Holdin' on to old times
as a cover for our new crimes,
our lofty worthiness shines,
everything is just fine.
Well, really we're just best sellers,
white collar storytellers,
but we've forgotten how to,
just breathe!

-

There is no princess in a castle,
but a dragon queen who
needs no rescuing;
who chooses to
breathe in solitude and
who has no reason to fight,
until you begin a war
in her kingdom
and waste
her precious
time!

-

You're looking too far,
I'm right here.
Searching for a distant star
out of this atmosphere.
You overlook me,
I'm right here!
Why can't you see,
I'm right there?
I for sure won't
wag my arms
to catch your attention,
'Cause I want to be seen,
not looked at!

-

Walking in the solitude
all tired and exhausted,
needed a momentary death maybe!
Love came to revive and
waked me up one more time,
Like a bird again set for flight,
After ages of captivation!

-

Scars stay,
even if you're healed!
You're afraid of getting those wounds again.
Because you know what your heart has once faced.
Once chased;
And yet got hurt,
And yet got broken.
Every piece of it telling you another story,
Every piece craving for love!
The love that was never meant for em!

-

Pain doesn't just go away.
People do!
And when they leave, they take a piece of you.
And when you're gone, there ain't any coming back.
Feels like my heart is under attack!

I keep getting these flashbacks,
Wishing you were still mine.

But you got sidetracked.
And just like that, pain doesn't just go away.
People do!

-

The moon shone
on the ones who picked
their own swords,
not on the ones who
whined for sympathy!

Her Queendom wasn't meant for mundane,
who couldn't take a cut from angst.
But it was for the brave, the real and the stars!

-

Toxic!

You fill me with venom
with your toxic ways,
seeping through my views
all of these days...
Each pulse is your poison
that moves deep to my core,
Rotting my insides
until I can take no more...!

-

On a voyage to self discovery,
I asked the endless sea,
How do I forgive myself
for dying early?
How do I tell when the things that mattered,
Things I should have said,
Sit at home in my heart,
never knowing the outside
of my mouth?
What is life if I'm not living?
Is it life if I'm not living?
If its too late then, shouldn't it be death?
The next time I met the sea, I smiled.
I had already known the inside of a grave,
For I had buried myself there,
Countless times...!

-

People have different pre sleep routine.
Some go to bed with music in their ear.
While a few others with stories to hear.
Some get goodnight kiss before they sleep.
And a few others with brain full of beep.
Some sleep after settling their life's billow.
And a few others with dry lips and wet pillow.
