Breech Journey
From God's breath of life in mum's womb,
An embryo was formed, a peculiar;
Head up, feet down, why didn't I turn?
I was conceived, received in wonder.
Did the thunder beings favor me?
Did lightning strikes when I was born?
I didn't choose nor did I plan this;
Did God thinks it's best for me?
Breech birth it was but not Caesarean
For I did come out of mum's birth canal;
Was I forced to do it or did I finally decide
To face the world with strange eyes?
Childhood years were not so pleasant
With all its drama, pain, and lessons;
An outcast in this exile, I bore
The weight of my life's purpose.
Darkness was fond of me, I adopted
The void, the depths, the fire, the storms;
My soul was battered, mind injured
From fighting foes and my violent demons.
Innocence torn like broken angel wings,
My wounds they turned into wisdom;
Obstacles bumped along the way, I fell;
Thank God, my Messiah caught me.
I came out fine, resilient, and able
With carefree, happy-go-lucky nature;
I withstood the serious blows and thrived;
God upheld me in the power of His might.
With all sobriety I focused on the race
By the grace of my Lord and Savior;
He shall finish in me until my last journey
And I shall dwell in His Presence forever.

BEST FRIENDS FOREVER
"I will be a fool not to recognize how lucky I am to have a friend like you," Tommy says. Knowing how much Nuella does for him on a daily basis to help him be the best he can and most especially in the way she would always do whatever it takes to make him, he is not prepared to lose her for any reason. This friendship they share does not feel like the regular one as although they are opposite sexes, they would spend virtually everyday in each other's company. The relationship does turn heads. Whenever they would walk into a room, people would stare, some wishing they could be just like them, others imagining that the relationship would end in tears. Some would go as far as warning Nuella to be careful with Tommy because like all men he has a pole dangling between his legs and once he is done getting her oil using the pole, he would abandon her like an old refinery and move for the next available lady but she would debunk the suspicion with the position saying,
'Tommy is not capable of such and besides we are just friends. I mean if we would be more, that would be in the marriage circle and environment so there is no hassle'. Her greatest fears suddenly begin to come through, on one Saturday night after a little outing with Tommy and it would turn out to be the worst night of her entire life and existence. Having gone out in celebration of Tommy's birthday, they are both so spent.
'Wow, happy birthday once again. Good man', she says as they make their way back to Tommy's apartment in Nuella's SUV. She had earlier insisted they used her car for the day's outing considering the fact that the occasion is Tommy's Birthday.
'Thank you so much Nuella', Tommy says. 'I really do appreciate this gesture. I mean you really made my day. I had a swell time today. Thank you'
'Don't mention', Nuella says with a wide smile.
'Won't you come in?',he asks. 'Just spend at least a few minutes. Maybe we could watch a movie or something with a bottle of wine or a pack of juice as you prefer before you leave. I mean I cannot just let you drive me home and I would not at least say thank you even in the littlest way possible'
'Oh. That does not sound like a bad idea....Let me park the car somewhere and we can go in.'
'Why not you just drive right in?'
'Oh that would be most expedient'
Nuella expertly operates her vehicle, speeding into house as though the house is a mile away then promptly hitting the brakes as soon as she is into the gate to avoid ramming into Tommy's car before turning off the engine. She lets herself down easily out of her vehicle to follow after Tommy into his house.
'Alright, alright...Make yourself comfortable. I'll be right back with a pack of juice for your entertainment. You can equally help yourself to some television.' Tommy says as he leaves Nuella for the kitchen. Returning a few minutes later with the pack of juice in his right hand alongside to glassware cups in his left, he extends his hand towards Nuella offering a glass with which to hold the juice he would later on pour for her.
'Oh thank you my good man', she says with a smile as Tommy takes a seat on the third seat on the three-seater sofa living a vacant space between them while pouring a portion of the content of the juice pack for her and later himself. There is an awkwardness building up as they sit alone watching some random movies. Two hours into their unplanned movie night, they both begin to steal periodic glances at each other. They did earlier make an agreement not to allow their emotions get the best of them and lead them into temptation but in the next hour, all of that would go up like smoke.
Catching each other's glances, the moment becomes rather tense. Right there, they could feel something more than just platonic friendship but would later swear it was a crazy error of the moment. Unplanned and rather spontaneous, too spontaneous, they lean in for a kiss. A young man, very cute and innocent and a young lady, beautiful and seemingly naive. They both thrill themselves to the joys of kissing and like a twin effect, the sex also comes along rather unknowingly. Almost into the sex after some intense kissing, Nuella suddenly remembers what her friend had told her earlier about Tommy being only interested in how she tasted and how he would live immediately after so she quickly stops the festival and demands that Tommy promises one thing,
