Day1: SINS OF THE PAST

She stole
She cheated
She lied
She cried
She gave up
On all
On us
As a whole

But I won't do same
I'll overlook her sins
For that is in the past
Her sins of the past
And I forgave
Still trying to forget
Still she'll never know
Because she gave up on life
Now who'll sin for her
The day after tomorrow?

Day2: THAT COLD NIGHT
Drip drip drip
The water dripped
He sat by my side
And I tended to his furs
My first best friend
To live without would be hard

Drip drip drip
Outside, it drizzled
Normally we'll be playing
Getting wet was our thing
Now I'm back to doing it alone
When the night gets cold

I'm glad I finally let you go
To love you, she'll do that so
Even though you were never my pet
Our cold nights together would always be the best


Day 3: FOREVER'S PROMISE
You promised me forever
But gave me the never


Day 4: THOUGHTS OF YOU
I want to quarrel with you
I want to fight with you
I want to disagree with you
I want to stress you
I want you to take a break
I want you to learn new things
I want you to sail the seas
I want you to stay calm
I want us to have quiet talks
I want us to maintain our happiness
These are my thoughts of you
That's Because I love you
You is me

Day 5: KALEIDOSCOPE
Today's theme is kaleidoscope
And I consulted my oxford
I've heard the word a few times
But don't really know the meaning
They say it's having a lot of sides
And my mind slits down only to you
Yesterday you were happy and sad
Today you're anxious and still
I now know what the word means
But I might never know why you change
Every single day

Day 6: MISPLACED FEELINGS

Once love
Then it turned to hate
Now I'm back to love
My feelings are never in place
I could say it's misplaced
Because even he says
He can't place a name
On what we share

Day 7: PHILOSOPHERS STONE
You were born mere
And I made you more
Just like the philosophers Stone
I made you into gold

But then i stole your glory
No one noticed you were lonely
As long as I was neraby

I was the one that made you
That's why you could never compare
Just like the gold
Could never compare 
to the philosopher's Stone

I caused great havoc 
because they still wanted me
And seemed to never get enough
I was like the philosopher's Stone

I was the chance at perfection
That you couldn't offer 
with your slouching posture
That you never overcame
And the big rim glasses
That never left your sunken eyes
So I had to hide away
I let the world miss out on my offer
Because I loved you my daughter
But just like the philosopher's Stone once more
I was never actually forgotten

Day 8: MOOD

I was in the mood to live life
Until daddy lost his job 
Eddie was married too soon
Mommy wasn't there to do a thing

I'm in the mood to sleep
Better still, lay on my bed and weep
Daddy gets on my nerves too much
Especially when he hits eddie

I'm really not in the mood right now
Let me wallow in my sorrows and cry
Eddie finally went to see our mum
All I want to do now is to join them soon

Day 9: AUTHOR'S CHOICE (THE LOVE OF A MOTHER)

The greatest and deadliest of all times
A love so strong, would push you to sin
You can't resist as long as it insists
Could be pure and also dangerous
Could be safe and also your darkness

It consumes like fire
For the love of a mother
Is the most dangerous ever

Day 10: ODE TO LIFE

Life, it still confuses me
Why are we alive?
Life was given to me
Should that make me lucky

We should be thankful to the gift of life
But sometimes I feel life should be thankful to us
Life lives off our fears and sadness
Our Joys and happiness
Our sorrows and Thanksgiving

We feel that we feed from life
But maybe life feeds from us
Maybe we make life live
Maybe we give life to life


Just maybe, we are the reason life exists

My addiction

In clusters or alone we stay Eyes Locked on our idea of the way We don't blink, we don't move Only stare Needing not to miss a heartbeat It began as an interest But now it holds great importance A part of our very existence A companion, a besfriend A necessity, a need We've made it to be I see it everywhere It has gradually taken over I agree that it helps But also it destroys And we don't seem to see Because we've chosen to be blind It really is an addiction A call for rehabilitation O generation of today Even if it's only for a day Please put down thy phones Okay , so who guessed this poem was about phone while reading it. I know you didn't. Phones could be very addictive, I'm a living testimony. For some months, my phone was bad and that was when I realised that I actually had a real life addiction. It was bad. I felt alone, like my best friend had died, everyday if I met with a friend that had a phone, I'll borrow it ...

Depression in a nutshell

The moment of peace, you say you needed a rest so you're taking it now. You don't want to think about anything but somehow you catch your self thinking. Little yous in your head are having a conversation and you're forced to take the seat, at the head of the table. 'let's listen to them, it shouldn't take a minute'. They introduce the doubts, ask you if you're happy. You think and realise you aren't happy. They remind you of everything you couldn't get, they remind you of the losses. I wish you never listened to them, I wish you had an argument with them. You'll sink in for a while then dismiss the meeting. It continues. Today's meeting is different, you're not at the head of the table. The l ittle yous in your head which you've come to realise are your demons have taken their seat and the wheel. You don't want to listen but somehow you're caged to the spot. They go over everything, tell you you're a lose...
