The boy from my 5 classes again
Sometimes he’s next to me. Close enough that the air feels different, like something charged is sitting between us. My stomach does that thing, tightens, flutters, not because I like him, not like that. It’s more like my body recognizes something I don’t have the words for. Some part of me is on edge, like...

No More Dignity
I want... Well- It's just- like... Oh, give me some decency. Don't tell me to tell you what I want when you won't even tell me how you feel. Don't expect me to do all of the lifting, it is both of our responsibilities. Don't let this fall on me, to tell you what I think when you won't even tell me...

The Subtitle : I am woman: Request
I am woman: Request? I am woman. What does this mean? Am I the lesser for it? Should I stand up for my Self? How will I live? Or die? Or grow old? Will I lose my teeth? Or my muscle mass? Will I lose my mind? Perhaps I should lose my anger... I'm angry at women- For letting me dumb down. For impeding my growth. As a...

I read your journal
Reading your words, your poems, your feelings, it makes me hurt more than any physical beatings, it was a glimpse in your mind, all your madness, I read about your love, heartbreak and sadness, I see a glimpse of your broken past, all the pain and aching you didn't broadcast. I understand now, why you are the way you are, why...

The mere mention of boogies or snot made my dear old mom gag on the spot. She'd cry out, "Bill, Jen, Steve! Stop it! I’m gonna heave! Of course, promptly stop it ~ we did not. ...

Premium Member The Shadow Dwellers
Emerging from my teens I had a head full of ghosts to escape from - inhabitants of an inner world I kept to myself. Future life was over there, at the end of a train line, a long road, the last port of call on a ship's long voyage. I could never get far enough away - they always found me hiding...

Was I Wrong?
I chose myself over her... Was i wrong? I wanted it to end, altogether... Was i wrong? There comes a sense of impending doom, sooner or later, For the better, we turned lovers to haters... Was i wrong? 'Was i wrong?' is what I'm stuck at, Can't find someone to answer it all... 'Am i wrong?' is what is bugging me, Nobody on the other...

Trapped in My Mind
In the depths of my soul, Is a longing to feel whole, All i have is this pain, The tears and screams in vain. Beyond the reaches of time, All i have is my rhyme. This useless brain, Harbours all the pain. No one can ever know how much I’ve tried, Through the tears that I’ve cried, I know I’m tired, But my brain will always...

My end
It’s always: “why do you talk so much?” When I hardly speak at all. It’s always: “why are you so careful?” Because I’m afraid of the fall. It’s always: “why’re you so dramatic?” When I just need a friend. It’s always: “Yeah she’ll be fine” Until they see my end....

But why did my mother faint?
Mangoes, golden and full, their scent~ a whispered promise of mischief. My mother’s eyes, wide as warning bells. "Where did you get these?" Her voice, a blade slicing the air. Silence, a held breath. Five minutes, five hours, an eternity suspended. "Were you alone?" The question, a thread pulled loose, unraveling the fabric of innocence. "No, Mum." The words, a hesitant confession. My classmates, a chorus of laughter, the...

I See The Way You Look At Me
I see the way you look at me. I see the anger in your eye, When my gorgeous caramel skin walks by. I see the way you look at me. I see the way you look at me. How the rage vibrates your skin, When my beautiful body walks in. I see the way you look at me. I see the way you...

Colours!
Those are the colours. Which binds together, and then A beautiful background is formed. Which mesmerizes people. Which blends together And forms an Amazing shade Which is then visible to us. Whatever the shade is It has never made itself unattractive. And we still have a fondness for it. Because it's a piece of art. Humans are also kind of shades. Who are unique in...
