Theater Of lifeTheater Of Life
We met as strangers stranded in the park,
Lonely as the night -
Wandering in wonder, will the train surface?
1:35am she thought to provide me warmth
Open arms, I drowned beneath her chest.
We sang, imitating the birds in the far away forest,
The wind sang along in uniformity, blended we thought!
Utopia was now newly found home,...

SELF-INFLICTED WOUNDLike a storm trapped in her chest
she moved in circles
footsteps restless
heart pounding louder than thought.
She had lived inside a lie
vowed to love through anything
clung to promises already crumbling
made peace with pain to feel something.
When dawn rose, it lit the truth
the smiles were masks
the kisses rehearsed, and yet, she stayed
not for love, but for the hope...

Misty clouded heartMisty clouds fill my eyes,
After you stabbed my heart,
With a blade forged in hate.
Pain oozes out like blood,
But neither red nor caked –
Yet it outlives all thought.

How Is It Possible?I want to see him as someone who did me wrong... in order to let him go. I want to no longer love him at all and just see his true colours as brightly as they show. Put up a wall, draw a line in the sand. Let go of his hand. And see him...

Sentimental MoodEllington is sitting and tinkling the black and white keys
Coltrane standing and blowing like an autumn breeze
Mood__
Nostalgic, misty-eyed, and feelings of tenderness
Her sweet perfume lingers, her velvety voice echoes, and her sweet caress I cherish
Sentimental__
Relishing, missing, and longing for a distant but not forgotten yesterday
Today, I sit alone. Alone in a sentimental...

Today, of all days, I find myself dividing my tears into sections. With each moment, each tear, and each snuffle I make, the paper tissues crumble, showing signs of the mishaps in life that surely cannot be mended. Yesterday was your birthday, and today is my revelation about life—my life.
Lately, it seems I’ve...

BestfriendI want this loneliness to end,
I need a bestfriend,
I'm tired,
I'm lost,
Where do I run to
When I need to cry?
You know, the water droplets that come out of eyes
When your heart is heavy like a
Bag full of wet cotton,
That ache worse than a grazed knee,
Where do I run to?
Who do I run to?
I'm lost,
In an...

No One Understands
How in a twinkle of an eye,
Your life so make a lot of sense.
Now, the world heave a nasty sigh...
What an atmosphere with such tense!
Insane to ever imagine...
The plain sky once sunny turn loosed,
How wealth to death has no bargain!
Life would have got hade's gut seduced.
The sunny sky soon faded out,
While love just become...

YOU TOLD MEYou told me you could never leave
You told me you would never say goodbye
You told me you never wanted to be free
But you told me a lie—just another goodbye
Your words were empty, your promises all broken
You had me believing, but now I just cry
Your ‘I love yous’ were just lies you told”
Trying to forget but...

To the moon and backSo far from you yet I reach out like you were right here. Nothing shined brighter than you not even the sun.
And as bright as you are I still lost you, yet sparks brought me back to you but when I returned I was too late.
You shined so bright you became the moon to...

I Can't Stop Loving YouI cannot stop loving you
And I do not know why
It seems that every other day
You break my heart and I cry
All that I have ever wanted
Is to love you and only you
Now it seems that won't happen
Tell me what am I supposed to do
My heart longs for...

GhostedThey say it’ll pass
it’ll get better the longer it lasts
They say what’s done is done
but i don’t feel like i’ve won
You took my heart
tore it, broke it, till it fell apart
Now you play the victim
the hole you created, i sit in
I don’t want to become
the monster i’ve come from
Obsessed with yourself, with...

HomesickThey say home is where the heart is
But you have flown across an ocean
You're something I'm blessed to miss
We will make it through all of the commotion
But when I come home, I'm never letting you go
When you're back in my arms, I'll be home again I know
A year from home is a lot, my dear
I'm...

My HeartThere's a hole in my chest
My heart's flown away
My eyes tire from crying and crave rest
The hole burns all day
My world's gone sideways, now at a slant
I am missing my heart
But it stays with you while I can't
The pain leaves a flavor sour and tart
The feeling of a missing piece of me
Burns less than that...
