Emotional Imbalance

For Christ sake, shut up! And let me be Why must you always come up At times like this? What have I done to you To deserve this torture As a prize from you? This wasn’t my plan for a better future The rest I seek to have You won’t let find The peace I desire to know You won’t let me behold You are tearing my life into shreds Making my world uncomfortable And killing faster than I’d ever have imagined The sleepless nights Seem to you not enough The heart aches and fights Seem to you a thing of fun You’ve made me cry Tears of wasted years And now on my skin they dry Tears of bitterness And now hatred for my mistakes Cuz I know not what lies a stake I curse the day you sprang up in me At the mere touch of your master ‘love’. All these while in me you silently lived As quiet and beautifully as a dove. Never did you bother me this way You painted my world with colors of the rainbow And now here we are today All dwelling in love’s shadow What is left of my skeleton That you’ve come to take. No way! You can’t have it How can you desire your own cake? Disappear at once! For a second chance you do not deserve.
