Don't let people consume you. They ghost you? Respect the dead and never disturb them again. Silent treatment? Enjoy your quiet, peaceful time. They no longer want to ride with you? Enjoy your solo drive. They betray you? Move them from your inner circle to your outer circle.
She hid all the pencils
and carefully folded her
dreams into paper planes
Each crease a tender caress
Each fold an act of love
Each feeling too precious for words
Flying free
from the veils
that shrouded her sunlight
Her soul adrift in the vibrant hues
#FromOneLine
She hid all the pencils
Her unruly eyebrows
that refused to be tamed,
mouthed a silent thank you.
Like rebellious soldiers
they strayed in
abstract formation,
venturing boldly
across the margins
of her sketchy face
Without thinking
she grabbed
the black vivid
#FromOneLine
Sacrificing sleep
To write lines in the dark
Only to cross out heartfelt scribbles in the morning
My night musings
Can't translate in the day
As desires bleed on paper
With the words you'll never read
Trapped in the pages of my heart...

#FromOneLine
There were no more steps to take
The moon, a witness to my silent plea
A restless whisper, in the nights embrace
A fleeting solace of ecstacy
Poetic peace
Symmetry
For I am
Me
I can taste it with my eyes
The bedtime stories that victims wore
A mural of bruises to blanket their falls
In the depths of despair they dwell
Collecting courage to leave
this domestic hell
#FromOneLine
I can taste it with my eyes
And touch it with my ears
A vacation of smiles
Far away from my fears
I can hear the smell of calm
Where problems dissipate
And prayers are a balm
We wait on the hands of fate
