Ghosts of her past
Haunting her.
Day and night
She lives in fear.
Fearing the return of the demons
For, they are the ones
Who know her weakness.
In distress she screams
But in vain,
No one to listen
No one to care.
Hanging by a fragile thread
On the verge of getting lost
Inside her very head.
Nights she spends
Immersed in tears,
Painful screams
Only she can hear.
"Stop!" she yells
Inside herself,
They pause for a moment
But start again.
She longs to be free,
She's drenched in the rain.
Cries of agony
No loss of pain.

Mother nature,
Creator of beauty.
Destructive mortals
Beasts of the city.
An equal share
Of good and bad,
Only a past
That used to be.
A present dilemma
A crux for all,
Piling the burden
On sinless souls.
Creatures of the wild
Never the harmful brute,
Unlike the beastly mortals
Who aim aimlessly
And shoot.
Daunting innocent fauna
Depriving them of flora.
That's not all
Us barbarians do,
Pulling apart kin
And slaying them too,
For the avarice
Of paper and its power.
Embracing beauty
Is what we miss,
Falling into a dark abyss.
Why can't we see?
The future will hold
None of this.
None of this to give us power,
Carcasses over which we'll hover.
Nothing left to destroy,
No more dark joy.
Vandals like us
We want to live,
Living in peace
Is what we desire.
Little do we notice
The world is our empire,
And us its unjust rulers.
Amongst ourselves
We spark two fights,
One for humanity
And one for pride.
Of bloodshed and peace
A puzzling paradox,
Never seeming to cease.
Tranquility
Or no harmony?
This is not equality.
I foresee a future dry,
As we utter
Lie after lie,
Making the world
Increasingly bitter.
Since truth alone triumphs
In the end we all succumb,
To pain and desperate cries.
The darkness within the mortals
Reflecting in her eyes.

Love*- a new word it was,
Unaware of the misery it draws.
It seemed in love we were
My toes in excitement
Would curl.
"You're my princess" said he
"Apart we will never be."
I chose heart over head
Not knowing the darkness
To which I was led.
Perfection was what I called us
Pushing away was not an option.
The more I fell
The more I felt
Like you were falling too.
Little did I know the misery
That would lead to.
It appeared as a smooth road
But then a pit unseen.
It was an emotion overload
Trying hard not to scream.
I fell in deep
But over the pit you leaped.
Slyly smiling as you saw me struggle
With my feelings you had juggled.
Oh that pit was deep
But I finally touched the ground.
A few broken bones
And a torn, tattered heart.
I struggled to find my way out
Finally feeling light,
Winning my own fight.
Only to see
That you had really fallen for me,
After pushing me so deep in
And my heart almost breaking.
I laughed the way you did,
Smiled at you and said
*"You need me,
But I don't need you."

Facing the horizon
She walks barefoot
On the golden sand
Into the blue.
A clear sky reflecting
Upon the glass surface.
Using pain
To suppress pain,
She wades into the shards.
Piercing through her
Agony takes over,
Yet she feels alive.
Icy waters of the ocean
She's neck deep in,
She can't feel the ground anymore.
Her head just above the water
She takes one final breath,
And heads toward heaven or hell.
A moment of panic,
As she breathes in, but
They are now one.
Her pain washed away
Sorrow drowned.
One soul, born from
*A poisoned mind
Of the girl who felt alive
Breathing her last breath.
She lived awaiting death.

A stranger she was
Was it fate or
Was it destiny
That made us meet?
Although never face to face
I see in her amazing grace.
Swiftly she moves
To the rhythm of life.
People trying to bring her down
But she won't bow
To the undeserving.
She is strong
She is beautiful.
Ready to fight the world,
In she will come
Like a whirl.
Assurance is what she needs
And assurance I will give.
"Love, don't be sorry"
Said I to her,
And poured my heart out
Through these words.
I hope she realizes
The strength within,
The power to face the world
And not beat herself up.
Cruelty never dies
It's omnipresent.
But she can conquer the galaxies
If she wants.
I believe in her with all my heart,
Nothing comes above
I will forever be with her
*She is my love
She is my soul sister.

Pushing away the clouding negativity
Because they belong to
The "minority".
He loves his partner
And he loves him back
Family and friends taken aback.
Suddenly being in love is a crime
Heart's content is criticised.
They're against them holding hands
Branding them names
And a disgusted glance.
Emotions they are unable to curb,
Contemplating if they should leave
And bring everyone peace.
By and by the days drag on,
Hiding inside, left alone
Alone but one
One love
One heart,
Beating together
Creating art.
They show the world
They need not provide
An apology for loving.
Amidst cruelty and hate
They shan't give up.
Take pride in loving each other
*Heart's content is all that matters.

Sprinkled in the sky
Like sugar on the pie,
They twinkle right at me
What a sight to see.
In awe and enchantment
I stand amidst the stars
I am now part of the insanity.
A rush of amusement
A sudden indulgence
Upon me it heaves.
Shooting through the galaxies,
A time warp, so it seems.
No time to weep
Like the darker days
I feel upon me a golden ray.
A touch divine
I've crossed the line.
Turbulence ensues
What is this I'm going through?
A world of surprise
Seen through my eyes
Amazement within.
I've caught a glimpse
That will recur,
The land I call *Isther.
