shhhhhh……

a secret in those eyes
hidden away, locked
the betrayal and the lies
i feel i’m being mocked

a feeling uneasy, every time
i look at you now
and you say everything’s fine
yet you broke the vow

would you gain back the trust
so unceremoniously broken
or give in again to lust
and be just a token

a secret never for another ear
but only for those eyes
staring through the crumpled mirror
and with it, it shall die

Inertia

The daily prompts are getting a bit boring now. I don’t know if that’s due to me trying to do most of them or because they are actually boring. Or maybe the rut is getting to me. I don’t want that. But sometimes you can’t control these things. The whole point is to be able to get through and come out the other side. I’m trying that.

Right now, it’s getting difficult to manage life. I feel pretty stressed out about tomorrow. And tomorrow I’ll feel the same about the day after. What I need right now is some change in the everyday proceedings. It’s funny how difficult any transition can be. Being unsure of yourself seems to be part of the job.

As to how long this will take is something I can’t put my finger on. There’s something called theory of inertia which states that objects that are moving or stationary will remain to do so unless acted upon by an external force. That’s actually the first law of motion. Seems to resonate a lot in life, not just the realm of physics. I need to find an external force to get out of this inertia. Act, you imbalanced force, act.

A job

Money for Nothing

If you’re like most of us, you need to earn money by working for a living. Describe your ultimate job. If you’re in your dream job, tell us all about it — what is it that you love? What fulfills you? If you’re not in your dream job, describe for us what your ultimate job would be.

I’d like to continue writing. I’ve never had a chance to write and get paid. But it’ll be probably the best thing.

trust

the sweet nothings i whispered
were for you, not for one soul another
i thought we were together, up or down
here i am, without a shadow, full of doubt

tell me why? isn’t it the least i deserve
after all i lost, an answer to remember
shards of trust through broken heart
never again am i letting you close

eternal love

i see myself in your eyes
the way you turn, the way you move
carrying the weight of the world
still smiling, waiting for me

i see you from afar, afraid
for a bit too close, will bring you harm
but my love for you my love
will be forever

i wait for you, i pine for you
for our time is measured, a moment
without you, an eternity
you’re the one for me

i can’t see you anymore
for you are eclipsed with someone
i see you cry, your fury
uncontrollable

a sudden shift in your nature
is not unnatural to me, but for beings
mortal, i implore your mercy
they are our children

the eclipse will end my love
the clouds will part and we’ll be together
for it is written
by skies

now streaming : life

there’s so much to say so much
to discuss
unimaginable that all this while
we never
the stories you wanted to tell me
that night
how about when the cops stopped us
one time
a whole lot has happened since last
we spoke
the glint in your wide green eyes
i missed
the hint of the smile you flash
has evoked
let’s go out, talk, have fun just get
ready stat
connection is back, never mind, go
online, we’ll chat
