FADED COLORS

It was very deep before I went on hibernation.

The thought of it fading was nowhere near my thought.

Now, my thought is like that of a mirage.

I was the brightest of colors.

I wish I had a name to describe my color.


My love for you grew daily,

and without fail, I journeyed around the earth to see whether there is a replacement,

my curiosity was satisfied when I found out you were the last of a kind on this earth.

Our love was in its prime,

the noise from our love drew people to our sight.


Our heartbeat was the first song we heard when we first met,

it was one of our greatest memories we ever had.

The world should stand still for us,

our presence tells an unending story,

your voice is an echo of healing,

spreading its wings across the world.


How soon would I have introduced you to my parents,

your color was irresistible and the and the eyes that say it

became jealous and proud.


I hope I'm still dreaming,

The thoughts of you made me wonder 

how the other side of the earth will be like.


I woke up from my hibernation

only to see you fading,

did I keep that long in hibernation?


The remedy of the current state is my blood and my presence.

I tried mixing our all-time remedy- our blood,

to prevent you from fading,

yet it was no avail.

 It wasn’t my fault and I had no option. Yes, I have many female friends who I had crushes on and also had some liking me. It’s exactly 5 years since we started dating. Maybe, I have become fond of her so it is very normal to me.  My ex-girlfriend developed the habit of ignoring my messages and calls with reasons being ‘I’m busy’, ‘Oops, sorry I missed your call, I stepped out a little’ or ultimately, ‘I do not have call credit or data bundle to return the call or the message’. At a point, I became used to the excuses. Something in me started dying gradually but she did not notice because she was far away and I had drowned in her thoughts so I wasn’t among her top priorities. I felt sad and complained bitterly but to no avail, also I was described as the ‘nagging boyfriend’.  At one point, I had a thought to forget her and move on but it was hard for me since she was my first girlfriend. I am an introvert so I barely made new friends, my neighbors could not tell whether I...

WHEN THE STREET LIGHTS WENT OFF.

Nostalgia was our greatest wishes, our dreams and love were tied up in the color of our blood, no one doubted our love. Doubting our love meant, blood is white as the doubters of our love would say, on the road of memories, our wishes were true, hugs and pecks from each other kept us going. We sat on the bench and watched as time smiled as it passed us by slowly, the winds blew mightily but become calm when it got near to us, birds drew closer to see us, wondering whether we were the reason why 'love birds' was coined. Under the street light with a bench having the capacity to carry four people, we occupied two and our hearts occupied the other two. The street lights made us happy, we saw every gesture each other made, your smile was priceless, I would have gathered the riches in the sea to buy them. Where we sat was like an island with only trees and us as inhabitants, all thoughts passed through my mind, since it felt like we were the only inhabitants living on this island. T...
