//shape of my home//

the hard bone of my ribs,
they caved in
probably last summer
I might have been aching since then

a cavity in the pit of stomach
carved by my broken ribs
the shape of a home

I sat by the window seats
of racing buses
looking for a home
that fit in the mold
made by sunken bones,
the one that I had scraped on me
last summer.

A quiet whisper at times,
A harrowing echo of screams sometimes
I keep hearing that song
in so many colours.

A maze
I have lost myself in,
the quiet labyrinth
of your azure eyes.

A trap
Of iron chains I am tied to,
the demure lilts
of your velvety voice.

With the arcane art
of unknown alchemy,
A lure to the abyss
Of magic carried
by the shadow of
A talisman....

Through the cracks
littered on my soul,
I let the chilly winds
in, to soothe the burns
left behind
by his blistering hands....

As I lay here
Torn open in this void,
I realised,
I might have been writing poetries
For a paper moon
Pasted on a scrap
Of scorched sky....

Being kind is so powerful

Those with weak souls
are not capable of it....

Sometimes I think
we might have been
written on these walls
with a piece of chalk,
And maybe that is why
each time when
it rains upon us,
we get washed away
word by word...

Ruby skies watching
the emerging phoenix from my ashes,
An ode to my crimson beginnings...
