Situationship

 Are you scared to start all over?

Love again, and show your flaws? 

Do you stick around because you have to? or  

Because they are your comfort zone? 

Every time they say they love you, 

Do you say it back just to make it stop?

End an argument or not pick a fight?

After a while, love fades in a relationship 

But what about when the relationship fades? 

Into resentment, frustration, and irk. 

Yet you stay because you are too scared 

To walk away and start over; 

Knowing you have to 

Say the things you never mean, 

Flattery, ego boost, validations they need; 

Knowing that some time later it will again be the same, 

Alone we are till the very end.

What's In A Name?

 I know not what to call you now 

We aren't strangers 

But we were never friends. 

I have known you over the years 

But it looks like you have changed. 

Your face brings up a lot of memories 

But your name fades in the same. 

Shall I call you what you liked? 

Or perhaps what I wanted to? 

Do you remember the name you gave me? 

Or the one I annoyed you with?

I have tried in vain to reach you, 

You hide somewhere amused, 

Like one of our silly games; 

In some nook or corner of the world 

Where I can't reach, but my words can. 

With this hope in my heart 

I have penned down my thoughts; 

But what if you don't know it's me? 

What if you forgot my name? 

So tonight I write again, 

Letting my thoughts be known 

To the universe that makes us 

But under your pseudonym.
