You show me the beautiful beneath the smile I so eloquently hide behind
That my scars outline a masterpiece I am in the midst of continuously painting
The one you admire and tell me is already complete
My collectively tattered pieces, those treasured traits you unearthed getting to know the depths of my very soul
The riches you hold closest to the warmth your own heart
My tears that stream and have pooled by the soles of my feet
A muddy puddle of murky swirls as I stumble
But you tell me often this is where the lotus grows so beautiful
Where her strength is summoned
And her courage borne
Don't struggle against the serpent's grip of the muddy waters
Delight with the ripples you make learning to swim
Growing from just a bud to an exquisite flower
Love your beautiful
And the hearts you so magnificently fill

Fairytales and ferris wheels
Spin to the carefree sound of a hushed zephyr
Cartwheeling in the softly sunshine
Dizzily daydreaming of desirous love and pink cotton candy
Mindless thoughts and sleeping memories
Caught in the silent slipstream of a past tomorrow
Hitching a ride upon misty eyed clouds
Traipsing the endless universe
Of time's unfinished tapestry

Softly beneath her head a carpet of cerise petals gently rest
Fallen from rose enchanted gardens
Blooming behind her saddened eyes
Where dreams are spun
And hearts lay broken
A million scarlet tears cried from a trillion tattered stars
As countless pages of poetry are etched
Upon darkened souls that haunt the blackened sky
Forever lost as they tumble over the horizon
Beckoning her beautiful words
When night is all but forgotten in that moment as dawn quietly blinks her eyes

@writerstolli #tod_wtHold my hands in both of yours
And kiss where my fingers curl
Against the soft curves within your gentle grasp
Read the unspoken words that saunter between our gazes
Feel the taunt chain that connects our souls
Though it's not the weight of being shackled
That pulls us together
But the intensity of being finally found
To one another
And the promise shared in the taste
Of a single kiss
That bounds our hearts as one
As does the sun and the moon
Echo and yet fondly beat as one
With the anticipation of every beautiful tomorrow
Following the exquisite rapture of a blessed today

Maybe ours was a love meant for just a season
Whilst the leaves turned yellow shading sadly to tearful brown
And the slight breeze became a chilly wind
A wretched Autumn that sung so sweetly
The kind of love that danced with moonbeams behind the softness of hazel eyes
Kissing you gently in the glow of a glorious dawn
That breaks serenity across a morning sky
Tinged by the beauty of sangria with splatterings of orchid
Our love a vagrant whirlwind pulling us from the grips of quickened sand
Where the drudgery of the mundane would surely drown us
Showing us how beautiful each heartbeat can be delightfully euphoric
And as those throes of love held our hearts firm against one another
We willingly without remorse let each other go
Watching the masterpiece we painted melt to the depths of dismal grey

I deserve a love of epic and gargantuan proportion
The one that is waiting in the wings for the perfect enthralling entrance
To fill my mind, my lungs and bones to the brim of overflowing
To caress my every fibre with gracious platitudes and unbridled passion
To kiss my worries and the uncertainties that trouble my inner sanctum where peace quietly resides
Heal my wounds with the sweetest nectar of empathy
Hold my every whim captive till each is successfully and satisfactorily fulfilled
Be the echo of each other's laughter found within our own hearts
The sound of rightful and truthful happiness
To pray beside me on bended knees when I struggle with life's saddened frustration and misfottune
Help stitch the frayed edges that tend to show when both stress and bitter heartache test my strength
Learn with honour how tragic and fiercely beautiful life can become with each bestowed heartbeat
Bring starlight and joy to my eyes that have seen by far too much the colour grey
Applaud the courage of my every step forward when the road is somewhat challenged and difficult
Walk at my side hip to hip to hip, hand in hand
Our shadows cavorting as one, experiencing every magnificent miracle we are blessed by
This is the dream that wakes me in the wee hours shy of dawn
The love I've promised myself that will one day find me
The love I deserve
The love destined to be unapologetically mine

