ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : are you?

Are you happy?

I hope that all the distance 

is what your soul craves. 

That it is what is right in your very being. 

That you smile from the freedom of it. 

(chorus)

I am leaving. 

Soon, so that I can feel a semblance of dignity. 

It was not as it should be. 

I had no true friend, nothing worth staying. 

But I am still happy for you…

Writing Practice 2: Hidden places

I have hidden places 

but perhaps you have them more

are they cool and dry 

and safe?

Do you cry and pace?

Feel at ease or ever ashamed?

Do you talk to yourself and make sure

you are okay?

I have hidden places 

few have ever been invited in

but I wonder if you barely know

that yours exists within?

strong vs weak

we were standing there 

three in a worldwide family 

and you’d have to agree

how much this should be unlikely 

she cried and was angry 

and he answered her barely 

until he chased her out 

perceiving her a threat 

or atleast pretended for her to be 

and i stood there, mouth agape

that was all required of me
