come back when it's not september

maybe someday 

when things have cooled down 

when our youth and mischief 

don't spell out by letters 

the roads of your city, now ours 

stand still on a winter morning

your coat on my shoulders and it's a weekend 

a coffee in your hand for me 

and the other in my pocket 

i can almost hear the laughter we share

and every pinch of sadness fades by 

your hair sneaking out of your cap 

and a warm muffler around your neck 

a homely smile on your face 

a kiss on my lips 

and no goodbyes to exchange anymore 

can you walk down this road with me when i can't stomach coffee anymore? 



i wait for you 

in case the seasons change your mind 

my life hasn't stopped on its tracks 

but i do wait 

in the worlds we made together in our minds

as children who didn't know any better 

so come back 

come back when it's not july 

come back when it's not september anymore

come back when the spring sun is out 

come back when you can spread out a mat for me at the nursery

We believe, that somewhere, in between this chaos, there does exist something real , something which just not an idea of it, but it's worth for what it  really is.   With these thoughts, I penned down this poem not too long ago: . I will break open myself  And offer up my trust  Knowing it is the only gift worth giving, That the hardest part of living  Is watching...

All Too Well - song review

On the occasion of World Music Day on 21st June, I decided to write about one my favourite lyrical pieces of all time - All Too Well by Taylor Swift, from the album RED released in October,2012. We all have, at least once, been a prey of unrequited love, a feeling of outpouring emotions and helplessness, as I describe it; the memories that refuse to fade away and the heartbreak that never heals completely... When I came across this song for the first time, I almost instantly fell in love with it - how brutally yet honestly it brought out each and every sorrow of a broken heart in love in form of song verses, how the music was so intense yet monotonous, just like how passionate yet cruel such a love is. This song is about a seemingly 'perfect' love, where you dance around the kitchen in the refrigerator light , a 'masterpiece' where you taught each other your pasts, thinking you had a future together. Even in all coldness and adversaries, holding their hand, walking...
