I want to watch your hair grow gray

I want to watch your hair grow gray. I want to see day after day the lines cross your face. You alone forever in my space

Poem about moving to a different country

Hey souls. Got a lot of free time after moving and I continued writing. I thought why not share it. Take a look :) I'm more open to criticism than approval. Hope you enjoy it Marching towards an end, I found a new beginning. Even though I'm withering, my gaze remains clear and set, as if… read more

smile.

her eyes, the way they smile before her mouth remembers to. her lips, the way they wander like they know something she can’t say. her love, the way you can tell with just a look. her pain, the way she wears it softly, behind painted cheeks. her wish, if I could ask for only one small… read more

The Names of the Absent

We call out their names,
though they will never hear them again,
they no longer can.
The heart whimpers with longing—
I wish I could hear you one more time. Their names, like a mantra,
cannot bring them back.
Yet they offer comfort
in an empty room,
in the darkness of night,
beneath the… read more

(not) random thought

Do you as well yearn to exit this dream? From being looked at to being seen?

You.

I keep you in between these pages, in my heart as well.

If you ever fall in love with me, don’t make me wait too long, because love is beautiful… but I’m sleepy and tired! 😂❤️

Let me 🥀

Let me rewire the time You once lost inside your mind Let me rewrite the letters You once sang along the rhymes Let me open the windows of your heart You once closed in the dark Let me see you See your reflection staring back at me Let me hear you A voice, an echo, a song of the sea Sail, sail… read more

Preferences 💌

Not everyone we meet will be someone we like. And that’s okay. We’re allowed to have preferences, to have expectations, even to change our minds. But hopefully, whatever we feel never makes us forget that everyone still deserves to be treated with kindness. Because attraction is a choice, but… (edited) read more

Love me or hate me

Unhinged or Structured

Should Love be unhinged and free, or disciplined and consistent? ☺️ What brings the taste of love, that can never be replaced?

Longing.....

Will you come with me, somewhere far away? Let us sit together under the open sky, and let me ask how you are doing. May we keep talking to each other, even if the dark night falls. I will keep gazing at you, and weaving stories for you. I look at the moon, I look at the stars, but I see no face,… read more

Time (a poem I wrote while watching the clock tick by)

I once have asked Old Father Time if he can take us farther. Not even he can heal the wounds That left us both asunder. All I have now are shades of past, An empty head that screams I'm fine, And feelings that turned sour. So please pour me an hourglass So I can drink the sands of time And get… read more

I miss those times that Love was Different.

Love that waits. Love that understands. Love that endures anything. That Type of Love that started from being strangers to friends then Friends to Lovers. It's just a sad fact that Love nowadays are treated as transactional, and it's quick and fast.. nothing too serious.. nothing deep. I love… (edited) read more

Unnamed

I try so hard to understand the disconnect between womb and man. The differences, the betweens of his and hers. Beyond the bigotry. Beyond the slurs. Away from capitalists and victims. Where justice is not lost to systems. Because of hate, there comes pain. Because of greed, the acid rain. They… read more

Hidden Weight

A smile, tucked away, a secret burden. The world weighs heavy, finances strained, dreams of writing feel like whispers in the wind. A career path, uncertain, a sense of failing. But then, love, boyfriend's embrace, a family's warmth. Grateful, yet the fear lingers, the pressure to be a constant… read more

The Vigil

All through the night, an unbearable silence thunders plundering the dreams of every sleeping being, and by morning, it weaves them into a mirror called dawn that opens like a gateway into the one dream to which we always return the dream of being awake…

"Words I Hope I'll Never Need"

I wrote it on the first page, then between the pages, again and again and again, Until my hands started bleeding, Until I whispered it even in my sleep. By the last page, there was nothing left but his name. The world read it and knew. He read it too, yet never knew. Wish I never had to… read more

FEEL

I know what I feel , but what do you feel? ==================================== Pure Introspection: What I feel – I know. in long terms; This structure eliminates friction with the other. There is a hermetic closure here: the emotional experience and the awareness of it converge. The self is both… read more

Coconuts

To climb the coconut tree you must have a rope, A decent amount of courage And also hope. Hope to god you do not fall And because a laughing stock to all. But worse than shame there is the fact It hurts a lot to fall like that. You will hobble home with a broken butt And tell your mum “no… read more

Chaos through uncertainty

I wish I could arrive at your doorstep. To meet you. To touch souls the way we used to without words. I think about the way you smiled, how your eyes held me. How your gaze pierced through my walls like sunlight through shutters. It wasn't just surface beauty. It was something deeper. Brown eyes… (edited) read more
