Burnt lungs
and
crippled thoughts--
they haunt every
moment of your
hours
and minutes
and seconds,
putting you
on the brink
of insanity.

Just give me a reason to love you



                                                     *...and I will.

I can accept the possibility
That there will never be hope for us
Or the possibility
That we were never called an "us"
Because I know that you look at me
*And for me that is enough.

He gave her his heart


                    *just for her to break.

My heart aches everytime I see you.
What is this?

He hides it and she hides it,
Both with the mentality
That one didn't love the other
As much as they did for each other.

It is difficult to guard the heart
The heart that wants everything
The heart that wants what it can't have
And the heart stupid enough
To want what hurts it the most.

Why is it that everytime,
Everyday I look at you,
Pain finds its way into my heart
And each time, it breaks me apart.

I wish I could take care of your heart,

                                    

                                               *...but I know I couldn't.

Always have....

                          ....always will?

"And the sun kissed the moon goodbye."

You don't know how much it all aches
You don't know how much it tears me.
There's this severity in my heart
That I wish you could see

But you couldn't.

How hard would it be
To conceal,
And preserve
Such strong feelings?

-05/21/2015

A year and three months ago
Came the blade that cut
The link of two hearts,
And the link of two souls

We found our way back
We fought our way back
To each other
And rejoiced in our reuniting

But today marks our second parting
The parting that would hurt twice or thrice
Since the link of our hearts came severed
But the link of our souls didn't

And we would remain conscious of each other,
Talking to each other
And we would remember
Everything that we once had.

How further will soon be away?
These sleepless nights keep me thinking
How much will be the price to pay?
Just to regain what is missing

I can remember all those nights
When we traveled to other worlds
Dwelling upon the wondrous sights
Inches of emotions unfurled

I miss you so much, it pains me
To think how we are so apart
Much unlike how we used to be,
Together from the very start

It hurts how I can’t do anything
Or at least try to be with you
I really can’t for the time being
But indeed, my feelings are true

I miss you
I really do
And now I lay here thinking,
If you feel the same way too.

I guess you're feeling curious
As if it isn't obvious
Now I give you a chance to guess
What we need to confess

I'm guessing you already know who wrote this
It isn't something you'll miss
But if you don't know,
Please think harder, I'm not a foe

Firstly, what we want from you isn't just trust
It is friendship that won't easily rust
For if you knew the truth better,
We'll all need this together

Colors are essential to the eyes
From light, you see the truth that lies
Though in a person's heart,
If you'll look closely, you'll see a color that defines their art

There has been a problem in this generation
Something people try to fix through action
An impossible mission we can't get through
Or could this be really true?

Something's coming really soon
That's why we should reflect like the moon
For even in the dark,
Through our source, will we spark

Now I don't know how you'll react
Once you know everything about the fact
Will you know the worth of all this?
Or will you just let it miss?

Maybe you'll give an effort, maybe not
But I know you will, coz you sought
So if your curiosity led you to something,
Approach me and tell me what you're thinking

Now I'm gonna ask you something:
Will you accept the challenge even though you know nothing?
Your inquisitiveness amazes me, I give you that
But remember, curiosity killed the cat.

People move on easily
Maybe that's why
I remain lonely

Because there are some people
I can never replace
Yet everyday
I see them forget me

Somewhere

Inside of me

There is a part

That wants to stop trying

And give up

But

She gives her heart to him
and only him, while he
gives his to a multiple.

The thought processes in our minds
Often about how much we know ourselves
How much familiarity we have
But that isn't really the point
**Because one can never know himself too well.

I am but a questioning soul
Who seeks to find the excellence
That reeks from the confines
Of such brilliant minds.

but i did try, didn't i?
i did try to forget sadness
to be happy all along
to erase every memory of pain
and every single hate
i struggled my way out
out of the abyss
after finally breaking to pieces
but nobody was there
i couldn't feel anyone's presence
just a bunch of scrutinizing stares
far from the world where i was
so i stood up
put on a smile
but no
it was all too perfect
all too good to be true
all pretentious
more bullets would come
and break me once more
since everything was a facade
i easily shattered
and the mask fell down

For what good is it to trample something lovely?
Not so even waiting for it to wither down
Killing the joy in it that was once so lively
Forcing it in lies, obliteration, to drown.

For what good is it to contaminate, poison?
With the obloquy that your scornful lips emit
And your eyes that look with shame, devoid of reason.

I believe that a word paints a thousand pictures.
     making you feel,
     if not many things,
     at least something

Believe that a word paints a thousand pictures.
     it is more than it seems
     when said
     more powerful than it looks like
     when written

A word paints a thousand pictures.
     helping you feel,
     envision,
     creating something
     this world has never seen

                                      .....or felt.

words that bleed from my pen
feel like a curse to me
the thoughts that haunt me
every second

of every minute

of every hour

of every day...

For everything has its own start
That change has its own beginning
It is when everyone took part,
And unity's no longer missing

Indeed nothing is impossible
Almost anything can happen
Even in our minds so fallible,
Our thoughts with problems so laden

Such inevitability
Confided with misconceptions
But change is an ability
All are provided with options

Now to all those who are asking,
Yes, change is linked with everything
Today can be the beginning-
The beginning of everything.

If

Tick-tock, the time is near
So I tell this, please do not fear
Tick-tock, He's coming soon
One starry night with the bright round moon

Our faults, we needed to confess
Obey every single thing he says
The loathing in our hearts to stop
With the blood of violence, in its last drop

The Light is there, the Light is near.
Would you sacrifice the things you hold dear,
Just to grasp that Hope from afar
And to forget the past that brought that scar?

"To be rescued, or to keep on drowning?"
A question that bothers every human being
So wait on, and be watchful
The time will come for those who are faithful...

Tick-tock, the time is near
So I tell this, please do not fear
The time will come when all are done,
'Tis the arrival of the One.
