Memories

Memories...

Haunting... Tormenting...

So much pain.

Try to outrun them,

Can't leave behind that which is within you.

Try to shut them out... illusion of control,

They find their way back in.

Try to forget... a deception, 

They lie deep beneath,

Lurking in the shadows,

Lay in wait,

till they spring on you, without warning!

Sum of your life,

Regrets... Remorse... Self pity...

They say 'Time heals all wounds'

Wound that never stops bleeding, never heals.

Time flows by...

The years gone by...

Conversations we never had...

Moments that slipped us by...

Times we missed...

Memories we never made...

Time flows away...

Never comes back.

Floating

Thin line seperates

sanity from insanity.

Straddling it, a tightrope walk.

Moments of clarity

spread between haziness.

Everyone tells me

"keep holding on"

"have to move on"

Do they even know

what they talk about?

Feels like I'm dead in the water,

just floating...

Still here...

I waited for you,
And I waited, and waited,
But you never came.

I made a mistake.

I did not see,
what was in plain sight,
and when I did,
I chose to ignore it.

I regret it.

Sometimes, I feel so alone,
all strength from me gone.

My mind is numb.
My life is still.

Will our paths ever cross again?
I hope...

I wish you could hear my song
and it echoes in your heart.

I'll be here for you...
I've always been here...

Wish of a Dream

A part of me was dead
I carried it inside.

Poetry flowed from my pain
As blood flowed through my veins.

Words poured out of my pen,
could not be contained.

It came to me in a dream.
Was not what it seemed.

I was caught offguard,
Could not understand,

I knew not what to do,
at a loss for words.

Part of me, alive again,
Risen from the dead.

The void is filled,
The wound is healed.

I wondered,
How am I whole again?

Or is it just a dream,
To wither in Time?

Being in love

Ever been in Love?
Strongest emotion of the human soul.

The Conscious may be controlled,
But the Subconscious is out of control,
It's where love sprouts and thrives
And manifests in dreams.

"It's better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all."
Whomever said that,
Knew nothing of what he said.

Coz if you know not what love is,
You know not what you miss
And ignorance truly is bliss.

Sometimes I cry myself to sleep,
Yet I know not why I weep.

Loving hearts are kept apart.
Is the cruel joke of Fate.

Love. Unrequited.

Why did I ever let you go?
I often wonder,
If I had met you not,
My life would have been simpler.

My thoughts were,
You would be happy.
But as things are,
Neither are happy.

Wish I could turn the clock back.
Undo what has been done.
Alas! If it were possible to go back.
Decisions and actions could be undone.

None could have foreseen,
This is how it would turn out.
Cruel has Time been.
Fate has played it's part.
