chill

i miss when home used to be a place and not a feeling.
i could once find it on a map-
now i have to search for it after every tear and before every smile.

here’s to hoping i can find comfort in between the highs and lows.

water

how many more sips will it take
before i figure out
that the way my throat burns and my vision blurs
is bad for me.

sure i tell myself i use it to cope but
maybe i just want someone to feel sad for me?

winter interlude

i’m still too busy
counting my days
and letting each hour
slip slowly away
&
i tend to forget
what i’m supposed to say
til i snap to reality
when i hear your name

frosted nose

you watch as the snow piles on everything it touches
through a veiled window you can hardly see through.
a cold blanket now covers the earth,
what a beauty it is- untouched by people.

the second

caught in the bind of time
we find ourselves wishing
the hour hand could slow down-
help us stop reminiscing.
seeing for ourselves
is better than admitting
that for each minute we waste
another seems to go missing.

o

over and over we find odd ways of
overcoming all of the problems
we once thought could only be solved with
our last breathe or our last
goodbye.

another song! we r bless'd ;-;

seriously, though, listening to the songs while reading your poem takes the experience from heavenly to godly, i-- they're so sad but beautiful at the same time, and makes me want to give you a hug while also somehow experiencing those same melancholy feels. you do a really good job of capturing those vibes and putting them into words

that for each minute we waste
another seems to go missing.


hecc dis gib me big feels, +10/10 amazing imagery, doin me a big enjoy <3333

white lies and campfires

watch the sun go down with me,
can you see it?
the same horizon looks different covered in darkness,
but we know that there’s beauty underneath it.

bloom

pick apart the petals and leave the thorns-
these roses that we carry won’t last very long.
they’ll bloom for a season, and then they’re gone,
so shower them with love before they move on.

Hey veeren!

I really enjoyed reading through your thread. I really like the poem "Fire". I think my favorite line from that one was "the only path i have is forward but / i only think of rewinding". I like the descriptions of light and warmth especially the tunnel line. I also love "Faded Sunlight"! It takes a really mundane and relatable moment and just describes it so simply and yey effectively. Really good job on that one. "Winter Interlude" is so good too. I love the last stanza especially.

Good luck with the rest of NaPo! I'll look forward to your new poems
