Ghosts
There’s something in the night that she fears.There’s something in its silence that torments her.There comes the rain, it terrifies her moreThe raindrops feel like needles pricking her torn heart.

Memory Lane
In this nameless street where sorrow and joy meetWith a tempestuous mind and unsteady heartbeat Quite dull and feeble, battered with exhaustionI walk still very unable to contain my emotion. Traipsing down on memory lane perhaps,Recollection of the gleeful past perhaps,Though wearisome as it may seem, I mustWalk along, rest if need be, but I mustn’t stop.But,…

The Road To The West
I’m in the middle of the roadThat to the East, there, to the WestWhich road must I chooseWhen I often think I am lost?Must I take the road to the westMaybe I’ll find peace and solace,There in the land of the dead,There in that forgotten land,Maybe I could rest.This exhaustion is gnawing at mePerhaps it’s…

Nameless Street
Took the ride off to the countrysideEven without you by my sideStill hoping you’d meet me somewhereBut you were never there.Sadly, I couldn’t see you aroundYou were nowhere to be found.I was alone, lost and torn andTears cascaded like waterfalls.My knees gave up, down I knelt.Hopes flew, courage did melt.Might better be numb, thought I.Might…

Bullying, not a fiction
“Hey, dork!” I think this sounds familiarLike the “Hey, ugly duckling!” that’s quite vulgar.“You’re not good enough!” So and so…But I got used to it. So, what’s new? How many tears have I shed soaking my pillow?But I couldn’t cry out loud, I silently wallow.How many times I wished death to take me?Perhaps misfortune graced…

Bullying: a reality, not poetry
At daytime, it hunts me like a stalker.At night, it haunts me like a nightmare.It cuts deep through my soulThat leaves scars, an everlasting tattoo. It preys on my confidenceAnd binds me in decadence.Have I been told to clapback?I was. For I, too, wished to bounce back. But as frail as I was, I crumbled.My…

Goner
A deep raspy voice called to me, “Come hither, come hither,Follow my voice, come to me.”As fear embraced me, I shudder.Towards my demise, I walk nigher.Damn! It dawned on me that I’m a goner.

Her Final Wish

The Heart That Once Loved True Lies Here
You proclaimed your intent too sweet for her liking,Perhaps it was one of those scripted litanies.Her naïve heart swooned over your tender words,Unaware her peaceful world would crumble. For quite a while she danced gayly,Oblivious to the looming malady.She sang melodies, laughed her heart outLiving in fantasy, without a hint of doubt. But one day,…

A Million Reasons
This heart knew pain, had suffered worseAt times it shows no mercy, just remorse.But what’s mightier than love itselfWhen it came knocking at my doorstep,And without me knowing I befell in a trance.Your potion worked on me, you had me under a spell.I couldn’t resist, I couldn’t get awayAnd I found myself bewitched by you…

Waiting

Last Sunset
I blinked away the tears threatening to flowWhen the last sunset faded its glow,I watched as the curtains of grim clouds drew in,Felt your strong arms imprisoned me then.I could not wrestle-off from your steel hold,Could do nothing but to let the story unfold.You stoked the fire, lit me up with a single sparkWhen you…

Remember Me
Remember me…Through the breeze on a cold morning,Through the crisp wind on a warm evening,Through the pale glow from the moonlight,Or the flickering neon lights on a lazy night.Search me through the crowd in the bustling streets,On the crossroads or passers-by in front of your car, When the red light is on while you’re behind…

Escape
If I could escape from my demons by being with you,And if having you could make me forget the torment,And if this borrowed moment would be perpetual,I’ll have you near me often or be wherever you are,And If this fleeting time with you would mean forever,I’d choose to bask in this glory ’til it obliterates…

Cursed Lover
If this curse can only be broken by a spellWhere I have to write tales of you,Should I refuse such a chanceIf it meant our eternal togetherness?If tomorrow is assured to be spent with youYet I have to scribble more love notes for you,Should I refuse such a sweet ordealWhen I find pleasure in writing…

What am I?
I found myself mourningFor a love that has never been,Shattered to bitsFlown with the windLike it was never meant,For I was never once and never will beThe rhythm and the rhymeTo complete a masterpiece,For I was never once and never will beA whisper from your lipsNor a cry from your want and your needs,For I…

In the arms of the shadows
(Will she ever find comfort out in the lightWhen she loved how warm it is to be in the dark?Will she ever feel safe out in the lightWhen she found compassion in the dark?)… The intoxicating chill nips at her soulThat slowly numbs her inner turmoilLethargic, she found a new obsessionSpellbound, she succumbed to addiction.For,…

Embers of the Past
The horror of the past still lingers in my skinThat smells of betrayal and tears and torment.What must I do to forget the taunting aching?What antidote will work to numb these fears?If I strip myself before your eyes and pose bare,You’ll see marks and scars tattooed forever,A living testament of the battle I foughtAnd on…

FAREWELL
Shall this life expires at a sudden moment‘Tis certain I fell in the hands of my opponent,This instant allow me to opportune this chanceTo vent my goodbye by chanting my rants. For emotions I touched, skins I prickedFrom the visions and words I fancily createdMe self condemned, though random verses I played.Clear is my conscience, edgy…
