The tall grass swayed as I ran through the fields of time,
Looking for places to run and hide,
I could not subdue the voracious ghost,
Had tried tried to mend it- but it only broke me
Tried to fight it- but it turned me into a monster
In the end I became a tad wiser
What you cant face run from it fast
Life is a race anway, cant go back now
Today running away from yesterday
As days start to fly like free birds in flight
And tomorrow from today, while the sun goes down.

Singing my lost melody in the iron cage
Normal was lonely
I hoped and wished of the endless blue
But those hopes and dreams broke
They broke into little gems
Just like the millions of stars on the night sky
I think about what I missed
And I am so far behind
Fighting the dark past,
The ghostly shadow that creeps inside me
Everyone can see it in my eyes
It is taking me away
From where I want to be
Who I want to be...
Nonetheless my mind is set
To vanquish the ghost, or forever remain caged

She glides across the sky at dawn
To come light up my night with her golden glimmer
Her nourising words heal my hurt
As the warm stanzas wrap around my heart
I love the way she sculpts the words
Carving me poetic wings
We mound the winds and chase after happiness
Across the early morning sky
One day I hope
My verses will find her lyrical womb
And make her pregnant with a dozen suns
To rein over the dark realms forevermore

Mirror by my bedside
Why are you in cahoots with the inner man?
Expose him
Give me a three dimension reflection
What you hide
When you feed my fantasy?
What sentiments you keep burried
Among a thousand reflections?
Plastic reflections you give me
Sunrise and sunsets
Thriving in impressions
You suffocate the real me,vainly
Can you see past my face?lets face it,
In darkness will you see a light in this heart?
In light will you reveal hiding gloom?
Lift off your make-up tonight, dont fake it
Show me where
Visions thin into illusions
Strip it all down, give me the explicit
An imperceptive liar you've become
You frustrated some
They smashed their fist into you, lied to you
Everything that you hide someday explodes
Show me you so I show you me
Be true
And I will be real
Don't care how long it lasts

Crawling over broken glass for adoration,
Acceptance and fulfilment
The heart beats fraily
Hemorrhaging with disappointment
The world spoke promises that never came back
Occasionally they echo in mocking reverberation
The D man below eager, drinking and licking
Every drop leaking from my sour cuts
The world is beautiful with its facades
Encouraging young roses bloom beautifully
But then they wither sadly
The sky leaks happy showers occasionally
That dissolve in a sea of sourness
I look out from my pensive window
Streets are washed in acidic struggles
Trees suffocated and emaciated
Someone once cared for them
Now they don't
Sadistic eyes stare at me
As i watch the world from my window
I dare not step out, I retreat to my cocoon
Where it is just me and my faithful alphabets
Unconditionally the love
Faithfully they never let go
I roll and twirl them into a bandage for my wounds
So the horned man below does not **** life out of me

You are the tourist through my wild feelings
You visit intermittently with expectations
Seeking gratification to your longing
You have the best of time then you are departed
We have unrivaled fun when you are here
But before long you are gone and I remain alone
Sharing my blues with my ink and brush
And my happiness with my faithful alphabets
You awe and oh
Confusing scars for beauty spots
Why dont you stay
Face my predators with me
I may paint a mountain of hope
Which you will admire but never climb
I may paint a dispossessed face
But it will never be you
You may imagine yourself in my shoes
But you will never wear them
I may touch your heart
But I may never win it
My wild feelings are the coke
That give you a temporary high you seek
Ours is no strings attached so I wake up alone
Feeling empty after a night of excitement
You like me but you wont stay
I will give you the best time when you visit
And miss you when you are gone
When its just me and my faithful alphabets

Where do they go
Those who vanish from the face of the earth?
Do they find peace?
Can a broken heart be mend there?
Does wretchedness end or stick
Do they find new beginnings?
I can die for a fresh start
But one can never be sure
So I keep having these thoughts...

My heart beats to the rhythm,
It dances like a butterfly,
In tge glimmering glory of His love
Which flows like a waterfall from above
Oceans way from home,
My destination lost in the hazy horizons,
Engulfed in loneliness I still find peace,
My mountain of hope and belief still stands
The beat of His love makes my heart dance
A song of hope even in blues
I feel revivified like drenched leaves
After a midsummer rain
And I forget all the pain
I soar and dive like ocean tides
In the golden sunrise
When He commands dark storms to be still
Nothing can bring me down
To His name only I bow
He's the stringer of this song called life
The pianist who makes my heart to dance

Somewhere in the town I heard a strange humming lullaby
That I've never heard before
As my heart beat It made a match to her humming lullaby
Her presence was unexpected
Now I feel protected
Just by having her warmth
She is the only one that understands my story
My worries and my sorrows
She gives me a feeling that no one else can
Her touch is so, magical
And the beat of her gentle touch is so classical
While she places some kisses on my lips I'm so,
gentle to her because her fragile touch reminds me that she is the only one
Possesing every inch of me
She modifies my disposition with her magical hands
So I hit play and wind her back
When my world seems gloomy
She arrives with the sun
And slowly she tosses the sun rays Reminding me that every is alright
I lay back and give her control
She beats the pain out of me
When i turn on my speakers
Her carresing hands so sensitive begin to touch
Exitement and anticipation builds
I hold her tenderly in my arms
And sink slowly away in her lyrical pureness
On our ecstatic trip to paradise
She meets all of my needs
So i ****** to the beat,move every part of me
Moment of total bliss
As I explore every inch of her curves
With her its a perfect world
With smooth lines she serenades
Chanting sweetly about my prowess
Twirling and jingling with fondness
Falling for her allures
I perform the hardest contortions
Marinade myself in her positive vibes
My hands tight around her
Rhythm changes,
We go high ,we go low
then higher like shooting stars
Breathlessly till we ******
And start on the free fall
She is my shoulder to cry on
My molly to feel mellow
Her love spell is so powerful
She does all that I please
She hypnotises me with intense lyrics
Reminds me of lost passion
Future love and magic
As we move along in slow steps
A love song
She is there whenever I desire her
She is forever youthful and beautiful
Her tune is full of promises
She lights up my blues
Laughs with me and cries with me
Till the beats fade away
Carrying with them my pensive moods
When the sun kisses the sky for good night
She makes sure that tonight the sky is full of star's and with the moon
Laying in my bed room before I sleep
She wraps her arms around me
Till we fall asleep
All I need in this world is her glitter touch of her soul
And her glitter soul
Forever in my world

He forages on my doubts
Keeps me sleepless with distress
The real me is envious of me
She is all he wants
Can she stand the real me?
I resent the disgraceful me
Can't look at my reflection in the mirror
He threatens my core existence
So I fight to keep him burried
He mocks, taunts and mortifies
Even as she tells me I have beautiful eyes
It is good she cant peep inside through those windows
And see the struggles inside
I keep him padlocked in the depths
Listen to music and tour nice places
But in the quietest of moments
He creeps back to me
Dampens my spirit
Telling me I am way below
Not good enough
That I will ***** up as always
It is worrying what he can do
Destroy a lifetime in a day
Turn love to hate in a moment
But I wont let him hurt her
I'll leave her if I have to
