If my sins had a smell would you sit near me?
I Wouldn't.
The tangy odour of deceit
A concoction of broken promises
The web of lies

A stench that embeds itself in ones skin
Needs more than a fix of TLC
Sorrow is my PLC
Yet it bothers you none

Through the shadow of my heart you see my smile
You feel my delicate underbelly
I am not a stain
I am more

Convinced of my plight
Stern i...

Your love is my favourite brand of intimacy.

No matter how much the shouting, its the inside worth counting
Never mind harsh words of a person, their actions could never worsen
Others with a listening ear, may take away the fear
The unknown goes on behind closed doors, hiding all the flaws
Love seemed a while away, yet so did the other day
Fondness comes after the trouble, back to how things were, a couple
Smiles are exchanged, somehow...

Stagnant

Like rainwater sitting out for days,

Attracting flies,

Like moths to a flame.

Serving no meaningful purpose,

So we remain

Unfulfilled—

Nothing’s changed.

Entrapped

In a recurring cycle,

Appearing to be renewed

As more rainwater starts to fall.

But new drops only meet the surface,

Clean merging with the murk below,

Clear streams swallowed by t...

The love we thought we had to give

Is an entirely different meaning of love we have now 

We came together as broken pieces 

Mending each other together separately 

While shielding our love from our own prejudice views

Individuals don’t have the strength to penetrate through 

Though we came close to letting our shield fall 

Quickly grabbing ahold because our hands loosened slig...

I lobe u

You know this

The feeling is strong

Even if the spelling is wrong

My tiny stubby fingers

Take little time to linger

Over the disproportionate keys

Stubbing along with a head full of bees

You ask what I lobe best

As if I'm not up to the test

But my lengthy gaze tells you

It's me that sees you

Especially when the words arrive late

I lobe...

I sit on the waiting seat on the station,

Not alone,

Many friends are waiting as well,

We share the same destination.

Not long after, the train arrives.

I look at my ticket,

"Ah, not my train", I say.

Some friends board,

They wave their hands,

We exchange smiles,

I'm left with the unfinished puzzle in my hand.

Not long after, another train arrives.

I l...

The sand of the sea, what are they to me?

Smiling mirages that drift by in lines.

Tried building castles but it seems to be,

the waves take them down every time.

I guess there’s a beauty in watching them flow,

like a kaleidoscope, swirling away,

back to their nature where they always go,

leaving me here at the end of the day.

Looking out as the sun sets to the se...

Things to adorn yourself.

Things for your home.

Things of a thousand kind, 

what do you own?

Gather it all til you have everything,

but know this that when the day’s done –

despite all your things

you don’t have a damn thing

if the sun sets…

and you’ve got no one.

Pretend not to notice.

Pretend you don’t see.

Protect at all cost

your illusions of me.

Don’t read what I write

on the lines of my page,

you’ll only find flaws

that you’ve long wished away.

Just keep smiling at me,

I’ll keep smiling at you.

You be who you are

and I’ll do what I do.

I’ll try not to let

all the things in my mind

stray far fro...
