A Glimpse Into The Life Of A Kleptomaniac

Body itching, teeth gritting, I got to have it, Can’t stop staring, Trying to wave off the urge, It goes and comes back almost immediately, This time, it hits harder.   Tampon in hand, Pain gone, The aura of fulfillment all around, I feel so at ease.   Now reflecting, Never needed the tampon ‘Cos […]

Untold Reality

Beneath that beautiful smile, Underneath that uniqueness, Beyond that which is real, So many untold stories, Pain, anguish, fear, hatred, regret, The realities of the dreadful past, That decides lifes’ tide turn, Becoming illusions in the memory, Suppressed but never forgotten, Locked away in that safe box, Keys existing in that which is unknown, The […]

Fight Brothers Fight!!!

  My fellow brothers of the ink We inspire and we thoughtfully think Our writings are inspirations to others Let’s not become victims of “bother” We write to inspire let Not our ink expire   Don’t give in to depression. Because it’s a cancer that slowly kills It gives way to anger With negative thoughts […]
