If there was a better half of me
It could only be you and no one else
Don’t you know I am my best
Only when you’re next to me?

Growing

I didn't think twice
for which I paid the price
Aiming for new heights
I now select my fights

Another Love Story

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"

Stuck in Winter

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

My Truth

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

You bet

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

Knight

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

Say what?!

Ignore his ****
See how quick
he finds another chick
for a better lick
******* *****
thinks he’s slick

Call me a *****
‘coz I’m about to switch
Better, call me a witch
‘coz I’m about to bewitch
Fin, Harry or Mitch
No matter which
I have this itch
I gotta ditch

And here I still am

No matter how many times
the voice in my head comes up
with reasons to leave
my heart whispers
“Stay. Don’t give up.”

Commitment

We’re told we don’t fit
What do they know
but a lil bit?
From where we sit
You and I know it
We’re in it
‘til the last spit
