate the flames of passion reminding me of our love. Like a moth to a flame
Here as I laid awake on my bed sending whispers of love to you,
With the intentions of nurturing
The delicate petals of our love.

Sweeter than memories

Dazzling pools filled with
emotions, gazed fiercely to
mine as if they were telling
me something.
I adored watching your soft
features, wondering how your
feather like breath would feel
on my skin,
almost like the rain drops melting
into the soil, Like a summer breeze
anticipated after a blazing day .
Scorching soothingly on
the burnt skin , I enjoyed
watching you after a long
exhausting day.
Who wouldn't? You lived in
pictures, memories as if
we've ever met before .
Every morning when the
sun rises I look forward to
the sunset where I know
we'd meet and yet again I'd be mesmerized by your beauty
as if I'm seeing you for the
first time. I pray you offer me
access to know you beyond
your soft features .

Broken dream

Figment of my imagination
That you've become.
Vision blurry, images unclear
Pieces scattered on the floor,
Each and every piece laid thoughtful on the floor,
With different stories to tell.
I cried with everything in me.

I sought comfort in the depth of my mind, with hope that in time our dream will mend only for it to shatter before my very own eyes. What becomes of a broken dream? I wondered.

Now I comfort myself with the
Idea that our love, our story, our dream will be lived and told in another lifetime .

Love undone

Oh, sweet beautiful soul
Like a forget me not ,
A flower plucked its petal
One by one they fell into the dusty land
Into the hands of it's creator
I watched it turn to ashes
Our love crashed and burnt
Beyond recognition,
What was once a beauty left in the crusty soil to whither .
They forgot one detail , you will be reborn
Nothing is greater than real love undone
'Cause it'll always find it's way back to our hearts.
And they'll know it lives in you, in me
Filling our hearts with undying passion.
