Life made its move

 Bringing us together

 Only to tear us apart

 in its next

 "Checkmate"

The Regrets

Image Source

I have many regrets
Not
for what I did
But
for what I didn't do

I have many regrets
Not
for when I said 'No'
But
for when I said 'Yes'

I have many regrets
Not
for when I lost
But
for when I won yet lost

I have many regrets
Not
for the Satanic side
But
for the mask I wear

I have many regrets
Not
for writing my true self
But
for camouflaging in life

I have many regrets
Not
for who I am
But
for living as who I am not

I have many regrets
Not
for thinking 'how tough life is'
But
for thinking 'how to end it'

Burning The Bridge Down

Image Source

I am going to burn the bridge

That connects us

We will see each other

Through the flames

Warmth is nothing

Compared to our agony

When the flames die down

Don’t wait

For I would have gone

Don’t find me

Far away

or

In the ashes

Your Memories

I haven’t forgotten you

It's just that

I have stopped remembering you

Destined

Image Source

Lips smiled coyly as I remembered him

Eyes teary, and brim

With melancholy

Oh, why so sad? asked everybody

'I had no courage

Left his heart fluttered in the cage

Here I am

Someone else’s bride'

I could have replied

Living apart

We were destined

The Witness

I want to tear down the sky
The witness
To our love
To our passion
To our misery
To our loss

They Are Blind

You make them laugh
You make them smile
Yet
They are
Blind to the pain
you hide behind that smile

They are
Blind to the heart
your broken heart

They are
Blind to the agony
you endure

They are
Blind to the loss
your lost love




They are
Blind to the desire
your ‘want’

Because they are blinded
By you
who make them laugh
who make them smile
Masking your pain
You carry inside!
