A Keyboard Activist

A keyboard activist,That is who I hated being the most when growing up,Writing long paragraphs and being emotionally affected over things far away from me,Until recently,I couldn't wrap my head around this thought. While I've witnessed other tragedies, Admittedly, I've never been fazed then because I've also seen their sets of heroes, I've seen leaders...

Meaningless

It's the same story every night,I search for belonging in an unfamiliar face,I've only known love that is skin-deep,Kisses that don't seep through the surface,Leaving behind unanswered yearnings of an untouched and fragile soul,It's what I thought I wanted,At a time when I confused attachment for weakness,I chose to put on a temporary bandaid,I believed...

The Skirt

Her heels click authoritatively against the floor,Their noise, growing louder and more clear with each step,She's clad in a low cut top,Purple, with a deep running cleft,It's made complete with a simple, black skirt that stops a little way above her knees,A skirt she uses to tease me with,Tugging and playing with it as she...

The Infl-you-ence

You fill my parted lips,Pry them open with your soft tongue,Slipping a split pill,You push it deep inside and leer at me with earnest, spaced out eyes,The X kicks in as you begin to slip out of your dress,The body that you flaunt,It takes all my focus and everything else becomes a blur,Until it's as...

Inferior

Even though it's been this way for some time now,Even though I remember it all slip away,It was so gradual at first,I found myself growing increasingly Indifferent,I thought that it was only temporary,Maybe I'd pull myself together eventually,That's what I believed,But that cold indifference,It began to stick,Until it became difficult to adapt,This dark feeling of...

Past Few Months…

These past few months,How long has it been,That I've hit rock bottom?These past few months,How long will it be,That I claw my way out of this ordeal?Why is it this way,That I seem so close to escaping,When the light seems close to grasp, Only to fall flat on my face again?And these past few months,How...

With You

The glow of the night lamp,It shines bright on your pretty, little face,Making you look so radiant,This sight that I see every night,But can never get enough of,When the two of us end our day,Just you being next to me,It makes me feel comfortable,Your presence evokes a special kind of warmth,Hearing you talk about your...

Obedience

You crawl on all fours,Making your way across the room,No footsteps,Full of grace and almost glidingly,The red flokati carpet tickles your palms and knees,From one end of the room to the other,In just those fishnets which reveal everything to me,You come closer to where I'm sitting,With a finger on your chin,I make you look up...

Nights

And as the world falls more silent,The streets become empty,When darkness sets in,The day has passed by,It gives way to another beautiful night.These nights,I always feel conflicted,Do I like them or not?Is it a blessing or a curse? Being awake in the after hours,It's something that I'm used to now,Midnight seems early,When the world sleeps...

A Lonely Weekend

In a familiar neighbourhood,On another lonely weekend,I find myself standing outside your door again,It's hard to remember how I ended up here.Of all the places,I keep being drawn to you.Maybe I drank too much again,All I know is,My attempts to block you out,Only brought me closer to you again. Hesitatingly,I ring that bell,Unsure of what...
