Premium Member Missing You
It's a funny strange thing When you're not around Like the lack of a smile On a circus clown Or a ferris wheel, With all empty seats a candied apple, More tart than sweet Like a merry-go-round That looks kind of scary Or that huge prize teddy You're not here to carry An amusement park, On a winters day And as...

Missing You
Missing you is like missing a shot, It's so very painful because everyone puts the blame of you, It's been a little over 2 years since, July 3, 2021, You were able to see my mom get married again, Though you weren't sitting in a chair down with us, And you didn’t know how to use technology, But I don't think you...

lost my friend to Bipolar
JY and I met through a mutual friend in 1991. We strucked a deal with a handsome transaction, In which we both were in a win-win situation. Since then, we became close friends, Every week, she travelled a long way to see me, Made big efforts bringing sample of deserts. Which she made and delivered to many shops, Displayed closed to the...

Shall I Compare You
Shall I Compare You... ? Shall I compare you to the sun? Shining and warm, my dearest one Shall I compare you to the moon? Unique and bright, my greatest boon Shall I compare you to the light? Illuminating what not of sight Shall I compare you to the knight? in honour and dignity willing to fight Shall I compare you to the Queen? Admiring...

Death came today... taking my sweet Jess from me; to an even better place, I pray, than this life we shared so passionately. If only I could just hold her, keep her a moment more; but alas, God has called for her, now she sleeps evermore. So many small things I should have told her,...

Long Distance
He speaks in soft, remembered tones, From London flats with aching bones. An Eelam Tamil, far from home, Yet never truly all alone. Love is away from him, But believes his love will get rid of his dim. Across the world, where gum trees sway, She wakes in Shepparton each day. A Malaysian Tamil, steady, bright, Chasing dawns in southern light. Different times, separated love, Their...

The empty corridor of distance stretches long and dark between us. Silence, like a deepening shadow, lengthens as no words redeem us. Time, an ancient kindly neighbor, promises a light will come; a dawn to break the bonds of night, and love, your love, to take me home. ...

The Worst Caregiver in the World
I watched my sister fading away. She did as she was told Day after miserable day. Do this, don't do that, It's bad for you, good for you, Mustn't get fat. Could Nurse Ratched not see The harm that she caused? The pain she inflicted Gave me pause. Play by the rules, Sound advice for some fools, But not for this one. I make my own...

Dear One
Dragging my pen along the walls of the well, The ink of meaningful words runs dry, Blind to who you've become, and serving only to dampen empty sockets, The misty drops of moments lost become the meaningless tears I cry, And the blink of the eyeless is, likewise, frivolous nictation, For it was yesterday upon them your image permanently seared, And...

i should walk away. i know that. i rehearse it, mouth the words like a prayer i don’t believe in. but you’re standing there, and it’s already too late. she trusts me. he trusts you. we are the knives in their backs, still warm with guilt. you smile and my ribs crack open like old doors in a storm. i don’t want this. but i do. i wish wanting you felt more like...

TORN 2025
I can’t change, and you can’t change. We are two separate people with two separate hearts. When did this road shred apart? I can’t force this love anymore; I am lost in deep thought. Emotional pain hurts, but when you add mental games and a teaspoon of lies, it becomes as ugly as a newborn...

LATE NIGHTS
Late-night talks have always been the best. The love I have for you is priceless. I don’t want anyone but you; you have to be mine. I need those late-night conversations. I want to feel reconnected with you and ensure that this love will last forever. I need to know if this love is permanent....

I miss you. Maybe I should tell you. Maybe I should tear through the distance with something as simple, as foolish, as a “hey, you crossed my mind.” But what if you see my name and feel tired? What if my hello feels like a burden you forgot to put down? What if I am the ache you no longer want to revisit? I...
