Where did all the promises go?
Were all the “I love you”s as empty as your heart was?
My heart aches for you
It always will
But you don’t seem to get that
You’re the one causing me so much pain
Yet you blamed me for feeling too much.

Observing the lives today, I found them pretty clichéd.
People  are  doing  boring, average  things,
Belonging  to  the  same old  category;
Lined up in a queue of monotony.
Though,  some  souls  do  exist,
Who love to step out of line;
Who despise falling in.
*Those are the ones
Who stand out.
Imagery. ^And this is not clichéd ;)

The end of what we have started.
We have't reached there yet
But it'll happen
sooner or later.
Let's pretend we never met
what would it be like.
who are we?
Do we feel the same?
It'll be different
Maybe boring.
We've created something bad
And whatever it is called
It is messing our heads up
Taking away all of our energy
Smashing our hearts.
This isn't what love looks like
This is something we started
And we never put an end to it.
Are we happy
We are not.
Always in a challenge
In a hurry to say goodbye
Before we end a conversation.
Always in doubt.
This isn't love
This is madness.

Bare feet and sunshine.
Dancing, singing splashing water.
A perfect day of May.
This goes to my lovely friends

Sun
Whilst sun rays beam,
on this longing cement,
Grass and nature perk,
leaning towards goals,
waiting for rain in drought,
As dry as deserts,
Like gunpowder to a musketeer,
Dry, explosive in heat,
Skin and fur are touched,
by her light feathery reach.

Soul and hearts enter zones,
of tranquility and peace,
Blackest of seas,
Appear as turquoise overtones,
Yearning over this land,
we call home,
When its truly her house,
of sanctuary, her humble abode,
Birds sing harmonic tunes,
through gaps in trees,
Minds are opened,
like gates to a throne,
Separated,
From a plethora of clouds,
That weigh us down like anvils.

Within our persona,
we expect greatness,
over uncontrollable forces,
But she grins and laughs,
like a sinister angel,
of giving and forgiving,
All the while,
Earth remains spinning,
She sustains extant,
And keeps us living.

Two love birds in a tree,
Please stand by me.
