You don't need to, close your eyes
It's just my steps, and drops of rain
The floor is cold
And you in pain
Darling, let me hold you
It's not a sin....
Baby trust me once
And I'll ask no more
Just holding hands
Let your feelings pour
You don't need to, close your eyes
It's just my steps, and drops of rain
Your trembling hands
Touch my face
I know you scared
Just let me embrace
Baby, hold me tight
Look.. don't you cry
It's gonna be okay
With one more try
You don't need to, close your eyes
It's just my steps, and drops of rain
In the ambience of this silence
Rest your head on me
I'll be your padlock
And you my only key
The rain has stopped
Your tears are dry
I hope you understand me
Please don't lie
You don't need to, close your eyes
It's just my steps, and drops of rain

A candle unlit
A room so cold
A broken window
Is all I hold

My love, my life
I've lost to thee
It is my fate
But I want to be free

Why, my love
You had to leave?
Was my love not enough
Or you didn't belive

Instead, you smile
Like nothing's wrong
While seeing another hand
Touching you for long

It is okay, I guess now
To forget you for good
Even your memories
To erase, if only I could

It is easier for you
To say goodbyes
To the hand that holds you now
Doesn't know your lies

I hope you treat her right
And she might treat you same
Unlike my drowning fate
Else, she might end up same...

May relate to some, it's never too late to move on...

Bright fullmoon emerge
The dews fall like diamonds
Small sparkles drop slow
Embracing the momentum
In the most inventive way

Ears deaf, lips cracked
Hearts broken
Belongings packed
Trembling hands unlock
The lonely steps ahead

Cold and rainy, soaked
All of me is wet
Tears stand no value
Only hate is what I get

Looking back again
For the years have long past
The pain is still fresh
Memories pour in to blast
My lonely days ahead...

The vengeance of morrow clouds
Move in ugly hounds
Provoking the unspoken to reach,
With guns and machetes handed to each
No mercy to the grounds that soak
The innocent blood of the vulnerable bloke
Help no other, of why should one
A hit shot dead, from a firing gun
Unarmed, visibility proof shown
Then why, was he deliberately disowned
Skin deep colors, reflect those eyes
When questioned, they ***** all lies
The growing crisis, has built cratic
Racism trolls, what remains static?
Absurd riots, counting the days
Shame no shame on the current slays
The one almighty, patiently watching all
One by one, the countries will fall...

It's very sad to read the current US news.

The fray cries I hear
Of broken fallen angels
Is just hard to bear
Cast from their heavenly realms
Roaming in deserts and dusts

Most hearts
Sink in an ocean of pain
Most minds
Spill thoughts stress and drain
Most eyes
Cry, till the tears are no more
Most sit
And watch the sunset by the shore
Most beg
For the old love to stay
But then,
They all find way and ways to go away...
