He said it is the land of dreams,the land of the free. I said nothing in return. He said it is unlike anything we have ever seen before and nothing in our ‘silly little village’ […]

something borrowed
When I was 15 I never knew what a break up feels like.I thought gifting cards from Hallmark,staying up late to talk on the phone about homework and what happened in school,and occasional holding hands […]
The mint that saved my breath
I do not like breathing with my mouth open.I do not like to talk much.I feel everyone would be able to smell the things decaying inside of me and I would give off the horrible […]
This might sound a bit strange but the truth is it is easier for me to be happy for strangers.Also it is more sincere when I feel sad for them.When I do not know people’s stories it is easier to accept them….
I dont know if this is for everybody but there is something I want from people I know…maybe acknowledgement…maybe time…maybe love…or maybe acceptance…it is different with each person…but then with strangers…I have nothing I want…I can be selfless… I can be honest..I mean I am honest with people I LOVE but then there is a bit of selfishness in that I secretly hope that they reciprocate the same…
Expectation is always the main cause of disappointment and since I do not expect anything from strangers there is not way I am to be disappointed with them…I guess if we all were strangers instead of being family and friends…this world would be less strange.. or maybe not..
Her dark night
Saw loud fireworks
Because of my rocket
I saved her
from loving herself
with the greens in my pocket
When she begged for mercy
I moaned with pleasure
I was roaring
as a self declared king
but
my territory was limited in blankets
I declared her queen
because she was my treasure
at least for that moment
I promised to keep her in my heart
”Hearts are suffocating”she said
”I would rather live by pockets
for I am
the entire
infinity in a night
that can make rockets like yours
disappear
as if it never existed…”
”So…you were saying you saved me?
Alas!
it was you who needed saving the most”
(blows away cigarette puffs like she was having a conversation based on world politics…still calm and with poise..while his rocket has now landed in neverland..)
”It’s okay ..I’m habituated to this..”
”But how can you be? This is not acceptable!”
”It’s okay I will manage”
”NO! You should not! Why did you not ask for more?”
”What do you mean more?”
‘‘How can this be enough???”
”This is just how it has been actually people get way lesser I am fortunate to be getting this even now”
‘‘You are not just People..this is a serious issue! WHY ARE YOU ADJUSTING AND BEING CONTENT IN SO LESS?”
”I would not want to loose even the little I have now”
”But you are getting way less than you deserve”
”If I do not know what I deserve..how do you?”
”Because I can see you and you can not!”
Long pause
Gratitude in eyes
Smile that expresses Thank-you in a million different ways just by being sincere
Loss of words have never been so comforting.
