This poetry collection explores the theme of "Living & Non Living" and delves into the relationship among humans, objects and the forces of nature. 🙍♀️ 📝🌱
If I leave something behind, a handkerchief, with lace butterflies, the v neck line, of my favorite dress, A letter sealed with whiskey stained lips, you pick it up - you will find the traces, the tears, the whims, and the dreams, of a girl who once “was.”
When you gaze at the things I left behind, slowly, but surely, you will unlock the hushed melodies, of pills, rattling, in a bottle beside my bedside lamp.
If you ever come across something I left behind, return it to the earth, marry it off to the soil, for the world is on a wax-winged race, and they do not have the time to ponder, on those who once “were.”
The lace handkerchief, marked with tears, torn pages, of false promises, the old linen dress, scarlet on white, all those things I left behind, with tales to tell for a thousand nights, to ice-boxed ears, and iron clad hearts.
Now, let them lay to their rest, for I know the strain of telling such tales, to a silence drowned in sounds.
