Unpredictable Fires
Seema Aug 2017
The hungry flames dance
Upon the mighty fire
Reaching the silent skies
It leaps on higher

The rage grows more at a time
Burning everything in its way
Turning greens into ashes
Letting the charcoalled trees sway

Smoke and heat everywhere
Animals and forest creatures lost
Unfriendly fire like a devils stare
Many lives it has tragically cost

Perhaps rain would've shown mercy
But unfortunately it hadn't rained
For almost a year and half now
This part of the earth is much pained

Seen recent forest fires in the news
I am thankful as we are on tropical ground
For the suffering countries in despair
I hope more help gets around...

She Was...."The Lady"
Seema Aug 2017
She was a beautiful priceless princess
So caring, kind and helpful
Her marriage life went in trouble
But she was very strong and thoughtful

She was a mother of two boys
The new heir of the queens throne
Her marriage came to an end
She started life on her own

Big controversies surrounded her
Soon she found solace in a guy
But her life was cut short by an accident
Her lovable people were left with--WHY?

She was a darling of many nations
My heart still misses her presence
In this world, a true known lady
Whose stories and life spread as essence

No other could match her simple beauty
She was just a moral figure bold shiner
A well known, supportive and loved by all
She was none other than Lady Diana...

A tribute to the late princess, Lady Diana.

Liar
Seema Aug 2017
For I will, also tell the tale of a liar
Sapping my energy
Then putting himself on fire

A liar he was, a dark angel in disguise
Playing with my heart
Then spitting beautiful lies

Such a fine man, only for my eyes
Seeking my trust
Then setting up his spies

A two-faced twerp, hungry for desire
Fishing his preys
O' he was and is still a liar!

Inner Voice
Seema Nov 2017
I am the inner voice within you
Unheard yet heard by few
I am part of your intellectual feeling
That most time you spend dealing
A positive instinct in your mind
Try hearing the voice to find
Your true feelings that will surely bind
Your heart, your mind, your actions of all kind
Understanding the links, between these
Will definitely contemplate from freeze
Often noticed the lingering thoughts
That stagnant your brain and settles as knots
Well, try relaxing and hear your unheard voice
It's up to you to hear, as it's your own choice
But later when things are not going right
That's when you realise, the instinct was your light
Too many thoughts brim up to flow
Only we know which one's to hold on to
......and which one's to throw
It does work most of the time for many
Even when days are down and you don't have a penny
Follow your first instinct and the voice within
To overcome any regrettion or thoughts of sin...

Time.Changes.Love
Seema Feb 2018
My mind wonders if you loved me
Ever wondered how alone I'll be
You never let a tear form in my eye
But now I wonder if it was a lie
You always made me smile
Hand in hand we used to walk a mile
A most loving person I ever met
In his arms one can forget the rest
My heart still aches for you
Searches the sites to capture your view
A deep pain ignites within my soul
My heart flames up, burns into coal
Crushed each time I saw you with her
Time went fast, now all is at far...

Death Of A Poetic Knight
Seema Oct 2017
In the shadow of darkness
Walks a mighty knight
Dressed in shielded armor
Ready to combat a fight

The paper is my battlefield
While my pen, is a weapon
Choosing a suitable ink
Wondering what will happen

Focusing on ruled lines
My vision, now my enemy
Sitting upright on my desk
Thinking of you and me

Writing our love story
With your favorite color red
Feeling ashamed and sorry
As you breath, the last breath on my bed

I was always strong at hearts
Like indeed a knight at times
Now am like a lost kid, drawn apart
Blamed on a lost battle - committed a crime

The lights have flicked off in a rage
In this dark room, as the candle burns on
The wax drips on this unfinished page
My life to, has undoubtedly gone

A slit on my wrist as the red ink flows
Your love has put me in such a state
Losing you, my life now goes
The death of this knight has become a fate...

Love, A Nightmare
Seema Nov 2017
My tears struggle to flow
My walks have paced slow
I'm dying inside each day
O' what kind of love came my way

I thought love was cherishing
Much more but it's perishing
Love or was it just lust
I gave my all yet lost my trust

O' what wrath has come upon me
Was I too blinded by love to see
You pushed me aside
And showed your true shade

You seem happy with your new bird
You said I was good as dead
Such a love turned into a nightmare
I guess, I just have to live on to bare...

