Unquiet
Trueā¦I donāt feel calm around your presenceāyou overpower me.My emotions,my energy,my control.Even in moments of prayer,if you pass by,your aura drowns mineāeven my spiritual one.I shake my head a thousand timesjust to erase your facefrom my sightā¦But my eyes stay stuck.My heart still hopesfor miraclesāfor scenariosthat will never happen.It burns me.Burns my identity,my truth,my beliefs.You twist everything inside meāmaking me calm one second,and restless the next.Sometimes,I feel the sadness in you,a heavy unhappiness.Other timesāyouāre someone else entirely.Regardless,I consume you.Why?Why are you doing this?When I stay away to protect myself,you appear againātearing down my wallslike they never mattered.Not even a flicker of mercyfor the weight I carry,the harshness Iāve faced.Why canāt…

Too Holy to Name
I keep sayingIām ready to let goābut my fingers hesitateat the thought of changing passwordsthat still hide your name. Your shadow still sitsin the soft corners of my lifepulling me towards youeven when you donāt belong here. I still see your facewhen I blink too long.Feel it, mimic itāyour smile,your eyes,your words,your charm. The way you nourishedwithout needing to try.

There is wealth in your laughter,light in your stillness,blessing in your touch,abundance on your face. Like a goddessātoo holy to name.Still…

Eye Contact
Even one second of eye contact with you Fills me with rout The calmness on your face makes me wonder, What your loudest mind is thinking about? Do you still feel uncomfortable around me or Consider having a word, before heading out? All these questions about our encounters Just leave me thirsty in this hopeless drought You must have forgotten the laughs we shared But am I good at goodbyes? Having a self-doubt The day you left in a questionable manner Made me think, was I happy with you or without? The curiosity to solve this puzzle is so draining That Iām killing myself everyday, having a burnout And your…
