If You
If you don't know me
Just ask me
My lips which used to be sealed
Will tell you all the stories
Buried deep in my heart
Only if you are me
There was this weapon ,a shovel
They brought to dig everything out
I just want another heart to be brought
But how do you think
My heart can bear the pain?
It started to scream in silent
So none of them could hear it
I don't know who close my both ears
Even I couldn't hear it
Or did my hands did that?
If you flip the pages of me
You will find out
I'm weird, I'm abnormal
I don't open up to anyone
Unless you read the whole book
Because the trails of me hiding there
In each and every chapter
You will reach out the missing me
The real me in there
That's me .
If you ask me from which planet I
Come from
Of course, I'm not someone from here
there is another world
I built for myself which is waiting for
My footsteps to be planted there
Neither a castle nor an empire
But a home for my fractured soul
If you can, hold my hand
No hand willing to take mine's
The hand that have been offered
I'm too scared to grab them
They will lead me to their path which is not mine
Should I act like my eyes being tied?
I'm walking all alone till now
Only my shadow behind me
Sometimes I can't even find it
Because there is no sun
Wish that there is another shadow beside mine's
If you want to follow me
Don't let go off my hand forever
Because I know that
My body is going to covered up with scars
It has been bleeding in my heart
When it starts, I don't know either
If you can fix me up
Fix every part of me
I tried to
Nothing left
Breathless heart
Soulless body remain here
The more shields I place around me
The more stronger they crash them out
If you can, wipe away the tears
That rolling down my cheeks
Don't cry, they say
Tired of crying behind the doors
Swollen face red eyes
No more tears
Everything dried out
If you can, wrap your arms around me
I will hide well quietly
They say all you need is you and yourslef
But when I long for a hug
I couldn't hug myself
My arms are too short to wrap the whole me
See, I still need you
I can't go on by myself
If you can,
Be the mirror
So I can remember me
