Walls

Image
The walls around me are still standing tall Concrete and cement, never to face a fall They guard the self within, lonely & scared Try and get past them, only a few have dared I keep adding the walls to protect the soul As the flesh is far gone with the fate's toll The little light in my inner sanctum flickers Winds are escaping as the chandelier shivers Stop the wind & bind it in these four walls Bound soul, the wind and the light crawls They crawl the palace walls to see sunrise Pull them inside, lock them in and palaryze "Outside's bad, inside's good" I screamed Locked in every freedom I ever dreamed Selfish and hopeless, at the same time My solitude is my virtue and my worst crime I keep building the walls taller and taller While begging someone to break this cellar I'm trapped in the safety net of my own self Hoping someone breaks my walls of hell Princess in the tall tower built by her own Dragon she trained herself with a dark frown Oh, dear prin...

Resting still?

Image
Oh night, are your tired eyes resting still? Or are you leaning over the window sill? Waiting for someone to nudge you deep Wanting to fall over into an endless sleep Dreading for comfort that left you again Trying to escape past few centuries' pain Oh night, are your tired eyes resting still? Or do you remember all the ones you kill? Blood on your body giving you weird calm Deciding next target for the shivering palm Robbing someone's dreams for the night Running away carrying their flickering light Oh night, are your tired eyes resting still? Or they nominating and writing last will? Hoping the final rest to engulf any time Struggling to swing down very last dime Walking the night to find the final "rest" Perhaps for last time leaving your nest

Fit in

Image
  Flashy lights and smoke encircling What a great life, oh so enchanting Cups overflowing with liquor of riches Clicking bottles, screaming bitches I walked with them and fake laughed Dragged my first puff and I coughed Settling for the cheapest beverage I listened how my life's just average The constant, nagging need to fit in Has already broken me from within Everything's fun and games on crack Until my inner demons scream back I avoid the entrapments to avoid me My vulnerability is not for world to see I'll drink fancy liquors slow and dull Pretending my glass is always full

"He was never yours"

Image
Days run into nights and I lay here Clothed body with my naked soul Still watching your surprised stare Stuck in our memories, what a fool Writing poetry every other night Pouring my heart on blank sheets Searing words, sharp and bright Drawing a broken heart's beats My girls now tired of delusional stories Reading a new poetic mess each day But I can't stop writing our glories About charm and, your mannered way Running out of new words now Yet staining papers, spilling ink Ending teary eyes everyday, how? Asking myself if you ever think Feeling childish and futile emotions They warned me, "Don't you fall!" But I ignored all their red cautions Now I stay awake, waiting for a call "You deserve better," she reinforced Screaming I said, "But he is the one" Lover's delusions left her concerned How can I convey, I love him a tonne? I beg the moon and all the shiny stars Bring back the night he was but mine Skies reply, "Dear, he was never y...

Lovers' Game

Image
  Summer nights, winds weird and quiet  Should've known our time just wasn't right Just couldn't see you leaving peacefully  Wish I could've let you go on more gracefully Scream yes or say you don't feel the same Don't want to play this cruel lovers' game You can walk away just because I'm a mess But forgive my impatience with your calmness Promise I'll play and follow your every rule I'll play the one who needs to act the fool Of course, I'll wait here for you forevermore  And I'll never dare to shut my heart's door Hearing your footsteps I'll again let you in This is a lovers' game, I'll always let you win Some rules might break as I mend broken fate It's okay if you can't love me, just never hate Written on 10/03/2024

Blood of Innocence

Image
  Our song started playing on the speaker As I laid there naked in bed of a stranger Your words playing in mind with the music "You're only made for casual flings, chick" I took you literally, bent my mind quickly Now in a hostile bed, looking half sparkly Mended my wings broken by your wind Now flying high in my sky, paying no heed But when "Perfect" played as I moaned I realized, I ain't this, what you'd groaned Your words brought me to a stranger's room Dewy lights, losing myself, oh, perpetual doom Panting on his shoulder, I wiped your memory I cried out loud as you've made me temporary It wasn't my nature to just casually hook up I was simple enough to care when I stayed up You turned me from shiny glass to rough sands Blood of my innocence still fresh on your hands

Dancing in the Dark

Image
  I am dancing alone in the middle of the room Invisible to your eyes, growing out of bloom All the spotlight's on me, darkness all around Invisible much? My feet moving on cold ground I keep dancing all night only for you like a doll For your perpetual ignorant bliss, I took a toll I scream and cry and dance for your attention You keep gazing away, questioning my intention I keep choosing you but you always choose them Attraction and power play; Love is but a game! I have always been a spare, it feels like ages now trapped forever in your ballroom, I ask myself how? 'Coz I keep dancing with hope, even in ignorance I keep on forgiving; questioning my own tolerance Now my feet bleed, hands drop and eyes weep my head spins like a wheel and I am falling deep I hope you at least remember in memory flashes my unconditional dancing here, as I fly in ashes?
