Hunger-wearing-black-booted-
Midnight-shadow-street-corner-­blue-
Bartender-bassoon-smooth-wailing-horn,
Tonight pull me while I'm burner-raw-torn.
Desiccate-night-thirst wake me. Tease.
Moon CFM drown me, break me.
Roaming-desert-music, seize me.
Viola-tight-throat-hum-love, sting!
Tonight no hope, I need to sing.

I used to read your poems
but lately you don't write
you're silent and aloof
you know that isn't right.
You can't close a door once opened
you can't abolish all your dreams
you're a poet of the heart
mustn't fall apart at the seams.
Say what you can in words
they speak the message true
spoken from the heart
the poems will see you through.
A hermit's not your style
a recluse, you are not
never give up writing
of things that you've been taught.
I used to read your poems
I'd read them once again
if you would send them out
(this one's from a poet friend)

Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head.Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head.  Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head. Get out of my head.


Get out of my head before I tell you the truth.
Get out of my head before I do what you're telling me to.
Get out of my head before I listen.
Get out of my head before I can't take it anymore.

Get out of my head before I tell you the truth.
Get out of my head before I do what you're telling me to.
Get out of my head before I listen.
Get out of my head before I can't take it anymore.  
                      
Get out of my head before I tell you the truth.
Get out of my head before I do what you're telling me to.
Get out of my head before I listen.
Get out of my head before I can't take it anymore.

Get out of my head and I'll tell you the truth.
Get out of my head and I'll do what you're telling me to
Get out of my head and I'll listen
Get out of my head and I'll take it more

Get out of my head before you start to care
Get out of my head before you say you liked me
Get out of my head before it hurts me too much
Get out of my head before you make more lies

Get out of my head, and don't start crying
Get out of my head, and move on from me
Get out of my head, and remember my past
Get out of my head, and try to help

Meera
He doesn't burn photographs
He doesn't join therapy sessions
He doesn't smoke too many cigarettes
Nor he drown himself into alcohol
He scratches his wounds daily
And never let them heal
He doesn't try to get rid of the pain
Instead he let it grow on him
He waters the seed of sorrow with his tears
He feeds it with the manure of old memories
He takes it to sleep with him
And nurtures it in himself
Till the moment when every single drop of his blood gets replaced by this pain
Until his fragile heart can bear no more
And his soul starts overflowing with emotions
That's when he dip his pen into this pain
And empty his heart on a piece of paper
He bares his soul for us to feel
He creates poetry that the world would cherish for centuries to come
That's how true poetry comes into existence
