Blinds
How come?
I get blinded
By the tears
Brought by
Your smiles
At my downright
Stupidness
In adoring
Your boring self.

Empty (Part 1)
Empty (Part 1)
I knew it was coming,
but the only question was when.
Little by little, piece by piece,
I reluctantly defaced the soothing wallpaper
that I had so painstakingly pasted
on the wall.
Inch by inch,
I slowly bore my nails
into the fragile paper
and started tearing
it apart.
I cringed
and reveled at the same time
hearing the sound of ripping paper -
as if my hands
were moving on their own volition
while something deep inside
is telling me to stop.
Until the day
when I finally tore the last piece of it
only it did reveal the plain,
grey paint behind.
Patches of color
splattered along the now barren wall,
but that's just what they are,
splatters.
Little blotches of faded colors
which only reminded me that a wallpaper
is not
what I needed
but something more adherent,
solid.
It reminded me that
not a day ever
was I able to find someone
to paint the wall with.
