Insane Inconvenience

-

I’m a story that hasn’t been told

a secret that hides in plain sight

a mess that hasn’t seen the daylight

a song that hasn’t been sung

Inconvenience is my middle name

I’m a ticking bomb in human form

as destructive as a storm

they should call me a catastrophe

the kind that wipes out the mundane

stability doesn’t stand a chance in my world

I’m a gorgeous kind of insane

I’m a scream that no one hears

I’m the smile veiling the tears

I’m a dark wrapped in lightning

that blinds you with its brightness

and so, I’ve got to confess

that messy is my nickname

I lend water to the rain

I'm a gorgeous kind of insane

  “I’m sorry, I did it again, I didn’t think” exactly my point I mentioned you in conversations that had nothing to do with you I manufactured a link when I didn’t think, I shimmied when I saw you a hundredth time, with a joy so new I couldn’t afford to blink when I didn’t think, I told them I’ll call them later until it was too late for you, I made all of them wait eyes on you, the world could die when I didn’t think, I sat right next to you hands held together by an imaginary glue I sipped from your drink when I didn’t think, I held you and danced slow I copied your “though” I loved you and I wanted to show I filled your heart up to the brink when I didn’t think, I think we speak from our heart when not thinking with our brain which is why I always begun with yours and you always concluded with my name -maithili

arms that can carry me a heart that can carry my intensity a mind willing to quiet down and understand a palm that wants to feel my hand a pair of eyes that follow my silhouette I’ll take no less than what I offer It’s a simple plan, give your lover girl her lover man a man that reads my poetry like a Muslim his salah like a scholar his literature a priest his scripture I’ll take some insanity since love can’t survive in people too wise I’ll take some innocence the kind that brings tears to your eyes a love I don’t have to beg for a love that’s first nature I want a man that knows my writing like a Muslim his salah like a scholar his literature -maithili

downside

 I'm a calamity I'm afraid of my thoughts a chaos  I run from rumination but I can't seem to leave it behind  so intelligent I lose my mind what music can't tame I'm up against my brain  I give it information to consume when I don't, it consumes me instead I think more than what's been said then I open the DSM hoping it would answer my what, why and when I try one book after another  and nothing has been said about what's it like inside my head It's a battle I dread I'm up against my head I run and I run But how do you run from what's inside  imagine intelligence having a downside -maithili
