I used to wish
For the sky to open
To let me see
Who was there
Making fun of me
To ask why
Was I so unlucky?
But the sky
Didn’t answer
It kept moving
So I did too..

As I walked away from you
My heart was breaking into pieces
Knowing that I was hurting you
For you turned out to be just another one of my vices


As I walked away
On my mind, a slide of your face
Creasing in pain (or disdain?)

It was child’s play
Nodding to your lies with a straight face
I had to pull the chain

So today
You left me no choice but to grace
you with the truth you thought inane

And as I walked away
I crossed your name off the master race
And out of my brain

She likes playing with words
Builds beautiful sentences
He likes playing with dolls
Breaks them into pieces
It won't work, it won't work
People smirk
Another love story
Out of the ordinary
She didn't care
Emotions laid bare
To him she whispered
"Give me your word
Promise to love me
Before you destroy me"

gone are those summer days
when blood rushed like wine
our skin turned brown
'coz the sun never went down
but now it feels like
we're stuck in winter
didn't even know who
changed the picture
the sky turned grey
and the cold has crept in

"You are beautiful", says the mirror.
My mind sneers, "Here's another liar."

I don’t want to live with regrets
They’ll bury me before I’m dead
But sure, I’ll take some secrets
Where I’ll be finally laid to rest

My knight had no armour
nor did he come on a horse
he knocked on my door
bare chest and in shorts
