Stay the moon
Cloudless and glowing
In her naked splendour
With her silver-white light
Cutting shadows
With sudden edges
Sharp enough to shave a man's face
Let her alien ambience
And constant strangeness
Reshape perception

And how stars sparkle
Heavenly diamonds on velvet night
So very many to see
And more beyond numbers
That our eyes will never see
And every moving star
Holds it's clutch of planets
An uncountable number
Of unheard stories

We were the same between the opposite
But you never notice.
Even wht I feel inside,
It was like I ws never there.

Time stops whenever we pass each other.
That's what I want you to feel.
The feeling of a little sister
Is what you let me feel.

I'm getting curious about you-
Since the day we got close.
We talked and chatted
'Til day becomes night.

You said you liked me,
But in the end, it was a joke.
'"I knew it," was my reply.
But hoping that was real.

It would stay a mystery- unless someone moves.
Thought of becoming us in one.
Could it be? Is still my fantasy?
Since were the same between the opposite.

Nobody knows the real me.
As I am, very silent, very moody.
I lived in a far away land called "Reality."
But realized it's hard to fit in,
Especially when you're still stuck in fantasy.

Good grades, happy family,
Met best friends, lived peacefully.
Until my life's been looked closely,
You won't know what it's like to be me.

I still strive hard to reach an unknown dream.
A dream even I, myself, never knew.
Well, my life won't stop there, it seem.
I'll just follow the path my dear author drew.

Just stay calm and act normal.
Always reminding myself when I'm talking to you.
Just like when I chat.
Just talk like I normally do.

The night and our same old tree
remember?
You and I, we danced to this beat
in December
we got lost in white trees
we called it being free

till we lost the stars
In the same old streets
You faded in to the dark
And you took away my heart
You left me here
you left me to fall apart
you left me with my fears
You left me with my tears

Now you're sorry
but I ain't sorry
now you're crying
now you're trying
friend, please
enjoy watching
our tree house burning

Dusty dreams clutter my mind
And my past litters the present,
Crippling the slender future.
I walk in the shadow of rumours
And uncomfortable truths
Follow me doggedly
But I refuse to lie
Or hide who or what I am.
I ask no forgiveness for how I've lived
Nor do I seek salvation
Because the truth is, you see
I've had a ball!
And if I'm ******
I'm ****** if I care

You know he would do anything for you
Anything. You just name it.
He would've given you anything you've asked.
He would've taken you anywhere that you wished.
You know why?
Well. Dont tell me that you dont know.
Silly you.

But for everything he has sacrificed for you,
Do you think he will ask you to payback?
Or he will expect you to do the same?

No, he doesn't request for anything in return.
But all you did was lie to him.
And you betrayed him.
Was that the way you reciprocate?

Now he is sitting and wondering
Who's unfair to him
Is that you?
Or life is unfair?
Tell him.
