To A Better Life — Day Thirty of NaPoWriMo 202
I’ve seen beings grow,
witnessed them age,
Those wrinkles have stories to tell,
of sacrifice,

talk of their life,

That their wishes and dreams were shattered,
by the funnel of … Continue Reading

I ate my favourite snacks that day,
Happy, that I had blown her away.… Continue Reading

“What is life, what is love?
Are you at your best, have you settled well?”
Dear me at twelve,
I assure you, I don’t know just as yet
All the risks you take:
Skipping classes, begging for more game time,
Pulling her hair (you know who),
eating everyone’s food,… Continue Reading
An Ode to Your Comfort Zone by Yours Truly—Day Twenty Five NaPoWriMo 2022
Your reading list? Long
Your watch-list? Longer
What is it about me?
That a new book or show makes you rigour
I thought I am your favourite
With every scene and page, I thought you were savouring it
I used to look at you
And cherish how you sought … Continue Reading
