Don't let your throat tighten with fear. Take sips
of breath all day and night, before death closes
your mouth..


He tailored it for laughing,
Behind all laughs were indigent tears.
Rolling down his cheeks in annihilation.
He concealed his emotions behind a fib,
Feeling futile, deep inside.
That soul was fading, a slow death,
Now that he couldn't grasp on any further.
Something looked mislaid, life was bleak,
Still, no one knew what he had planned.
He pretended, as if he was impeccably fine,
Every minuscule went by as a blur.
Craving to know, Was it his lapse?
He loved her profoundly, but nobody knew.
Every Soul realised, but it was done,
They found him hemmed in his own Blood..

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Wow. This is absolutely, amazing and beautiful. This is just phenomenal. Beautiful yet sad, too. I love this. :) You have such a talent and greatness in you; you're also, a wonderful and talented writer and person. Because you do and you are. Never stop believing that and never forget that, because it's true. Thank you so much, for sharing this. :) Thank you.