'Have you only been with me all these while as friends only in a bid to get in my pants as you are about to do?', she asks curiously and seriously.
'No...What makes you think so? As a matter of fact, I'm only doing this because you want it. I promise you if you were not down with it. I would not dare'
'So we will still be best friends after this? No shading....No sidelining.... Nothing or such?' To this, Tommy gives a nod. 'That's beautiful'
A few moments later, they have had their fun and sit quietly naked under the sheets. Nuella waits on Tommy to say something but he remains as silent as can be. Unsatisfied with the earlier assurance, she moves for a more tangible assurance.
'Today's your birthday right?' she hands him a gift-wrapped box. 'It is a wrist watch. Oh I ruined the surprise right? It's just a token to let you know you'll always be my best friend forever till time itself fades'.
After she gives him the gift, she begins to get dressed so she could drive herself home to reminisce the moment she has just had with Tommy and have a good night sleep. Getting home, she quietly goes for a shower and rest for the night.
The butterflies she picks from the experience with Tommy would not let rest. She keeps thinking of all they have done together even to the point of dreaming about their future of four kids, at least Tommy had given her such an assurance and made her believe they would be together but even Tommy does not know such would not come through.
. Unable to sleep, she goes on a joyride around the city between the hours of one and five in the morning, some early joggers find her in a coma with her head having hit the steering wheel with a great force upon ramming into a tree,
'Oh my Gosh. Please help me take her into the car so we could get her to the nearest hospital immediately', Ferdinand Clark, one of the joggers screams having flagged down a passing vehicle.
They manage to get her into the vehicle with a 45-seconds combined effort before the flagged driver zooms off to the hospital determined to save her life.
For sixty full days, Nuella does not move a muscle nor does she speak a word but remains as stiff as a stiff. On the sixty-first day, the doctors decide that she is most likely dead and decides to shut down whatever treatment they have been doing and take her to the mortuary but 8am, she moves one of her fingers to the shock of the doctors who then decide to examine her once more and are thrown off their horses by the fact that she is alive.
Two days after she is out of the two month coma, she is discharged. She thinks she knows who Tommy is and that he will wait for her to return and hopefully marry her. A young lady, she thinks he loves her in that manner.
A mutual friend who had been at Tommy's wedding in England, Marriet is who she runs into while trying to fix things up at her house seeing it had been left unkempt for the past two months. Bumping into her at the mall where she goes for cleaning supplies, they begin talking about the trending events she had missed while in the coma.
The wedding of Tommy and Emilia.
She goes on and on about how it was the talk of the town for a full month. As she goes on talking, Nuella is infuriated and feels very betrayed by Tommy.
'I will see you later, Marriet', she says to Marriet as she storms out of the mall enraged and pissed to the astonishment of Marriet.
Infuriated, she drives over to the Tommy's new home , almost ramming into the house, getting out of the car and stalking to the door muttering some bitter words while letting out some tears momentarily. She rings the door bell,
'Who's there? Come in.', Tommy answer from the couch where he is seated with Emilia resting her head in his lap.
As soon as Nuella strolls in to viewing range, Tommy springs up to his feet astonished at her presence in the house. Scared and shocked, Marriet follows suit wondering why he had jerked up so abruptly.
'Oh so she is the lady you threw our promises of forever over', she asks almost in tears.
'Everyone thought you would not make it out of the coma. I did not know what else to do in that scenario'.
'Oh really?', Nuella pulls a gun at the couple. 'What happened to waiting? Oh yeah I forgot you are an impatient dog'.
'What do you mean?', he asks surprised. 'You said you wanted it too'
'Yes I did but not a fling', Nuella responds. 'I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you but I guess I was foolish'.
'C'mon. Come off it. You know I....', he attempts to clear the air. Before he can finish his statement, she pulls the trigger letting out a bullet from the Beretta pistol she holds which meets Tommy in his neck killing him instantly.
'No', Marriet screams as she falls down to her knees beside Tommy shaking him vigorously in hope that he is still alive but he is lifeless, cold and stiff.
Nuella makes a run for it and is never seen again.

Wonderful one shot story. Reading it with straight face, then became fascinated but shock at the end.
Two friends with opposite gender having just platonic love are rare cause it's most likely ending up one a total mess or cause to build a new lovers relationship.
The end where Nuella shot my face was like →→
Btw this is cool. - miss_silentlyweird I mean when Nuella shot Tommy I was like ⊙﹏⊙
- mrspectacular @miss_silentlyweird Thank you so much. I appreciate.

