Past, present...

Making new memories
But the past is daunting
Gathering dust in the mind
But sometimes it is just as haunting

Raindrops, a piece of music, a random smell
Can take you to heaven and hell
Is someone left behind
Intertwined

Silent laughter, faceless smile
This is how Death smells like

Rain memories

The whisperings of flies
Reminded me of you
While I was on a hike

Suddenly my thoughts were flooded
With you mumbling in my ear
The annoyances were softly replaced
By the sweet nothings in the atmosphere

I wanted to remember the feeling
Of how it felt with you by my side
But the thought of it
Brought tears to my eyes

I hid my sadness behind the rains
Like nothing had happened
There wasn't a speck on my face

Remember to forget

Oh how I want to remember and forget you at the same time
Add a little something here and delete the rest of the line
How can two people be strangers again
a diamond not be a treasure but a stone that hurts and pains


My thoughts always wander back to you
like they love to play the same old broken tune
Is it my heart’s way of forgetting you?
Or just another one of those random blues


I hate to let you go
but sometimes that is the only solution the heart knows
In some days, months or years
All these thoughts would disappear
Only then the heart will be free
There will be no we
There will be only me

Company

There are days of solitude
When I need company
There are days of silence
When I need music

It isn't as often
But those days are Pandemonium
Of madness, of wanting to be alive
Of wanting to be wanted
Those random days of happiness
That want to be shared

Naked

What do you do when all the layers are removed
When everything is bare and open
When you realise what is really left is nothing
And you have to survive in this nothingness for eternity
And there isn't a solution

Enough

Not loved enough
Not kissed enough
Not hugged enough
Not seen her enough
Not listened enough
Not laughed enough
Not lived enough

The heart knows what it wants

The soul longs for a connection
Between the mind and body
Everything else is just a distraction

Changing forms till it doesn't ache anymore
The heart always knows what it wants
The happiness of someone doesn't mean the grief of another
It's just the loss of love
that cannot always be endured

Darkness

Darkness so heavy that a ray of light contaminates it
Shadows cannot enter, the black doesn't show any signs of grey
The whites get engulfed
It gets roasted like it never existed
Burnt to ashes, turned to dust
Its meaning lost, it disappears like it never existed
And is so subtly gone that one wonders
If there ever was life...If there ever was white
It acquires all it covers
Makes it a part of itself
The Magentas, the yellows, the reds..Those awesome looking fellows
They can't fight, they have no power, they have no right
The dark only emboldens, it grows stronger, mightier...
mightier than the sword,
Mightier than the pen that writes this prose
While I look for words to end
I hear none, I see none
The darkness dissolves it all
