Elegy of the Shining Knight
Brown never mattered to me as a colour until it was in you. And now that I have nothing left to say, Atleast I have this colour of you on me to stay. Though for the last I'd maybe like to say, Nothing fazes me. Your rigid self, you in that way. And that please come back, it grows deeper And I love you...till this day

Brown.
"Mother." It was night, everything was black, That was the moment, when I looked back. She was there, standing still, While I was a kid, running at her down the hill. She was looking at me in her loving style, I was in her arms.. we both passed a smile. She ran her hands in my hair, I thought she was gone, 'til she said "I'm here." I knew she missed me but I miss her more, Then she said "you can't live like this anymore." So why don't you come back? Why are you living with god? You created me.. you are more than the lord. Come back, catch my lies.. Look at me... Fix my life. When I cry, to make me smile, Roar! Hold my hand, when i'm afraid to cross the road. Give me the love like nobody else would, Hide me when I'm scared only in your hood. The night is gone.. the sun will rise soon, But your weight lies in my chest... when I look at the moon. You gave my life the light I didn't know I needed, And soon enough, the light went out and i'm back to being a kid who looked at you when god was needed.

"Mother"
Sometimes I miss paying for two. I miss you, do you do too? Last I looked back, You were there with your hand holding out for me to hold, I held it, and I didn't let go. Everything else is pretty much a blur, But you remember it all, I was the foolish one, pretty much dumb. I don't recall what exactly happened, but after I woke up, everything was numb. My hand was empty, but the weight was still there Waited for you to see me, at your favourite zoo, But, sometimes, I miss paying for two. I'm seeing the world, when mine is seeing a face, You clearly left, without leaving a trace. I'm forgetting the way you'd talk, I'm forgetting the way you'd walk, I'm forgetting your angry huffs, The way you'd jump when you got a hiccup, The way you'd tickle me when I felt low, The way you'd see me when I felt unknown. You gave me the most memories, now you're becoming one, I need your help, but you're now truly the moon. I passed by your favourite cafe, Another hand in mine, But my head recalled to the way you'd hold mine. I ran, really far, But all I approached, was the shadow of your car. You seemed happy, You seemed hallowed, So I left, my hand sole, finding who? That's when I truly realized, I miss paying for two.
