#‎Day6_Forgiving‬

She fills the room with her glow
Her narrow smile
So precise
Just enough to have you wanting more
She keeps a posture
Even when it's just the two of us
She is composed
Calm and collected
I often feel we've just met
For when she stares at me
Is as though she is looking through me
Reaches for an embrace
As I creep closer to her
We lock in glance
Her bright eyes turn teary
Her dimply cheeks glistened by the stream
Flowing down from her already reddening eyes
I offer her comfort
Wipe her face and hush her to sleep
I stopStare at the empty ceiling as I recall her story
Her pain
Her strain that she tries to mask away by her wardrobe wits
Pain of her childhood ordeal
Of how she had to be a woman to her father
Of how her peers looked at her with disgust
Laying blame on her for not being a model
A role model to her younger siblings
But to all of this she chose to be meek
Always keeping a smile on her pretty face
Forgiving all of them
Even though she knew nothing about forgiveness
For to her what is a life where everyone blames her!
For being her!
Her past crawls back to her
Through the one person she revered
Placed on a platter for being humane
Her very first companion
Who mistreats her and abuses her femininityAgain
She forgives yet again and swears never
Never to fall prey to any man
So she swore to be alone
But not too long after the inhumane act
Her supervisor and friend made advances at her
She sticks to her newfound principle
But the moron won't take no from her
She's left dejected, tired of her life
For what is she worth!
Every man in her life sees her as an object
A means to an end
She forgives all of them
But cannot forgive herself
She opts for the worst
To give up
To let go
To end it all!
Only to fall off the stool too early
To her baby brother that was meant as a joke
To have her fall off on sitting!

So yet again her plans thwarted by a man
A youngman
Her baby brother
An innocent lad
She forgives herself
And allows herself to love again
To share her beauty with someone
That someone is forgiveness
Forgiveness that will always be by her
To keep her warm
To embrace her
To remind her of how beautiful she is
How much she means to both of them!
Forgive and live free

#‎Day7_Respect‬

You wake up to her cry Try to snooze away but she keeps trying Trying to have you hold her, talk to her, talk with her How you ask? She gives you the world and a lot more for you to add To your solitude since that is how small your circle has become But with her you are fulfilled She loves it when you touch her Swipe her dress to ogle at her lingerie For here the entire world comes to bring their folly They troop in masses to pin their notices Of how well or not life is treating them They feel free having their linen out here You hesitate! Cover her up hurriedly to answer a call A call of nature, she speaks to you, you speak through her Then you rest your anxiety and keep swiping, touching Tapping... But it is only a phone Your phone, her phone, his phone and every other phone Taking you to a world of information Laying all the good and bad to you in split seconds This is the information era Like the other eras past, we live for now But we are alone with oursel...

#‎Day17_Explore

My sweet sixteen is gone Don’t get me wrong She was here yesterday Plus she is under age So get your thoughts out the gutter And let us speak about what is right Done right Since it is the right thing to do That never gets old, Doing right! So tell me about how it feels To walk inside a gorge On empty feet. Walls all shiny from the alluvial marble Can’t touch yet, I can only marvel At how something this oldStill looks this bold And beautiful So I keep walking further in along the silty wet floor Warming my feet with every inch down this abyss Any flowers!? No, just marble! I need something to take to the core That soft spot warming this gorge No! it’s just air, only air warms this hole As the path grows narrower With every step I take lower! The marble walls start to melt As I slithered off the now slippery floor I need to catch a breathe So I dash back out and put on some skaters I have to get to the core! Plus the floor is going soft on me. Last time we...

#‎Day13_Learn‬

Well-manicured gardens with fountains flowing Into the Lillied ponds, home for the double-horned fishlings Wide pavements covered in brushed slate stone With trees meticulously arranged on either sides A walk through this sure felt heavenly and a ton more This went on and on for a hundred acres a lot more Into the horizon With a mansion built of hard timber To carry the massive pagoda A fortress An Emperor’s palace In a land far away into the sunset Scarlet and purple donned the interior With an occasional gemmed chandelier Dangling freely off the artsy ceiling Royalty Everything well placed, it was pleasing Maidservants bowing respectfully As the Emperor’s son leaves for a journey To a land where the sun rises He probably got fed up of the sunset! So he wanted something more As he walked through the campus corridors During an orientation tour A professor paused and sought to know What was it that impressed him most in this far away land! Well the shape of your ...
