Even if I can never call you mine, I just want you to know how deeply I love you, my love...

To the one who holds my heart... "Even if I can never possess you, I want you to know that I love you." Yes, even without the right to hold you as my own, I wish you knew how profoundly I adore and cherish you. But expressing this fondness, this deep devotion, hasn’t been as easy as I once… (edited) read more

Loved in halves

Unfortunately, I am incapable of loving anyone or anything casually. I live in the spaces between my head and my heart, Inside the brittle bones that make up the pages of my conscience and the ink stained blood that writes them. Somewhere along that way I have lost the ability to love in halves.… read more

Broken

Someone once told me that my heart seems broken because I write such broken poetry. But tell me Do you have to be broken yourself to love someone who is broken ( It's only poetry)

"Passing Rain"

I waited quietly, foolishly, believing the cold must eventually end. Your silence fell one by one, until I could no longer pretend nothing had changed. Perhaps you were only passing rain, and I mistook you for the sea. So I stopped looking at the sky for signs of you and let the night… read more

Wolf in sheep’s clothing

A wolf in sheep’s clothing, I believed your guise, You spoke as though I were a child lost in lies. Your whispers pricked with sharpness, veiled disdain, While casting shadows on my fragile name. You claim concern, yet scorn with every frown, Upturning conversations, dragging me down. … read more

Felling Hungry

I'm feeling real hungry while I'm sitting in the bed Yeah I know, you're suppose to eat at the table instead But I wanna eat something warm and sweet Something that I can repeatedly eat I want something soft and wet to the touch Didn't get a chance to eat it for breakfast so, I want it for lunch I… read more

a habit of love

I remember how you always reached for lola’s hand even with eyes that could barely see, joints that barely moved, & a mind that was slowly letting go Still when the sun came up, your hands would always, always find hers. I wonder if she wonders where your hand is now or if she remembers them at… read more

Requiem

Remembering when we were lost in a haze Moments lost to consecutive blaze In my head this movie plays A scene when I reflected in your gaze If only I had known your time was so short I wouldn't be here now in regret's court Its been years but I can still hear your retort Its been years and our… read more

A sheep in wolf’s clothing

In shadows deep where silence calls, I wear a mask, I blend with thralls. With whispered words, I play the game, In wolf's attire, I stake my claim. Yet underneath this crafted guise, A timid heart, a soft reprise. I dance and bow to every jest, But night unveils the hidden quest. … read more

"Forgotten Letter"

Some letters are meant to be forgotten, forbidden. I wrote thousands of letters, and this is one of them. I never dared to send it, scared of the consequences of what never got to happen but had already taken shape in my head. The image was so clear that I began to believe it was true. I… read more

A life that goes on

Why does life grow harder for those who only ask for enough— enough work to live, enough warmth to belong, enough love to come home to? We walk through a world full of faces, yet somehow remain unseen. Hearts build walls, hands hesitate, and two souls searching can pass like strangers in the… read more

You changed me

I changed for you, a shape unclear, A silhouette of dreams once bright, In shadows of your whispered need, I bent and broke to seek your light. And yet, you shifted like the tide, While I, a shell, lost what was me, My heart’s true voice reduced to goals, A puppet bound, but never… read more

In a world of many

The world has changed, new faces, new ways, a thousand lights burning beneath a beautiful sky. Yet this old soul still searches the crowd for one familiar light— one heart that feels like home. I am free. I am single. I am ready to mingle, yet every reaching hand seems to find only silence. I… read more

Every day I wake up and strike one day off the calender

Every day I wake up and strike one day off the calender I wonder If I'm the writer Or just the spectator Is the story mine Or am I just another character? The constant passage of time Leaves me with loops of seven to nine The clock keeps hitting me right on time The stress i feel is not even… (edited) read more

3 am Thoughts

If Lust is the only thing I can wake in men I don't feel like liking them A friend, a protector, a companion for life. Is there someone who would make me his wife. Explore the world Explore the mind Keeping the heat, Keeping it kind. A safe place to rest A person to call "home" To build, to… read more

Brave

You can be scared or You can be brave You can sleep or You can fight without giving fate It's taste of turn You can give up or You can choose to bear the pain of run (That's not so fun!) You can fall, lose and get lost But that will still be better Then being a corpse Acting dead and… read more

In search of you

In search of you I have found countless people in cue But none of them was like you I should stop Maybe just pause Wait and watch You played your role And that was all afterall.. Nahi?

