The Lady
Up on the ceiling, there were cobwebs untouched,
and hair strands on the dusty corners of the room.
I could smell medicine, probably from the vibrant syrup bottles stacked inside the cupboard.
Few black and white frames hung on the wall,
As if time was wrapped inside them.
A certain melancholy transcended the space, mellowed and calm.
Then she entered the room.
Neither the serene white strands in a neat bun nor the wrinkles dimmed her beauty.
But what did elevate her face was the warm smile she had.
Which made me think, solitude is certainly what you want it to be.
What do I want from here?
Maybe one day I can listen to the thousand memories of those photos on the wall,
Maybe one day I can hang a bright-hued frame of us beside them.

12 0World full of sinners
And you think you're a Saint?
Clean hands and peace of mind!
Aren't you kidding me in your dead faint?
Red eyes are real
Turbulence is real
Count on your chaos
Before they get on the wheels
Lightspeed with a numb mind
We want it , we try it
But we're too blind
Blind to see if our heart wants it or our brain.
Hands down!
Your head's a sinner
Your heart's the trigger
Play it wise , play it clear
Play it true before truth plays you
Try your hard but all in vain
Because a world full of sinners
Won't see you as a Saint

From the Past
And then I turned a beautiful page from the past,
Adorned with the innocence of first love, and
Scented with the glee of nostalgia.
It had faded scribbling I no longer recognized,
Aged ink stains scattered as the dreams I once had,
Beautiful yet forgotten you are, my love.
You were the thing of my past,
I will cherish the memories that remain.
One day even that might disappear, without guilt I would say that.
But I will always remember the untethered feelings,
And our beautiful friendship etched in golden, that would never fade.

I found myself
lost in depths
of an ocean
where numerous thoughts,
of mine were born.
All I knew was,
that I was lost
bewildered,
and searching,
for an answer
to a question I asked
to myself one day
that who's the most vigorous being
I've met till date
I kept thinking and thinking
until the moment
I could finally comprehend
I had found my answer long ago
when my eyes and the mirror first met
Not only did this realization hit me
But also did I get greeted by the fact
that there was never going to be anyone else
stronger in my journey
than who it belonged to
and whom I had first started it with.
The curiosity in me
made my insecure self realize
The one that i was
in search of
was with me
right by my side
protecting me
in every phase
that i had been through
because it was 'me'
being my protector
and my guardian angel
all this time.
I went through fire
and emerged stronger
than ever from ashes
which were meant to be
the symbol of my destruction
in mine and everyone else's memory.
What was meant to symbolize
the termination of my journey
and be seen, remembered
as the remain of my existence
became the milestone
of my survival story.
The believer in me
held my hand
which is what kept
reminding my broken soul
to keep repairing
to keep healing
to keep working
to keep glowing
and not entirely fall apart
or give up
in the haze of
my fragile heart
I went through it
and fought it all,
because i was with me
when nobody else was.
My heart kept beating
and I kept breathing
because both of us
possessed the courage
to instigate
in us, the fire of conquering
our deepest fears
in the depth of suffering
regardless of how
it may turn out
or decide to live on
in the rest of our memories.
My challenges did not give up
and nor did I
which is why
my scars now speak
of my willpower and bravery
that cannot be denied.
It was until my victory
that the sight of my scars left me afraid
Once i won, however,
everything that reminded me of pain
had changed.
It was only
after I won,
that my scars to me
became a propitious symbol.
and this realization
was welcomed
by the fighter in me
with a warm smile
on my face
as i stood firm
with a heart full of belief.

A piece of poetry that talks about the journey of a girl realizing how strong she has always been but never really paid heed to it and when she did, everything changed.

yellow butterfly, flutter on, flutter on,
on, on out of my life!
àlọ lámilámi làá rí…
let this be the end of what never began,
a continuation of nights spent alone;
nights i shielded myself from cold’s claws
with erotic thoughts as blanket.
roll up this mat of memories,
balance it on your head as you go.
leave me,
cease to trouble me with the dilly-dally
of your wings; your ways.
here,
let these lines
be what you will remember me by.
yellow butterfly, flutter on, flutter on,
as your wings open and close,
think of me
for i think of you.
always.

yellow butterfly, flutter on, flutter on;
in your wake, memories of moments shared.
it’s weeks now since that encounter,
yet it all still returns to me
ushered in
by shawn hlookoff’s she could be you,
finding its way to my lips.
it comes out croaky, coated in the cold
that froze my lips —
i should have told you
how I felt; what you did to me —
i let it out, a sigh of what could have been;
olúfúnmilọ́lá, we could have been!

yellow butterfly, flutter on, flutter on,
on towards me on this side of the sea.
a discourse with you aboard.
the emcee's introduction of you
you spurted the sparks;
i caught the fire from your eyes,
in an endearing lock that dared
me to look away.
your speech, spun
intelligently from your spool of words,
roped me into a web of your worship.

yellow butterfly, flutter on, flutter on,
let your lithe wings rest on these lush lawns.
dim was the room.
a toss of your hair;
the genesis of light. and lighted ambience:
your radiance
mingled with everyone’s breath.
àṣá was in the air. you floated along. i trailed
picking up pace with the inspiration spiralling from your lips.
a scowl on your face parted my lips;
for once a puckered brow looked beautiful.
©lil_allawonder6 0pplaidshirt 114w
Facing the stars in the biting cold
Recalling all those stories you told.
Each breath heavier than the last
falls as mist on that wine glass.
The ghost of your touch
still lingering in the air.
Your lips on mine,
hands tangled in the hair.
The breathy voices whispering,
Yours trying to leave
Mine begging you to stay.
I promise I had gotten over it.
It was the wind that carried me away.

