Speaking Your Mind

Is it intimidating?

my unfiltered words

going against the tide

you said you wanted it

but your face

tells a different story.

Double Standards

Be erotic but

Not too erotic,

to make him worry.

Be upfront but

Not too upfront,

it ruins the mood.

Be blunt but

Not too blunt,

doesn't make you feminine.

Hoping For Forgiveness

Burnt all my bridges

resentment filled my heart

Years and years of connection

Gone in a blink of an eye

I still think of you

without a negative thought

Wishing you well

On life's journey

Is It Fate?

Out of thousands of faces

twice I found you

in the midst of my despair

felt a tug of the red string

realising I couldn't let you go

sad poetry
