Will you be mine?

   It's not when you miss a person terribly or not when you want to spend all your time with them. It's not at all when you are ready to do anything for them and not when they're continuously on your mind. And the concept of not being able to live without a specific person, is a complete fail. It's not even when you think you are compromising when you do things for them and also not when doing things for them seems like trouble or a formality in order for them to not get hurt.

    She is a wild sea at storm now. With raging waves of emotions. She was once a smooth flowing river, calm and sorted. Not anymore. She is continuously being beaten down by the rocks at bay. All the waves are breaking down and rebuilding. She can't quite figure out one from another. She can't feel the catastrophe around her. Because she has gone numb. Numb from feeling too much of everything. She has heard promises; she has been shown dreams of forever after. She has melted in words and shared smiles to the ninth cloud. These silver linings have made her fall that much harder. Often; It's this delusion that we mistakenly call love; we pay no attention to the gist of the words that the lover says while we are too intoxicated in ecstasy by the way they're said. 

       But even in ecstasy, she rarely slipped with the words. And it's the words that she remembered the best. They meant too much to her and she dwelved too deep in them. Those four simple words from an year ago, "Will you be mine?" keep replaying in her head. Those impulsive sweet talks and spur of the moment promises came to mean more than they were meant to. And the sweeter the words of the past, the harsher they cut her in the present.

    The words; the words have left a hole in her heart. His face; everytime it appears; scrapes the edgy facets of the hole in her heart. Tears are shed and so is blood. She can't feel it though; numb as she is. So numb. She knows it's not love. Definitely not it. Not the words; nor the feelings or the substance of the promises.

Say Something, I am Giving Up On You!


   The seeds of doubt. The unbelieving looks that pass their faces. The speculations. And how their actions speak so much louder. How they look away. And how they make it a point to pierce her with their words or actions, making it look like it was just another random thing. Those loud cries of desperation and insecurity being defended as clues and hints of unsatisfaction. The pretence of killing a flying bird while she has been caged and rid of her wings earlier. Sometimes they say it, sometimes they show it. Most times they abandon her. And again she gets trampled on and forgotten despite all her efforts. It's hard to tell who is more desperate.

     She goes out of her way. She compromises. She lets god her own comforts. She has gone numb about her own choices. She abandons her sleep each night. She carries their baggage while dragging behind her own sorrows or dropping them altogether. All she expects is acceptance, care. A concerned look, deep down her almost unfathomable eyes. A genuine, giving hug; not of self infliction or formalities. The promise of belonging. After doing so much. That is all she asks for.

         What she gets instead is taunts, pokes, anger, avengeful words, unsatisfaction and most of all hurt. Still she keeps trying. Running. She never stops trying. The little mouse on the wheel. Struggling to make all ends meet. Pleasing everyone. Feeling guilty for working late. Wishing for seconds to tick by faster or slower as people please. Only to make them smile. Because that is what counts. And that was all that mattered to her. Until lately. She has put down her weapons now. She is tired of running. She is going to be blamed and hurt either way. So she's giving up. Letting go..