Holy gothic 🖤🖤

Do you wanna hear a story? THE HERALD Arrow and bow drawn upon a messenger from the West. Fire, torch, and tattered cloths lie in a sky-blue chest. Battered boots and a message; armed and ready, the champion. He leaves his steed behind, at the border between the wall and the ground. Night… 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

Alone but not lonely

I walk alone beneath the moon, with my own heart as my sweetest tune. No one beside me, yet I’m alright, I’ve learned to enjoy my own quiet night. I need no crowd to make me whole, I’ve found my peace within my soul. So let me wander, let me roam— I may walk alone, but I am home.

And now a Poem By Rebeca Palm.

Angels face Devil's words A creature of the night Walks in the daylight. He'll lure you in Beware of yourself He'll talk sweetly to you Intense is his name. No way out He'll have all your thoughts Keep moving forward Take care of your words. Beware your heart Or you'll never turn back A… read more

Live as long as I do, then judge me.

Don't judge me without knowing what I've lost in my life, how many friends I've buried, and where and how I lost my childhood.

What is your favorite color?

Colors swirl in thoughts, unkempt What is my favorite? A query unspent. Not pink's embrace, nor blue’s calm hue, These shades differ, diverging from you. Perhaps black for the shadow you cast, Or white for the innocence lost, gone fast. In clarity’s fight, I chase the unseen, Oh yes,… read more

Love or infatuation

What is love, against infactuation It seems the same, it feels the same but, I don't even know you, we've never even met But seeing your photos, hearing your voice Hangs heavy on ny chest. How your smile seems aimed at me Forgetting that a million others, also see. Just a flicker in a starry… (edited) read more

After 4 months of being here in Saudi Arabia, It is just now that I opened these handwritten letters from my co nurses from the Philippines. Nothing hits quite like a handwritten note that reminds you that you're valued, and appreciated..I am missing being the preceptor and mentor for new nurses… read more

We're all holographic can't you see? Everything all at once in a single point called now The waves that comes to shore, never did left A single drop in the ocean makes ripples But no difference to the rest Torn between escaping but to nowhere Everything is and will be and it's all the same The in… read more

Breathe of anxiety

Just take a breath, I plead in silence as shadows stretch across the ground. The world spins fast with fleeting moments, while I remain, a tree unshaken, roots deep set in the soil of thought. Time whispers secrets through the branches but I stand still, my heart a pendulum, caught… read more

Scared

I was scared Scared of insecurities Scared of uncertainties Scared of things that life brings Scared of the stares Scared of the sighs Scared of everything That has ever made me feel I'm not right But gone are the days Insecurities are no more the death stare I'm still imperfect The facial… read more

"My Muse"

When I first saw him, I won’t say I felt butterflies. I felt my brain dizzy, or that I couldn’t stop thinking. Rather than saying it like that, I don’t even realize that he is the one for me. I saw him once, then twice, and then I visited his world in this world. It was beautiful— unlike… read more

Intertwined souls 💕

Even in the darkest night, there is always a light waiting to be found. (edited)

I seek kindred souls who find meaning between the lines, Where unspoken emotions intertwine with eloquent designs. Perhaps our serendipitous meeting becomes a verse untold, A connection woven from words, profound and bold.

A soul once wandered through the ruins of what it had known, Until a serendipitous connection made the silence its own. A new presence breathed life into a heart grown still, And suddenly, yesterday felt distant, and tomorrow felt real.

Untitled (Condition, not room)

Not a room — a condition. Light recalibrates when I enter the frame — not avoidance, just altered protocol. Signals move freely through the structure, bright, uninterrupted, as if the medium has been reprogrammed to route around me. I remain the unindexed constant, present, but excluded from the… read more
