It hurts...
When I am no longer your first choice to call or text....

It hurts...
To know your whereabouts through the status update...

It hurts...
When my messages are left unread...

It hurts...
To see you getting involved with someone else...

It hurts...
When I am no longer a priority....

It hurts...
To realise that I was so easily replaceable...

-

Replaceable !!!

Except few, we all are replaceable,
Doesn't matter how important are you,
Someone will replace you,
Or has to share time with you,
You are the one who replaced someone,
This game of life, goes on and on,
With time people find, better person than you,
And you get replaced by someone better.

-

Do you think my heart is replaceable?
So that I can replace another heart, for another.

-

I eventually become
the replaceable person
In almost everyone's life

-

Everything is replaceable until
your own golden spoon goes missing.
Everything is replaceable until
something that's yours goes downhill.

Your moka pot, how can it be lost?
You took such good care of it in the past.
Her grandma's stolen silver chain,
Come on, cheer up, don't spend the day in vain.

You place everyone too far to care
and hug yourself too close to lose,
not knowing that objects in the mirror
are closer than they appear.

Whenever there's a ripple in your home
and a newly formed dent in your hope,
you don't want to replace, but repair,
and things to go back to what they were- unscathed.

-

'Everyone is replaceable'!

-

“I get jealous because I know how
easily replaceable I am.
I know I'm no one special."

EPHEMERAL

papery wings
of tiny moths form mats
on the window screen
every time one leaves
I stare at the empty patch
waiting to be filled
and in comes another

I don't know if I adore moths
but I've seen more miserable moths
always ready to fill in spaces
than brilliant butterflies all my life
choosing bright spots under the sun
I remember my father, and the man
my mother married

I look at myself in the mirror
then I move away
and stare at the space
in the mirror's face
reflecting something else now

-

My heart says, it's just me to you.
But my mind knows that I am
easily replaceable.

-

I loved you with my life
Yet my love was trampled on
As If it was some sort of trash
I gave you my youth
Yet you left me without a second thought
Where did I go wrong
What was my fault in loving you
Why did you give me Hope
When you were the one who broke my Dream
Why was I not Enough for you
You looked at me with disgrace
Yet I yearned to find that
One look of love in your eyes
But all I saw was Emptiness
As if i didn't exist in your eyes
That shattered me into pieces
I was engulfed in pain
Yet you were not soothing me
But you inflicted that immense ache in my heart
Our years spent together was nothing
But my wishful thinking
I am nothing in your eyes anymore
Someone took my place
Was I that easily replaceable
Am I not Enough
Or maybe
I was never good Enough for you.