I Wish To Live
Seema Oct 2017
Chuckles is all I hear
In my silent ears
Now I fear

The voices in my head
Spins like thread
Driving me mad

My fingers are numb
I stare like a dumb
Shaking my hand, biting my thumb

Why am I here?
Sitting alone with my tear
An empty glass, looks so clear

Stained hands, clothes torn
What have I done so wrong?
Was this the reason, I was born?

The screaming sirens seem near
Shall I get up when they are here?
What have I done? Why my mind is unclear?

I can't move, I feel stuck
Will it be too late or saved by luck
In this trashed car, hit by a truck

I don't wanna die yet
Remembering all the people I've met
I want to live, live and forget

Exhaustion peaks my eyes to close
I am dying, dying as my body is at lose
No pain, seems I am heavily dosed

I wish to live!
I wish to give!
I wish to achieve!
PLEASE!

Spent Moments
Seema Feb 2018
Not even a moment seems true,
Everyday the tantrums we've been through,
The slangs and slogans people have sprayed on,
It breaks my heart to see you gone,
I know there is no return of you in my life,
But hoping you succeed and thrive,
To become somebody from a nobody,
So one day you will be honored by everybody,
It's ok, I will deal with the shyts people spit around,
Don't worry as you will change with the new surround,
But you forgot to understand the fact of your loss,
Leaving me rusted in this place to flip and toss,
No last hugs, no goodbyes,
Seems like I lived with moments of fine lies,
I remember you said about living life together,
But today I sit back with memories and gather,
The moments that seemed true,
Now, without you...

Insomnia Remedy
Seema Feb 2018
Wide wake trying to sleep,
Won't do good as am awake,
Thoughts hammering bursting my brain,
With eyes numb and tears fall like rain,
I guess am a victim of insomnia,
Disturbing my sleep causing hypochondria,
It's another word to say having sleep disorders,
Where mind sets unrest and messes with my recorders,
Begging sleep to come as I try to shut my eyes,
Remembering you and your honest white lies,
Looking at the clock and watching how time flies,
Indeed am awake looking at the night skies,
However am determined with the sleep remedy,
Soft tunes and instrument playing its melody,
Surely earphones plugged in my ears,
Listening to such music eats away my fears...

A Wonderful Feel
Seema Jan 2018
Love is light
Makes life bright
It all feels right
When you at sight
Full romance in the night
More we understand and less we fight
With your hands holding mine tight
Your kiss makes my day alright
I hope to see you again tonight
Don't say you'll decide
Cause I need you to be by my side
It's a special moment for both of us
As from two of us its going one plus
So this my dear is the news I share
My heart blooms with this feel I bare
Am soon gonna be a bubbly mother
And you my dear child's father
We shall celebrate at the place we met
Years back when you helped me rescue a cat
Since then our love grew
In these few years that flew
I am lucky and happy to have you
In my life you made me all new
From a single to double I will be
In few months you shall see...

Life...A Soggy Page
Seema Dec 2017
This phase
Is like a blank page
No ruled lines
No ink signs
Just torn on the edges
This book has few pages
Seems like a gem of ages
Bathe in dirt and dust
The bind crimbed with rust
I have to see, its a must
This phase
Life is a blank page
No lines no inks
A little torn on the edge
Few chapters
But is no gem
The pages are soggy
Covered in dust and rust
No need to read
It's not a must...

Letting You Go
Seema Dec 2017
I am not asking for your job
Or your wealth
Or your property
I'm only asking for some time
And your loyalty
Your trust
Our togetherness
Your love
And some care
I guess it's just too much to ask
Cause our relationship lost that spark
You showed yourself from behind the mask
It's really too much of a task
For you, you don't deserve me
So I let you free, and I continue to be
The one with most love and care
For you, I let you go rather then to share...

Infatuation
Seema Oct 2017
My anger is not like a bed of snakes
I do my best as what it takes
To calm myself and not to poison your mind
For you took me wrong, I am not of those kind
Who break glasses, plates and vandalise the place
Tho you have offended me by my race
I forgive you, as you apologized on my face
It's alright, I have learnt alot the hard way
I am not ashamed the way I am today
You rushed into a pretty face to get away
From your dark sins to repel and sway
I have noticed everything on and about you
Knowing the end of this relationship was near
Passing over a few hundred days almost a year
Am holding back on my tears, consumed with fear
You are not worth my time nor my tear
No longer you call me to sit by your side
Instead you ignore me and tend to hide
I am more understanding then you ever knew
Everything for you was infatuation that grew
Nonetheless, its a matter of choice
In this crowded world today,
                 ...you even failed to recognize my voice!

