She’s just a beautiful, calculated bomb
with a timer on her body,
patiently waiting,
for the precise time.
Human is too cool, the earth is too beautiful,
and sometimes,
I still don’t want them both, in my life.
It is easy to make you hate God’s gift,
just scroll through your Insta feed
and tell yourself,
how unfair this life is.
Don’t fly too high, so you won’t become another Icarus.
And don’t fall too low, so you won’t break yourself apart,
lose everything, including your status.
What does it feel like being an understudy all your life?
I’m still staring at the broken house of a heart.
I’m still staring at the shattered future of a soul.
And I am fully sober, when I say, it was all caused by me.
All notes were written in quarantine, 2020.
