Haunted house

By -

 I haven't seen you in years now 

The last time was at a greasy diner 

where you didn't even eat.

you were upset with me again.

telling me how I messed up, 

yet again. 

I think I ruined your day, again.

I would never tell you much about mine

How could I say that 

I choose joy when you choose me

I choose sorrow when you don't reply 

I haven't seen you in years 

yet your demanding 

ghost has taken shelter under my coffee table.

he makes me doubt the promises of love

he looms over every touch every other touch 

I thought i scabbed all your cuts,

I thought i scratched my eardrums to deafen it, 

your cunning ghost steals all the good 

I get buries ticking bombs in every road 

I take to find new companions new peace. 

Now you're gone so take him too deep stab 

wounds heal faster than you at the diner you buried, me 

why haunt me now?

you never wanted me anyway,

I need you gone so someone can strut into 

my house not feeling you there.

So someone can be mine in this haunted house.

All the stuffed toys looking at me Wondering are you the same who you used to be?  Giggling behind my back and cuddling me again at lonely nights Innocent me, unaware of everything used to feel delight The spilled ketchup on the table drooling down drop by drop Just like my heart, which was bleeding when I was singing in pain on the rooftop They were right, change is a necessary evil But I didn't know that would attract so many devils My experiences kept getting piled up like books in a bookshelf And when I opened them up, there was so much to learn from myself At the end you've to wrap yourself in a blanket under the tree Until it blesses you with some leaves which falls on your shoulder to set you free.              ~πŸ…’πŸ…—πŸ…žπŸ…€πŸ…‘πŸ…¨πŸ… πŸ…’πŸ…€πŸ…–πŸ…›πŸ…

Apology to Nature

By -
O' Mother Nature, I speak on behalf of the people I didn't know that the consequences would be lethal. O' how sorry I am For constructing that dam. I'm sorry for cutting that tree For having done this for free. I cared for you the least And now you consider me a beast. I'm sorry for all the pollution But now I'm searching for a solution. For I know, I have lost your trust But I also know, gaining it back is a must. I'll try in the future To bring back every little creature. No matter what it takes I'll correct all my mistakes.

Tear produced a fear

By -
It was just a tear  But so strong that I can hardly breathe any air Things in front of my eyes, I've been practicing them since I was a kid But when it's time for the action I have to stay away from it   All the dreams are crumbling for the second time in front of my eyes Now I can only see them from a distance and deep inside my heart cries These things have always been the major part of my entire life  Now the situation seperating me from them is continuously stabbing me with a knife  I wish whenever there will be a complete comeback it'll not be too late  That day I'll reply to those who used to underestimate...                                                     -Shourya Sugla
