Her and I have never coexisted in the same timeline.
So why do I miss her warmth,
Her scent,
Her embrace,
Her smile?
I miss her more than words could explain.
I miss her very being,
As if we were inseparable—
Yet I've never even met her.
Not even once.
Being the first can be a lonely role.
So perhaps I yearn for her presence because, if she were here,
She would relieve me of this crown forced upon my head.
I yearn to be called her little sister,
Even if it meant she had to carry the crown
And bear the role of being The First.
I am selfish. I know.
But my yearning for an older sister's love
Is greater than my selflessness.
I would gladly settle for the middle—
The forgotten—
If it meant I no longer had to bear the crown of The First.
For once,
I want to be the comforted
And not the comforter.
But in this lifetime,
She and I will never coexist in the same timeline.
For the universe deemed she was too good for this world,
And I...
I became the rightful heir
To the crown of The First.
It’s funny how
I play both sides,
hoping for bonds.
Looking for friendly feelings
from those who
are not friends at all.
My opinions wallow,
trying to create smiles,
hoping to find worthiness,
from places
that are empty and hollow.
I am a mole in a dark alley,
where I operate quite well,
my sensory navigation is so adebt
making all laugh and giggle.
I though,
have a clown grin,
which is upside down,
processing my daily rituals,
from the dark underground.
I thought we were friends, I thought we were close,
In laughter and secrets, we’d share the most.
But whispers turned bitter, like shadows at noon,
My sister's cruel words, like a dark, heavy tune.
I never thought I would ever lose you,
Thought bonds were unbreakable, steadfast and true.
But you joined in the laughter, turned away from the light,
Now memories linger, haunting the night.
I didn’t think you would hate me, it cuts like a knife,
Once filled with joy, now echoes of strife.
What happened to trust, to the dreams that we shared?
Now I stand here alone, feeling lost and impaired.

Construction terminology limits interaction and
Obstinate theory considered heating
Cursory exam investigates
Finance
While article confides in history
Another letters still
Placement of interaction causes excess time?

Only resolved in exposure to smaller liens

What Makes You Feel
friendship shattered, bonds fractured, my heart languishes …
''Our strong bonds are eternal,'
they are never loose links...
pulsating rhythm of before and after,
happiness in total confidence
perfect harmony and light
intense duet like Nirvana
"pleasure in maximum height"
Beneath the stars, where endless whispers play,
Our spirits wove a bond that time can't sever.
Through lifetimes past and futures' fleeting sway,
We've found each other, always and forever.
Your eyes, twin galaxies that pierce the night,
Unlock the chaos nestled in my core.
With every glance, they bathe my heart in light,
And teach me how to love myself once more.
Each breath you take becomes my sacred vow,
Each heartbeat sings a tune that's only ours.
Entwined through space, through time, through here and now,
We blossom like the universe in flowers.
If fate should tear us from this world apart,
We'd find each other still, through soul and heart.
Sky looks beautiful with clouds
azure skyscape impressive though,
starlit sky illumines forests of night.
Short or long, verdant shade soothes
a tree, single or in clusters pleases.
A spring or meandering stream
carries trillions of pooled droplets
yet, a drop of water slakes thirst.
Flowing water-ways jubilantly join
emerge finally as a mighty river.
Uncles, aunts, grandparents cared
children loved lullabies, stories told
enjoying every moment of the phase.
Parents happily shared and cared for all
a family stood firm as a vast empire.
A radiant planet may mesmerize
yet, constellations overwhelm all,
galaxies tantalize faraway humanity.
Segregation slices, roam rootless
self-centered folks rudderless!
My friend
My friend
where did you go
And how long
Have i been gone
where is the friend
Once i have known
The one that showed me
A friendship so strong
He opened his arms
His heart and his home
He was always there
To keep me from wrong
For years and years
I searched and i rome
Hunting for the friendship
Oh that i for long
lost now and all alone
No longer am I headstrong
Oh please my friend
I can no longer go on
Without you my friend
I just don't belong
We must rebuild unbreak
and rebend
The unbreakable Bond
Between two friends
This is my plea to make admends
Help me regain
The strength you infringed
In my heart and my soul
Help me refill the big gaping hole
So I may finally be once again whole
In your heart
Is where I belong
My friend
My friend
The memories still simmer
My friend
My friend
Do you remember
The Friend in Me
Once you have known
Eros-Philia-Ludus,
Pragma!!!
Valence released,
We are like atomic bonds,
And I am the Squared Hydrogen,
She's the Oxygen.
Held up together in the field,
She breathes life into me.
And liquid as we flow,
Solid we remain just equivalent.
Questions may often arise,
As to just how far they can reach?
Where the bonds between two may
Be tested, before they are able to teach.
Early on, it's seen through our childhood,
When we endlessly search for that elusive best friend.
While we playfully mimic our adult mentors,
Only to eventually see it all as pretend.
Delving deeper, there's a constant barometer,
Piercing to gauge one's level of loyalty.
And regardless of commitment or integrity,
It's easy to think that they confused it with royalty.
What is known about these binding influences,
Relies heavily upon the truth in between.
Such that these ties can be strengthened or weakened,
By what's believed and trusted pristine.
In childhood days of laughter and play,
Side by side, we'd dance and sway.
Siblings bound by love so true,
Together in all that we'd pursue.
Through schoolyard antics and homework woes,
We'd face each challenge, our bond still grows.
Hand in hand, we'd face the tide,
With strength in unity, we'd never hide.
But as time flies on swift wings,
Life's changes bring new beginnings.
Work and school, they call our names,
Drawing us apart like different games.
Yet distance cannot break the ties,
That bind our hearts under azure skies.
For memories woven in childhood's embrace,
Forever hold us in their grace.
Though paths may lead us far apart,
The love we share will never depart.
Through marriages and life's grand schemes,
We'll cherish the bond of sibling dreams.
So let us treasure each fleeting day,
And hold dear the memories that stay.
For no matter where our journeys roam,
We'll always find our way back home.
On supposedly eternal shore,
steps purposefully wander as they did before not long ago
when existence swoop with the bow over strings-
its created harmony an unseen, camouflaged racket-
where trampled and washed sand
allowed more human traces - inexperienced and confident -,
unlike the possessive waves and foam
who's stones shall not be tainted by the joyful rays or incarnadine.
Memories, new chains, recall
a suave voice and an uncertain ( expected ardous), yet determined one
piercing the darkness; when torment inside and out
covered minuscule, clingy fragments of hope/optimism;
where rusty vision scrutinized distant gas spheres, contemplating.
When chocolate eyes gazed at the timid orb hiding its ablazed cheeks into azure - familiar scenery, unexpected mise-en-scène -
let an suppressed thought take over: they'll never witness nature's paintings again.
My roommate, so kind and true,
Understands my feelings, knows them through.
When I'm down, a hug she lends,
Eases chores, she's my helping friend.
Enjoying each other, we share a space,
Her hug's a home, a sweet embrace.
Calmly calming when anger's near,
She knows the trick crystal clear.
Miss her loads, as we part our way,
Best roommate ever, let me say.
