long night

the night was long

the moon a perfect crescent

and she missed him

memorable

make memories

travel

fall in love

experience lust and passion

break and heal hearts

for these very memorable moments

will last you a lifetime

living on…

That is the beauty of life

You still live on mom and dad

In my blood… and

In the blood of my children

Long after you are gone

parallel universe

let us all go

to a parallel universe

where all is good

want

what is it I want?

that would give me happiness

and loads of mental peace

masks

the masks have always been there

the kinds we could never see

the smile with the sad eyes

the lips with fake promises

were all masks

but

I prefer the ones I am wearing now

against the virus

for

my expressions are no longer visible

and

the freedom to be me

is liberating

thoughts

judge me not

for my poetry is nothing

but just my thoughts on paper

the replica

it was just the other day

i was a girl full of youth

but today

when i saw the mirror

i saw a replica of my mother

and then… all of a sudden

life came full circle

the dark

the dark

plays games with me

sometimes

makes me love the solitude

but

then suddenly

loneliness takes over

a slice of youth

 

peeping through

the stained window

seeing her grandchildren play

she

pined

for a slice of youth
