SOMBRE

It is unexplainable. It feels like pain, it feels like sadness, it feels like anger but I want to cry and I want to be held or maybe I don't want either of those things. I want something though...

I knew this day would come. I've talked to myself countless times about it, envisioned it and then finally its here and I hate it here.

I love her or do I love the idea of her? I don't think it matters anymore. Love or no love the pain or whatever this feeling is, remains.

I wonder if she loves him. I feel as though she does. I don't think she'd go that far if she didn't. But why does it matter to me? I mean it ended and she left so why do I still care?

I wonder if I am the one making her not take the next step? I want her to be happy, Hell I want the best for her and she clearly knows what's best for her so why can't I be happy for her? Why am I heartbroken because of it?

The physical me is smiling, seems okay and happy but I am dying inside or rather I am running helter skelter (feels like a composition) inside my head wondering who will make me stop and tell me there's life tomorrow. Tell me it's just another bitter pill to swallow and you'll be fine. But I think I am telling myself this but I still can't hear it and I don't understand what it means .

She seems happy. She seems content. Her life is normal. She wants him. She moved on from me. Thought I'd hold her hand till the end of time but I think that's not meant to be. So why did I get to enjoy that? Why did I enjoy the sun then live in the memory of it as I shiver in this cold dark place?

I hate this but I have felt it. I have lived it so maybe when I meet another I'll be able to understand their pain or rather relate in a miniscule way about what it is they are going through.

Anyways, I'll leave it here. I have a mask to wear. I have smiles to share and laughs to offer. Life must move on I think. It doesn't have the time to wait for me to continue wallowing in this feeling... So I move ....

Adios.

LOVE ME WRONG!

A quote read, “It’s hard to wait for something you know might not happen but it’s even harder to give up when you know it’s everything you want.” The quote felt timely. I read it at a time when I struggled with letting go. I don’t want to, though. She was mine, but she wasn’t. She might never be, but I want her to be. Why? Umm... because she is everything! What does that mean? I also can’t tell but I know that she is everything I currently think life is. It’s happiness, sadness, peace, anger, a thin line between crazy and tranquility and I crave to have that forever. You make me want to make mistakes You turn temptation into my best friend You make me just give up and cave Will I ever fall in love like this again? She gaslights me into thinking that crazy is normal. She pushes my boundaries, and I want to try everything at least once. The whole time, I am certain that the ideas are extreme, but I am exhilarated, and I love the thrill it brings. I have tried fallin...

ROBBED

Dear Reader, The year is 2003; My mum is an introvert and she was a new mum to this ball of energy and as discipline for not obeying her (nilikataa kuwasha jiko) she made me sit with my dad. Now my dad was a silent man, (was since we rant a lot when we meet), and I “feared” the man. I don’t have a valid reason why, but silent people give me the creeps. So, as I sat with this man of little to no words, he tuned in to Nation TV and this new segment started playing. “Smallville”, a little kid falls from the sky in a pod and a few months of binging this show and the kid is now an adult who flies and can shoot lasers from his eyes. Clark quickly became my favorite character and there was this babe, Lana! The year is 2004 and I was turning 5 that year. Now, I could already tell what was attractive and what wasn’t and Lana was the most beautiful on-screen lady I had known. She was dating Clark and there was this bald man called Lex and then she started dating that guy and I was flipp...

SEB'S

Dearly Beloved, It's been six years since I said I'd watch this piece, La La Land. I've been afraid, though, afraid that it might become my life. A line reads that whoever is afraid of suffering is already suffering from what they fear, and clearly, I have become it. Seb says that he is letting life hit him till it gets tired then he will hit back and that line made me laugh as life has been hitting me lately. A line reads that don't kick a man whose on the ground but life didn't get the memo since I've been receiving my daily share of kicks everyday. You know, life not being as I had envisioned it as a child. Be married at 25 and have cars and houses and horses and kids... and now I can barely follow through a movie as I need rest. Mia and Seb are what I had and what I craved for so I understood their story. How both of them sought after their dreams and worked towards them but then life chose different trajectories for them and life seemed good but they were...
