Dear NK
I recall the first moment we met
Your tiny form a blur of motion
Your heartbeat a reminder of the impermanence of life
Your scent, a unique blend of joy and wonder
Filled me with a sense of purpose and love
I vowed to do all that I could to support and nurture you
But now, as we say goodbye
Both of us in the icy grip of death
My heart aches with grief and remorse
I would do anything to change the past
Your body, now still and pale
But your spirit a bright flame that will never be extinguished
You are forever etched...
Your tiny form a blur of motion
Your heartbeat a reminder of the impermanence of life
Your scent, a unique blend of joy and wonder
Filled me with a sense of purpose and love
I vowed to do all that I could to support and nurture you
But now, as we say goodbye
Both of us in the icy grip of death
My heart aches with grief and remorse
I would do anything to change the past
Your body, now still and pale
But your spirit a bright flame that will never be extinguished
You are forever etched...

The Spillage That's Our Love
She finds lines
To seep through her lies
And she thinks I don’t notice.
I try to listen
As her eyes glisten
Reflecting the pool of her deceit
I am just floating in my own miseries
Listening to her bleak series of lies
Realizing that we are both just using each other-
I am nothing more than a ticket out of the village
She is just whore to fill this current page
And so we profess this spillage as love
To seep through her lies
And she thinks I don’t notice.
I try to listen
As her eyes glisten
Reflecting the pool of her deceit
I am just floating in my own miseries
Listening to her bleak series of lies
Realizing that we are both just using each other-
I am nothing more than a ticket out of the village
She is just whore to fill this current page
And so we profess this spillage as love

Bara Psych Ward I
I recline in this desolate chamber, reflecting upon my existence—
A recent relapse has left me here; another overdose!
Sirens blaring, chaos ensuing, time moving at a crawl.
Awakened, confined to this bed, adorned in zebra stripes,
Blinded by a dazzling, circular light.
Deja vu consumes me: "I know this place."
The four walls are familiar,
"I'm back in the madhouse."
Emotion evades me,
As I succumb to self-imposed isolation.
This place is loathsome; it evokes no sympathy, remorse, joy, nothing.

She asked
Why do you want this so much… Why are you so open… Why do you want other people”
Behind the façade lies a small boy
Scared, to live, to dream, to want more for himself
He listens
as they utter praises and call him a genius-
He doesn’t care
He has told himself not to care
He has told himself that love is too much of a price to pay
He is scared, that’s all!
He uses women as pawns;
each one presenting a new opportunity,
each one just a piece in the game.
He has too many ghosts that haunt him;
too many voices...

Dear Love, I hope this letter finds you well.
On the day you discovered that chat
I berated myself for my own shortcomings
I reprimanded my sister for her lack of understanding
I accused you of seeing through my façade
I remember the trepidation I felt when I handed you my phone
I couldn't find the right words to justify my actions
So I left you with the phone
Hoping you would be content with just the music
And not delve into the deeper aspects of my life

Dear Love, I hope this greets you well
There are many things I wish to say,
But I fear some might not be heard,
And others are best left unsaid.
It's easy to apologize,
But harder to repair a broken spirit.
I don't expect to fix what's broken,
But I hope my remorse is received.
There are some things that are difficult for me,
like expressing myself when it matters most.
But there are things I can admit,
like that, I have been an asshole,
And for that, I am...

Dear love, I hope this letter greets you well!
You came into my life
And filled me with hope,
Gave me sense and reason,
Allowed me to fight my silent battles
At my own pace.
You had more trust to give
Than I ever warranted for,
And although I have brought it shuttering down,
You still chose that I'm worth your time
And that I'm worth your love.
You came along with joy
And a sense of tranquility,
You somehow managed to silence my demons
And command my storms to calm. ...

Dear Love, I hope this letter greets you well
Tis to the grey sky you've made blue,
Tis to the night you brought light,
Tis to the loneliness you filled with your warmth,
Tis to the little moments you cherish as monuments.
Tis to your eyes that carry sparks of fire,
Tis to your touch that releases an ocean of desire,
Tis to your words that always inspire,
Tis to your phoenix spirit that always rises higher.
Tis to blues that you do not choose,
Tis to the rules that are not...

Dear Love, I hope this letter greets you well.
May my words travel far,
To heal every scar,
May my love encompass you whole,
Reciprocated through your soul.
May your words always find a home in my heart,
And catch me when I'm falling apart,
May your love be my bonfire,
Cradling my every desire.
May you know, without doubt,
That I will never pull out,
From being there and loving you all,
And breaking your fall.
May I know, without doubt,
That you want us to go all...

Dear Love, I hope this finds you well.
I feel like telling the whole world
that I found a pretty girl
with a beautiful smile
and a lovely spark in her eyes
I feel like telling the whole world
that she loves poetry too
that she thinks I'm funny
and she says I have beautiful legs
I feel like telling the whole world
that she likes my cooking
she says my massages are nice
and she thinks I am intelligent
I feel like telling the whole world

Dear love, I hope this letter finds you well.
Tonight, I prayed,
I know I may not always be there
to hold your hand and show you how much I care,
to wipe away your every tear,
or see that smile in your stare.
I pray you always know I love you,
On days you are down,
on the verge of your breakdown,
When you feel like you've drown
where misery can only be explained with a frown,
and on days you feel unfit to slay your crown.
I pray that you may draw strength from my love,

Dear love, I hope this letter greets you well.
To me you are art
beautiful in all part
enchanting to the heart

beautiful and smart
You are a wide canvas
a painting of dreams
and hopes

portraying loneliness and happiness
Your words are an ocean
of wisdom spoken
omens broken
loneliness forsaken
love awaken
