Dead End

  -

  -

What do you do when there's no other way but to start again with nothing?
*Friend, this is made for you.

-

-

Tears gently fell off

The curve of your cheeks

Bringing with it

All your love for me,

Or the little that is left.

You spoke of words

I once told you,

Of promises I never kept,

And times I never showed up,

You spoke without a heart.

With your blank stares

And matching indifference

I realized that this is the end,

For me, Never for you.

I lost your love for me.

Of Candles & Cakes

Who do you wish for?

-

-

I blew a wish

Towards the fire

And prayed that the wind

Carried it all,

Not just bits and pieces

Of my song,

But everything

My heart longs for.

I hoped that those

Who ate slices of the cake

Did not devour my wishes

Because if that's the case

Then my only desire

Will come running down

The dirty drain,

My future gone into the sewer.

I felt the wind

Blowing against me

And in that instant

I saw all the dreams

Carried by the wind,

The very wind that carried 

My birthday wishes,

I started praying.

I asked the heavens to not let 

The wind blow against you.

I don't want you to know

That my wishes are about you,

It's a secret between me and God

Just like how we kept things

between us.
