"I don't even feel anything anymore, I'm just immersed in the stillness of my own thoughts."
— Echoes of the Infinite, Restless Prayer
What a dilemma..

Her Life
Her laughter echoed the pain of her cries, The ice melted, she burned and tried. Happy face with empty eyes, Her smile depicted the pain confined. Her words reflected her past mistakes, She vowed to change her dying life. Bleeding by the cuts of their knife, She refused to be called futile. She decorated her old grave, With the ribbons of the broken ties. Rising from the ground once again, Her silence roared the goddess's might.

There were two reasons I was scared to let people in; the damage they could do, and the damage they could find.

Sculpted
I sculpted it With the desire To reshape something I could never fix To create something I could never become To make it distinct from me To let it live my every dream
But it wasn't the only one coming to life With it I was reliving I was being crafted in the process of crafting I was creating it to recreate me To give it life to live mine To feel complete
Displaying it one day, The audience seemed to be smitten with its beauty But it refused to believe them It refused to believe me It refused to love itself It refused to be Caressing it, I reduced it into pieces Only to realise, The molds I had used were once used on me, I had created nothing but me.

Sometimes I don't care about what people think, Because I've already thought about it on their behalf.

With a glint in her eyes, hungry to be heard and loved, looked around herself, she was all alone, all by herself.
She had no major problems in her life nor did she want all eyes on her. It was a search for a pair of eyes, deep as an ocean, for she could drown in them and vanish.
With stories unwritten, she remained responsible, priorities remained unhinged. But it was there in her mind somewhere, to weave a beautiful story once, from her memories and not from her imagination.
Who I Am
I let the screams sink in, They were mere words after all. I already knew their emotions, I stood still like a doll. I lay my head low, My mind all blank. An infinite questions sowed, Answers were all hanged. The mirror on the guilt's wall, I tried to cover it with my hands. I wondered who I was, While they asked me who I am.

My Universe
During the explanation of the words written, Some slept, some listened. Some laughed, some dwelled in the imaginary. Being unaware of the worldly affairs, I was stuck in the interplanetary. As I blended in my thoughts, The colours of consciousness stood out. Even after I diluted myself in the tears on ink, I was caught by the paper, a culprit of thinking. The words written, the words spoken, Faded away as I tried to fathom them, The language felt alien to me, Maybe, it lacked the meaning I tried to find in myself. Hanging between the two worlds, I wanted to untangle the string that suffocated me, But what’s the point now? As I already found my own universe in between.

Forgotten Death
Wandering in the endless desert, I searched for a stable land. But who knew I searched for more time, Just a little, to live and die once again. Enclosed behind the bars of glass, My attempt to avoid the pathway towards the end. I let those pages free, but the memories, Tried to recollect the pages falling into shreds. Living like I have centuries tomorrow, I held the needle, with a little thread, Who knew, my eternal life ran, In the hourglass of my forgotten death.
