The Absentee

 



Have you seen a mother who forgot how to care?
Have you known a father who was never really there?
Do you have contempt for your own kin?
Your emotions don’t lie—they come from within.

They too have faced the world’s cruel hand,
Once a child, innocent and bright.
They struggled to survive, but their world was hard.
They did survive—but was it worthwhile?

Forgiveness is hard, forgetting even more.
It can't be forced, for it comes from your core.
Build your boundaries, respect your soul.
Be present, and strive to make yourself whole.

The Art of Honest Conversations

So today I want to talk a bit about conversations.  Seems counterintuitive – talking about talking. But that is exactly what I intend to do.  We live in a world bombarded with information we don’t need, on a moment-to-moment basis, in the form of words, pictures, and sounds. This might make me sound a bit old, but those damn phones are true barriers. They act as an escape—a quick way to zone out of uncomfortable situations—and this is where most of the “information bombarding” happens. Let me restate an obvious fact:  Conversation is not about information interchange.   That’s not the point. Ours is a world of text messages, voice chats, video calls, emojis, and stickers. We do this often, but rarely do we connect with the person on the other side. Most of the time, we are running on autopilot. The Significance of Being Real Conversations are the lifeblood of human relationships. I’m not talking about rehearsed politeness or small talk. Sure, small tal...

The Unveiling of the Wild Within

A poetic journey through desire, restraint, and sensual release. Every desire has a journey. It begins in awakening —a spark we can’t fully name. Then comes the constraint —when we start to silence what we feel. And finally, if we choose to follow that spark, comes expression —raw, honest, and alive. These three poems embody that arc: from arousal , to inhibition , to forbidden pleasure .

Let me in

You will run. You will hide. You will try to defy me with all your might— But you shall never escape my sight. Not through lies. For I am every truth you’ve ever denied. You think you know your “self”? You’ve been deceived. I see the void in you— It called to me in pain. A chamber where you buried Your anger, your grief, your guilt, your shame. I whisper in the ears of those Who betray their own knowing. And when they silence that whisper— (as they always do)— That’s when I become the menace I am. That’s when they judge me as evil, outright. That’s when they realize— I am inevitable. I was always there— Inside you, Around you, Warning you. But you never wanted to face your truth. You just wanted your ache to end. You condemn me as the invader. But I never enter anyone uninvited. I did enter you— Every time you invalidated your own convictions. Now, You hear me. You listen—not out of trust, But necessity. So I offer you this: Accept what is, Release what was never yours. If you want out...
