I killed a soul
I broke his heart
I tried to mend it but it just fell apart

It was not sinister
or something I was longing for
yet, I shivered his fragile soul
He said I stabbed him with the tip of my sword
Like if I have never loved before

The minty chemical flavor of my soft body
fed his starving soul
He wanted it so badly
then I thought,
oh how sad is an unrequited love

He is not what I have been waiting for
I think this happened to me before
but I was the unrequited love

I wish there was a way
to mend his lonely soul
I wish
I could find a way
to prevent from shattering his soul

and here we go again
another text from you again
I will answer one more time again
breaking your heart again



Please, don't mind my words





It was a warm morning in April
The tulips were blooming
when I was running
Hail Oh rustic charm of this moonlit night!
Hail Oh Heaven in my stealthy plight!
I pen down tears no words tonight,
Heaven thou have failed to bestow thy delight.

Unseen, Unknown, Uncalled for,
Little he promised, nay neither he swore;
Oh profound gloom, embrace me no more,
Tonight you have me in your galore.

Perhaps there is no answer to my 'why',
Neither in this land, nor in the sky,
The Lord has cut my wings, I cannot fly,
In this moonlit night, She will die!

No more can I pen Oh Lord!
I am paralysed, I do not have a word,
Was this the power of the Sword?
No adieu, nay neither a word?
This poem is an archaic expression of utter grief on the part of the poet because of the betrayal of someone beloved(friend, lover, spouse, etc.). It compares the Sword to the relation he shared and the rust to the betrayal and his loneliness... The "She" referred to is the purity of the bond which the poet had with the person(s). A reference to the fairer gender has been made to highlight the the purity. The poem ends with a feeling of disturbance so that the readers can relate to and reflect upon such an incident in their own lives.

Yes,i was there...
The small red rose gave colour to her life and death...
And she...
She was beautiful, smiling in that old grey picture...Doomed to live there in eternity...
You want to know what i did?
I kneeled and lit her candle one more time...

If you were the sky
Then I'd be the sea
And when you shined bright
It would reflect in me.
When you're at rest
Then I am steady.
If you wanna get rough
I'm always ready.
Past closing at the bars
If you show me the stars
I'll open right up
And cast them out far.
And on the darkest night
If you won't shine a light.
Then I'm silent alongside you
Until you feel right.
We'll meet at the horizon
Where lovers will stare
And wonder with passion
Why they can't meet there.
And you'll share me a kiss
As bright as two suns.
When they meet in the middle
I'll know the days done.
And I can tell that's your way of saying to me.
Goodnight my love.
If you were the sky and I were the sea.
