The New, Distant You….

A red, metal heart,

A rare smile,

Mean words,

Those proud eyes.

He ruins my day,

He screams for lies,

Alone he should live,

They added to my mind.

There I was standing,

From a distance, he permits,

Their words, still hard to believe,

So, I paused, before I rhymed.

The tug of war, in my mind,

On one end their words,

On the other, my inner voice,

Reigned as they stole, my sleep every night.

That day, facing the day light,

I quietly observed, sharpening my sight,

As I stepped close, the heart was bright,

What happened next, I couldn’t believe my eyes.

Yes, that heart was of silver metal,

Covered with blood, so precious,

Not coated, but pierced,

With sharp swords, of love and fear.

As I observed close, I see it’s severe,

They need to be pulled out, one by one,

And stitched carefully, with nothing but love,

I didn’t know how to react, when you proved what I found.

I wish I could tell you, I sneaked in and out,

Not just a day, but for months,

Am I overthinking, am I wrong?

I’ll never know, cause I fear,

Losing the new, distant you, I’ve figured out.

When The Lights Went Out...

Surrounded by four brick walls, I could not look out, they were too tall, Watching the steam escaping the spout, I looked out the windows so small. On this chilly and gloomy night, I was amazed by the stars so bright, I realized there's always some light, It's just a matter of catching our sight. At the time, everybody just frowned, My heart was filled with stormy clouds, Seated on the chilly ground, I enjoyed, the chirping sounds. Even though I had to shout, Trying hard to chase away the stormy clouds, With a prayer requesting for a favor, To the lessons taught by nature, My head I bowed, On the gloomy night, When the lights went out. -Debra R.

A Letter from a Fan's Friend....

Dear Sushant Singh Rajput, If you are watching your fandom, From wherever you are, I can picture you smiling with tears in your eyes, But please let me interrupt you for a while. Dear Sushant, First of all, I would make it clear, I'm sorry, but I hope you understand, I'm definitely not and was not your fan, But I would raise my pen on behalf of my friends. Dear Sushant, I do not know the cause of your deadly plan, But I do understand, the pressure and your pain, I apologize on behalf, of all the ears gone deaf, When you needed them, now we are all too late. Dear Sushant, If you are watching, people mourn for your fate, Only you know what's true and what's fake, Sir what darkness you saw that day, But maybe you see the light today. Dear Sushant, This morning I read about you, on the internet, I felt something familiar, cause I am the same, NASA was our dream, only you were fortunate, Maybe our dreams alone, won

Together Let's Plead...

There used to be days, He stared at the waves, With a smile on his face, Though his heart was scraped. For understanding he craved, Hiding in a dark cave, His sorrows were caged, By the judgments raised. He had no right, to shed a tear, In the light, he lived in fear, To survive, he did not need a beer, Yes he lives, on Earth, right here. The world would say, he's care free, I see him walking, bare feet, This sunny day, on the tar street, They helped him out, the shady trees. This sorrow my friend, would fade away, Our life on Earth, is a short stay, I know you're hurt, in many ways, To the selfish world, we all are preys. Feelings have turned from gold to steel, Idle creeps in to this life, to steal, Each day that ends, is a falling leaf, It's hard, to wake up, from this bad dream, To the one above, together let's plead. -Debra R.