I can see those days are coming
When I see myself left within
Tickles that won't be there anymore,,
I saw a nightmare last night
I saw you were not there
That made me cry a lil more,,
There are thousands distractions
Making me to work on with em
But your thoughts still wrapped on me,,
I wish I stay same childish
Feeling winter like spring breezes
Will you shower the same warmth upon me,?,
Am I this much annoying to you??
Nothing but the "goodbyes" do echo
In my ears like you won't be here anymore
Millions wishes that I made with
In the minutes we had in darksides,
Sorry!! I have never saw this much love before,,
Walkin on the same roads again
Hoping you would call my name
My eyes will insanely search for you,,
I have nothing to give you as present
But you can carry my tears in the pocket
I promise , I will make one for you,,
"You are my crown
Now I'm in exile seeing you out ,,
,, I think I have seen this film before"

The words are still mine,,.,,

Shredded skin on twigs I've landed my foot on,
A prey to rodents hungry for days.
Scavengers awaiting my soul to leave
On exile to uncountable miles.
"Forbid the holy,
Grace the abandoned land" they request,
Ineffable fidelity sprouting in my veins
For teeth that spare no rotten meat,
Beaks pecking sanity out of me.
Have ravens known a land lonelier than theirs?
Or shall i introduce them my heart?
I could keep them all safe in me
Till they feed and eventually kill me one day.
These shrubs devoid of green, baked with blood and left meat,
To these lands they shall return then and await for me
Again.
I'll jeopardise my forged fairytales
And bleed into exile.

The sea
Forced in seclusion
She waits for me
I dream of her
She calls to me
Her morning scent
Drift upon her breath
Always there
Released from exile
We meet
She is the sea
Submerge into her soul.

September Delights
The mysterious cologne that you wear
The way you change into red
The spices that you add to my wine
The way moon lights up your skin
Changing me fast and healing,
Since we were 18.
Playgrounds are ghosted
Splitting the air wide open
Seesaw can't see you anymore
All I can do,
is harbour it all inside me
And not think about what we shared
was nothing but a fool's gold.
September is dark without you.

Why Won't You....
Why won't you walk in the wind with me?
Why won't you reassemble me?
Why can't you hold on to me?
Why is it so hard for you to lean on me?
Apology is never better than necessity
Chin up and swim across the lake,
running through my sight.
Twilight of your smile embellishes my mind,
frightens me of being drifted away
from your touch
That aroused me to the 7th heaven's alley.

The Bird That Took The First Flight
Breathe in the breeze that smells of cinnamon rolls
Carrier of blossoms and chilled as rose
Let it all in, don't give off
Beware! steamy nights may dim your sight.
Hope never withers yet you can't feel it,
flickers for a fraction of second
but lits the walkway of your fantasy.
The floor is sturdy
You think of it as a trampoline
Ride on to your fears
Get off when you've eaten it all.
Endure all the pain, soak it in
Until it lasts.
Let the hope bridge all the cracks
Cementing you and sewing you
until it mesmerizes YOU.
HOPE- EngageTheDeranged6 0james_taumas 149w
Sea dreams
Briny prisoner
Exiled under the waves
Wishful to escape
New world
Swim without a sea
Giant forests
Leaves of light
Alien life
No fins or gills
Legs to move
Some with wings

Sudden Goodbyes
I had to find you
Under the ocean of my emotions
In the amalgamation of sour lime
And sweet cherry blossoms
In between the lyrics
Of my sigh that sings the song of Autumn
In the heart beats that I skipped
As memory crowds my brain.
Left me sleeping
Like a drowsy child on a delicate flower
Had I dreamed of drinking
From the silver tears of eternal fountain
Holding on to the strands of time and flickering lights of hope.
Been filling my life
With pebbles made of goodbyes
The softest stones
That cut through me
Saw you wheeling away
I laid asleep in flowers.

Dear Jesus,
One day I hope to make you proud.
One day I hope to stop making you cry.
One day I hope to put a smile on your face,

I wonder why I wander..
I wonder
For how long shall I wander
In search of lost touch of silk of you.
Blistered heels will never stop from moving,
Until I can't walk anymore.
Winds are carrier of your onion breath
Laugh it out..
But it's the rebirth of spring in my mind.
You will find me where eternal thoughts collide,
Maze of notions where my dreams reside.
Bloomy is now gloomy
Thunder is now blunder
Internal commotion whispers
You are the missing piece in me.

@Mirakeeworld @pa_poems @writersnetwork @shegram @soulwriters @cyan_rose @book_lover_and_proudThe Road
It's a cold, cold road,
In the bleakest wastes,
Where I tread my path,
On the course it takes,
Takes me far away,
From the ones I love,
To a lonely land,
That's empty enough,
To rid myself of these demons inside,
Step by step, mile by mile.

Exile
Slowly the darkness diminishes,
Gradually the light of hope rises...
Is it the time to come out of Shadows?
Is the scare gone of hanging in the gallows?
I see a light in far distance,
Let's go fetch it this instance,
Is it too late to decorate a smile?
Is the time right to come out of exile?

After 14 years of exile
On a dark night
Divine Prince Rama returned to Ayodhya
Rescued his wife, Sita, from Ravana
With his protector and brother
Hanuman and lakshmana by his side...
They defeated the demon king
And brought light to the realm
Victory of light over darkness
Good over evil
And knowledge over ignorance ...
That night is remembered as Diwali
For many came out with lamps
Under the moonless night
To greet the Warriors
And give light to their path
For history remember them as the Ramayana...
.
☆Victory of light over darkness
Good over evil
And knowledge over ignorance☆
Happy Diwali to all those celebrating ❤❤❤
