The Decor

What must be the life
of a piece of décor?

Sitting in one place
watching people go on
with their lives.

How lonely must it be
No one stopping by
to admire it’s beauty.
Or is it even aware
of the beauty it possesses.?

Guess we’ll never know.
‘Cause for all we care
it is just a piece of décor.

I miss you

Where did it all go?
The bright smile every time you saw me.
The way you came home from work
with arms wide open.
The cute nicknames you called me.
Where is it all?

 

All I know is that
it has all vanished
as though it never existed.
But I know it did.
I saw that picture of us smiling.
I saw that video of you calling to me sweetly.
I know I didn’t imagine it.

 

Then what happened to you,
to us?
It all feels so distant now.
YOU feel so distant.
Why did you move so far away
while living under the same roof?
Or rather when?
For all I can remember,
One day you were smiling and joking with me
And next thing I know
You were miles away.
Is it something that I did,
Or was I just not enough?

 

You can barely look me in the eyes now.
And I can’t even recall
the last time we hugged.
What changed?
Was it you or was it me?

 

Just help me understand please!
I just want the old you back.
I just… I’m desperate.
To feel your love again.
To be your little girl again.
So please dad, come back.
Your ‘beta’ misses you.

There’s a glimmer of light
In this dark world of mine.
Sparked by something casual
Or that’s what I think it is.

It's a new kind of light.
One I’ve never seen before.
Glowing brighter than the stars.
Burning hotter than the sun.

It looks scary.
Because what if
It ends up burning me?
No matter how bright,
It is after all a spark.

But curiosity outweighs the fear.
So I lean into the warmth.
Just enough to feel the heat.
Letting myself enjoy.
‘Cause for all I know,
It'll all be over in a blink.
