SIMPING I & II

SIMPING I

Simping from afar,
with stolen glances and not-so-discreet smiles.

Simping nearby,
with flirty talks and poorly hidden fluster.

Simping in reels,
with funny memes.

Simping in voice notes,
with carefree melodies.

The Simper gone too far,
and the Simpee—oblivious as hell.

SIMPING II

The Simper finally decides to act,
The Simpee’s mixed signals driving their overthinking into overdrive.

The Simper confesses gracefully,
Trying to have some semblance of dignity left.

The Simpee rejects the Simper,
Albeit very gently.

Friendship strengthens surprisingly,
The Simper finally moves on.

But the What Ifs linger in the shadows,
What if the Simpee had also been a Simper?

Instances of death do not make me cry, others’ pain does not make me flinch. I revel in hurting the monster and his accomplices with the most cruel word...

BLOOD RED NIAGARA

Blood Red Niagara The water falls greater than Niagara But it is not pristine It is blood red Filled with debris of pain and shame Thick with the tears and screams Never to be heard Pristine before, the blood red was deliberate Inflicted with an old rusty blade Alone, deep in a forest of barren trees Vultures circling her for her blood Taunting her to make it bleed again and again Until the screams die and the tears dry Yet it is blood red The water falls greater than Niagara Yet it will never be pristine. Tainted red for eternity.

VATICINATION

VATICINATION The study block haunts me The backlogs taunt me Yet I stay still as nothing enters my brain I am sure I will fail The exams near Yet I feel no fear As if my subconscious has accepted my ultimate academic demise A pathetic failure, my mind mocks A prophecy it vaticinates The prophecy of my exam results I look at the material in vain Everything goes above my head I realize with a sigh That I will be a self fulfilling prophecy.
