#BEATPLASTICPOLLUTION

I was happy with my new dress,  Transparent, yet beautiful.  You reflected the sunlight And made me shine so bright.    Lest did I know,  That you would cause misery,  To the fragments that belong to me And in peace you wouldn't let them be.    My tiny...

Best Gift

A sweet child he was,  Bubbly and filled with energy.  He was different from his peers,  And hence was alone.    His mannerisms irked all,  His teachers, classmates,  And even his parents,  Whom he adored a lot.    He oft felt sad,  And tears trickled...

Black Rose

Black Rose

When the world celebrated the day,  With red roses, cakes and gifts,  They, oh my… were left to celebrate,  With red, not roses, but blood…    What was their fault?  None I would say.  They were just going,  From one camp to another.    The sudden hit and...

Thoughts, Just Thoughts

Plomp! I fell on the bed so green,  It felt so calm and serene.  The rays of the sun shone so bright,  That I could see phosphenes in daylight.    I know, numbered were my days,  As brighter became the sun's rays.  Why was it like this?  That I melt at the sun's...