Not Fit To Be...
Seema Oct 2017
I do not have the mind to understand you
Neither you have the mind to understand me
Blaming me, will not help as you knew
Everything inside my heart as you had the key
As like an open book, I was to you, until
Your demon started stirring up to fill
The nonsense in your heart and head
You have gone too far as you fed
The key that led to my heart, to the vigorous sense
Cursing me, accusing me, drawing me tense
How cheap your love and respect got
That you believed in your ridiculous thought
Rather witnessing and evidencing the real situation
Hell, would break lose on you to take any action
It's alright, your words have paid enough
To my emotions as it is breaking me apart
I will console myself as I always have
No apologies, as you don't have the nerve
To confront me face to face
Yet you too keen to roll the dice and trace
My emotions back to yourself, villianiously
Like you can try, but you don't know me obviously
I have stepped away from you as far as I can
You gave me alot to think and learn
Thank you, but you...just not fit to be my man!

My thoughts, untamed
I am not able to calm
My ink, now a shame!

So I shall take a break
Till I find my charm

Please don't be alarmed

I will be back, in a few days
With my new good writes
Certainly in a good way
Despite these mood fights!*

Secret Sinner
Seema Aug 2017
My lifeless eyes betrayed
The colors you sprayed
In my own fame of rays
I've spent some silent days

The vibrant colors shone
Like the most beautiful adventure
Inspite of time, all blown
Because of my foolish nature

Wondering what could have been
The most enchanting moments
Ruined all my days, as I've seen
My innocent soul bearing the torments

Why has my mind blocked
My feelings to reach my heart
Each night I am being mocked
And this breaks me apart

Knowing, I am a secret sinner
My mind won't forgive me
The demon claims to be a winner
Through my eyes, they always see!

I sleep on the thorns
To ease my pain
From the blistered petals
That fall as rain

The tears of joy in my eyes
A torn happy face, smiles
Hiding behind the light
Walking away for miles

Soaked my soul with lies
Oh what love is, you showed
Everything flew with time
Just my memory you owed...

His Presence...
Seema Sep 2017
Swaying chimes, gives me a sign
Someone is around, who's no longer mine
The bell chimes, gives a soothing ****
While the winds play my favorite song

I am not under possession of any ghost
Nor do I entertain any to host a toast
This is something new I've been experiencing
The winds press my skin as tho piercing

My heart glows and my mind is at calm
I am not scared in this moonlights charm
I smell a familiar, my most favorite scent
It's the one I gifted him before he went

I can feel his presence around me tonight
He's come to visit me tho out of sight
I wish he was still alive and here with me
My eyes madly searches, just a glimpse to see

Speed is what he was fond of from the start
The accident engulfed him, broke my heart
I went rushing, shattered, breaking apart
He gave me a last look before his depart

I am alone, drowned in his memory
Each moment plays in frames like summary
I know its him brushing away my tears
I really miss him, tho its been many years...

Unsealed Memories
Seema Jun 2017
Deep in her wine glass
A reflection of him, emerged
In the silent thought of the night
A teardrop, drops, creating a ripple
Drowning her thoughts
With heart break of pains
A sip or two, in between
Exploded more memories,
That once were sealed and forgotten
Now with every sip, slips down the cheek
a long night, alone with the closed,
chapters of her dark sins book...

Dear God, bless me
Bless us
Bless them
Bless all living kinds
Erase the darkness from their minds
You are merciful
You are loving
You are not a myth
You are omnipresent
A past, present and future
Your arms surrounds the nature
I may not see you
I may not feel you
I may not know you
But you never forget
You push every being until they get
On their feet and tracks
You are the peace that fills the dark cracks
You are the thought in my head
You are my friend when am sad
I love you and I know others do as well
For you are my guide
Your teachings and words I shall abide...

