Merna Ketana May 2021
I sleep with memories in my heart
Ache in my stomach
And thunder in my mind
And I don't hesitate about breaking
Instead I cry myself to sleep
Like any human with love that never belongs to anyone
Merna Ketana May 2021
You are blind to your desires
This broken sin, it is ours
Born from our weakness
Into our bleakness
Well-fed guilt and brutal shame
A flame that has no mortal name
Merna Ketana Apr 2021
I'll speak freely to your liveliness

Till all threads of life are torn

Cause we're dying, we've been dying

Since the day that we were born
Merna Ketana Apr 2021
Those flashes of remembrance
So greedy and unjust
Won't give her one a chance
Of giving in to trust
Merna Ketana Apr 2021
Learnt to aim, learnt to shoot

And your shot, it never missed

Fed your rifle sacred words

Vowed you faith will pass the test
Merna Ketana Apr 2021
I still stumble when I fall in love

And I break my heart in two or three

And I use the pieces to fuel my lust

And I use my lust to feel free
Merna Ketana Apr 2021
I know it's in your eyes
You like to fool all night
I'll wear my favorite riot
And crawl my way to you

I know you feel this shame
You cannot tame your pain
I'll break my heart again
To build this home with you

I'll shut my inner voice
Ignore this demon's noise
I'll make one final choice
And fall in love with you
