Is It Too Much To Ask
Jessa Sep 2015
Is it too much to ask
To be loved
Is it so hard
To show a little love
Is it too much to ask
To be accepted
Is it so difficult
To learn about existence
Is it too much to ask
To be honest
Or maybe it's just too easy
To live in denial

I seek no attention
Just a little affection
I'm not looking for fame
Just a little care to be tamed
Nor I want to be treated like a queen
Just equality to be seen

Now tell me
Is it too much to ask?

I Deserve To Be Me
Jessa Sep 2015
You may give me a frown
But I never looked down
Still I'm walking in this town
Like a princess wearing a crown

I am not that thin
And it's not a sin
I want to show my skin
I don't care if you're being mean

I'm proud with my curve
And I'm not scared to swerve
I'll do it with joyful verve
And I deserved to be loved

Mad Man's World
Jessa Sep 2015
He walked along the street
He stumbled and fell on his feet
He then swallowed his own spit
When he realized he's going into the pit

He once owned a gallery
And he praised his mounted glory
But he sold his soul to gain victory
Little did he knew that his hands were slippery

Somehow
Everything was burning
And he was crying
Then he was begging
But he was dying
He was grieving
Over his own feeling

He used to be a gold digger
But the king had turned into a beggar
He just wanted to pull the trigger
But a wise man said, " It's on you then go figure! "

Reluctantly he let go of his throne
Oh!!! There's no crown to call his own
He sat there crying and start to mourn
The mad man faced his fate to die alone

Killer Song
Jessa Sep 2015
I nurtured your words
With love and care
I pampered your lines
With the beat of my heart
Until it forms a beautiful rhythm
A song about you and me

But somehow the melody hurts me
And the lyrics is killing me slow
When I realized I'm just a fool
Praising the art of lie
Deceived by the sweetest chant

I Read Between The Line
Jessa Sep 2015
Amazed
By your beautiful words
Hypnotized
By your rhyme
A perfect sublime
But
You can't penetrate my heart
For I've shielded
With my conscience
You see
You're an open book
And I could read you
Between the line

Cold Case
Jessa Sep 2015
I'm laying naked
On the floor
Clinging to survive
With tears rolling down
From my eyes
No voice for me
To scream
No strength for me
To move
And so
I let the coldness
Ravishing my skin
And sorrow
Consuming my soul
I'm dying
Being stabbed in the heart
With lies
With humiliation
By the unknown presence
Leaving me here
And bleed to death

The Sweetest Melancholy
Jessa Sep 2015
You write me
A beautiful lullaby
Soothing to my ears
What a beautiful melody
Exquisite symphony
Drift me away
To a world of fantasy
But deep inside
I'm bleeding badly
By the lyrics of yours
For your words are sharp
And like a blade
Slashing my heart repeatedly
I close my eyes
With tears rolling down
Drifting into a deep sleep
And so I die
Killed by a wordsmith
In his sweetest melancholy

Sweet Escape
Jessa Sep 2015
I'm trying to escape
For my sight has been *****
Watching the show of life
Proving I'm just another strife
And so I close my eyes
Looking for a paradise
Because deep inside my chaos mind
There's a tranquility I could find

A Sinner Plea
Jessa Sep 2015
Being a sinner and I'm guilty
But should I be condemned for eternity?
Just because I stray too far from reality
It doesn't mean I seek no clarity
I don't want any sympathy
Nor I ask for charity
Just don't judge my sanity
Because within the chaos I still own my tranquility

Cycle of Shit
Jessa Sep 2015
Sitting here and I start to frown
Carrying a thought of dying with a knife
Then I realize I'm one of the clowns
Playing my part in this circus of life

I'm juggling from good to bad
Resembling an angel and demon
There are times to be good and bad
****! It's just hard to get even

Walking along the thread
Trying to find the balance
I wish I fall down and dead
No more quest for my existence

Drowning with lust and sin
Sinking into the darkest pit
Somehow I claim back the light to reign
What for? Just to repeat the cycle of ****?!

Emptiness
Jessa Sep 2015
Waking up
With cloudy sky
Above my head
I look in the mirror
And I hate
The reflection inside
Innocence
Has been torn apart
By my own hand
Purity
Has been stained
With evil touch

Darkness
That's what I see
Numb
It's how I feel
Empty
With no purpose
I dig and dig
Looking for the answer
Questioning
Where's the inner child
Who am I exactly?
But then I realize
I'm just an empty vessel
Wandering around
For my soul
Has been long gone
I'm trapped
In the hourglass
And soon to be dissolved
In the sand of time

-Jess
