Hold On

-
Holding on to things could be easy until they start hurting you, then you let go.




They said i always had a shine in my eyes, little did they know it was from the tears i held back.

Seeing the scars on my fingers, they thought i loved cooking but no one knew that holding on to life also leaves scars.

They assumed i had a soft voice, but assumptions are not always right, holding back a sob also makes your voice comes out soft.

Glowing nights

-
  (With reference to “She Walks in Beauty” by Lord Byron) In the shadows of the dark night, In the light of the stars from the cloudless skies, Among the contrasts of black and bright, Standing out in the dark were her glowing eyes Reflecting from the stars, their beautiful light, Even heaven, the beauty of which, denies. The beauty with time doesn't become less, The passing of time only increases the glowing grace in the flowing, from the wind, of every inky tress. The glowing stars lightning up the face, That showcased the emotions that were in express, as if thinking of your heavenly place. Lying under the soft brown brow, were eyes, shining,  calm and eloquent and in the darkness, lays out such a glow, Looking at which, years can be spent, Leaving behind all the worries below The look in the gleaming eyes is all innocent.

The Circle

-
I've been running in circles, taking all the rights only to turn up at the wrong place. Only for this circle to be full of everything I want to run from.  Running so fast away from it, fearing falling back into it. The more I run, the more it tugs me back, pulling me in. The rope digs into my ankle skin and cuts through it like acid. But despite having the scissors in my hand I cannot cut it. Even if it cuts my skin, pulling me in, I can't do it. Even if it ruins me, holding me back, I can't do it. I don't know why I am doing this to myself, but I can't bring myself to cut it. It's hurting, paining, and burning, but it makes me run back to it. I don't know why I am doing this to myself, but I can't stop myself. Maybe I'm a moth drawn to fire, but I am still there, letting it burn me.

The Starry Night

    Moderately abstract landscape, an oil on canvas, painting, painted by Vincent van Gogh just months before his tragic suicide, The Starry Night is perhaps one of his greatest masterpieces.  In the work, van Gogh portrays the view from the east-facing window of his asylum room at Saint-Rémy-de-Provence , just before sunrise, with the addition of a nameless, or probably an imaginary, European village amidst a dark wilderness, complete with dampened lights.   The painting is dominated by a night sky roiling with chromatic blue swirls, a glowing yellow crescent moon, and stars rendered as radiating orbs, and among the yellow glowing circles, one could miss the presence of Venus, probably signifying how close it was to the earth, centuries ago.   One or two cypress trees, often described as flame-like, tower over the foreground to the left, their dark branches curling and swaying to the movement of the sky that they partly obscure. Amid all this ani...
