Every Day Poems

2021-12-07 15:19:52 After I carved my names on gravestones,

You ask me to put on a halo ring, and dye my red drenched wings with white?

Do you ask me to take off the darkness' gown,

For an oath I made to those who were buried in every shade of my mistakes?

And
Often we fail at passing it.

Flames to dust,
Lovers to strangers,
Life to death,
Greatness to ruins.

In a sea of sorrow,
From a sea of joy.
In loneliness,
From a beloved nation.

Questions of,
Of existence from a sad life.
Of purpose from a tragic destiny,
Of love from heartbreak.
Of faith from a forsaken soul.

They say to every dark cloud,
There is a silver lining,
From darkness comes light,
From nothing to something.

Is it true? What they speak of!
But if life ends with death,
The day by night
And existence by extinction.

One with eyes and a heart,
Can see that everything is good,
Ends in sorrow in this life,
And sometimes darkness comes from light.

2021-12-07 01:56:33 The past doesn't define you,
The future is yet to be seen,
Then why are you so worried?
Thinking about things you cannot forsee,
Take a deep breathe,
Let the worries out,
The only thing you need to think about,
Is the present moment, now...

"Are you deluded? We are not holding hands anymore."

"It is easy. I could hold it right this instant."

" Maybe that is why this all ended in catastrophe. You thought holding hands were easy. It is a metaphor for holding a heart and you have never held mine." Open / Comment

2021-12-06 22:10:32 This used to be the heart you owned, the one you knew from the inside out,
The one you thought would remain the same, through the drizzle and the drought,
But it became a stranger's face due time, one you can't recognize, has it not?

This used to be the heart you owned, the heart who used to beat only for you,
This used to be the one that loved you more than any in the world,
Somehow it ran hard and cold. But know that it was all your fault. Open / Comment

2021-12-06 20:40:11 In the middle of a world
Where everyone is losing their minds,
We refuse to be broken by fears
Thus turn into the best of the mad.

They call us
The League of the Wicked;
We take it
Wear it proudly like a medal.

"We'll eat what you dish out,
Be the ones last standing;
And when we don't,
We'll exit with a laughter
So we'll always be the one
Laughing in the end!"

Thus
The League of the Wicked
Promised the world.

2021-12-06 19:02:30 I work so hard
to be the hero.

but then I sabotage myself,
picking out poisoned apples
and eating them like candy.

I am the antagonistic
protagonist
of my own story.

2021-12-06 17:09:29 When beads of pearls rolled down cheeks,
What do you see
Or rather what do you feel?

Are you struck with an existential crisis,
Or rather the lost of faith in humanity?
Do you wish to rise above the world,
To look down and yell while losing your life's meaning?

Does a teardrop turn you insane,
Or do you need me to keep you sane?
But it's so unfair that it doesn't show on your face,
With all the wars going inside your head,
I wish it showed,
Cause then we can call for help,
Without feeling insecure.
