I am a young writer who is always willing to pen down my feelings and breathe life into my words. My poetry mostly speaks of Motivation, Lifestyle, hope, and love. Sometimes, heartbreak too.
NEGATIVITY IS A THORN
Negativity is a thorn
Deep rooted within the flesh of our being
Pressed upon by the heafty hands of competence
And injects the venom of envy
Like a volcano of darkness
Oozing, taking us bit by bit
Until we succumb and are on our knees
The darkness we choose to lay our head on the chambers of it’s hands
And let it hold us in the clutches of it’s palm.
Instead to be in the clutches of sophisticated frames
With our turbans, caps and head ties looked upon in awe.
FRAGILE WARRIOR
Dear fragile warrior
You are the frozen fire
That Burns and hoots
And then calm and cools
Let your actions drip
Down the sword of your grace
Litter the battlefield with your gleams
And let a few go tell your tale.
POET’S LOVER
Her words scent of lavender
The type grown in the Sahara
And I was ready
to
shield it, nurture it
Watch it grow
bloom.
let it’s scent echo
Pass the Sahara, mountains and
ocean blue.
I will move the wind towards it
Blow it as I watch it
take over
But all these are cooking wishes
Hidden in the pot, beneath the
cover
And I let my feelings hover
As all I am is a poet
lover.
