Sand

And there comes a day where it falls apart. Everything that was built over the years turns to sand slipping through your fingers. 
What was love once, has turned to indifference. When you needed them, they didn't come. They are occupied with their life. 
And you start to forget the special things, the years, the moments. 
You slowly let go of memories, and photos don't take you back anymore. 
You start to forget the colour of their eyes and how they took their tea. 
And the once golden sand is wet and cold.

Walls

 It's been a quiet two days. I've been writing to you but you haven't responded. You're lost in your world, and the walls are high. I'm not going to scour those walls, hoping that you might let me in. No. I'll wait here, on this side. Quiet and patient, because I know that when you eventually miss me, you'll come. 

Damaged

 We are born perfect and pristine.

Over time, we wear and tear.

Damaged hearts and minds.

Souls blackened over time.

But we somehow survive,

And still stand...

Hoping that we will be accepted ...

As damaged as we are.

Skies

 I don't post selfies. 

I post skies.

Because you'd notice my skies. 

They are majestically beautiful.

Spinning

 He spun me around,

with his hand on my waist.

And time stood still. 

My world was turning and I didn't feel it. 

I was looking into his iridescent brown eyes. 

Lost in a world, that was ours alone.

Moon

 It's the full moon tonight isn't it? It's pulling and pushing against our heart strings. Heavy, hurting, bruised and battered. I'm amazed at how the moon affects us.

Mine

These words that I pen are not about you.
