SEASONS FOR THE FORLORN

By SANIA

I see the spring come

I see the bloom

Pretty flowers everywhere

Like the kind I used to put in my hair

But it is nothing I care about, furthermore

I doubt there is anything I really care about anymore


I see the blossoming life

I see children's smiles

Laughing like there is no tomorrow

Living carefree, as if they've forgotten all sorrows

It is nothing I desire, wish or want

Because in the end, it's those memories that haunt.


I see the radiant glow of the places

I see the warmth in them

Like an inviting dwelling, a pleasant home

A place you go to when the wrong cards are shown

But if I'm to stay, how long is too long?

And even if I go in there, how will I belong?


I've seen the winter come

I've seen the spring go

I guess I'll live a few seasons more

Just to see how long till everyone goes

It's as if I've been sad for so freaking long

That I have to get used to being forlorn 

Because nobody stays once the time is up

Everybody chooses to just give up.

I AM WOMAN

By SANIA
 I AM WOMAN I am God's precision I am grace I am the fire burning in your face. I'm what you can't envision, I am every holy man's unholy decision. I am phenomenal I am worthy. I am the one thing, Your shaking hands can't hold sturdy. I am tact, I am something you thought Wouldn't remain eternally intact. I am the enchantress I am your merit's peak. I am the vehemence of your desire, And I see you still staring as we speak. I am bewitching  I am beguiling Every time you look my way, I see you dubiously smiling. I am woman. I come in many forms Some frail some warm, Others thickskinned; stirring up a storm. I am mighty,  I am exceptional, Even though I am not God's model-sized angel.

ENCHNATING DREAMS

By SANIA
 ENCHANTING DREAMS Do I look stupid? Running away from dreams that enchant me? Enchanted less, I feel haunted more now. I wish I could ignore them or at least, I wish I could fulfil them. But how do you continue without hope? How do you continue without direction? How do you achieve what seems impossible? These are dreams I see with open eyes, They don't let me sleep. These are the dreams I want to fight for... But these are also the dreams I'm fighting against. It's because these dreams have the power, The power to ruin what I'm working so hard for. But these dreams, they also are the power, The power I hold on to so I don't crumble, Crumble to pieces and fall down on the dusty ground. [-sincerely, a dreamer whose goals are defined by society.]

WHEN I DIE

By SANIA
 WHEN I DIE When I die, Don't look for me In beautiful sunsets across the sea; Or in the sky, feeling the air you breathe For all traces of the life of me Will be six feet under, Under the ground where No one can see the blemishes and blunders That we made together, When we merrily played together. When I'm gone.....  Please don't act all mighty and strong. Let the people know That I was cherished and loved Through all the whimpers and sobs. Let them know, That my absence meant something. Perhaps to just you, not them But let them know, That I really mattered. When I die, Don't try to feel me In the soft summer rain. You know I wrecked thunderstorms, With my feelings of desire and rage. And try not to stargaze  While looking for me For you'll get entranced By the bigger, brighter stars While I glow calmly somewhere else. When I'm gone...  Don't be shy to Freely point out my wrongs, Along with all the mistakes I made. For I never pretended to be The angel all...
