Ecstasy of Emotion

Here we are, the time is now,
Looking in your eyes flashes all the memories somehow.
Its just you and me alone in the crowd,
In our own world with no intruders allowed.

We should leave, walk away,
Coz my words have nothing more to say.
Holding your hand the time holds its motion,
Like a timeless orb flowing with an ecstasy of emotion.

It is getting harder to desert myself from you,
My broken and lifeless world consists of nothing new.
Yet I hope to give it all in your hand,
Fetch a diamond for you from my world of barren land.

I cannot walk away and leave you there,
But I don't belong with you or anywhere.

Little To Understand - Photographer's Guilt

I'm at the peak watching the unknown,
The rain today pouring at a different tone.
My insides wishing for a chance to defend,
I wait at the edge for all of it to hit the end.
 
I hear a boy crying over his parents pieces,
An old lady asking why to Jesus.
With brutal weapons in everyone's hand,
There's very little to understand.
 
Those screams, they haunt me every night,
Bloody eyes staring down asking why I didnt fight?
Like any mortal I feared my own existence,
I was a coward watching them die from a distance.
 
What I regret now wish I could change it then,
Rather than being guilty and jotting it with a pen.

The Girl In the Dark

As sunset takes its toll and let the moon shine again,
I see thunder trying to brighten up the sky in vain.
And everyone creeps back into their beds,
Bracing themselves for what that lies ahead.
So do I like others drift to sleep taking my time,
Hoping to see again the bright sunshine.
But then I forget between me and the new day,
Is sheer darkness with no escape way.
And then works my mind bringing her alive,
Slowly walking her way at my bedroom door she arrives.
I turn my back towards her thinking that would save me,
I swear not to turn back no matter what it be.
But then her cynical aura turns me back again,
I stare at her trying to scream in vain.
My imagination's work -the girl in the dark,
Closing in on me like the great white shark.
Water dripping from her hairs and hands outstretched,
She crawls towards me revealing her body like something sketched.
I close my eyes tight hoping that she would never reach me,
In fear I faint off into dreams finding myself in middle of a sea.
The waves hit hard yet I turn out to be stronger and I survive,
Finally after the hardships bright sunlight of the morning arrives.
All through the day the girl in the dark stays in my head,
Waiting for a chance when she can finally reach my bed....

Where I Belong

So many voices keep telling me what to do,
As I strive to see the sky bright blue.
I sometimes wonder did god ever work so hard,
Or was it for him easy as gardening a backyard? 
I've fought my fight till now fair and wild, 
I've endured fights of old to a child.
I dunno where I might end up or where I belong,
Just hopes that it would turn up beautiful like this song.

I Can Live On

You walked away without ever looking behind,
You held his hand stepping over my heart blind.
Looking behind you till you were out of sight,
It still beats for you no matter how much I fight.
 
But I will move and prove you I can live on,
Since that day a new me was born.
I'll smile forever with the pain in my heart,
Not for you but for myself to start.
 
Why did you ever plan those dreams with me,
When you knew in reality they would never be.
Looking back I only see how crazy I was,
I've always loved you without a reason or cause.
 
Now nothing can change since you made your choice,
I'm going away so you can have new life to rejoice.

You Were Gone

Did you ever think of me when you left me behind?
If only you could see the tears just one more time.
I just cant replace that beautiful face,
I've realised you are a loss I cant replace.
 
Now its all so dark and lonely,
Coz in my heart you were the only.
I've been living in memories so long,
Since the day you were gone.
 
Now you have him with all that you wanted in me,
Your heart lied smoewhere I didnt see.
For you I'll give my life, my soul, my every bit,
But I dont want to coz your heart's not in it.
 
But now things have changed by your pain,
I've realised my cries were all in vain.
You left me behind,
For my own road to find.
 
I've accepted it girl,
You are no longer my world.
I wont be there to kill your lonely nights,
Nor care, nor joy, neither our fights.
 
You were all that I needed,
But in that I only got bleeded.
If you ever miss me when I'm gone,
Still without me you've gotta carry on.

Do You Have a Halo

Sometimes I wonder, do you have a halo now?

Dressed in white, drifting in clouds are you now?


Do you still feel the pain like when you were sick?

Do you still grow old as the time ticks?


Can you look down and see? I've out grown your shoes.

Do you still guide me leaving behind hidden clues?


Do you hear your daughter's prayers for you?

And mom's silent tears? She misses you too.


Can you come back? Give away that halo?

Life was so easy when I just had to follow.


Am I mean? Wishing something so bad?

I'm sorry, I just miss you dad.......

Beyond This Dream

It all started with my eyes closed,
In a land of dreams where nothing is forced.
Something within me wanted to go beyond,
Breaking away this painful bond.
 
I've set forth now with nothing to stop,
This rentless journey till I reach the top.
I've seen that beauty defy reality,
What lies beyond this dream and brutality?
 
I'm exhausted standing at vanity,
The view ahead at verge of insanity.
I still have to keep moving on,
Till my bones fades with dust and is gone......

Everything I'Ll Do

I'm not lying, yeah I was scared,
To face the world alone I never dared.
I'm not a saint, neither an angel,
for I dreaded an emptiness I cant tell.
 
Like a soothing breeze you came along,
Showing me where I truely belong.
I let myself bleed to know that I'm alive,
To live life this way, I had to strive.
You transformed me from my ugly insides,
Into a beauty no longer criticized.
I'll be that saint or an angel for you,
To show you my love everything i'll do.
 
I never walked, for I would fall,
Scared no one would hear my call.
I ran away, was never bold,
I always wanted something to hold.
 
I know I can never be there for you the way you are for me,
But as long as I breathe, happiness is what u'll always see.

22

Been running all my life for desire,
fought endless fights and countless fires.
Have frozen myself in my own tears,
seen hope through my darkest fears.
I've been lost with no sense of direction,
like a falling rain with an unknown destination.
Felt myself numb by the pain and sorrow,
it has left me at times ugly and hollow.
I've felt the warmth of a bright new morning,
giving away rentless memories that got me drowning.
But the tale is only half way now,
coz i'll survive another 22 somehow....
