THE BROKEN HEART

By -
He didn't kiss me hard
so I wasn't afraid of my lips swelling.

He kissed me with care
Chasing away the fear

He took his time not to hurt me
The gentility, kindnesses, nothing to worry.

When he went slowly,
I was afraid he would stop.

But if he went too quickly
My heart would swoon and drop.

Too bad it was all a dream.
A vivid reality, locked in a bizarre realm.

I can't stop crying,
Or maybe I should


But the tears keep spilling,
The heart keeps breaking
Reminding me of why I should have ran.

The world keeps spinning
The tears keep falling
Reminding me of how it began.

I promised myself to be strong.
It wouldn't hurt anymore

Now I've broken my promise, I am wrong.
Because of him, the runaway love.

THE SOCIETY DICTATES:

1. EGO This piece is for my ego that criticizes others for the mistakes it only recently stopped making, for depending too much while raising the flags of independence, screaming for immunity. This piece is for my ego that just became what it is because others had let it down so many times, and when it climbed back up, it rockets to the skies, never to come down again. This piece is for my ego, the hypocritical bastard that pretends not to care, but deeply worries about how humanity threads the edge of oblivion. This piece is for my ego, the self centered subconscious that is well aware of the mistakes I make, yet gives a perfect excuse to carry on. This piece is for my ego that shelters the abilities of mischief, yet treads with grace on thorns that pricks all the way to the spine. This piece is for my ego, that tells openly what I despise, yet accompanies me to do the same to others, with the reasons that I have withstood the same. This piece is for my ego, that won...

Unguarded Faith

Author: Zahra It was your fake smile that spoke to me the way your eyebrows never drew in I was always supposed to leave But even nature finally had to bow. Your heart sang to me I had never heard such melody Your words; they wound like vines In your hands, my soul wept in jeopardy. Reality snuck in like a night thief from a broken window, your emotions escaped My love sought for you shouting in pain But you'd grown wings and flown. Still here, my heart wide open for you My ears are ready to listen to your lies So I'll keep on walking towards you Perhaps you'll realize you also have to stay. Pieces of my imagination, my unfounded hope You don't exist, and things will change Maybe you do exist, and my life is unfair But I'll wait with unguarded faith till you're mine.
