Reposting 'Chasing Shadows'

Chasing shadows I keep on scratching the irritation on my skin As close as you have been The welts on my skin keep on reminding me Wounds bore of pure affection For this I begot by having you near me A kindred spirit in many ways Sacrificed and sacrificing As was proven by the sting marks we both...

Corruption of the prudes

Kisses so sweet Surely they are laced with poison Brothers in arms Laying on lust thickly Make them beg for more Give them carnal pleasures Make them feel wanted Seduce their minds with glee Witness them revel in decadent needs Avenue of purity has come to an end All they recount to each other is...

Glory in the morning

The alarm rings again I am happy to hear its noise For today I have another opportunity To improve on my tomorrow Yesterday was there My miseries were at large But with the sandman’s blessings I was afforded sleep So I rejoice again at the sound of the alarm The same pigeon’s cooing at my window...

The passing of a TV Star

I still see your face amazingly enough Though your life came to a screeching halt I pain as though you were my kin It feels as though I have lost a sister Your character was nothing else but that Just another character on my silver screen Surely you had a personality beyond that Because the space...

Names on stone tablets

Rows and rows of faces unknown Neighboured together in their after life Acquainted together in a silent town No need for potato salad Where they are it is found in abundance Their six feet deep beds hold them forever Pity tears are shed for them after all this years Obituaries are their only...

Studying for Management test…

Private thoughts, Seeping out into the public. Shameful wishes, Creeping out for all to see. That’s how it felt, The moment I realised I was caught. Stickier than a spider’s web. More deep than a sink hole, That’s how I fell. Places I thought I’d never visit, Taken over by one swift flight. Glorious... Sign in to see full entry.

Though time will tell

Nice as thought life may seem, The walks of it are filled with terror. The raging thunders, Sending fear into our hearts. Dark and dangerously Thunderstorms brew. Soulless and insignificant, It is how some people are. Jolly and understandable, It’s how we’re supposed to be. Birds seize to fly, As... Sign in to see full entry.

The Plot Thickens

Hmmm...this has rather become very strange I must say. Remember earlier I told you guys about my mishaps with V Day? Well about an hour after my previous entry, I received a dozen red roses!!!!! This is the first time in my 23 years of life I have ever gotten such. And to say I felt blessed beside... Sign in to see full entry.

Totally off the plot

Hmm... Today is one of those days that some of us dread with all their being. As much as I'd like to say I don't care about Valentine's Day and it means nothing to me...surely I can't lie about the fact that it always reminds that it's yet another year in my life where I am alone and I don't get to...

Rebroadcasting estrangement

You gave an appraising smile A certificate of acceptance to what you saw Naivety of youth building boundaries Conveying messages of walls built high Your smile yet never seized The sparkle in your eyes said you appreciated Hence the reason you took my hand And led me to run away with you and fade...

The stuff that comes out when you are guilt ridden

Quiet rooms of despair Leading to desolate moments Where life is seen in brown Crowds looking pale Even though the sun is blazing upon them No need for cover For the skin is already dead No damage can be caused any more It’s not necessary to cry We buried it a decade ago Let it all go Move on Forget...

During Electrical Machines

What lies ahead, Is as obscure as what lay behind. Often wondering about things we ought to know, Only to find out, It is things we already knew. Pain becoming part of one’s being. Just like joy, When it left the body. Tears taking over, Where laughter used to reign. Heartache bringing calmness,... Sign in to see full entry.

Paranoia

It’s more like the pneumonia of the brain, The tight feeling that you get in your chest, When walls start moving in on you. Lights dimming, Friendly smiles feeling like jeers. Deepest wells, Blackest holes, Just like your empty heart. Crazy feelings, Murderous thoughts, Remembering your tortured... Sign in to see full entry.

Four-paged letter, six-part SMS

You chuckle at me My intentions have yet again been misconstrued You think I am too much My elaborate utterances seem to go above you I have been questioned of my intentions before But never as you have now made me feel It is not much to ask you to read between the lines Yet you claim I am playing...

Night of the Incubus

Chiselled featured Brown eyed lad Looming figure, piercing gaze Object of the forgotten world Spearheading young maidens’ fantasies For his decadent pleasures Only those pure of heart Escape the recurrent seduction Of the son of darkness Shadowing over wayward hearts Quiet, cold, full-mooned nights...

Almost Half There (the last chapter and verses)

I sat back, stunned by what I just read. I just couldn’t believe how this guy was. Even now, all of this just seemed puzzling to me. But why? I asked myself, as tears clouded my eyes. I started crying, not knowing exactly the state I was in. “But why me?” I said to the tombstone, in between sobs. “I... Sign in to see full entry.

A beautiful pain (excerpt)

I heard a faint knock at the door. I realised what a compromising position I had put myself in. What if somebody were to see me like this? I asked myself. I looked over at my arm, and I saw some bloodstains seeping through the bandage. I made my way to the closet as the knocking kept on. I took out... Sign in to see full entry.

Almost Half There (excerpts)

My head felt like it was stuffed with cotton wool. I just couldn’t make sense of what was going on around me, or where I was for that matter. Somebody was running their hand on my head, and I’ve to say, it felt pretty good. I could hear that the person was speaking in a male voice, but I couldn’t... Sign in to see full entry.

Almost Half There

As I was busy dreaming about eating a triple scoop of chocolate mousse ice cream, somebody touched my shoulder – waking me up from my oh-so heavenly dream. “If you don’t mind,” I started, as I turned around to see my would-be nemesis. “Hey girl,” Eric said with his warm smile, but I’ve to say, he...

Girl in captivity

Choices made Neither good nor bad But consequence surely sour She tastes the bitterness Never disregard that She feels it She knows this is not home See her smile The beauty of her youth Her actions are flawed But even that is relative Theirs is a journey we travelled Filled with whimsical fancies...
