Grief /Poem

Image credit: https//www. image search.com

This is how I have dealt

With grief most of my life

sharing it on paper

instead of humans

It feels safe that way,

words don't feign sympathy

and paper doesn't stutter

It makes the grief feel projected

As if happening to another person,

Not me, never me, never now

As if I am a mere character

in a distant story

As if the grief will end

after the full stop, after the end

As if fiction will drown reality

And reality seem fictitious

But of late, of late

the fiction seems to be a maze

A maze I have spent too long in

A period longer than forever

And now, it is too late

to get out of and for

human touch.

Possibilities

Image: Pinterest there could've been a world where you and i wouldn't have met. or met but not fallen in love. or fallen in love but not let go. or let go but never remembered. or remembered but never missed. and it breaks me apart to wonder. which is the life we'd live. which is the life we'd leave.

Un-Knowing

I do not want to know, If they are dead, alive or dying. I do not want to know, Which race, religion, class or caste they're from. I want to shut my ears and make no sound, Bow my head and walk around. Because if I know, I will shatter, Shrink, dissolve, wither into nothingness. If I know, I cannot function, If I know, I'd want to un-know. -bryam If you have anything to share, comment below or write at bariambredeemson700@gmail.com #Visit full profile by clicking the home button to know tittle more about the author.

Inpui Naga |Poem|

THE CAVEMAN (I) Image credit: Isaac Nka A legend's caveman singed Inpui's W'all; Echo of Ramting Kabin the alpha. We laud thee hovah; for thy ward he'd Kovah!! Thou ought endured that Inpui Ho-Ho-Ho-, they left nothing yet Thy tribe thy Inpuirwan at thy worth to called. Well save!! Your glorious realm in days of yore; Have baset onto second and tomorrow. Seven ol seven thousand of beloved brothers, Hath excuse of mother nest and fly off; Lyke birds in daily breaths are your blood, Hath marry in Low and High by hilltop. wherein many tribes scattered of Big House; Tried to build such told free air? Or call it winter, which, being full of care, Makes summer's welcome thrice more wish's, more rare. 'Lo! all those trophies of "Kapo Inkhaan." Out, very out, at the end of a cavern, So spring, Khumba beneath the blue sky, passed! Folk out, Bariam lyke a babe roam In the pacific bed; Late...
