Silence

To those times you hurt me,

I believed in you,

I trusted you,

But you tainted me.

I blamed myself everyday,

I still do.

I feel filthy,

And it’s all because of you.

Who are you?

Why do you hold so much power over me?

A friend, a neighbor, a relative, a stranger.

You told me to stay silence,

And silence I remained.

I was so young,

And I was so naive.

Why did I stay silent?

To let you roam free.

Some days, I am uplifted,

And others, I am a sunken ship.

You remain in my nightmares,

And even my day dreams.

Many nights, I have cried myself to sleep.

Still feeling the guilt as you roam free.

Should I be guilty?

It’s no fault of my own!

But, I still feel the guilt,

Because you roam free.

You told me to be calm,

And calm I remained.

Still feeling the guilt,

As you roam free.

Fish

Here’s to those fish that wander free,

Swimming through the waves of the seas,

Thoughts at bay, just enjoying the reef,

For now, as there are no predators to beat!

Morning

Dewey grass, 

Soft rays, 

Chirping birds, 

A nourished soul.

The Match

Bumble, Tinder, Hinge,

Left, right, matches galore,

An elementary greeting, 

Empty conversations, 

Pen pals in abundance, 

Coffee or drinks, 

Right or wrong, 

Decisions made, 

Black dress, 

Blue shirt, 

Outfits to choose, 

Jittery nerves, 

Concise or profound, 

Conversations found, 

Tick tock, tick tock, 

Either quick chats, 

Or a long while, 

Mysterious departures, 

Up or down emotions, 

Mysteries to unfold, 

To follow or not follow, 

Is the question, 

The everlasting conundrum.
