My morning coffee sits by me
Hopelessly staring with cold eyes
It’s another lazy morning
Another half empty cup of coffee
That I refuse to warm up
There are tons of unread unseen messages
Of people who I thought I loved
People who claimed that loved me
But all in vain
The heat of coffee
And the heat of those claims
Is long gone..
When I am lying here
With words falling flat
On my blind eyes
And deaf ears
When my tongue is heedless
To the taste and warmth
That’s not me
Not what I used to be
When silence and noise
Sounds exactly the same
I can’t even tell them apart
Have I met that stupidly glorified state?
Of eternal stillness
That people call peace
Nirvana, to sound fancy
Or I just have broken ties
With everyone and everything
That was capable
Of making me feel anything at all..

I wonder about how such feelings come to be. I was absent from WP, for five days, given that there was a Convergence, which took me offline and a needful friend has dominated my real time. So, know that you may cling to my wall, and I will get back to this.
