Pursuit of Happiness

I have walked a long distance
In pursuit of happiness I guess
I encountered resistance, while driving down memory lane
Until I ran out of gas

I have blindfolds on my eyes
To keep you out of my sight
But I still see you in my dreams at night
Perhaps you are where my future lies

I wish to sign a truce with my feelings
To stop feeling this other pretty girls
And start filling you with love spells
Because you are my one true love
But you don’t think I am man enough

You captured my mind and locked it inside your world
That is why I mind less about how the truth will unfold
You paint my happiness vividly like a renowned painter
My lips are longing for yours, more than a drunkard is longing for alcohol

My dear pot of gold
Wealth is when I have you by my side
Without you all my dreams are sold out
The hairs on my skin stand happily
Just from thinking about you
How I miss your view, from a certain angle
How I miss the simultaneous beats of our hearts
With chests tightly pressed against each other,
Syncing into every movement we make

Maybe it’s because I’m in pursuit of happiness

The Woman In Black

THE WOMAN IN BLACK

The lady in black is my worst nightmare
She comes to me in daylight when I am not aware
She has an affair with everyman
But yet she comes to my life and leaves with great despair

She loves me
And I am afraid I will never love her back
She visits me often when I least expect it
I have great hate for her
But I don’t know how to express it

When I’m enjoying my sleep
She wakes me up to reality just to see me weep
She pushes me in a pool of tears just to see me sink
And rapes my mind so that I don’t think

Her name is sorrow
And she promised that she will see me tomorrow 
She never breaks her promises
She lives by her words 
I have tried hiding in many places
She keeps finding me and defying me 
A chance of trying to escape her miseries
Someone please help me, I can’t take it no more

Naked Truth

My eyes are glued to the naked truth 
Fresh from the shower her body looking smooth 
I only want to lay my hands on her tender breasts
Her nipples are protruding,partially hard like a dried raisin
My feelings are escalating and rising
As i think of spending my whole life with the naked truth

Her curves are appetising
With goosebumps emerging from that heavenly body
God created something so Godly

I want to spend my whole life
With the truth
My confessions are enough proof
That i do not want skeletons
In my closet
I only want to lie with the truth in my casket

The comfort i get from hearing the truth is erotic
My mind is on that voluptuous body which seems so exotic
When lies strip and tease me
I think of the vow i made to you
That i will walk side by side with you
I will admire you until the world is through

Your body is glistering with honesty
Your eyes are electrifying me your majesty
The pleasure of kissing you
Is much more than the pleasure of sleeping with lies
A million times

The whole truth is that the truth competes me
It sets me free

I love hearing the truth

Black Rose

Black rose,black rose
Go on and paint your petals with your favorite colors

Black rose,black rose
Your pollen is appealing to the tongue
enough to draw out the queen bee out of the hive

Black rose,black rose
your sweetened nectar is an assassin to the taste buds
Your presence is an atmosphere to the lost clouds

Black rose,black rose
Pierce the earth with your roots
as they go deep down beneath the ground and beyond galaxies
Let your persona bloom
as it gives birth to new kind of species

Black rose,black rose
Let your scent build empires inside a king's nose
stand tall and reach out for the sunbeams
Reflect the rays and paint a monochromatic rainbow on the face of the earth

Black rose,black rose
You are artistic even your imaginations are realistic

Black rose,black rose
Save yourself from the mysteries of the world
Trust yourself and your faith shall be bold
Let all the flowers in the garden of Eden hail you
As they shout
Black Rose,black rose,black rose!

Black rose black,rose
March in confidence with a colorful aura
as you are followed by a sweet scent of aroma

Black Rose,black rose

Therapist

I met a vocalist
Who can sing along to the beat of my heart
Or maybe
She is a therapist
Because she can heal my feelings when they suffer  a deep cut
She told me that i can't save everybody
I can only play my part,and when love burns out i can slowly relight the spark

Her words are like medicine
If not music to my ears,or a shield to my fears
I felt like i was the reason why Eve had to bite the apple
Why Kane had to kill Abel
She diagnosed me with an illness called "Self blame"
And told me that self doubt is only a stain
She prescribed an antidote for me called "let go of the past" and "find someone to lean on"
Its been  a few minutes since i took it and i can feel it terminating the symptoms of self blame syndrome
I can feel it neutralising the poison i swallowed
And leading me away from the anonymous voices i followed

My heart was brittle
But she built a cage around it
Made from steel bars of hope
She quenches my thirst for euphoria
And makes me stand against all kinds of phobia

My ears are throbbing for her therapeutic voice
Which gives me pleasurable seclusion
When my mind drowns in confusion, her thoughts avail themselves just to give me direction

I Want You

I want you to see me break down in tears,i want you to see me face my fears.
I want you to see the fragile heart in my stone hard personality.
I want you to see that strength in my weakness.
I want you.


But im afraid,afraid of opening up,
Because when i do im going to need your presence very often
And im afraid that's not gonna happen

But i want you,
I want you to laugh at those hilarious jokes i make
I want you to criticise those reckless choices i take
I want you see normality in my total madness.


But yet im afraid, afraid that i might disappoint you,afraid that you might take me for who im not.
Just like how u might hope for rain when you see clouds forming.
But i want you,i want you from this lifetime to the next
I want you to see the better in me,not the best

I want you to inject me with a great deal of faith,i want you to unlock me from this cage,i want you to feel only my presence in the atmosphere.
But um afraid.im at most fear,im afraid you will love me for i don't know how to love
I'm afraid love has never loved me back

I want you but i am afraid of intruding your world

How I Wish

How i wish Satan had not defied God' rule
And Eve was not tricked by the snake

How i wish the sun was cool
And the world was free from earthquakes

How i wish people were sentimental 
And they respected their feelings

How i wish the world wasn't continental
And free from the racial killings

How i wish there weren't many religions
And we stuck to same believes

How i wish love wasn't so complicated
And we stayed loyal to that one person we dated

How i wish people weren't so judgemental

How i wish there were no distinctive directions
And we would go anywhere our wishes took us

How i wish there were no differences between us
And we all settled for the same things

How i wish pain and suffer were locked in a cage
As our hearts would devour every last bit of them

How i wish money wasn't valued so much
And love grew on trees not far from reach

How i wish everyone lived according to their dreams
And they had the courage of praying for their sins

How i wish we all found light in our failures
And all our problems started to hail us

How i wish we were citizens of one country
How i wish my wishes would come true

Love

Love has a color,love is crystal clear


Love lies in the eyes,love has a scent
Love smells like paradise,love can leave you paralyzed.
Love is what gives us butterflies
Love has quite a unique taste,love tastes like nothing on earth.
Love roars more than a thunderstorm,but with a smooth sound.
Love is pleasure to the mind and pain to the heart.


Love has a color, but it knows no color
love is crystal clear
