Coming Out-ish
I don’t know if I should be writing this. It scares me a whole lot to talk about myself. See, being a writer gives you a chance to write about your life, your successes and failures, your happiness and sorrows, your moments of clarity and those of disillusion. But I have always kept away from the idea of writing about myself. I don’t like people knowing much about me. Even family. I am not good…

Remember your Identity
I tripped on my fears today,
I thought I was watching my step,
Carefully walking in the path of light,
of enlightenment,
But I tripped on my fears today.
My heart skipped a beat today,
I saw a future without light,
A future with nothing but a sheeple society,
Buried deep in the deceit of tailored religion,
And my heart went silent.
I saw our past today,
A past that has been hidden from us,
A…

Scarred Beauty; Beautiful Scars
Scarred Beauty; Beautiful Scars
source: pinterest
Beautiful, but… breathtaking but…
Beautiful but scarred, breathtaking but flawed,
Perfectly imperfect and standing out in her weird-dom,
Have you seen how torn her perfect smile is?
Have to seen how dull her bright, blinding smile can become?
Have you felt the coarseness of her soft touch?
Has she pierced you with her petal-like words?
Beautiful, but… breathtaking but…

I Shot You in My Dreams
I Shot You in My Dreams
Source: http://www.gettyimages.com
Last night, I shot you,
When my heart beat silently,
As I took deep relaxing breaths,
I drew the gun.
And there you stood,
With a soft smile on your lips,
And your eyes shining like the dancing light above you,
You spread your arms, and smiled.
Carefully, I let the safety catch free,
And you drew a sharp breath as you heard it click,
Tonight, you’d taste my…

Do You Remember?
Now Playing: Michael Maas – Morpheus and the Dream (ft. Felicia Farerre)
Remember when my mind lost its music?
Remember when the beauty of words turned into binary digits?
With 0 being the absence of their colours and 1, the presence of this absence,
When the codes of my thoughts formed endless ‘while’ loops,
When ‘if else’ became redundant, returning the same result?
A music-less mind.
Remem…

Have you seen them?
source: http://ponti55.deviantart.com
I struck the chords today, but no music played.
The fingers of my thoughts touched every nerve in my brain,
Softly, they caressed them, stroked them,
Waiting for the music of ideas to permeate,
From the pulses and vibrations of the nerves, the music was to be heard.
Bu all I heard was, nothing.
I heard nothing.
In my barren mind, the desert winds blew,

Claim your Wonderland
Fear has gripped you,
You are never yourself anymore,
You conform to their expectation,
You let yourself down in every waking moment.
Shame has a tight grip on your dreams,
You don’t wanna live them and be called weird,
So you live and suffer in the shadows,
And build other people’s dreams instead of your own.
Haven’t you seen the wonderland in your mind?
The possibilities that lie beyond…

R.I.P David Higgs
When love births pain,
When pain births fear,
When fear dissolves into peace,
And peace into resolve.
The resolve to die, to rest.
Death gave you rest,
Death gave you life,
For you live through us.
Is it brighter there?
Is love realer there?
I know you no longer feel pain,
I hope you found peace.
You live on David,
You are…

Hold This Heart
Lying on my bed, looking at my hands,
Fingers spread out, I see yours intertwined with mine
Your scent lingers in my memory,
All I want is to see you again.
See, we’ve been through storms,
I soaked you in my pain,
You burned me with your struggles,
But still, here we are.
I know they told you not to wait,
She gone now, they…

Daylight,
Oh so bright was the sunlight,
She drew the curtain to her soul,
Like a vampire,
The light killed her slowly.
See, she was no saint,
A valedictorian in the school of pain,
She lived in the shadows,
For the bearers of the bright torch
Deemed her unworthy of its light.
So she hang in the shadows,
For the light was her jailer,
And the darkness her saviour,
And as the light faded from…

Dance in the Rain
The storm came down on me,
And like a child to a mum’s tit,
Clothes clutched on my skin,
Taking my heat with them.
My naked heart shivered in the cold,
Its protector, gone with the first sign of a storm,
Little girl in me, wanting to call for my mum,
Big girl in me, keeping my feet rooted to the ground.
Guard your heart child,
I told myself,
Give no one else that power,
Find completeness in…

Fill Your Cup
How can you love,
When you an emotional black hole?
How can you ground,
When your life has no anchor?
How can you make them smile,
When you cry yourself to sleep?
How can you calm,
When your life is a storm?
How can you mend,
When you are a mess and broken?
How can you hold a heart,
When yours bleeds through your hands?
To genuinely build others,
Start with yourself,
Just like you can’t…

Love, Live
Love,
Embrace love,
Always live for love,
Love for others, self love,
Let hate lose the battles and bow to love,
Let your heart burn with love, let it come alive,
Even in the pits of pain, find the will to live,
Scars on your temple and soul speak life,
Just as light penetrates through cracks,
Your scars will give you life,
Live love,
Love life,
Live life,
Live.

Lyrical Coffin
All my music is gone,
My babies are no more,
I went to my music folder,
Nothing.
I freaked out,
I got mad,
Now, I’m just sad.
Just sad.
4 years of careful collection and selection,
Gone.
I am distraught.
My babies are gone.

I'm Tired
I’m Tired
I’m tired, I’m drained,
Been thinking too much, my mind’s strained,
They tell me to be happy of the 20 steps I’ve made forward,
But I am too tired to smile.
I’m happy. Believe me I am,
2015 has been a year and half,
I have seen my strengths triumph over my weaknesses,
And I’ve seen grey clouds give way to sunny days.
But right now I feel tired,
I’m happy but I’m tired,
I want a breather.
