LOVE IS A SCAM
Just because
You like the crease of her smile
You adore the softness of her voice
Revere the curves of her body
Worship the colour of her eyes
It doesn't mean you love her

May be the dream maker
Crafts her in your dreams
Or your heart pounds the alarm
When she touches your arm
You shouldn't mistake it for a charm
Yet all you want is to stroke her ***

Okay get this right, absolutely right
His wallet might be bright
He does all things right
He makes you feel light
But don't be on a flight
All you want is selfish comfort

Love, is a scam
We all get in because we want the glam
Yet when it gets gloomy we boom
To the nearest victim
Whose fate we are ready to doom

THE UNCROWNED HERO
I know of a boy
Who knew of pain
Endured empty promises
Whose dreams were charred
Who always hurt at heart
Who bled from the blades
Who tried to breathe
Who was struggling

I know of a boy
Who faded
But smiled even then
Who couldnt collect his broken pieces
Who couldnt stich his own wounds
Who gave and gave even his own soul
Whose pillow was stained with blood tears
Whose reflection is no more
Who is the boy beneath the earth
The Hero no one knew about
