Yours
Sushmita Jul 2017
I was yours but you were never mine
In the midst of those dark clouds
I was your sunshine.

The essence of your smile
Wiped all my tears.
The voice of your confidence
Vanished all my fears.

But all of it was just for a while
Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

Embraced your tears
Craved for your smile
Loved your anger
And all those pretty lies.

But all of it was just for a while
Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

The warmth of your breath across my face
The shiver of your touch filled all the space
The syncing of your lips across mine
The whisper of your voice reverberates in my mind.

But all of it was just for a while
Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

When you were lost
I showed you the directions
But it was too late to realize
I was not your destination.

I chased your footsteps
As you walked away
Killing all my dreams ;on the way
Breaking all my hopes; I had to say
Numbing all my songs; making the lyrics float
In those sleepless night
For you which I wrote.

And now I see you
Fall over her lap
Tenderly sleeping
As she has filled the gap.
But don't worry about me
I'm fine.

Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

Just like the last time..
Sushmita Jul 2017
How can I fall again?
Will you catch me
Or leave me thrashed on the ground?
Helpless, wounded in adversity.
JUST LIKE THE LAST TIME.

How can I Trust again?
Will you keep the promises
Or break them into thousand pieces?
Marking my entire soul with bruises.
JUST LIKE THE LAST TIME.

How can I smile again?
Will you treasure my happiness
Or turn them into mournful memories ?
Of regret, despair and emptiness
JUST LIKE THE LAST TIME.

How can I cry again?
Will you hold me close
Or leave me alone with my shadow of numbness?
That nobody knows.
JUST LIKE THE LAST TIME.

How can I dream again?
Will u accomplish them
Or turn them into nightmares?
With curses threats and blames.
JUST LIKE THE LAST TIME.

How can I love again?
Will you love me back
Or leave me with my scars?
Lost and exhausted.
JUST LIKE THE LAST TIME.

Be the master of yourself.
Sushmita Jul 2017
She mastered her mind,
but couldn't tame her thoughts.
She mastered her heart,
But couldn't control her feeling.
She mastered her dreams,
But couldn't cage her passion.
She mastered herself,
But couldn't find any meaning.

What's the use of living in such confinement?

— The End —
