Hide

Your truthful words made me hide in shame..
Your words were pure and true
only reflecting what I love about you..
But love I hide now in shame.. 
I am greedy
Unprincipled
Self-centered
.....
So I hide

Tar

Violent madness the sort accompanied by wails and screams..
No calm emptiness of a lobotomy to free.
Just thoughts that pour like boiling tar through me...
Enough enough!!

Porcelain

Scorched earth and pouring rain
From both, shade I seek.
This withered tree is all I see
So over the cliff I run
Hoping for a quick respite.
A world this cruel
A life this fragile

Conversation in the absence of words

The beads of sweat..
whispers a wish for shade.
The feigned interest in the fish-eye stare
murmurs of masked disgust.
The furrowed crinkle
rustle the doubts within me.
The rumour of a smirk
sighs curses from afar.

At sea

Burning behind my eyes
A tightness squeezes my head
tired thoughts swim
A sea of fire and ash

Hollow

Wallow
how long will i wallow?
Shallow

How shallow can I be?

Hollow

As hollow as drift wood?

Callow

Would i ever learn? 

Impotent

I am bored of this game...
My heart is too tired..
This stoic resignation is all I have..
watching you run around in the dark, I sit impotent.

As I crush my dignity with guilt and insecurity.
Unable to squash my ego I wait for annihilation.
Impotent to bring it upon myself, I watch you run around in the dark.

I cannot look you in the eye, all I see is myself falling from grace.
As I fall I scream at my impotence.
So silently I urge you to push me.
