PAIN v LOVE
i have seen it all
yeah i know it hurts
cause i have felt it all
the pain that lies after the break
or the joy that remains after the kiss
i have felt it all & seen it all
it makes no sense why our mind
our soul needs love to that extent
to the point were everything is just not worth it

i have seen it all
that's why all i do is wonder
why the heart doesn't just speak
instead of making our minds restless
or why the mind doesn't just speak plainly
instead of troubling hearts with irregular flow
cause it makes no sense at all
when we see love we're paralyzed with utter curiosity
and when it is gone we're left with utter diversity

sometimes the pain go away
just as a warm air as it passes smooches our skin
when inhaled flows into our lungs lukewarm
and never leaves a trail of any sought
whereas some pain caused by loving
repeatedly becomes a course that runs
it's session every single hour of the day
and pours down like an angry waterfall
just flowing with no intent of stopping

it baffles me that only memory of the pain
stays behind and all the joy that was felt
just somehow become so insignificant
it makes no sense at all
cause i have seen it all
and i have somehow felt it all

Pain v Love was inspired by the truth of how we become after we have lost someone or something so dear. Only one can stay behind

DARK REALMS
the carnality of my soul
could not let me be
every time i close my eyes
i always have a vision of you
a vision i cannot seize  
each time I'm awake

i was taken into the darkest of realms
where only our demons should go
i was taken from your arms
i could not fight back, my strength was against me  
i could not stand up to the blackness
i was held captive, shackled to my feet
locked away in a dark dungeon
yet the goodness of your heart could not let you be
you risked everything to come see my face
even your life you want to jeopardize for me

i screamed to myself
what would i do, if my vision sees the light
how can i leave without your breath on my shoulders
all my questions were empty
all my thoughts was about you
how can i stop you from coming down to see me?
and so prayed to the God of the skies
the one in charge of our hearts
to please punish me with my wronging  
as i am willing to go down for my sins
but should please oh God please
do not let my vision see the breaking of day

We all desire a love life that is beautiful, the one without dark days
As beautiful as it  is to imagine, true love requires dark days and thoughts of it as well
