A lovely Sunday morning
lying on the bed  
with your hand around my waist
the feeling of your skin on mine
sending shivers down my spine

basking in the morning sunlight  
gazing into each others eyes
recalling every single memory  
not a word spoken  
yet nothing remained unsaid

your lips on the nape of my neck
felt like hot burning coal  
my body was on fire
melting in your arms
making me forget everything except you

making love on a lazy Sunday morning
in our own little bubble  
wrapped in sheets, bodies intertwined
smoking cigarettes
not a care about the world

oh, how I wish this morning shouldn't end
for you'll leave when you're done
and you'll come as you please
but I'll be here, writhing on this bed
craving for your touch, your kiss, your caress

I fell in love in with a boy
whose eyes were
as blue as the sky
as deep as the ocean
hiding stories behind them
happy, sad, mysterious
oh, how I long to hear them

I fell in love with a boy
whose thoughts were vast as the universe
yet he never spoke
all alone in the corner
with a cigarette between his lips

I fell in love with a boy
who liked his coffee black
dark as the colour of his jeans
bitter as the words he always spoke

I fell in love with a boy
whose lips were as pink
as a rose
oh, how I longed to kiss them

I fell in love with a boy
who would never fall in love
as he was deemed heartless
but I knew
he was just scared to fall in love.

I made a deal with the devil
I let him love me
love me so hard that I could never forget about him
I let him see through me
flaws, vulnerability, not a single thing unseen,
I let him kiss me with his fiery lips
I let him touch me with his scarred hands

I said, I'll never fall for him,
he laughed and said
Oh dear, fall for me you will
after all I am the devil
it's a deal I said
his eyes as blue as the ocean
yet, so red with flames waiting to engulf me
captivated me in his devilish charm
so deep were they, hiding secrets behind them
I knew all along that he will break my heart,
but who doesn't love a challenge,

the devil doesn't have a heart they say
but oh, when our chests collided
I could positively feel something beating inside his chest
then did I realise,
that I'm the devil too,
both of us are similar,
afraid to fall in love,
afraid to let someone in,
afraid to let our tiny hearts break into a thousand pieces,
I love you, I said
he laughed and left,

yet
I let him love me
I let him break me into pieces
and I would do this a thousand times over
for the devil was so beautiful

your venom laced voice

made me want to shut my ears

every word you spoke

sharp as a dagger; ripped through my heart

for you maybe that was a way to vent your anger

to me, that was the worst thing you could ever do

your anger more precious to you

my tears didn’t make you any more softer

I’ve never come across someone as unforgiving

oh, why is your heart so cold and cruel?

maybe one day, when you would lose me,

would be the day you’ll understand my true worth

till then I’ll be your punching bag

you’ll be my boxing gloves
