Depresso

When ESPRESSO by Sabrina Carpenter is on repeat daily, a funny exchange between friends led me to write this...







Now he's cheating on me every night, oh

Isn't it shit? I guess so

Says he can't sleep, baby, I know

That's not with me, depresso

Can't move up, down, left, right, oh

He's got a new Nintendo

Says he can't sleep, baby, I know

That's not with me, depresso


I can relate to depression

My 'give a fucks', have no vacation

And I got this one boy

And he won't be picking

When they act this way

I know I lost 'em


Too bad I am the ex for ya

Walked in and my dream you ruined for me

Soft skin and I need pills for me

I know I need more than Mountain Dew for me

That morning sickness, puked for me

No touch and I am a monk for ya


Now he's cheating on me every night, oh

Isn't it shit? I guess so

Says he can't sleep, baby, I know

That's not with me, depresso

Can't move up, down, left, right, oh

He got a new Nintendo

Says he can't sleep, baby, I know

That's not with me, depresso


Isn't it shit? I guess so


I'm working late 'cause I'm a developer

Oh, I am a nerd, but my code has an error

My twisted humor scares him often

Not my honey bee, he wants different pollen


Too bad I am the ex for ya

Walked in and my dream you ruined for me

Soft skin and I need pills for me

I know I need more than Mountain Dew for me

That morning sickness, puked for me

No touch and I am a monk for ya


Now he's cheating on me every night, oh

isn't it shit? I guess so

Says he can't sleep, baby, I know

That's not with me, depresso

Can't move up, down, left, right, oh

He got a new Nintendo

Says he can't sleep, baby, I know

That's not with me, depresso


Isn't it shit? I guess so

That's me depresso

Polished Sins

  A suit and tie, that polished smile, Covering up sins stacked mile by mile. They flaunt “new love,” someone else’s child— A ready-made story, perfectly styled. They’ve “levelled up,” or so they preach, But on someone’s pain, they made their reach, With vows of loyalty, words so neat, While another’s screams lie beneath their feet. Oh, they “moved on” to brighter skies, Leaving someone broken, with silent cries. They mount new heights, they shout and boast— Scaling peaks on another's haunted ghost. So smile for the camera, flash your pride, Show off the life that you tried to hide. For we know the truth beneath your gleam— A hollow show, a self-made scheme.

Stay Away

Stay away, stay away Keep those hands away Stay away, stay away I am not on display Stay away, stay away I just want my name on the hard black clay Stay away, stay away I am a kid who just wants to play Stay away, stay away All these memories are like a never-ending screenplay ~ Kanika Kaushal ✨ The Luminous Muse

Model Men and Their Modern Myths

  Here come the men who love their pride, With “culture” on speed dial, their mothers beside them. They want a wife who’ll light the lamp, While they scroll through pages of virtual vamp. They call themselves leaders, oh so wise, But sex ed is a topic they just despise. If you ask them about anatomy's flow, They’ll stammer, then boast about paychecks to show. Progressive now, they’ll have you believe, Because daughters study, and daughters leave The home to work—but don’t go too far, Or they’ll pull you right back by some invisible bar. They crave the respect, the honour, the fame, Yet when faced with real talk, they’re quick to shame. These "modern men" with their ancient views— One foot in the past, and the other confused. Oh, fools of entitlement, kings of the mud, With egos so fragile, they’re bound to flood At the slightest nudge of applied insight— They’ll laugh, then pull you out of their sight. So here’s to these men, these leaders so grand, With “values” in one, ...
