POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
"I became insane with long intervals of horrible sanity " Edgar Allan Poe
I am angry
Always condescending They and I
no in between.
My own words fuelling my anger
couldn't stop.
(thinking I'm home) delusion.
Mending relationships bound by grudges,
all this concealment.
Angry for having to be a clown.
(thinking I'm home) delusion.
Being a coward in the light,
living and dying.
Angry for being my own enemy.
(thinking I'm home) delusion.
Taking the best from this ink,
wanting to forget.
Searching and crying but engraved.
Angry that I still can't find it.

Superpower I wish I had
If I could wish for a wish
then I would wish I could kill
I would kill my sadness
of sadness unknown
I would kill my loneliness
of loneliness unseen
I would kill my love
of love unsaid
When all my feelings is killed
I would kill me
descend in oblivion if I could
If I could wish for a wish
then I would wish I could kill
then I would wish I could kill
I would kill my sadness
of sadness unknown
I would kill my loneliness
of loneliness unseen
I would kill my love
of love unsaid
When all my feelings is killed
I would kill me
descend in oblivion if I could
If I could wish for a wish
then I would wish I could kill

ENDLESS
Love a trite but I write, if I don't write what else do I have?
Love him so much I have forgotten how to love
It's madness they say
If so it seems wonderful
To die again and again for him death would wonder
In wind I would still love him
In the burning flames I would still love him
In his rejection I would still love him
If I cannot feel anything I would still love him
It's raining but I cannot feel the rain
I'm crying but I cannot feel my tears
I'll always love him with a love that's beyond love
Love him so much I have forgotten how to love
It's madness they say
If so it seems wonderful
To die again and again for him death would wonder
In wind I would still love him
In the burning flames I would still love him
In his rejection I would still love him
If I cannot feel anything I would still love him
It's raining but I cannot feel the rain
I'm crying but I cannot feel my tears
I'll always love him with a love that's beyond love

FEAR
I fear, that's the beginning.
What I fear is fathomless.
Where to start? I fear that too.
What am I looking for? I don't know, I fear that too.
What is it that I cannot overcome? I fear that too.
I say it's okay to myself, I fear that too.
It's ironical, metaphorical, hypothetical,
judgemental, detrimental.
It's rhyming and I fear that too.
A vicious cycle, no bigger words to describe it further.
I fear, that's the ending.

Ambiguity Of Empty Mind
If I were to think I'd die today, would "I"?
Influence is always on Circumstances.
I think there are no rules
but if I were to follow is it a crime?
"Words" even without it I'd say it would all rhyme.
Irony?
So if I were to think I'd die today would "I"?
or have I died for I have thought .
Maybe...

Paradox
What I thought I was, was I really that?
What I think I am, am I really that?
Fear of everything is a very heavy burden,
How would it feel to lose this fear?
How would it feel to be positive?
Wanting to embrace death yet to fear it these whims of mine is out of my grasp.
I want love when I'm already loved,
I want freedom when I'm already free,
Why do I feel empty and cold?
All the words are dying,
What is it that my soul is asking for?
As I get ready to self destruct, it really seems beautiful and all I could think is of the...

Enigmatic
To write give a poem.
A mind like on stars,
stars that's out of reach.
Deep and deeper than the depth
of the ocean.
Solving can only make you wonder,
because there is nothing that can be
understood rather just to assume.
For a moment it was a pleasure
taking you to dreams undreamt.

Who Am I ?
I knew I wasn't pretty and so
a melancholic lie was born.
It's deadly and unstoppable, an
illusion that I chose to make it my reality.
For searching for veracity is a
beautiful lie to myself and maybe leading to a tragic end.
It started to grow in me and it soon became me, and without it I didn't
know who I was anymore. Frozen in
time, I'm bounded in my own fears
and insecurities.
Envious of the sparkling world, lying became my religion and as the cynic
in me tried to embrace nihilism my lost motive awoke

Poetic Grave
It's a beautiful day !
Shady and gloomy inside the
box and it's filled with tranquillity.
A long dreamless dream it's such
a sweet irony, just eternity
of nothing how wonderful isn't it ?
In that black dress she's laying with
her red delusional fantasy and all
soaked up in her beautiful dark art.
She loves death and it's so strong
that even death is afraid to die.
And when she made death her muse
it became dangerous even for demons.
Oh !!! what a poetic grave it is.
