punctured egos don't last long
they fade away like the mist
of ignorance

punctured wounds hurt but they heal
like broken hearts
over time

punctured love is an unbearable pain
till we find
love again

i dare to dream
i dare to defy
i dare to speak
i dare to cry

i dare to live
i dare to die
i dare to face
my inner lies

i dare to fear
i dare to care
Life - after all
is a game of truth or dare

secret laughter
secret reason to be

when i'm with you
our hands hold a secret
that our smiles reveal

in the purple skies of my dreams
our secrets are the kites that fly

Losses make me cry

They rend my heart apart
and make me want to die

But losses also make me learn
and grow and yearn

for the the wins that are surely to come
i’ll just have to wait for some more time.

caught in a trap
i look for an escape

it stifles me
it binds me
it does not let me speak

i'll break free though
i know its weaknesses

the trap is love
and the key to open it

is love itself

The camera captures
your smile, your laughter, your posture

but it can't catch what I catch
when i'm with you
the warmth in your smile
the joy in your laughter and the comfort
that you give me when you stand with me
