Don'T Cry When I'M Gone

Can’t anybody here see that I’m dying?
The mere sight of my weary soul!
You’re all absorbed in senseless passion 
Blinded by your own desires
No one sees my anger 
No one sees my grief
Don’t cry when I’m gone.

 Can’t anybody see me standing here?
Drowning in my own tears
Death is at my doorstep, do you even care?
Years have passed
No one has noticed
Locked away from your care
Don’t cry when I’m gone.

Can’t anybody see my sadness?
Neglected by love
The time has come for me to go, will you bid me good bye?
I’m finally dying
Leaving this world
But still no one notices
Don’t cry when I’m gone

Call It Hurt, the Love I Know

Should I say more if you cannot see?
Then color me love possessed if it may be
How do you spell love?
L.O.V.E?
Are you sure? 

Roses do they give on Valentines
What is it they want me to see?
The red to remind me of my bloody bruises
How does love feel?
Perhaps the way the thorns feel in my hands

Then again should you think I’m crazy?
By deception sculptured my love be defined
How do you spell bliss?
B.L.I.S.S? 
Are you sure?

Once I open my secret to you
Come let me teach you the meaning of love
Beads of agony, tears of pain
Humiliation combined
Call it hurt, the love I know!

To My Mum

I’m smashing windows and breaking glass
I miss you and hate you for leaving me
You should have fought death and won
How could you just bow down to its thirst?
Who am I supposed to call mom?
Come back
Come back now,
Come back before my rage engulfs me to ashes.
I have been trying to call you every day
Then I remember you are gone
Do you know the pain that you have left me in?
If you left because I never said I love you I’m sorry
I said I’m sorry so please come back
How am I supposed to heal?
I miss you
I miss you so much
I know you don’t miss me too
I dream of you dying every night, your memories I have
I wake up happy that it was a dream
But it’s not a dream because you are gone.
I’m mad at you for going and leaving me like this
Are you happy that I’m in pain?
So won’t you come back and tell me it’s a dream
That you never died:
that I never saw that coffin going down.
Please mom, please tell me you are not dead
They are lying to me are they not?
Tell me you never left, please
I feel like I’m the one who is dying
The hurt is tearing my heart
Will I wake up tomorrow?
If I will, let me wake up from this nightmare.
Let me see you by myside so that I tell you how much I love you

It Hurts To Watch Him Hurt ,Inpired By Jerrine

Like a shadow without a master 
Wisps without air, I have become his ghost.
In his dreams have I been
A cloud of smoke in his eyes.
I see the tear in his heart, the brilliant scars
I fall on his cheeks with his pain
I hug him day and night but he does not know
Just but a soul I can only wander
Still it hurts to watch him hurt.

Ancient voices that cannot be aired
Guardian without wings, I have become his angel
I see when they have made him suffer
Mine are the eyes of his redemption.
In his death have I been, but I have resurrected him
I give him life when he has fallen
I am the keeper of his soul but he does not know
Just like Fravardin I can only wander
Still it hurts to watch him hurt.

I stand before him, he does not see
I whisper to him, he does not hear
I hold him, he does not feel it
I am his loving protector, he does not know
It hurts to watch him hurt.

FRAVARDIN (???????): Persian name derived from the word fravashi, meaning "guardian spirit."

Blazing Love

Red sky, grey stars
Hand in hand
Burning sulphur, heated flames
Kisses of death
Love purified, trust tested
The price to pay
Ashes of life, sparks of dreams
Her EROS his APHRODITE
Forgotten lovers, ignored curses
Love of flames; blazing love!

Crime Scene

Black blood on the walls even refuses to bear witness
No story can ever tell of the life lost
The air conceals the screams of the murdered
Now lying lifeless on the ground
Cold like ice, like a statue carved from deception
Ruthless hands
Merciless souls
It’s my life
My life is a Crime scene: Do Not Enter

Scarred portraits even refuse to show a picture
No song can even harmonize the life that wished to be
The earth conceals the struggle and fear
No longer are soul and body combined
Quiet like graves, like the desolate tombs
Hurting words
Piercing stares
It’s my life
My life is a Crime scene: Do Not Enter

We Are Fading

For the lies that wait to catch up with our sins
Days past will no longer let us relive
Heartaches, sorrow, fear within.

For graves have become our homes
Banished have we come to know!
Death, misery, hiding have we

For we know not the turns ahead
Tears no longer turn to pearls
Wonder, mystery, tombs await

See what we cannot see
Blood tears on our cheeks
They are here
We can longer hide
Run to the hills
We can longer survive

Curses
Demons
Basilisk
Sirens
Do not behold Medusa
Our time is up
No one told us beautiful people are dangerous!

So Daddy Can I Cry

Does she?
Does she know?
Does she know that the lady in the next bed passed?
Are you sure she hears my voice?
Remember?
Remember me?
Does she know I am her daughter? 
The walls of the hospital surround her
Her eyes are hardly open
She uses a mask to breathe now
So daddy, can I cry?

She lies
She lies there
She lies there day and night on her back
Are you sure she knows we’re here?
How?
How much?
How much pain do you think she feels?
The voice inside her cries to the world
Her feet are cold like ice
I was told to prepare for the worst you see
So daddy, can I cry?
We did
We did fight
Did she tell you she still loves me?
Can you tell me what her heart says?
I see
I see you
Do you know I see how much you hurt?
Your words and courage can never hide your pain
Your eyes tell it all
I feel like I’m losing the both of you
So daddy, can I cry?

I Try

I try hard not to hear but they talk so loud.
I try not to see but they linger around
Their voices echo in my head
I hear them every day
They are here 
They are here to haunt me!

If you see the scars in my heart you will be mortified
Yes they did this to me so that you turn in your grave
They will not stop until my hands are as cold as ice
Until the breath from my lips departs
Until my heart is ripped apart.

I try not to cry but the tears keep falling down
I have tried to bear the pain but its killing me now
They whisper in mind everyday
I can hear them say
Take
Take your last breath

If you see the grief in my eyes you would want revenge
They would know that they sent me to my grave
They will not stop until the four winds of the earth engulf me
Until my soul departs and I am no-more
Until my blood cries out to the heavens.

They Showed Me Their Broken Hearts

They showed me their broken hearts
They showed me their wounds
Hurt burnt their souls
It tore apart their dreams
Sacrifices they did became meaningless
Their bond to you has vanished.

You showed me your reflection
You showed me the devil inside you
Your curses ripped their veins
It caged their memories forever
The good you once did has faded
Their trust in you has become marred

Who have you become?
Heaven and hell do not want you!
It’s never going to be me or you
Nor will it be you and them
You are now on your own.
