Testimony of a Ghostly Soul

I feel like a ghost walking alone 
on a long lonely road of a town 
which never existed,except in my mind 
which had no soul or a creature of any kind 
i looked and screamed,i cried till it rained
my search is still incomplete , another life in vain
i smiled at the sky with resentment in my eyes
anger boiling out "PAIN" i whispered not shout 
and than guess what , i felt so sound 
and once again to be erupted, yet again if it drought 

THAN I opened my eyes and realized 
there was still pain the smashing sound 
of the hear that was broken in the ribcage 
the body of a corpse that was awake 
because it choosed life when there was no bait 
the ghost in me was feeling right 
walking in a town without any light 
which never existed except in the mind 
wishing on day sky will show some sign 
that day with no pain it will be awake 
IWITH ANOTHER LIFE, AN ETERNITY ,without any  WAIT

"the Journey and the Truth"

The ache of belonging to the heart of love 
the little child ran around in despair 
looking at every face,figuring out the eyes 
the mind still cant understand how to find 
level of acceptence,balance on the scale 
good and bad just cant cancel all 
so , on the journey of discovery he lost alot 
childhood,adolence and than youth 
and when finally he realised 
what was lacking all the time 
a moment passed and then came a sound 
fell down with the weight of his finding 
the world which is so wonderful outside 
hearts and souls wear a veil all the time 
they comes out of the shelter, the perfect land 
with the plan to live on this plain 
and all the moments he just wasted on nothing 
he looked for what which was never there 
All his life the shallowness looked for depth 
which was here and yet was not there 
so with a sorrow speneded the rest of his life 
on the grief of understanding such a lie

Me Life and Time

The heartache and the spirit turned sour
    pain ate away what was left of the soul
words of the loved ones, facts of the day
    reasons which dont makes sense,life lets run away

changed the face of time, darkness adopted me 
    silence became my mother ,the mind tragedy
and stupid how much i am screamed the reflection
    smiled and looked away, I the perfect being

Speak said the other half,tell me high and lows
    i need to understand ,how u turned so cold
shivered and then felt the crack,smashing sound inside
    how true is the thought i dont want this life 

Yesterday when the sun went down I prayed alot 
    today with the moonlight nothing moved around
AND i am alive ,sad yet safe and sound
    there is no answer for it , dont have a ground

I feel the quicksand has taken me inside 
    cant sleep , cant breathe and still no sacrifice
no one knows the sadness neither me nor you
    lets see when the madness becomes my PARADISE

Her Life's Story

She cried and creid to let her go 
        she has some dreams, a path to follow
she know what she wants, her reason of life 
        but they thought she have no sight , she is blind
she knows how to fight but her heart wasn't bold 
        she was angry ,sour, but she still wasn't cold
so she surrendered , trapped herself inside
        the walls she build herself and she hide
where there was no one, just loneliness and thoughts
        she cut herself out from the outer world
still people thought of her , talked of her whereabouts
       still there was no relief , still so many mouths
THAN ..... seconds turned to minutes,hours,days so on 
        years passed and it was time to move on 
she didn't lived at all and death came to her door 
        all her walls collapsed,visible to all 
The lifeless fragile body layed faraway stood the soul
       watched all the happening,film on a role 
WITH NEITHER A BEGGINING NOR AN END 
        still she lived her life to meet the death......
