Poem: English – Distinguished Instinct https://distinguishedinstinct.ca Mind, Thoughts, Pen & Paper Thu, 25 Apr 2024 02:54:55 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.5.3 Peek A Boo https://distinguishedinstinct.ca/peek-a-boo/ Sun, 09 Aug 2020 04:39:17 +0000 https://distinguishedinstinct.ca/?p=202 I stare at my shadow
As it stands in complete stillness
Is it really me or someone else being reflected
A Ghost of my past
A figure from my other life
I wonder why is it still
Unwavering yet scared
Alone and lonely
Like a child who craves a hug
The feel of a caring touch
It stares back at me
Like it awaits a response
To say it’s ok
The pain is gone
The storm has passed
But has left a calm
As I see the shining stars
Darkness peeks through
But only to suggest peek a boo
This time I missed you!

Lost My Voice https://distinguishedinstinct.ca/lost-my-voice/ Sun, 09 Aug 2020 04:33:07 +0000 https://distinguishedinstinct.ca/?p=199 I once felt pain
Sharp and piercing
Through my heart and soul
I thought it was temporary
It will slowly go
Only to discover it was here to stay
Forever, I remember
No it was forever and a day
The Pain stayed with me
Until we became one
Now it’s gone
And I am totally numb
My heart is frozen like a block of ice
Unnerving and silent
Weighing heavy and still
Steady and lifeless
Breathing against my will
It pumps blood like a gadget
It keeps beating
But only due to habit
It is a tool
Immune to emotions
Sailing through life’s
Waverly motions
I drag along for there is no choice
I am quiet now, my feelings have lost their voice…

In Quest Of Love https://distinguishedinstinct.ca/in-quest-of-love/ Sun, 09 Aug 2020 04:29:52 +0000 https://distinguishedinstinct.ca/?p=192 The need to be held and hugged
The desire to be felt and touched
The wish to be heard and seen
The passion to become and be

The curiosity to discover the world around
The eagerness to unveil the universe that surrounds
The dream to uncover and reveal
The fantasy to love, to feel

The hope to fly in the limitless sky
The ambition to reach a new high
The absurdity to seize a moment
The lunacy to epitomize future like a poet

The esctacy to live while subsisting
The warmth to feel peace when conflicting
To live and let live and to be extant
The thirst to find love before I extinct!
