Where, it has no end

Once
He was
good!

But,
Was he
good
enough?

Then...
He was
better! !

Still,
The question
remained
Was he
better
enough?

This Is Why!

This pain inside,
it decides to reside within
within every single millisecond
that I think of trying to stay away
away from you

This love inside,
it fights hard to break free
free from this jail of a heart
takes pretty much every breath
every breath to hold it all inside

I try, I die and I come alive
the circle continues
and then comes the pain again
again to start all over
and decide to reside within.

The Things, I Hide From, Myself

I'm being frozen
by the bubbling fears
and the hissing emptiness

Like rubber balls
pushed into the water
they keep coming up
faster & stronger every time

I sense the threads of life
fluttering behind me
trying to cling to
any source filled with
the mysterious energy called hope

I count every moment passing
up until the very end
waiting to see the sun
like a blind man
craving to see the light

A Walk To Remember

As I walked on
Waiting for the best to happen
Whilst my heart was searching
I found the light

From a place I least expected
I called it, the place,
'My own heaven'

And suddenly like lightning
As I walked passing the heaven
I found the dark
Lurking in the shadows

More interesting and worthwhile
And saw it as it was
Embracing the worst
I crawled into my bed with it

Calling it, the bed,

Today

Weekly news, spreading egos
blasted brains and maniacs
polite smiles, awkward eyes
disregarding the brave act

Radical views, comical scenes
post traumas and tantrums
nosy lives, winning strikes
delusions of sane minds

Bubbly thoughts, serious faces
unknown depths and train wrecks
Are these new? , they are now
perversion of the neophytes

Tradition calls, memory recalls
resemblance of tamed cats
try these shoes, wisely choose
hypothesis of an outcast.

Journey

Roads and tires
faces without traces
hundreds of emotions
I'm passing in a blur

Sitting on the corner seat
of a racing private bus
I'm flying towards my dream
inhaling stirring dust

Stealing silent glances
at the pretty girl next seat
I'm browsing through my chances
it's hard to swim upstream

Stops come and go I guess
people join and leave
but knowing I'm alone
makes me feel free of me

Trip To The Edge

They keep adding complications
More and more each and every time
Say they want us
Then breaking us apart

Bits by bits
Part to part
They dislocate us…
Trying to fix, what they
Don't want to see

Keep trying my dear ones
The day will come when
We are called on
Needed by the real

Time is ticking away
Keep stalking
Stalling, still talking

Rebirth

I was alone,
rusting in heaven...
blinded by illusions of love.
bound with chains of hope.

I was asleep,
dreaming aloud...
encouraging myself to breathe.
reaching for the control within.

I was recollecting,
running in circles...
trying to prove myself to the world.
working to gain the ultimate trust.

I was defining,
turning towards undefined light...
confused by how confused I was.
bamboozled by the complicated signs.

Pretence

One Lonely night
Under my bed
I found a soul
rusty and wet

Tearing apart
grey webs of art
I took the soul
out of the dark

Oh! What a fright
it gave my old heart

Oh! What a searing light
it shed on my new life

A silenced strife
of my silenced life
The silenced start
Silenced apart

So, I Held On

Where was here
when I traveled back
in search…
in need of hope…

Time ridiculed me
when, I needed life,
needed you…
just to breathe in,
inhale… just to love…

Moment by moment
as the time passed us by
the windows closed, and
the doors got locked, even
walls rose up from the Earth

I got lost without a key
and you didn't want me,
to follow you… to be,
