I was looking up at the night sky
And there, the moon looked right back at me
It was a blood moon
As if the moon knew what was happening
It was as if it was bleeding red for me
I've had to keep my feelings under check, deal with life and move on like nothing happened
When all i want to do is breakdown for a few days, cry and let it all go from within
The moon shone a fierce red tonight
Looking at it made me tear up, gave me a strange sense of relief to know that my ruler was upset for me,
And was supporting me unwaveringly, out in full display, for the world to see-
I still live by those words you once said
They've stayed with me
Since the moment they left your lips, my friend
"Look at the way a person laughs, observe
Is it open and inviting, like a book?
Is it closed and muted? Like they're hiding
Hiding a part of themselves, obscure
The former, you trust
The latter, you don't "
I don't know now, where you are
But those words of yours
Will stay etched in me forever-
Songs have the potential to make you discover qualities in yourself that you never knew existed
Many of the times you may be the person that saves,
Other times, you may be the person in need of rescuing....-
What if we were made of clay and words had the power to shape us...

On some days, the line between the sea and sky disappears
All you see is just a massive splash of blue
And the sun in the midst of it all like a little yellow dot
It takes your breath away-
.....The irony is, if I were to ask anyone for advice on solving mysteries, it would have been you.

Ten long years did you have to wait,
For the mark to bite the bait,
When all work is complete and done,
You finally have some well deserved time
To put your feet up, have some fun-
A-N-A-N-Y-A
I wrote my name in big block letters across the front page,
Controlling the urge to decorate the sides with hearts, I told myself,
"This is your official register! You can't!"
I traced out two invisible hearts and a smiley face,
The tip of my pen never touching the surface
The path of adulthood looms in the distance,
Big and scary,
Without any emojis to soften the blow-
This time, it was different
I attended the phone call
I steeled my heart for what was coming
My pulse became erratic
I felt the heat in my cheeks
I stopped in my tracks
I calmed my breathing and continued talking
This time, I taught myself to not react to the charming voice
Not to blush at the complements
Not to smile at the ground
This time, I wasn't affected by any of it
No more false hope
When I cut the call, I smiled to myself
I had finally let go-
