15 Things I learned in my life | Birthday Special

i)

Cinder brushed on aurora melting on my eyelids,

Collar bone covered with fat.

Bleeding wounds that will never heal

But ribcages have protected my nasty sins, scars,

Even if you swallow sorrow or repent and repent

Don’t punish your body,

Pretty things fade with time, you’re beauty is immortal, like evergreen trees in a rainforest.

Love yourself

ii)

August is the most romantic month when heatwaves hit your face with water droplets now from your eyes but clouds which pour love which is immortal

Summer vacations when I wake up late, microwave food,

Spending time with a friend

Hanging out on the terrace all day long,

I learned poems can’t always rhyme,

It’s so gross to play with slime

Love lasts for a lifetime

iii)

Things change

Nothing lasts forever and

The old music was better

Friendship does have an expiry date

But before that, you should live every second

Now,

We are just friends who wish each other and

how are you? And I am fine type

Tears have dried. I loved you. But for you, I was an option, not a priority. I even wrote my own Eulogy cause’ you wanted me dead

Because everything fades with time, when you sink into your pillow your screams will be heard only by you. You win battles no one knows anything about.

You’re brave and you can do it.

iv)

A smile saves everything

So even if your hollow inside learn to wear that smile like a weapon and

Wear your smile

Even if you’re broken inside

Smile is a piece of jewelry you are compelled to wear

Cradle your feelings, Cease your feelings.

V)

Don’t crush on people

Please don’t crush on people, get obsessed with them, even though they won’t like you back. But follow the rule. Learning rule. Learn at least one thing from your crushes and follow it in your life.

Vi)

Silence can’t be heard,

The world is deaf. But the right time is now,

If we delay

We won’t be able to breathe

We won’t be able to live the same

COVID was a demo of what’s to come

All the earth will burn to flames

Vii)

Petrichor and solitude are the best gifts

Viii)

I have captured my hope in candles. That I blow when I weep, the fragrance of dreams is lasting longer, longer, and longer. Eventually, hope is the strong smell that gives you a headache but it’s good. It’s good. It’s good.

Ix)

Lying supine on the cool sand. I wonder what the future holds. I think. Think. Think. But

If you what to get your dreams. Wake up. Do it. No one is going to do it for you

X)

When I was young I used to wonder what would happen if I put my hand into the electricity socket. My mum told me but I didn’t listen to her. So really on some people like your backbone, don’t question them

Xi)

Write about what you feel. Relatability over honestly. It is hard to it always. But sometimes authenticity is better. Raw emotions need to be expressed.

Xii)

Just found the word Pluviophile

A lover of rain. Rain is my friend. But it comes once every year to this desert to witness my dry heart.

xiii)

Fire or ice will kill us

But did Frost mention about thoughts?

Our thoughts change our habits

Also changes the world

So don’t let your mindset defile of define the world you shape

xiv)

You will never be happy with your past writings or anything, but those are steps you can’t jump. So once you fall down Samina, get up, put on your bandages, and run again.

xv)

SPREAD LOVE. When you can’t smile then make someone else smile.