She drew dreams with variegated stubs of charcoal
And painted stories at length with pretty pastels
Words flowing fluently from seductive strokes of sable
Hues of pink champagne and fragrant turquoise blues
Soft lavender skies and periwinkle streams
A barefoot gypsy, flailing auburn tresses
Tied with a strand of lemongrass
Swaying hips and enticing buttercup lips
Clarinet in one hand, sketchbook in the other
Stars with jewels and flower crowns of tangerine marigolds
Beautiful conversations her seemly inspiration
Precious moments to dance atop naked canvas
Tunes whispering gently upon the points of stained fingertips
Breathtaking art residng deep in the valleys of her soul
A journey undertaken with untethered wanderlust in her heart
An untamed spirit lusting for freedom
She will not be denied significant restitution

"CAPTION"
She stood solitary in her own familiar darkness
Shrouded by raven's wings
Enveloped in the calmness of genteel grace
This quiet a restful solitude
Let the night be her one salvation
Lifting her forsaken wings to salute the voluminous moon
Wrapping her in his soft euphorbic ambience
Each elongated feather scintillating
Whilst silvery moonbeams dance along lithe quills
Cradling each insecurity with candescent warmth
Her yearning heart an ageless metronome
Breathing beneath a tireless body
Bandaged in a kaleidoscope of emotions and intentions
An endless echo of misting enchantment
Wisping amongst mindless shadows
Shamelessly striking the chords of a timeless universe

THE MAGIC seeped inside my veins,
Sending THE CRIMSON KISSES to cheer me up

Trust
Trust is the bestest
Proof of love, passion
And care..
Nothing can harm or
Bend a relationship if
There is the element of
Trust..

MEN WOMEN
As per convention
this society lays,
I chose MEN and hit Play.
I see men in suits
tailored out of hypocrisy
and pretence,
making women feel
uncomfortable for her
naked truths.
I see men choking
their inhibitions every day,
in dark and dawn.
I see women trying
to press the snooze button
every day, in dark and dawn.
I hear men laughing and
women sighing,
I hit the SNOOZE button
and returned to the home screen.

MEN WOMEN
Not to repeat the same
mistake again,
I chose WOMEN and hit play.
At a restaurant,
I saw the waiter directly
passing the bill to the 'Man',
as it is always expected of
him to pay because
he is a 'man'.
I saw a girl getting
upset for being called
chubby while she
constantly teases her
'skinny' best friend.
I never knew body shaming
is gender specific.
I hear men sighing and
women laughing,
I hit the SNOOZE button
and returned to the home screen.

With no option left,

all in the hope of seeing
a third option 'Human'
somewhere inside
'Men' and 'Women'.

As twilight vanished beyond the horizon
Night crept in stealthily
Dark, ominous, horrific, an evil raven
Exploded my fragile ribcage
Encasing a heart beating frantically
I bleated shrieks, a petrified lamb
As the monstrous shadows drew closer
To engulf me completely
In the abyss of ensueing darkness
Faintly I thought, am I a loser?
Shadows of pristine dreams, shattered
I felt the encroachment of chilling fear
Fathomless contritions and
Paradoxical remorse
My eyes glittered, was it a tear?
They, horrific beasts with fiery eyes
Closed in on me from all sides
Like sirens singing songs of my ruin
Smog shrouds mind, suffocates me
I ask, is this the end of my life?
As I strive to break away from demons within
The air reverberates the echo of my screams
Just then the salubrious morning unveils
Ushering in the silvery ray of hope
I yearn to put together my shattered dreams

Can't believe Man has turned worst than any monster any devil in this World. Fk how could these bastards... Kills reading this gruesome horrific act.
What Government needs to do is give the criminals a worst horrified life by chopping off their body parts and leaving them to survive. Sad :(
The accused — Zahid and Aslam — have confessed to killing the girl after her father failed to return Rs 10,000 he had borrowed from them.

Shrouded beneath lies

Lone wanderer
The paths keep waiting for me
I, the lone wanderer, walking aimlessly
My thoughts floating like clouds
Mind following legs unwillingly, under that shroud.
I keep on shifting the burden of my cares
Moving briskly in the jocund air
Roaming on the tracks, empty like me
I am a vagabond, can’t you see?
Looking out for destination constantly
To unlock the happiness, to search for its key .
My days losing track of time
My mind drifts, weaving some rhymes
My ink turned white
Making my words futile
But I still walk down the breezy miles
To discern the daffodils, that beguile
I keep up my pace in surge of spring
With the hope and calm that it will bring
