"I’m Still Here, And I Will Shake You" I’ve walked roads you wouldn’t whisper about. Where shadows don’t follow, they lead. Where the air tastes like sorrow and the silence presses like a loaded gun against your temple at 3 a.m. The dirt remembers me. It groans where I nearly gave up, where the weight of my own breath felt like betrayal. You want real? Not...

Sleepless nights keep piling up. Always in a foul mood, I poison myself with nicotine, caffeine, ethanol, and cannabinoids. I live like a hedonist with suicidal urges. I won’t bequeath my body to science. The wreck will be too battered by my twilight. One life, one ride—no concessions, no compromise. I'm on alert, constantly in crisis mode. I sleep with the windows open,...

The sheer curtains dance Casting shadows on the wall From the open window A gentle breeze whispers its call. The hum of a fan Sings a soulful song Breaking the silence That trapped me so long. Minutes turn to hours Hours turn to days The healing is lost In a foggy haze. I hide in the dark Afraid to live Succumbing to the anger The...

Thirty years ago, my life fell apart/ I became fallen and forgotten/ All my friends abandoned me/ For years, those tears poured/ All those tears formed an ocean/ For a crime I never committed/ For all I lost in life/ My religion is different/ I face religious hatred for years/ My faith is unwavering/ My heart is unwavering/ I face so much hate in my life/ I...

He watches peacefully as people walk past; Quarrelling siblings, loving couples. He sits there as he has done for years but nobody knocks. Wearily the old man turns and watches his friends' faces in the...

At first, I thought I deserved it— because fear stole my words before...

Is it easy to look back on the trauma of past It’s like taking the knife out my back It cuts going both ways creating path Oh but we cried oh but we laughed Little girls playing with dolls in the basement Unaware of monsters and dangers that cement The innocence taken and breaking me within He was in his teens I...
