There's a fire in my heart,
that keeps me sane.
It saves me from my demons
When they come to haunt me
And I need a savior
To take away the pain.
.
And I fear the moonlight
It reminds me of her smile
So, I hide behind the curtains
Staring at empty walls
As I try to forget her eyes
And the way she lied.
.
My glass remains empty
I need another bottle of wine
The smoke from my cigarette
Never goes out of my sight
People call me crazy now
For loving her madly.
.
But all my love is gone now
There's nothing beneath this skin
And I'm paying for my sins
Cause I gave her all I had
But she threw it all away
Like I was some ugly flower
In her garden, full of roses
.
Maybe there's no one for me
Maybe I'm too crazy
Maybe I'm too good
Maybe I'm too honest
Maybe I'm too insecure
Or just maybe I'm doomed.

Like a shadow on the ground
I chased and followed you
Till the end
I was so close
So oblivious
Blinded by love
I couldn't see
What you did to me
With your sweet smile
And truthful lies
.
You took away my pain
And reminded me
Of all the things
I could never be
All the things
I can never have
And so,
I cherished each moment
Every kiss and each goodbye
.
And now
That you have found
Another sunshine
I wonder how long
It will take
Till the darkness arrives again
So you can love me again
And tell me another lie
To Fool me again.

We are gathered here in this sacred theatre to share our lust of life and poetry.. Here you can be anyone
A poet, A misfit, A lonesome warrior..
When I was young I was told.
Take your meal stupid child..
Don't you wanna grow up??
Don't you want to be big and powerful..
.
.
As a child we were told how beautiful and lovely this world is..
And you can be anything..
Through the depths of innocence
And our fragile eyes, we saw this world as a radiant, beautiful place..
And there were signs of total chaos that we choose to ignore
And buried our feelings like it didn't matter..
.
.
.
Don't grow up.. Don't ever grow up..
Be a child .. Fillied with hope ..be persistent..Wear a majestic smile that can ease pain in strangers eyes..
Be fearless ..
Just don't grow up, you know
It's the end my friend
Be a child forever..
Because the children are insane
No pride, no respect, no false promises...
Don't trade your vales to fit in..
Be crazy man..
Be unique
.
.Of all the things that you can be
Just don't ever be lonely..
We live and we die
And sometimes death not ends it..
I have seen the dead walking
Trapped in a clueless maze
No idea where to go
Or where they came from
.
..
Did you know freedom is a lie?
Are you free?
Are you free of your insecurities
Free form your responsibilities
Are you a slave of money ?
Can you live without your presious degree?
Do you really love you job?
Are you free from your own depressing thoughts???
So freedom is a lie..
And it only comes at a price..
.
.
We all wandering in this wilderness that we call life..
No matter how hard we try
We can't make evil into good
We can't turn the metal into gold
If we seek the absolute truth
Yess life can be so much painful
Like a rotting piece of fruit which can't be saved
But in the mist of hunger, violence and betrayal
.
.
There are moments, you know
Those small magical moments..
Which can revive the deceased
In those moments the flower of our happiness blooms till eternity
And those moments are worth the wait
In those tiny moments
Everything comes to life
Everything shines bright
Everything makes sense for a while
So live for those moments
And shine like a star my friend
Shine like a star.

When sun sets down
And the darkness of night
Swallows the earth
We do the same thing
Again and again
Totally unaware, unhinged
Resting and pretending.
We dance to the beats
Without  music and words
In a steady pattern
Nothing to fear?
Lost in Paradise
But not aware of it.
.
So,
Choose the day
And then choose your way
Don't be shy or pretentious
One day, you shall be glorious
If you choose to fight
Then do it every night
And remember, life is pain
So, don't let it go in vain
Be free
Be free
"As long as you can be"

We are here, you and I
This wicked phase of life
You are long gone
But I'm still stuck in that time
That we had together
Where you were my savior
And I was your sanity
.
But now  
Things are different
Things are uncertain
Those promises we made
Were always meant to be broken
Your smile still haunts
Your voice still echoes through
But there's no one to listen now
.
I am not that crazy ****** anymore
I am supposed to be only happy
So, I don't feel anymore
Got a big job and a beautiful wife
Who only knows my name
But she doesn't know who I am
So I hope you remember
My broken smile
My broken heart

I will rise again
Though I'm buried
In the the depths of hell
Alone and rejected
Lonley and isolated
My heart is broken
And mind is heavy
I may have lost
Buy I'm not yet defeated
.
But I will rise again
I'm wandering these streets
Keeping my head down
My cerise eyes can't stare
And I want to run
Far away from here
To live a soulful life
.
I will rise again
Like I always do
There's a fire in my heart
That won't burn out
My storm is still wild
No one can calm it down
I will fail again
And I will rise again
I will rise again

Big shadow looming
Over the head
Mean women waiting
And wanting the gold
Drunk men looking
For love and hate
In strangers eyes
And the children are insane
Throwing stones at peddlers
.
Encapsulated by her greed
She waits for her man
And The precious gifts
That she loves
Diamond and gold
And the beautiful dress
Her man is a fool
Cause he adores her
.
She flaunts her beautiful face
And hides her ugly heart
Walking down the street
She gives those clues
To desperate and lonely men
Her haunting smile still
Captures every broken heart
In a sweet surrender of will
She let go of her shame
.
Her man loves her though
And he has no clue
Works hard and wise
For every penny that she wastes
He lives alone far away
From her fake love, so
He feels nothing at times
Bliss is a forgotten friend
He's waiting for the end
.
In the end justice will be done
Just before the morning sun
She can run and she can hide
And throw away all her pride
She will pay for her sin
Just like they always have been
