Grounding Truth
Even in life’s turmoil Time can only lie Rather whisper, and softly it says I’m going slow but I wont wait Perceptions of seconds Slowed down to the last breath Cry me a river my companion If I ask, shall you reveal your name? There are endless tragedies as you say Pain is indeed a friend along its way Funny, he shall wait for me on every step Perhaps I don’t know my own friends As I grow old, the colour shall fade From life, maybe maturity is a price We pay to rationalise all that we couldn’t have, should we still keep trying? I ask As there are regrets to live by In my moments of weaknesses as I drive by My own thoughts, oh how they tour Without a passport bringing me to the floor Grounded as they land me in a space I’m familiar with the ironies in the winters daze Cry me a river yet again I ask When you look into the mirrors Why don’t you take off the mask Once unsheathed what would it reveal ? To each its own ridden insecurities I cannot speak for the world I suppose Therefore I shall only speak of those known before Since you never would admit to these Atrocities of being an avoidant I believe To fight for peace and build great walls To trap your own in these grand halls All under but a pre-tensed faux The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog What it all means is for you to construe, For you never spoke, and I never knew.

The burning question became…
If a hero was born from tragedy… What happened to the villains? Did they fall through the cracks of fate, or were they once heroes, too, shaped by the same fire but choosing to burn instead of rise? Perhaps the difference was never in the suffering, but in what was done with the pain.

The weight of truth
The truth is heavy, sharp, and bright, A blade that cuts through endless night. It waits in silence, cold and still, Unmoved by want, untouched by will. We build our walls, we paint the sky, We twist the tale, we shape the lie. Yet truth remains, it does not fade, A shadow cast, a debt unpaid. To... (edited) read more

A Morning with a Heavy Heart
🌹 The sun rises, but I do not. Light spills into my room, touching the floor, the walls, but not the weight in my chest. Birds call to each other outside, their voices bright, unaware of the silence in me. The world moves forward— cars hum, footsteps pass, coffee brews in distant kitchens. But... read more

My friend
I am not what I seem. Seeming is but a garment I wear—a care-woven garment that protects me from thy questionings and thee from my negligence. The “I” in me, my friend, dwells in the house of silence, and therein it shall remain for ever more, unperceived, unapproachable. I would not have thee... read more

Where Lovers Are
It spurred me closer Shot me far To find where single lovers are To start each day with heart ajar Or rather find you at the bar But would I wish upon a star These dreams of "we" beyond a par Reality can never mar I wander still, where lovers are

Shadows of the sand
I walked where the sun burned red, boots heavy on foreign ground, where silence screamed between the dead, and ghosts refused to drown. The rifle weighed against my hands, a burden more than steel, each round a whisper, each command, a wound I’ll never heal. The faces blur, the voices fade, but... read more

I engraved your name in my melancholy. Withering in pain of the untold whispers I've become yours.... It was that smile and I've been enchanted since forever... In distant memories, If ever I ever ask you, what made me let go? Nor love, nor grief .... Just the fall.... There you go, I fell....

In Regards To Which One Burns.
I am aware of the war within, A dichotomy draped in decadent sin. Torn between compass and collapse, Between love’s warmth and venom’s grasp. I reach for connection—a fragile confession, Yet I’d settle for a simple infection. A sickness that stays when the lovers leave, A fever that hums where the... read more

She saw through me
I smiled, a practiced, hollow grin, A mask to hide the war within. The world believed, they always do, But not her—she always knew. Her eyes, like razors, cut too deep, Through every lie I tried to keep. No empty laugh could turn away The knowing gaze that made me stay. "Drop the act," she softly... read more

In lonely dialogue, my heart did confess A path I've chosen, now an endless mess The chains of sorrow, forged by my own design Forever entwined, a heart in lonely confine.

Waters Edge
true love flows like a river: through and over jades jagged stone that smooths under water. feeds roses that blossom wide, open to the sun's warmth. flows over rubies, red of fires destruction, stifling their flame. passions rush as waters fall, travels over flesh, nourish and cleanse, wounds of...

Gengar: The greatest of them all
In shadows deep where nightmares crawl, One specter reigns above them all. A wicked grin, those crimson eyes, A ghostly king who never dies. No mortal foe can match his might, He slips through walls, unseen in night. A whisper here, a cackle there, Then suddenly—he’s everywhere! He strikes before... read more

Reckless Hearts and Restless Minds
Reckless Hearts and Restless Minds I chased the rush, the fleeting high, A moth drawn close to neon skies. Love was steady, soft, and true, Yet I craved storms, electric hues. Impulses whispered, took the wheel, Desires unchecked, I failed to feel The hands I held begin to slip, The heart I vowed... read more

Crown of Redemption I was blind to the light right in front of me, Your love like a river, deep as the sea. But lost in shadows, I failed to see, The heart that waited so patiently.

Impossible to find love
Is there something wrong about me? I am either the wrong person or the other person is the wrong fit, Is the Universe telling me something? Amni meant to be single? Idk We meet, we flow, he goes..... Maybe it's impossible to find love again

In ink of twilight, soft and deep, A whispered promise, secrets keep. Across the page, a tender trace, Of feelings woven, time and space.

Why must we suffer here? This place which is not our heaven. Could we not just ... escape but once? Away somewhere?

I Hope You…
I hope you find what you are running from, in the echoes of laughter that fades too soon, in the warmth of hands you barely hold, before they slip into ghosts you refuse to name. I hope you tire of borrowed love, of fleeting glances that never stay, of lips that promise but never mean, of cycles... read more

You exist in a temporary vessel, on a spinning space rock, adrift in the vast expanse, held by gravity’s silent lock.

I’m not a puzzle you piece together and then stuff into a box. Boxes… Four walls… Walls go up… And suddenly, I find myself trapped in my own making. A making I believed in because you believed.

It's that time of the year again Destroying everything I've gained I feel the feelings deeply The breath of death goes sweetly It wants me to give up So bad It creeps between my lap So sad And sadness wouldn't let me thrive I need something to feel alive I kept it bottled-up for long Enough... read more

She lays her head to rest…
She lays her head to rest for another day… Hoping that when she wakes, it will complete the cycle. But once again, she weeps through the night, tossing and turning, As her thoughts run wild, like an angry furnace. Waking to barks, chirps, and light, Her under-eyes heavy with darkness, her body...
