My last poetry series "Valleys to Jump Into" haunted a few of you and i believe it was not really my best work but i did got many compliments from friends who texted me how much they liked it. So thank you for that. Now its obvious why i am here and the reason being a new poetry series is on the way. Its my departure from something dark to even more darker work. However this time you won't need therapy because its laced in the color pink, meaning its sprinkled with love even if it might be dark, sadder. This new poetry series is called "Velvet Coffin".
This poetry series is something that i have always wanted to write. It is not just about the theme of it but about the people who inspired it. Its about the love that destroys you but also about loving the pain that comes from a different kind of love. In simple terms, this series is about finding love in every bleeding caused by the lover and finding pain in every hurt caused by a lover. It uses swords, knives, guns, cemetery, blood, black rose, wine, cigarette, constellation, stars etc as a metaphor to convey all my feelings. That is why this series is divided into two parts: Part-I romanticizes the pain you want from a lover and Part-II confronts the pain that came from the other lover. That is the whole poetry series surrounds the theme of "pain". To some, this may read like toxicity. To me, this reads like a worship. Even if i'm bleeding, i want to smile. And when i'm smiling, i want to find the hurt that one hide behind a smile. I wrote the Part-I about someone whose character is nowhere near what is written in poems but i cannot confirm that about the character from Part-II. The poems in this series are:
