"missing" was a person

You can miss someone 
But only like a guest 
And never let "missing" be the only feeling to consume you all alone
But not sometimes, but often, missing stays in you like your only friend and you forget it was meant to be a guest
So when missing enters in your body,
It looks for noone but your heart 
And there it goes to sleep
To end it's long exhaustion 
Because it is tired
Because it is like a lost nomad who finally found a home
Read it again, I said home, and not a mere house
It's a huge feeling of happiness when a nomad finds a home
And so only a nomad, a lost nomad, can feel how "missing" felt that day when it also found a home in you.
It fell asleep in your heart
It was a warm place for it
It took a last breath there
And never woke up again
It died a painful, yet a peaceful death
It got buried in your heart
Whether you knew it or not.
Since that date, it's there within you and someone's memory never left you.
I know, you still think of them sometimes a little fondly because it was a nice friend, and sometimes a little angrily because it was supposed to be a guest but never left your home.
I know you miss them too
And this memory of " missing " will stay for long 
Until one day another friend in face of a guest arrives.

    I loved how you described this anonymous feeling of “missing” someone and how it will stay with you until a new 'guest' arrives.
    Beautiful!!

You can have the whole world and still yearn for one person

You can have the whole world And still yearn for one person You can have all the love to give And still hate someone passionately  You can have a party at this moment  And still feel like you're holding a funeral You can be surrounded by a huge crowd of people  And still miss someone desperately  You can listen to songs you love And still nothing might ever hit the right strings of your heart that once someone's voice did You can have all the happiness in this world And still nothing might take away your sorrows You can hear the deafening music in a ballroom watching everyone dance And still you hear nothing more loudly than your own heart beating  You can have your script all prepared  And still you feel at loss of words when you meet him You can say say say say and keep saying And still feel only misunderstood  You can do do do and do everything for them  And still hear them calling you selfish  You can sob sob sob every tear And still feel heavy  You can write write write An

i wanted to be someone's poem

Image
I think i have written enough for everyone i loved, i embraced pain bravely and so somedays i was so proud of that, i even overenjoyed my racing heart and the butterflies in my belly.  I wrote, i scrapped, i burnt every word in love, grief, and agony. Poets can create poetry, poets can deface them too. But there's no big poet than this heart, because it doesn't forget, it doesn't erode, it only creates poetry sometimes in love, sometimes in missing, sometimes in rage but all it does is to remember everyone more than my head. I want to be someone's poetry No, no  dont dedicate me one from books and letters of old lovers of 80's and 90's  Write me one Know about my skin, know about me, my name, my smile and the curves of my body, know how my eyes lit up in dark, know me when i overthink, know me when i ride my bike, know me when i play my playlist, know me when i lay bare in bed, know me when my eyes cry, know me when my pens can't write, know me when i only h

sharing this because i learnt it hard way

1) Detachment is the only way to live a more       emotionally fulfilled life away from all the anxiety  2) What is yours, will always make its way to you whether it's a person or an opportunity  3) Accept people for who they are, their nature and everything. Don't try to change someone. And same goes for you, don't change yourself for anyone. If any of your habits retards your personal growth, or the growth of your close relationships, it's good to look at them and try to build healthy habits. 4) There are 7 billion people in this world,  so when someone rejects you or proves that s/he can't reciprocate those efforts and feelings you have, it's a blessing. Firstly respect that the person didn't use your feelings against you and secondly you are now open to wider possibilities.  You can now move on and meet new people. 5) Don't fall in love with someone's potential to be a great partner to you. Because it is all in your head because in reality how th