The Possibilities
Seema Jun 2017
I have listened to your soul while you were yearning in the cold. About anywhere, am not even close to you but for some reason, there awaits a hope. Losen yourself from the invisible chains of evil, let go of the lamen thoughts. Feel the light piercing through your heart and gather the fallen pieces. Eliminate your unworthy memory and come forth from the start. Value your rights not by comparison or fights but lead on a positive path, full of life and compassion. Hate not the truth that unfolds before you like a chapter, face it with gratitude and other's will embrace your character. Don't run after materialistic objects or someones attention. Why slump down with regrets and hurt yourself with rejection. Life is for living and if more, than a righteous giving, to those unfortunate beings around us. We are moving trees with many branches bearing beautiful flowers and leaves. These branches and flowers depict our physical being, appearance, beauty and thoughts. Likewise, as the roots reach down the toughest, rocky soil, this is our inner visible self. This tells how much we have run deep and thought of our lifetime challenges. If our roots hit a stone while growing, that doesn't mean that life is over. The roots, hence our thoughts give us the options to re-route our lives. We are the makers of who we are from inside. The aura accumulates and the actual beauty shines, outside. Let others judge, let them dig their own graves. Just focus on the possibilities, and make them happen. Try the kindness and caring theory, am sure someone, somewhere is hoping for this miracle. This is you, this can be you if only you believe and confined in yourself. Stop thinking that you maybe cursed from birth. Help others, not just humans but every living being on our beautiful tearing apart earth.

Gesture Of Kindness
Seema Aug 2017
Living in cold
Weary and old
In a thatched house
With rats and mouse
Still he felt good
For he had some food
But later, did he find
A man who was blind
This boy was very kind
And he didn't mind
To share what he had
With this sad old man
They sat together
To enjoy their little meal
Then the old man
Proposed, a kind deal
For the boy to look after
Him, till his last day
He broke into a crying laughter
Of how everyone went away
The boy was very obliged
And he agreed to abide to stay
After a few years, the old man died
Leaving the boy with a letter
Which stated, your life has got better
And soon, the kind boy
Inherited the treasure
Of the old man, named "Mr. Troy".

Shadow Grim
Seema Feb 2018
As I walked through the woods,
Carrying baskets of food,
I realised am being followed by someone,
I gasped and gazed finding no one,
Hurrying my way to the picnic spot,
Making sure I have all that I bought,
I saw! I saw the shadow, everyone talked about,
My legs began to freeze and I started to shout,
But who was there to hear my scream,
To come for my rescue from this shadow grim,
I kept running and so did the vicious shadow,
Growing its size as we reached the meadow,
It got gloomy and the shadow got helpless,
I got tired and was almost breathless,
Turning my focus and thinking for a bit,
Under a tree I saw the fire lit,
How could I be scared of my own running shadow,
Feeling miserable, I pulled myself together,
Reaching the fire lit place where all got gather,
It made sense that there is no such thing as shadow grim,
It was just my own shadow disappearing in my dream...

Ruins Of My Thoughts
Seema Oct 2017
I may shed a little tear today
As words of some seem to ****
A reminder may play everyday
Putting me on a disgusting pill

I'm out spoken on verbal and written
Yet, I am misjudged by most
Words seem to be stuffed and bitten
And comments fly in of another boast

I am not a qualified writer
Nor my writes are clear to perfect
But writing makes my dark world brighter
And that, my friend is a fact

My writes are ruins of my thoughts
Feelings of a broken heart
Shattered pieces of multiple knots
And a spilling imaginary art

I am not in competition with anyone
Poetry world is a lovely place to be
I am not in search to nail someone
But to read other poets work as I see...

The echoes, reunites shattered realms
Which was ingraved, many years back
Famous for it's soulful infrastructure
Nothing did the place ever lack

Wind brushes away eons of dirt
Rain cleanses the pillars to shine
Vines flourish with glorious flowers
This fantasy is growing in my mind...

Golden sun, beams its rays over the meadows
Where sleeps many bodies from the past
There in the corner, stands, an ancient shrine
Which once, was worshipped by this cast

On top of a pillar, there is an encryption
Blurred with dust, it's hard to understand
Standing on the bare ground, I feel the sea,
So near, as my feet feels the moist sand

I am on the opposite side of the shrine
Admiring the masterpiece of such kind
Wondering why no trace of humans around
This fantasy is growing in my mind...

