Almost

You’re almost as bright as the sun
But the sun is brighter,
You’re almost as sweet as a cupid
But a cupid is sweeter.
You’re almost as good as an angel
But an angel is better,
You would almost last for long
But wouldn’t stay forever,
You almost got my love
But my heart knows better.

Far From Normal

I’m agonizing between smiles,
Still here but found across miles.
In the middle of laughter I’m crying,
In the middle of songs I’m mourning.
In the middle of the day I’m darkening,
In the light of tomorrow I’m fading.
In the way of survival I’m falling,
In the middle of life I’m dying!

Falling For You

1...2...3...4
Its been just 4 days
since i saw you,
But it feels like
a year or two.
You did absolutely nothing
but still i'm hoping,
We've never had a thing
but still my heart is aching.
I close my eyes
and you play tricks in my head
Thoughts of you
never seems to end.
And I wonder
could this be true?
Am I immensely
Crazily,
Unbelievably
Falling for you?

In love again

I fell in love
All over again,
I got over all
The hurt and pain,
I moved on
No more waiting in Vain.

And Now
Laughter comes easy,
Happiness flows within me.
Joy in my heart,
My smiles, winning over all the hurt.
All i see,
Are new days ahead of me.

I fell in love
All over again,
I got over all

Haunted

My own Shadow
Gave me a scare,
My own thoughts
Left me bare.
All my wrongs
Made me feel guilty,
My own deeds
Left me empty.

All my feelings
Became senseless,
All my emotions
Left me defenseless.
My own dreams
Threaten me,
My character
Lost its beauty.
All my wishes
Drove me insane,
My brighter hopes

Maybe

The beautiful stars
That once had shone,
Were not here now
They were just gone.
The full moon that
I once cherished,
Has turned gloomy
With the grace vanished.
There are no birds
To come and sing,
To flap there wings.
And here I am
Unable to see your smile,
Knowing you’re away
A thousand miles.
But
I’m still here
Amn’t I?
And in your distant life
I just can’t pry.
