#midnight poetry

Words whispered

in bedsheets

made me believe

we were in love

Day #8 of convincing Taylor Swift that I can be one of her songwriters

I fall in love again and again

As I see you

I fall in love with your smell

I fall in love with your eye colour too

Covered with layers

Tangled, soft and fluffy hair

Spreading unevenly

As you push them to clear your air

My perfection starts from you

The way you move

The smile which makes me happy

And makes me groove

Plump lips under the ocean I seek

And a dimple on one side

As your ears move

As soon as you smile

The way your eyes are shaped

Like the God himself carved

Every word it utters

Can only be read by my heart

The soft skin

And the roughness of shave

A perfect combination

As I move my fingers

From your eyes to your face

I feel your hug

Listening to my favourite song

Where your voice

Feels like a treasure I longed

[loveafallenstar]

Won't you count the stars tonight

as I fall asleep in your arms?

they say if you count each one

they'll grant you any wish

youll ever seek

What would I wish for?

What a silly question.

sitting here,

with the entire world twinkling in your eyes

and skin that glows brighter

than a thousand setting suns

I don't need to look up to make a wish

I just need to pull you in closer

and whisper into your lips

" Stay. "

Mitne ka shauk kise hai?

Mujhe to shaq-e-kamal hai

Logo ke baaton mein ake,

Khud se khafa hone ka

Khud ko bhula Dene ka shauk hai.

There is no proof I lived

No pictures framed

No memories captured

No voices recorded

Most everything forgotten

Midnight Breeze 🌃

Feel like slipping out through my window Even while the door is right there Like prowling the streets Without a care Take my favorite knife with me Make any encounter a bit more fair A nice wool coat Fighting the urge to cut my hair You know I've been looking for an escape Everyone's expectations have been too much I don't like the games they've been playing And I wonder what would happen If I settled it tonight In the streets of fair Verona Under the pale moonlight Could be your angel of the alleyway Stalking my way down the road I don't do much on Saturdays So this is my idea of a thrill Following your shadow To see where you go These games have been too much for me I feel a need to runaway, leave my bed empty for the night I have the itching need to be like the midnight breeze

[duskytaless]

I reached the end, and I felt relieved the journey was over. I could finally rest. But, who was I kidding? A new one started right away. Now, what do I do with the fatigue from the last journey?

I forgot end is also a beginning. Life is a cycle. It has no end and beginning. We, tiny humans want to add a start and an end to forget Life's length is immeasurable. What we need to walk this long lentgh is to learn to rest while we take the journey.

a poem i wrote at 3 am :

"best friends?"

we don't talk anymore...

but we used to be best friends

you were the best person I knew,

the constant source of confidence, admiration and support I needed,

you believed in me when i didn't,

you told me all sorts of things, funny and serious,

the way we gossiped, and could make each other laugh with the slightest effort,

the way you smiled and laughed at my not-so-funny jokes,

you were with me when I needed you

you were always there for me through my ups and downs,

you're the one I turned to when I needed advice,

your hug felt like free therapy,

and I was so grateful to have you in my life...

you were my best friend,

sometimes i wish you weren't...

we were kids back then;

now we barely talk, let alone laugh ...

now I rarely see you in real life,

and your pictures on social media always seem so nice,

you with your new friends

smiling and giggling, like we used to...

now we do not gossip anymore,

we no longer laugh together

we are not in each other's lives anymore

yet we still like to pretend we are,

we send each other texts every now and then

to check up on the other,

not being totally understanding of each other's problems,

we grew distant

we grew apart, more than we wanted to

and now we are just stuck in this stupid relationship,

where we keep trying to be there for each other,

we are always trying to keep our non-existent friendship alive,

knowing damn well that this friendship died a long time ago,

we were young, too scared to let go of each other's hands

scared of the big bad world

two little girls, standing together, facing the world with courage...

and now we are nothing,

we aren't even friends let alone being best friends...

and that's fine, because I grew to accept fate

we were never meant to be forever,

i wished we were, but it's time we move on,

people come and people go,

and restoring friendships has no effect on me anymore...

so finally i can say that

im glad that we don't talk anymore.

lift me up

away from bed.

sick of random stuff–

awh fuck my head!!!

i wanted to write a poem...

i guess its not going great :(

im going to throw him

into the hellsites streets!

never to be seen again,

never to be seen by anyone,

except 2 notes from a friend,

3 months after i thought it was gone.

what the hell is this? i dont know.

[thespilledink]

I am sorry So sorry I apologize for things that are out of my control which you in fact know and in no way hold me accountable for Yet I take on this burden Like it’s a lesson I must learn Like the thoughts that echo viciously in my ears screaming on repeat my smallest and biggest fears will make me feel more Worthy of your time but If I had a dime for every hateful thought I wage on myself I could buy you the world and I still wouldn’t be good enough for you -h.h.

[gnomiwizard]

So if this is how I go, then this place will surely follow.

...

Pulled down into the deep, I'm awake but I'm asleep,

I try to scream, I try to weep, but you cant do that in a dream.

I see the patterns, see the themes, see it all torn at the seams,

See that nothing's as it seems, horrors taken to the extremes.

...

Flatlining is face whiting, and so is waking to the sound without anyone around.

[persephonediary]

Bitter insomnia comes to light its candles ... Time is not a bed, the earth is not sleep ... A room betrayed by sleep No dream And night is a grave.

Day #11 of convincing Taylor Swift that I can be one of her songwriters

5 shades of red

I was holding onto you

for the sake of your miseries

all the unlearned truths I faced

being a good person in your polluted breeze

I thought, I could be the soft spot

where you can fall whenever you want

I didn't expect much

but I was just a nice person standing against your wall

now I realise those were your shades reflecting

all the five shades of red I saw in you

naming the first one

an immature baby, playing the victim card, looking screwed

second are your ways to get on my nerves

you said I was your only choice and I had many

okay, I accept the compliment

coz they would've been with you only if you worked on your inner enemies

how you caged me in your tactics

twisted, mystic parties you held

the curtains were wet, drenched in your tears

and I was the one to clean up the mess

another darker shade of yours

was to make me feel loved

then taking it all away

coz I didn't attend your party for once

you blamed me for all the horizons

I wish you were a little consious

to make a move and make it better

but the fire inside you was ignited by other people

the last hue of red in you

is it to push me away and said you wanted me

Bruh remember when I came up to you with a handkerchief

and you said in your heavy voice, "Right now, there's no one I want to see"

[loveafallenstar]

I want to be your partner in crime

tell me your desires

and I'll sow your darkest design.

I'll snap their bones

and tear out their hearts

I'll bring down so much hellfire

even their souls will smolder

with the ashes I leave behind

So tell me their names,

breath out the words.

l'll be your monster,

just say the word.

They say venguence has no winners

but I would win

to have that carefree smile

on your lips once more.
