I know you love me

( What do you do when you know someone loves you but you still struggle to feel their love? Is it just a mere play of different love languages?)


I know you love me

But do you still like me?

You only speak to say I’m loved,

But nothing more

I know you love me

I sit with gifts you shower me with,

But rarely with you

I know you love me

You kiss me so passionately,

Then you let me go

I know you love me 

Because you keep repeating it over and over again 

But do you even like me?

Or are you bound by commitment you made ages ago?

Still strong,

But the excitement gone 

I’ve got nothing new to offer 

I spend my nights alone 

Forgotten and confused 

You're always too tired for me

Or maybe, tired of me

I let my tears run until my eyes feel dry

So that I can still smile when I see you

I spend my days with you

Waiting for the moment you’ll look at me

Your eyes focused on mine

While mine avoid looking at yours

After completing tasks you like more

You’ll say you love me 

I know you do

But do you still like me too?

Clumsy

( Don’t hand me something precious, for I might break it) I’m the clumsy person who breaks everything  The bowl that I had just bought The flower vase which never got to hold a plant  Or the mirror I had hung up on the wall I’ve tried being less clumsy,  Being hyper aware of my surroundings But I somehow hit my elbow on the door frame Or my head in the tap in the washroom  Or stub my toe in the bed  So I just normalised it slowly  Hastily cleaned up everything and moved on Said that I was just clumsy  Until I became so unaware That I broke the person I loved the most And couldn’t join back their pieces  I wept and tried to hold on But I never learnt how to fix anything I was not clumsy  I was a destroyer  And there was only one way to stop me So I broke myself  Now strangely tripping over doesn’t    hurt as much  Nor does losing my favourite cup It feels like a routine,  Like a curse from everything I’ve destroye...

Till death do us apart

( How do you move on when the person you've loved for years transcends to heaven?) " I'll be there on your good days and your bad days " Our wedding vow I knew how to rejoice in your happiness and comfort you when you cried  After all, I chose to interweave my identity with yours, for life But who am I now? A part of me is lifeless Searching for the soul it hugged for so long I'd follow you to your dreams  I'd lead the way to help you face your fears But you're in the only place I can't tag along  So I place my love for you in pictures  In my pocket, on my walls, on my shirt And in my heart, forever  " Till death do us apart " You see, even the vow falls weak infront of my undying love I am and will always be yours Even DEATH can't do us APART.
