The Love That Died
I’ll never forget when we first met
Fireworks lit up the dark night skies
As I held you tightly in my arms
I could see the love in your eyes
With you my world finally felt whole
I believed your love would be my last
Our life together was that of dreams
But all good

GEESE WITH MOON ON THEIR WINGS-Wings of Farewell
GEESE WITH MOON ON THEIR WINGS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
gentle autumn breeze murmurs
summer’s farewell song
geese with moonlight on their wings
in flight and headstrong
across stellar sky
their honks a gentle refrain
never asking why

The Real You
Maybe it is not fair,
that I have been
clinging to an idea of you—
because maybe
the real you—tempered between
my fits of desires and invention—
carries less music,
walks a busier street,
is too mundane—too prosaic
to haunt me the way
my dreams cruelly
reimagine you.

My Final Adieu
I look at the mirror in total disgust
And I hate the Man looking back at me
There’s not a thing I like about him
He’s worthless as far as I can see
I hate myself for the things I’ve done
And I hate myself for the things I’ll do
To be honest, I’d be better off dead
That’s the

How To Disappear Without Dying
Step one
Smile like stitches not for joy
Just tight enough to hold you in
The kind of smile that never aches
But keeps your mouth from spilling
Step two
Speak after everyone has left
Let words fall where no one looks
Your voice belongs to empty rooms
Where no one asks or stays too long
Step three
Move quiet through morning fog
Become the blur behind

The Last Five Senses '2
By~Krish
The wind arrived without warning
its cold fingers lifted him
like paper from my hands.
He dissolved,
like ink in water.
The tulips crumbled into ash
that danced away
before it could touch the ground.
The earth tilted beneath me
and I fell.
When my eyes opened,
I was somewhere else.
The sun was too bright,
its heat warped by a crowd
gathered in a trembling circle.
At their center,
a

El Mismo Abismo Destructivo Bolso
Pálida, quedará la Luna
por tú decepción.
Pero alumbrara aún
está y las mil
noches que vengan.
Se filtrara por la persiana
de la alcoba.
El árbol, copozo de
mango y hojas verdes
que alimentado
siempre a los dos
por la sequía
de tu ausencia
no sé desplomara.
Tus pertenecías
junto a postales
con Rosas secas y
poecia q ardía de pasión,

Ex's
A smeared reflection
mirrors off my memory,
of her
and how she took
2 hours every morning
to paint, draw, brush, curl and spray
H
her appearance on.
But she could not even
make up
2 minutes of breakfast chatter.
Miming herself to me.
Thank God for windex.

Shiver
In another life, we were.
I hope you found
what you are looking for.
Is it too late?
Don’t turn around.
Here and everywhere,
I remember you.
In the summer wind,
what once was.

Days alone
Days Alone
Here I stayed
when the silence broke—
the air, a breath
that barely woke me.
Your name lit up my phone,
but the meaning felt long gone.
I cried alone
to feel the sorrow,
a night too dark
to hold tomorrow.
The rain stood still,
in borrowed time,
each drop a pause
in my decline.
Soft, endless,
unheard—I spoke.
The truth was raw,
my voice near broke.
No comfort came,
no hand to

Love That Left Without Goodbye
There are two days I know
Yesterday and today
Yesterday laid the cross I bear
Cross I dared not to wear
Forever we stay, they say,
But the thorns stares away
In the pasture last known to stray,
Cradle land, a means to an end
Forgive me if I stray to forever land
For my kin, I bared my soul to

Darkest day
A Story of Santosh that was entangled in grief
It was just another day, he thought
He stepped out of the house with his family to return
Unaware of the danger awaiting at the accident spot
He and his wife, children went out jolly, talking about
They got onto the bike and went for a ride as usual
Oh,

Heavenly Home
Where did you go
Where have you gone
Please tell me you will be back
You won’t be long
Or are you in your little cottage
Above the clouds in the sky
A place where love and contentment
Are always in full supply
Where colourful flowers forever bloom
Music and laughter are blissfully heard
The sun always shines
Kindness is the unwritten word
Where pure joy surrounds

Heavenly light new song version
An end of life prayerful song!
Heavenly Light
Dark days have come....
my life is ending
My days are numbered...
but, I'm unafraid
I have no regrets...
except I must leave her
My days are numbered...
but, I'm unafraid
So don't you worry,
don't fret about me...
I'll always be with you...
in your...memory
Chorus
Heavenly light...shine down upon me
Shine on my pathway...to eternity
Oh Heavenly light...shine down upon me

The boy who wasn’t picked
He sits in the back.
Not because he wants to—
but because he’s tired
of being picked last
when he dares to show up at all.
You don’t see him.
Not really.
He’s there, though—
in the bathroom stall during lunch,
because his gut’s staging a protest.
IBS, the silent screamer,
writhing beneath his ribs
like worms made of fire.
They say, “It’s probably just nerves.”
As if nerves
