Easy Come, Easy Go II
For a moment they thought it would last forever,
But even strongest of bonds have to sever,
While it lasted they had eachother whenever,
It did not matter wherever,
When people talked they said-whatever,
They know not who pulled their lever,
Their hearts now embrass an un-dying fever,
They never felt that deep for another ever,
They parted ways and will meet never.

White Flag
I raise my sword to the sky
And stab out our love in my heart,
Blood drips that contains memories that are us but me,
Tears that are all of you fall down my face and I behold your reflection
In my mirror-
Love killed by the breath that gave it life,
I do not want to breathe with my lungs
After experiencing the breath of my heart-
Your soul,
I will love you even after the end of love,
And me.

Sometimes Love Like Water Exists In Three States
Sometimes love like water exists
in three states: -
Ice- compound like a diamond,
The trust is pure,
Fresh like a blooming rose
Liquid- When the insecurity
creeps in,
Emotions uncollected like
demons,
But you hold in your breath
To keep the love from escaping.
Then comes the giving up,
This is the vapour state,
Your heart says, 'You deserve
better'
And you breath out- letting go.

Separated by pride
They crave for eachother yet they are separated by pride,
A simple phone call could bring them together but
Their pride prevents either from lifting that phones cradle,
They feign not to notice their hearts evanescence away,
They smile at reflections that nolonger smile back in those mirrors,
They hold in their lachrymose everytime one is with another,
And live the rest of their lives pretending to have moved on.

I Forget He Is God
I keep secrets from him,
Lie while looking into his eyes,
I forget he is all knowing.
I sin, I enjoy it,
Coat my skin with immorality,
I forget he is all knowing.
I bow down to women and money,
Venerate magicians,
I forget he is all supreme.
I quaff toxic drinks and get high,
What i should long for is your holy spirit,
I forget he is the most high,
I forget he can forgive all this,
I do even more-
I forget he is God

Tis Delightful To Watch A Child Play
'Tis delightful to watch a child
play,
All alone but not getting bored,
Photons of glee, hearts they
hold,
Playing without a care in the
clay
I imagine I was like this once,
Without a hint of anger,
Free spirit, no sense of danger,
Just full of iridescent
innocence.
If only all life was like this,
Free of problems- mortal
strife,
But it cuts all with its knife,
So deep until of us nothing
there is.

My Immortal
You let me fall but held my heart together,
You blew me to the depths of Hades but held my breath,
You left me but let me keep your soul,
I cry all my tears out on the sand
But the rain washes them away-
Absorbing the dregs of their saltiness,
Thus making the tears in my eyes fresh,
You are the only answer where there is no question,
Everyone has a place to die;
I sprinkle my blood on your heart for it to open-
For there, I will die

Curius
In our lives we will kiss people we do not love,
We will make love and yet think of another,
We will turn off when we should have turned left,
We will search for things that do not exist,
We will question things we will never find answers to,
We will open doors that must not have been opened,
We will betray people and the live regretting it,
In our lives we might even attempt the imposible,
All these not because we could, we were curius

You forgot to teach me
You taught me to breathe- forgot to teach me to breath without you,
You taught me to live- forgot to teach me to live without you,
You taught me to live, you forgot to teach me to live without you,
You taught me how to kiss- forgot to teach me how to kiss without you
You taught me to love, you forgot to teach me to love without you,
I cannot do anything unless you teach me-
How then do you expect me to move on? To breathe, live, kiss, love-without you?

My Life Without You
My breaks from the inside;
Its maim radiant as the gods
But weaker than the weakness of weakness,
If I open it and cast you out,
I might meet death and his horse
but why do I fear him-
I died without his help,
I drink of Lêthê, eat of the
succulent lotus
But your memory is as fresh
as the touch of a virgin's breast,
So I let you drip through the exploded aortas of my soul
Forming a clot of you in me forever,
Feeling a love like love loves
while you refuse to be mine.
