So here it comes to test my faith
Changing itself again and again
A disguise like no other
But carries on itself a negative rain

Everyday, it follows me like my shadow
Even I can feel its foul breath on my neck
Whispering tongues of filth
And today it tapped my back

A new test, everyday comes along
It knows my faith is strong
Yet, tries every of its ways to delude me
But gets leashes for its wrong

The pretentious predator preying
Eating away my shiney days
Clouding up heavy bags on me
And often does its own praise

I've tried to block its existence
By not hearing its sweet talks
Rather I chanted and prayed to God
While it did its pendulum walks

I stopped feeding it with my ego
And the arrogance I had
It was dying naturally, leaving
While all the negatives cleared from my head

I wonder, why my heart cries
I wonder, why there's pain
I wonder, why there's tears in my eyes
And who's there to blame

For you are long gone, out of my sight
Into the arms of your future wife

I wonder, why there were promises made
I wonder, why we could not keep
I wonder, why you let our love fade
And let our moments, skip

For now you do not look at me
Like the way you used to see

Burning my love, onto the lips
Of the other, whom you just kissed

Remember, the times we've spent
Remember, the love we shared
Remember, the places we went
And how much you cared

But, look at you now
Swaying along like a celebrity
With a different girl each day
You gained enormous superiority

Will you just stand there and let me go
Out of your sight, into the blue

Will you not beg me to stay
Rather ignore me, like a stray

You seemed long gone, out of my sight
Into the arms of your future wife  

I wonder, why my heart still cries
I wonder, why there is still pain
Deeply,
Buried in my eyes...*
