sadness – Kintsugi Arise

The Past, forgotten?

They tell me to forget my Past, They say memories are not meant to last. But I remember my best self with and without tears, Buried deep within the chapters of yester years. Hope was a constant companion, I was a rockstar, a formidable champion. Now I am told to just continue onward, The Past…

The Battle of Being

I am scared, but I am brave I am sad, but I am happy. I see chaos everywhere, But I seemed to be at peace. I am living, but slowly dying I am asleep and yet I am awake. I want to run away, But I know not where to run. I am grateful for…

Blessed

I am blessed, I am blessed, I am blessed I keep telling myself I am blessed. I am blessed that I endured and survived, At the gates of success, I arrived. I am blessed I fell a million times Yet got up a million one times. I am blessed, I am blessed, I am blessed,…

I Am My Own Worst Enemy

Be careful of strangers they said, Be weary of men with hidden agendas, they said. But no one ever told me to be careful Of the one in the mirror, with eyes so shameful. Be careful of the world which is so selfish and dangerous, Someone is waiting to stab you with a smile so…

Prayer

Dear God Help me understand the difference between what is temporary and what is permanent And help me prioritize accordingly. Help me understand the difference between what is genuine and what is superficial And help me appreciate accordingly. Help me understand the difference between what is in my hand and what is not in my…

One day…

One day I will be free of the love… Just as I was free of the hate. One day I will learn to live again… Just as my heart was so desperate to abate. One day the sky will be blue somehow As the thunder storms within me take a bow… One day the chariots…

The Storm

He removed the feathers off her wings He challenged her intellect, she no longer sings He betrayed her hope, her every desire Till her heart broke, then burnt in fire Beware, be very aware the storm is coming… His eyes had a gaze that lied to her His words had a knife that pierced through…

I am…

I am dark, destitute in my emotion I am queer, a prostitute in my affliction I am chained, a soul with no heart and no dignity I am madness personified, cheating my own morality. I prefer to be hated, tortured and absolutely nothing less I want you to crush me, stab me and be painfully…
