Karma is like seeds,
When you sow pumpkin
You must not expect cucumber.-
my poetry is a mixed bag
of sunset similes and
early morning existentialism.
My sentences run on
with commas as hurdles
to jump over,
each stanza is a race
to get the idea across
in the most poetic way
possible.

I wake up to the sound of wind chimes, in the dead of the night.
Panicking, sweating.
It was a nightmare.
You were walking away from me and I didn't even try to stop you and I do not know which was scarier.
You, walking away or me, letting you.
Like the stench of a rotten pumpkin, our memories make me feel nauseous at times.
We hardly even talk, love.
The emojis betray us.
We are stuck in the most mundane of messes and we have blaring laughter screaming at us, from the 5 inch screen.-
YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL SOULβ€πβ€
WHO CARRIES LIGHT IN YOUR SMILE
AND LOVE IN YOUR WORDS β€πβ€-
How hard must it be to die
knowing you will never earn
the guilty prayers of your killer.-
This Halloween, let's use
the pumpkin for the pie
and not the mask.
It's not like we need masks
to seem scary anyway.-
You were the pumpkin of my sky..
And I was a bird...
Flying so high..
To find you
and to say " I Love U "
Using all the emojies of love, happiness and smiles..
I flied with my little feathers a miles..
Unexpectedly...
My feathers were broken
I was fallen...
Cried with a pain..
Tried to fly again,
was not too easy..
everything in life was messy !
I didn't say you my feelings....
My words were still mine...infact, nothing was fine .
Before knowing where is,
my eyes were opened...
and I was jiggerred....
Oh..!! It was a nightmare !
Then why i still feeling scare !

Five years ago,
Halloween,
Mom refused to allow me
to go to my friend's party,
Claiming she was busy
with our own party at home,
and my youngest sister needs
a chaperon,
I climbed to the veranda,
and watched my sister roam
around our street
in blue fairy costume,
carrying her pumpkin baskets,
together with her friends,
of sevens and eights,
they pushed neighbors' bells
for some candies to spare.
(continue in caption)-
Many believe that
my pumpkin smile
is enough to ward off
evil and nightmare,
even when I appear
on paper as emoji icons...-
