All day long, my eyes are dead in a stare
At night, stories flow in endless streams

-

I wish we would fit together
Like two broken mirrors
But you are unbroken,
Your edges barely rugged
While mine are jagged points
I would pierce you deep
Deflating your fullness
Taking away all that you hold dear
And maybe leave behind
A weeping bloody shard
Ruining you and me both
And so I turn away from your embrace,
For that is how I will love you the most.

-

I loved you enough to let you go
But all the tears shed and unshed,
All the screams heard and unheard,
All the faces seen and unseen,
Just doesn't seem to fill
The gaping void inside my heart

-

And in that venture, somehow I forgot what I really was

-

When all tenderness from our heart has leached out,
When all acts of ours turn purely mechanical,
What right have we to lament that there is not enough humanity and humility left in the world?
That the world is devoid of kindness, how do we say
When our own heart is but an empty shell of negativity
A hardened relic, of what once had been?!
Our fingers do point with ease
But our heads hurt on introspection

-

"Don't fall today
Don't break today
Don't you dare give up
And take the leap
To the cold numbness
That you crave the most
Don't you dare fall
Please not today"

-

For you are everything I am not
And I am everything you would never want to be

-

You made me cry,

But how could I blame you
When all along I knew
And you didn't
That you meant more to me
Than I did to you?

-

And the one I'd tell them is an unfinished fun story that my buddy and I wrote from scratch during a lecture, alternating every two sentences, filling 6 pages and involving all the heroes and characters of our memorable childhood from Tom and Jerry to Wolverine, the entire thing sparked off by the law for the defence for insanity.

Rude Awakenings

On retrospection
I'm the only one to be blamed
For hoping too much, too soon
And today is the day
I crucify myself