Cloud Of Tears
Seema Oct 2017
I was counting the stars last night
But then the heavy clouds appeared
Hid the stars, ate up the moon,
Lost my counts, everything disappeared
Laying under the blanket of the sky
Moon peeps once in a while
As I closed my eyes to feel the cool breeze
A drop of tear fell on my cheek
Opened my eyes and I felt few more drops
But it was not mine, the clouds were crying
Seems like consumed my dark broken feelings
And poured them on me one by one, healing
Each broken memory, as I was dealing
Who else could have understood the cry of my soul
Where this heart has burned and turned into a coal
This spatter of rain, is soothing my burnt heart
If only I knew the consequences of love from the start...

Walked Away...
Seema Jun 2017
Losing an unfought battle
That seemed more like a dream
With words to belittle
And silent tears of scream

Rising again to confront
To that of anothers fate
But rumors began its hunt
And I was labelled as hate

Closed eyes to erase the scenes
That I know, doesn't exists
Yet my mind gradually spins
As I am walking through a mist

Confused and tired of life to live
I am who, people have kicked
All in all, I stood up to give
The fallen advices that I picked

How unbelievable people get
What they say, is only for a show
They spin their words and set a trap
Push you down, and hang you below

I've been there, and laughed at
Much humiliated by my own
Until I walked away and met
My true self, an unknown...

Will you cry and break this tie?
Knowing that I am lying
Will you look out for another girl?
Shining bright, rare like a pearl
I know you love me
And I love you to
But will it matter if you walked away
And never turn back to come my way
Why are you so quite? Have I upset you?
Shook abit of reality, do you have a clue?
You have made me feel special in everyway
Are you planning to leave me one day?
I hope you do not leave
I hope you always stay
In my heart, connected to my soul
A father of our baby, making our family whole
I hope every morning my eyes opens to see you
And close every night with wishes of few
I hope our love grows and glows
For you are my destiny, where my love forever flows...

Like the scent of fresh jasmine
A feeling flows within me
It's evident in my dreamy eyes
Remove your mask and see
With bright smiles, I hear giggles
A butterfly feel, that of a tingle
You probably guessing my status
Yes, I definitely am single
My straight hair, springs with curls
I am happy as before I was sad
Nature has blessed me with prosperity
I almost forgot what all I had
Love is what flows within me
Not that of any particular reason
It's rain that melts my heart
Alone in this lovely season...

but i can only stroll and creep

the trees are too tall
rivers and ocean too deep
i want to take a fall
but i can only crawl and leap

the earth is too dry

Forget Me Not
Seema Aug 2017
Here I sit, with a long face
Waiting for your urgent call
You hung up on me, last time
Don't know what's wrong

A callback message pops-in
Your phone is out of reach
Fear grips me from within
The network seems at glitch

Finally, the door bell rings
And I rush to answer it
There you were, blank faced
Not wanting to rest and sit

You paniced as you talked
One of us was surely dead
In the past weeks accident
But I claimed alive instead

None of us wanted to believe
That we parted from each other
Both of us broke into tears
And I realised, I was another

I didn't survive the wrath
In his arms, I lay dead
A change of expression hit me hard
I left him helpless and sad

I would never wait for a call
As I am leaving your side forever
My death has created a wall
Please don't forget me, ever...

Past And Present
Seema Sep 2017
In a distant,
I see...
Smoke rising in the sky
Hovering black, consuming my vision
I am trying to reason out, why?
It's coming from the near deserted prison

After a while,
I see...
The ruined prison block, lighting up
From over a cliff, I notice this scene
Black smoke pouring from above
This happenings I've already seen

Confused mind,
I think...
My dream from last night has taken a turn
Should I explore and find out?
But what if I don't return?
Will anyone search and come about?

One way,
Let's explore...
So I lead myself towards the light
Fighting with giant cobwebs on the way
Something sinister caught my sight
But that seemed far deep, further away

My inner,
Voice...
Let's not go any further from here
For your soul is not ready to endure
Close your eyes and ears, don't you fear
You will return to your world, for sure

Sudden awake,*
Present...
For I've been asleep for hours today
Seems I've been to another place of mark
May be this is a message to show me the way
Of what lays further in the dark

Spurts Of Ink
Seema Aug 2017

Staring at a page
Smeared with ink
Blank in my head
Yet, I try to think

What hope do I have?
To cope with my plight
Dark spurts of ink drops
Just soaked in my writes

I thought of using a pen
Instead of a daily quill
Might change my perspective
But then again, it's my will-

I sit to decorate my hand
With the spurted ink drops
Writing my favorite lines
In an ancient draggy font

No, I am not insane
Not yet, as you might think
I am using my brain
To tattoo with this ink

A little bit of innovation
Has led me to realise
Finding such inspiration
Before my own sunken eyes...

