And in that moment of forced togetherness
I felt like the boy eating off the filth of a paper city
I realised I’m forcing the same trash through my heart
In craving to be someone’s priorityVasvi Gupta – excerpt from Reversed Smiles
Find the specific details on why you loved this person, and it’s okay to find yourself still loving this person, but you have to see that these qualities do exist with a person who’s waiting for you, who’s even willing to give you more.
Let go of the fantasy. Loss is a good place to love yourself more and work on forgiving yourself more.
Baby, don’t think that the time you spent with that person was lost for it has prepared you for this very moment, our conversation here.
Heartache may lead to the suicide of the mind but never of the soul.

End of Bliss
Redux
Love, becoming one.
Intensity together.
Then pain. Two again.

Excised
i’ve clawed you from my head
a million times
the memories of you duller
but still there
each attempt at erasure
stings a little less
i will be rid of you
soon
Reblog – Burn by Stephen Allen
Yes. It is.
These dreams like ashes float away
a voice I never heard
only ever silence
where were you when hearts bled?
I never thought you’d deceive me
where are you now?
can you stand the pain?
how long will you let it burn?
This pain slowly smouldering
a lesson you never learned
is your world just a broken promise?
is your love just a drop of rain?

Reblog – SHE HOPES FOR MORE – ENCORE by Charles Robert Lindholm
Yes. More is better…
By Charles Robert Lindholm
she’s so loving
and yet unloved
so caring
though she’s neglected
she’s giving
but never given to
a beautiful lady
who lives life unadmired

Reblog – deceit by George Ellington
Betrayals always cut with precision and excruciatingly deep. The emotions expressed in this piece are spot on. Well done – George!
it was not until her voice
had faded
that mine unmanfully died
whimpering
over an unspoken chorus
of arrogant
and deeply impersonal lies
composed
by an artisan of such brilliant
artifice
Reblog – Piece by Weronika Donovan
How many of us have gone through this feeling of lost connections? Too many, I fear. When I first read this piece, it reminded me of a favorite song of mine – Lost on You by LP. It’s the same message – loss of a connection. Weronika echoed that song but compressed the sentiments into this exquisite short piece. Bravo!
In that moment
I felt that
there is a piece
a piece of me
which I’ve missed
which cannot be found.
By me
by you
by anybody.
A piece that was lost
many years ago
amid desert’s sands
of our relationship.

how does a friend
look you in the eye
skipping not a beat
telling you an untruth
how does a friend
feel good about that
then just move along
without a conscience
how does a friend
call themselves a friend
a person who can be trusted
a person you can feel close to
how does a friend
continue to act innocent
double down on the original lie
get defensive and shame you
how does a friend
think to remain a connection
when truth means so little
when respect goes out the window
friends don’t do that
