Not those we didn’t.

After the storm,
We realise the things we lost,
Not those we didn’t.

Before the storm,
We realise the things we’ll lose,
Not those we have.

Fragility can be vulnerability,
Fragility can be hope.
A hope to break in the storm
And to be a part of it indefinitely.

A monochromatic soul, in a world of grey,
Tries to dance, to shuffle, in their own way.
Conversations swirl, but they cannot see,
The colours beyond, the world’s mystery.

A yearning deep, to be lost, to transform,
To break free from the norm, to weather the storm.

It may seem simple, my darling, to you,
But it’s a journey to a world anew.
Gaze into my eyes, and you’ll understand,
I’d dissolve in your love, like grains of sand.

Tempest  https://theteenagertoday.com/tempest/ Tue, 22 Mar 2022 09:22:16 +0000 https://theteenagertoday.com/?p=21640 In the sea
As the thunder cracks and fast gales blow
The waves howl as high as a tower
The sky turns black as a ghost

In the sea
As the thunder cracks and fast gales blow
The waves howl as high as a tower
The sky turns black as a ghost
A thunderstorm so dreadful that 
Sailors and crewmen beg for mercy.

The terrific thunderstorm warns no one, spares no one
But rattles every single living soul around.
Even though ages have passed since
The dreadful tale of that thunderstorm passes on.

On the port
As the palm leaves sway gently
A girl sits with pristine calm 
With a slight smile on her lips and gleam in her eyes
With folded hands on her lap.
She contemplates the mysteries and complexities of life 
Intense melancholic thoughts howl inside her, haunt her
Her mind turns stark black, a mess of interlinked memories.

Nobody knows the turmoil within her as she makes life-altering decisions.
Nobody knows the inner Tempest within her.

The raging storm https://theteenagertoday.com/the-raging-storm/ Fri, 16 Mar 2018 10:39:59 +0000 http://theteenagertoday.com/?p=10120 A storm rages inside,
Rains of regret and clouds of anger...
The breeze of joy has died;
With each storm, my brooding is longer.

A storm rages inside,
Rains of regret and clouds of anger…
The breeze of joy has died;
With each storm, my brooding is longer.

I cannot perceive why I suffer,
But the rains fall ever heavier,
The stormy seas get even rougher,
And the devil becomes merrier and merrier.
