You know what the biggest tragedy is?
When something turns into hell from bliss

And when the Moon whispers to the stars every night,
You will be standing all alone –shivering with fright

Why you even bother to let someone in?
Do you not see it's not heaven –it's a sin

Your days are darker and red is turning into blue,
You have your moments, but see there are just a few

You had a world within you and you're losing it,
You only lie down to cry with the door closed -all the candles lit

How slowly you're sacrificing yourself to the unknown
People think you're crazy, but that's just your zone

Why won't you speak to the sky tonight?
Why won't you call out the dead to kiss goodnight?

Bad things happen, but good things happen too,
Cruel to me -but always good for you

Nobody knows what happens every night,
A girl slit her wrists -when others are not in sight

I'll forever be hiding my scars,
You only hurt me -right from the start

What does it take to just not be sad?
I'm not asking for happiness -please now, don't be mad

Sometimes I wonder if I'm asking for too much?
When I'm asking for peace -there's no thing as such?

Red roses
And your broken smile
Don't go
Please stay here for a while

We'll talk
About how the world will end
The dark theories
And the forgotten thread

The broken glass
And the moon lighting our faces
Feel the moment
Feel it before we leave our traces

In a hundred years
And days I can't count
These silk robes will smell like us
But we won't be here -we won't be found

Who you are to me
Is not what you have always been,
All the good things
I had yet not seen,

The light you have within you
And that one little broken piece,
Everything's changing now
The seed of love –growing into a tree,

When I see you, you're always looking at me
But you never say, what do you see?
The mountains or the dark cave?
The bird in a cage, you can't set free?

I will keep you safe -keep you here with me
You can rest here forever, sit in ease,
Our tale is now immortal
And you will see -so are we

Open your eyes now and look above
Look at the sky, look at the stars my love

So many promises we can make each day
So many stories but I'ld rather not say

It's crazy that I'm writing this song for you
For someone who exists only in thoughts and muse

But we can plan to stay up all night
Listen to jazz and pretend everything's alright

I'll sing you the lullabies of ecstasy and desire
We'll sit in a dark room and light some fire

You can tell me about the times you've felt like a hero
We'll whistle the countdown from 1O1 to zero

Have you ever felt like
You're a part of a puzzle
But someone comes snatching you
Not even letting you muffle?
      
Have you spent the darkest night
When it's too cold
To breathe, to seek
But you don't have anyone to hold?
     
Have you ever gone through the time
When you're all that you've got
Convincing yourself you'll be fine
Sobbing -because you know it's not

Have you ever felt 'lonely'
Because it's not just about being alone
It destroys all of you
Makes you wipe the tears on your own

Have you ever needed someone
Just anyone to be there?
To help you rise up?
Just someone who would actually care?

The water touched my feet as I closed my eyes. All the flashbacks -all those memories haunting me to this day. How many years have passed? How many seconds have I died? How many breaths have I smothered?
I remember being fearless once. Look at how fearful I have become. I used to be just another girl -hoping that the best would find its way to me.
But today, I'm a different person -a bizarre package of perplexed emotions, assembling the broken pieces of my fragile heart which I had left at different places -in different things -within different people. Today, I am empty. I am hopelessly empty. Who am I? Who am I? Who am I?
