Nausher Banaji Mar 2011
crawling down tunnels of destiny, looking for others under your skin, for all the people you are yet to be, and all the people you have been, washing away white memories with dark water, you peel off your skins and enter -Nausher
Nausher Banaji Mar 2011
that we knew the night would pass,
that the love we lived could never last,
reflections blurred by shadows past,
that silhouettes would still roam free
beauty for a day, or a day of eternity-
Nausher
Nausher Banaji Mar 2011
The night is done
Gone with the wind of the first sun
Dreams on ice, the river crossed twice
I want to be alone with me
A transparent layer in history-Nausher
Nausher Banaji Mar 2011
you are sitting naked on shifting sand,
a dream and a memory in each hand,
you mirror a mirage moving alone,
you call out but it is gone,
the road that brought you here
is dragging you back
the light you thought was near
is fading to black-Nausher
Nausher Banaji Mar 2011
I tore open my skin
so you could enter my veins,
Gave you my eyes
so you could see your own chains,
I was standing at the window looking out for the train,
Then i looked inside and it started to rain,
Through tunnels and doors
you ached you'd be free,
The doors lead to walls
and the labyrinth leads to me- Nausher
Nausher Banaji Mar 2011
I was too young to understand
But too old to forget
Naked on shifting sand
Hanging on by a thread
Walking through the door
Eyes clawed by dread
Your face is a mirror
Of that stranger in your bed-
Nausher
Nausher Banaji Mar 2011
i heard the sigh in your lies
i let you enter my veins,
Gave you my eyes
So you could see your own chains,
I've been standing by the window
Looking out for the train,
Then i looked inside
And it started to rain,
Through tunnels through doors
You ached you'd be free,
The doors lead to walls
And the labyrinth leads to me- Nausher
