what happiness looks like...

Image
When I was a kid I used to think that happiness in life was all about big happenings, great strokes of luck and flushy stuff. And so I started looking for extraordinary things, I waited for special events to happen but I was missing the real happiness the small things and the small victories, I didn't appreciate what really mattered: the sun on my skin the feeling of walking barefoot in a field the smile on a stranger's face the taste of a freshly baked pie the lyrics of an old song the warmth of my grandma's hands the smell in the air just before it starts to rain the satisfaction of my first paycheck the freedom you feel when you drive at night with the windows down and the music loud the sadness you feel when you finish reading a really good book the smell of coffee in the morning, when you just woke up. Those little and maybe trivial feelings are what real happiness is about.

if you care for me

  If you care for me It will show clearly In your words that you speak In the touch that I feel In the eyes That you have Looking into mine with right feelings Your soul with entwined mine And so will your emotions. It will all show if you love The expressions expressed The smile vibrant The laughter and the zest Your enthusiasm and the zeal. It will all show crystal clear The feelings you have for me No matter how much you try to hide  It will flow into me Following where ever I be Until it overpowers me   And I can feel it all In the way you care The words you share Tears you shed Concern you show Always on your toe   It all tells me extremely clearly  That without guesses I speak here surely It's love with the capitals there and I know it was always there And I know it will always be here for me, for us. 

what I really want!!!

If all I do  Is watch the night sky  In my jammie  Taking in damp air  sitting on the terrace Living the moment I"ll be fine without you. If all I do  Is going on a drive  Outside the town & watch the drop of water over the mirror of our car I"ll be smiling through drizzle rainy days. If all I do  Is sipping my favorite hazelnut coffee In my favorite coffee house  & scribbling eternity of words  On the beloved sitting corner. If all I do  Is sit alone write about things I miss most  & have my favorite snacks I"ll be at peace without complaining about anything. If all I do  Is just spend my weekend With lying close to someone  & talk about the issue I'm facing  & someone solving my dilemmas I"ll be loving him a lot  More than I ought to. If all I do  Is not spend my time overthinking  & making my own assumptions I"ll not write this intense & harsh reality of mine. If all I do  Is do what I want for so long  I'll be

This is how we lose the era we cherish!!

This is how we lose the era we cherish, One day at a time With one less call & more thoughts. On the Activa ride home I watch the city Sky in many shades Colour blending into each other As if they don't care  But within a minute they were apart  But how do we fix it? This is how we lost the era we cherish, One day at a time, Where we ride in the opposition direction, One less phone call, One more unread message,  & one less person to love. When I feel distant from everyone I sit in the balcony  Starting those yellow leaves turning green  & let the sky color me blue. On those days when I was happy I only write about faiths &  the soul who loves me  & Told me you are the best. I remember that was last autumn  Where I had stop overthinking, Where I don't give a damn about anything Just living & enjoying. & this is what I mean When I say I can taste memories I know the feel of autumn On my mind & heart. But Autumn is here But those memori

more meaning?

 When I say I want more I mean more flower on bad days, I mean more coffee on my worst days, More video call with my loved ones, More righteous chitchat,  & some bad jokes. When I say I want more That doesn't mean  subtle & fancy dress or shoes I mean some mountains & Maggie or some white lilies, Sunshine & the curtains that dance in the breeze I mean chants of a wind chime in the balconies, Candle night coffee with to all the boy's movie. When I say I want more That mean no more bad days I mean more quiet peace moments & some rays,  More is not a voracious things For me, it's a pleasant thing in a better way.

these days

  I wish there were more things That could spark hope You know it's a bit odd  & a lot shabby, I know it's not poetic  But let's go to the point  Being alone sucks  Scrolling feeds, 100's of messages on social media  & then avoiding everyone sucks too. Seeing all those close people, your BFF Posting shit sending streak Feels like why I'm here, why not there, It tears me apart Because  I don't know what I'm doing  Even sometimes it feels like I knew it But then I get a sudden feeling like "is it worthy enough". But yeah I know this season  I'm being selfish  Thinking about me & my career But why not? Why should I feel guilty  Choosing my career first as a priority, It's not that poetic, right? Yeah, it's a reality. Everyday living the same life Entangled with same work Seeing other stories feeling jealous, It's like trapped  in the same cage Well let's say reality always suck Now let make this poetic , The clouds keep

coping up with myself

All my life  I have been trying to walk on straight lines Because my mama told me from my tot till today, To measure what comes out of my mouth.  Living in the 21st century  & being blunt & honest women, Is entirely indigestion to fogy-prone people. Extra miles and meters of spilled truth from my mouth Could ruin my image of being a decent woman. Being raised in an Orthodox family  They grasp me zillions of time Tattooed me unknowingly, To tie my tongue with the words of decency,  & seal my lips with morality stamps  & hide my opinion in my back pocket  Whether it's right or wrong. Mostly I was advised to Sit back and listen to all the old age buzzes, I was never advised to Lay my opinions out of the box, Unrestricted. Because of this  I never learned when and how  To raise the right question or sentiments   & now I became more like a less talkative girl in this 21st century, Who is longing to be heard Without any judgments  Or without any fears. & now I am