Closer Than Ever
Seema Oct 2017
They'll come a moment
When we'll be together
Closer than ever
Slowly but surely
One day forever
Closer than ever
Because
Neither you nor I are together
At this moment
But soon we will be
Closer than ever
Breathing the same air
Dreaming the same dreams
Closer than ever
We will be together...

Light As A Feather
Seema Oct 2017
I gather bird feathers
And strap them into thin leathers
To make hand fans
And sell them in bunch of tens

The money I earn
Goes in my little savings can
I have improved my living
And given up on life's grieving

Work hard, is what I do now
Sometimes I wonder, how
I landed, twisted on a muddy road
Drifting in all direction with my heavy load

It takes time to heal the given pains
But mine slips away slowly when it rains
Now, I am light as a feather
Swaying along with the weather...

Not Enough
Seema Nov 2017
No matter how much I do
No matter how hard I try
No matter how many nights I lay awake
No matter the struggle I face
It's still not enough
Not enough to put on a smile
Not enough to console a heart
Not enough to be loved
Not enough to be by your side
It's an incurable epidemic
The flow of my tears are evidence
The shades under my eyes do tell
That no matter how much I do
It's never enough
I have done so so much lately
Yet there is so much more to do
I just keep pushing forward
No matter what comes by
I just hope I don't BREAKDOWN!

The Draped Shroud
Seema Aug 2017
Draped and wrapped
In white cotton sheet
The decaying corpses
With one missing feet

Lifted and shifted
To the old faint morg
Lugubrious night calls
On the thick creeping fog

Hooded cultivist carry on
Their usual cults and rituals
Missing persons peak the list
No one seems spiritual

The night turns insidious
To the loitering lone beings
Amputated parts in shroud
Left to be seen...

Dearly Missed
Seema Jul 2017
Burnt to ashes
The lifeless body
Memory flashes
Of that somebody
Gone off this world
Left us behind
Answered his call
A great mankind
His love treasured
By one and all
He always assured
Success after fall
A mentor for me
He was my teacher
Knowledge a key
At times a preacher
He'd be missed
Dearly by all
His cheeks, I kissed
Before his final call
Rest in peace
My dear grandpa
Oneday I'll reach
The land so far...

I wrote this in the memory of my grandpa, who passed away in 2015. Hope his soul is at peace.

Free To Go
Seema Oct 2017
There is no Us nor We
Divided us, was she
There is no You nor I
Just my tears seem to spy
Don't you wonder why I cry?
Why these tears won't dry?
Helplessly tired whenever I try
Do you even care?
Or busy with your new pair
Life's never been fair
All I do now is just sit and stare
At the pictures we share
It's becoming too much to bear
Hovering chest pain seems to tear,
My heart out from its layer
You've been a great player
Not my prince but a slayer
This beating heart will soon slow
As I close my eyes and end the show
Don't beg at my feet then, O' No!
Life is beautiful
And,
You are free to go...

Loving Him
Seema Jan 2018
The lights are dim
And I'm with him
He cuddles me like a bear
And messes up my hair
He kisses my hand
While sitting on the sand
The warmth of the sunset
Drawing us near
Our hearts are melting, without any fear
He talks softly in my ear
That he will always be with me either far or near
Sipping the red wine
Enjoying our lovely dine
He looks me in my eyes
While he talks about lies
I admire his looks as the time flies
We kiss goodbye as the night is deep
He gives me his heart to love and keep
A tear of joy rolled to drop
He quickly kissed it so to stop
I love you that's what I said
He hugged me with all he had
As we departed with a sweet kiss
My heart aches, for him I miss...

Death Denied
Seema Nov 2017
The rotating pillars over my head
Has dropped by an inch
My eyes focuses on the path led
And all I see is an antidote in a syringe

Laying on white sheets, while time flies
Watching everything with these torn eyes
Paralyzed with no motion
Death is a denied solution

Now I close these eyes and make a wish
That time stands still
And all that is around me clashes and spills
With me as an aimed prey, destined to ****...
