Erosion

Your melody drips into my life

Uninvited, unwanted, yet unresisted

You claw through the cracks

In my eyes and call it love.


Uninvited, unwanted, yet unresisted,

Your symphonies rain heavy as

They burst through the cracks

Melodically, rhythmically


You breathe life into what had none before.

You give the echos of my mind purpose.

As you claw through the cracks, and chinks, and holes,

In my eyes...

A Busker’s Misunderstanding

TDH

6 min read

I didn’t mean to stop and stare like that - but I couldn’t help it. It was… hypnotic, to say the least; every word rang out harmoniously, every note resonated vigorously - yet, despite all that colour, it remained calm in nature, his words eloquently cutting away at my worries and distractions till all I could do was focus on him.


Alas, it didn’t seem like the world wanted me to feel such peace f...

ā€œThe only thing we ever get enough of is love; and the only thing we never give enough of is love.ā€


ā€œā€¦ Why are you saying this now?ā€


ā€œSimple: I’m going to give you all the love you couldn’t be bothered to give me - in my own way.ā€


And then, warmth.


How could something so cold feel so warm? My stomach felt as though it had been brushed up against a radiator, yet at the same time its numb with f...

The Texture Of Separation

You sit next to me,

You talk, you laugh,

We talk, we laugh,

Yet it’s never anything more,

Never anything

less.


You walk with me,

But at the same time,

My Sunlight.

TDH

1 min read

The sky tasted of sunlight.

When you walked by my side,

My eyes saw scents, my worries were paperweight,

My skin heard the music of the world, opened wide

Like a treasure chest, bursting, brimming

With walks, talks, ice creams, sunsets, telling

A story of what we couldn’t become,

Unrequited love under a spiteful sun.


The sky cried in sunlight.

It opened its heavenly bowels,

Filling my clarity, in...

Cost Of Deceit

ā€œBro I promise you, this one is the one.ā€


I looked onto the room, yellow and black tapes all over the floor, officers walking back and forth with officious zeal, as if this was just another work day. I looked st the blood-stained marble, the black chalk outline - the only memento he left behind.


I should’ve realised the first time he introduced me to her. He can be so… so lovestruck, so blinded ...

Walking through those many people I saw

You standing all alone on this fine eve

I could not help myself, for what I saw

A girl most beautiful like none I’ve seen.


You, standing all alone on this fine eve

Your velvet coat a shield from all around

A girl most beautiful like none I’ve seen

Can’t spend an eve like this with naught but sound.


Your velvet coat a shield from all around,

You stood the...

My Confession

TDH

1 min read

Confession is my key.

It opens the doors of my mind

And lets thoughts run free

Giving me ample room to find

Whatever excuses I can

To justify why I ran.


Confession is my door.

It closes all room left for doubt

Gives security, what I’m looking for,

Saves me from the utter drought

Of sympathy that surrounds me

Sympathy I don’t deserve, really.


Confession is my room.

Comfort I feel here is unmatc...

What A Sight.

TDH

1 min read

Free winds gingerly played and rolled over my flowing hair, filling my lungs with unfiltered purity. The sea stretched endless, completely uninterrupted, overpowering the scene as it reached for the horizon, tickling the sky with its colossal waves.


And oh, the sky; an amalgamation of opulence and untainted innocence, with pure white clouds moving with lethargic elegance, decorating the deep ora...

To Those We Leave Behind.

1 min read

You’ve left me.

Without remorse you took flight

Spread your wings in your eye-catching fashion

Stretched out and captured the whole world

Captured my world, left me with nay but a burn

A burning feeling that ripped my heart into

Tiny little rainbows everytime I saw your face,

Yet now you’re gone

And so is your love, withdrawn

From me, my kriptonite

The blissful pain I felt in seeing you from afa...
