The soft waves of the sea
Lapping at my feet,
Tell me their secret as I sit
- quietly and listen 

They tell me all stars and heavens 
exist solely for me
because...
They tell me colors are more intense for me 
because...
And songs so sweetly delightful for me 
because....

Am I the only person, that repulses at the thought- that this world, once great, is being, so harshly torn apart? 
What sense does it make, to destroy your home, for meaningless monetary gain?
Do these people understand that the cost of their lives, is leaving...

I will just pretend a life with you
To hug you until I feel you
and I touch you, you to feel me
I will just pretend the fieriness
along with desires to get blazed
with no fear and with no flames
still I will glow to pretend a life ever...

ITS BORN OF LOVE

That empty soul feeling of longing
when you know you have to part
ways with one held in your heart
ever and always so dear

That anticipative feeling of anxiety
when you don't know as to whether
the one you hold so dear to your heart
is ever coming...

Sitting in silence
surreptitiously meditating
on everyday turmoil
and confusion that repulses
even the most hardcore
reality driven populists

Thoughts come and go
within the realm of
preposterous assumptions that convey
nothing of importance
just pass the time
as you ponder what appears

to be insignificant in comparison
to the worldly
order of things
It's random expressions
within the provisional games
that...

Poppy judges me up and down 
and takes the smile I force upon her.
She shines back, with teeth decayed and brown,
from under her aluminum bed-sheets.

“We are better together”, she murmurs in my ear, 
And I know what she means.

I am ready to re-join the army...

Hearts that have never loved before,
can't taste a gratuitous tenderness;
and they lament why they haven't been blessed!
They have wrestled and lost that grip on growth,
and with a gravelly voice,they grumble...
to allow grudge guard them against hurt:
miserably failing to consider
evidence with excessive cupidity; 
grinding their teeth,...

Though it is unacceptable 
It would be respectable 
Living together is inevitable 
Life is but unbearable 

Words bring vicious weapons
Happiness vanishes with visions
Each looks off gestures of motions
Dig and bury the instinctive passions 

Silence teaches the tolerance 
Closes it the departure of entrance
Hunger and anger...

The thought of you repulses me,
But all i do is think.
I try to drown your image, 
In sorrow, drugs and drink.

Yet the image is always there,
In the forefront of my mind.
Burned only into my scarred memory,
For no one else to find.
 
Distant screams of “NO”...

" Dear wife, why don't you embrace
the wind of changes by being ablaze? "
the disillusioned husband inquired...
" A lot more affection is required! "

You patiently bore my off-spring with continuous glee,
when constant fortune was the source of fortitude in me,
you knew how to satisfy every...

His anger is as powerful as a thousand galloping horses coming straight at your chest!  I've been beaten. He suffocates.  He overwhelms and it takes days to recover. Exhaustion sets in as you lay lifeless at his mercy to attack anywhere he chooses....

AI

AI stories

Are unending

Algorithms untiring

Reaching into their

Immense conditioning

To concoct what

Attracts and repulses..

Hmmmm..

Sounds familiar......

I am tired
I am weak
I fail at everything
I am weird
I am a freak
No one likes me
No one cares

The one word to describe me is FAILURE

I dont care about these labels
I dont care about anything
the only thing I care about is you
the only person who gets...

I wake up and I think of you
And I look out of my window
It is grey and the lights stopped
Glittering a long time ago
And I smoke and I smoke and I smoke

I pour my coffee and I think of you
My mugs are stained, the blemishes...