Tale of a sunset with no twilight.
In this soliloquy let me step up and take you through a different page
A tale that exemplifies a dufus like me and her as a sage.
It's been seven months and those moons all surpassed like a dripping drop
Of water or of pain ? It cannot be equated even by this life's cop.
Yeah, he also signified that" this is just a momentary tenet kid, you'll know how to move on"
I admire his efforts, but,maybe he doesn't know that my Diana is long gone.
The Diana! One of a pure heart, a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious smile , who had courtesy to break some shell
And yeah buddy, after that, every night's been like a fragment of hell.
"Smile", that's how i painted her virtues, thanks to a peep of mine who taught me that
But it's of no use because I guess all she did with that pretty face was just spat.
Things are getting too melancholy in here!" my heart shrieks
But don't worry man, this, I guess it happens with some geeks."
However amidst this tale one thing the guy lost- his individuality
And treats now everything like same imposter with equality.
Here I take a leave, got some things to settle down
And I leave here with an apology to everyone , whom my xenophobic life posed as a jester or a clown.
Sorry guys!
©arandomguysblog5 0"Who's there behind the curtain? "
Stumbling a bit here and a bit there
Look at her limbs they move like a water's drain.
The one with crooked smile also peeks at her with a flare.
""Without me" Of hasleys to the one of Eminem's
I can scorch towards her shadow while eating M&M's"
"And in this dark and perilous world "I'll stand for her"
My conscience speaks like a grimming cat's pur.
But it could happen again like a living deja vu
Bud this pit is limitless unlike your 'Bud's' woo.
Mark yourself, stiff your heart,and march like the lone wolf on ground
Because as you said kid ,in this perilous world there are many alike pretentious hound.
They leap around like a dove with some cherubims
And feed upon our soul with villainous grims.
Yes ,no pity, no abdication from falsehood
They'll rob your happiness like the Robin under a hood.
So flee from this misty play of treachery
As far as you can my bud, and don't look back even out of misery.
For you are a precious little soul who can easily be deceived like a fly in that spider's web
And this convo is your only escapism from her mayhem's ebb.

@damer2406 @tengokuQuestions
Why did you love me!?
Why did you care!?
Do you miss the way,
You run your fingers through my hair!?
Do you still love me!?
The way I loved you!?
Do you still believe,
That you could say 'i do'!⁉️
Why is it hard to move on!?
Why don't I see, now you're gone!?
Why don't I trust, you'll get another girl!?
Who will treat you like her own wide world.
Questions are many;
Stuck on my head;
Will the answers for them all,
Be left unsaid!!?

#chained
I know
It's the high time
To let go
And move ahead in life
But
One of my leg is chained
With the fear of losing you
And other
With the liability
That we were once madly in love
©rittujoshi15 2 1- vickyprashant_srivastava Fear of loosing.. always dreadful

Sea song
The sea has stopped singing its songs
coiling itself into an eternal halt
the sky peers at it hopelessly
watching it turn into a giant ball of water,
darkness arrives shrouding the ball
and this is how I am,
a sea drowned in itself...

Ramblings..
Lets see now,
What do i gotta say to you..
I'll be honest from the get go,
I've been lying to you and me both.
Truth be told,
You're the one I wanna hold;
In my arms till we grow old.
And i just cannot ignore,
These flames that burn me cold..
Your love is confusing but bold,
Loud and makes itself known..
So no matter how hard i try,
I just cannot hide,
Behind friendly smiles,
With each passing night,
My facade grows weaker inside..
Do i want you to realize?
Or do i want to let it all slide?
Who knows.. i just want to be your life,
For the rest of my life..

Want 'em Back..
When they ask,
Of the best days; I've ever had,
I'll look back,
Back to the times,
Of you and I.
Of the laughter-filled nights,
And the stupid, childish fights.
Of those coffee tables where we sat,
And all those talks we ever had.
Of the dreams; where we make it big,
And of our never-ending friendship.
And all those castles, are now but sand,
But those were the best times i ever had.
And God knows, how bad I want them back.

Last Night on Earth
and we sit below the sky
as the sun dips down and goes to sleep,
and we know it won't wake up,
not this time,
and though we ache to feel it just once more,
we remember its touch on our skin,
we breathe it in, taste the cold night air,
and sink into the wide open stars
cradling this world like a palm with
frail, loving fingers still holding on
until the last breath comes,
and we wait,
immersed in stories that seem to stretch time -
our echoes won't ever fade.

Ember's Wings
Sunset
Set me free
Rainbow of Firelight
They pushed me away
You told me to stay
I became as one with you
Colors like coal
My mind ablaze
A spark that lights my soul
Smoke, fire, ashes
I'm in love with the sky
I'll abandon the world
On ember's wings I'll fly
©rowanrook9 0rowanrook 217w
Pages
Fall into pages,
where time stretches on unbound -
thrive through endless lives.
©rowanrook9 0Your Stars
Each breath you swallow,
fans the flames within you,
burning white like the sun.
You are a spark
in the great black void -
insignificant,
yet your shine reaches for light-years.
This world is damp and cold,
its breath a wind
beating against your candle,
its blood an ocean,
swirling around you
with each pulse of its heart.
Hold your fire tight -
and search the skies for your stars
- don’t let it go out.
