You are like the scar on my hand,
I've been trying to get rid of.
But it just seems to stay
No matter what i do
I hate it
I don't want it
I try to rub it off again
And my skin starts bleeding.

I've been bleeding out words
Realizing that its just a pointless scribble.
I've been reciting poems into the void
Hoping someone would decipher it.

The people around me compel me to go home
They tell me that i don't belong here
But this wind
This mysteriously blowing wind
Kisses my cheeks
Embraces every strand of my hair
Gently caresses my knuckles
And says 'don't let them dim the light that shines in your eyes'
And somehow i know that this place
this place,right here
is where i want to be!

If only i had known it was the last time, would we have made the goodbyes any better?
If only i had known it was the last time, would we have stayed a little longer?
If only i had known it was the last time, would we have made out in the last seat of the theatre?
If only i had known it was the last time,
would i have watched you closer?
If only i had known it was the last time, would i have listened carefully to your constant blabber?
If only i had known it was the last time, would i have stared right into your eyes and made you change your decision?
If only i had known it was the last time, would our little infinity have lasted forever?

I know not who you are
A delusional angel
Or a phantom devil
A potential catastrophe
Or a pocketful of sunshine
An oblivious beauty
Or a deliberate attempt
At hiding the scars
But whatever you are
Please be true
Because this heart
Has been shattered by few

Whenever i have questions
I look up at the sky
For the stars to lead my way
But today when i gazed up
The stars had formed a strange pattern
A question mark as it seemed to be
For the first time the sky was dazed
Not every question requires an answer
Not even, why you left and never looked back.

Almost
Such a terrible word
Shatters you into a million pieces
Takes every ounce of you
before being uttered
Takes you within a hair's breadth of the target
And then kicks you miles away
Makes you question the stars
Even when it was your fault all along
Creeps up in your mind
at the middle of the night
Like a robber
Leaving you behind to search
your hallways for answers
I was almost there
I was almost there and yet not.
