How can I decide what's right?
When you're clouding up my mind
Can't win your losing fight all the time
Not gonna ever own what's mine
When you're always taking sides
You wont take away my pride
No not this time
Not this time
How did we get here?
I use to know you so well
How did we get here?
Well, I think I know how
The truth is hiding in your eyes
And its hanging on your tongue
Just boiling in my blood,
But you think that I can't see
What kind of man that you are
If you're a man at all
Well, I will figure this one out on my own
How did we get here?
I use to know you so well
How did we get here?
Well, I think I know how
Do you see what we've done?
We're gonna make such fools of ourselves
Do you see what we've done?
We're gonna make such fools of ourselves
How did we get here?
I use to know you so well
How did we get here?
Well, I use to know you so well
I think I know
I think I know
There is something that I see in you
It might kill me I want it to be true

And I cracked our crystal vase.
As I flipped the yellowed pages
Of some tear-blurred ancient novel,
Unread, disliked, thrust away
In some dark dusty corner
Of the shady bookshelf;
Unloved
Did you feel my love?
When I in my cruel bitterness
Shoved you out, from my mind,
From my heart, finally from my memories…
The bitter mornings sat and drank the lees;
Drained its cup to the last wet drop,
Till there remained nothing left to lick
Other than the empty white cup-
The empty hollow shell
Of my life, once a hell-
My hell, of glittery nights, sleepless in my bed;
My hell of drowsy hangovers, of sarcastic rosy threats;
My dark shallow evenings, my throbbing head,
The voices unheard, the letters unread,
Of my platinum hell;
Beautiful life
I’ve seen thy golden face,
Tanned with smears of prussian blue
Unholy disgrace…
And again the silent night screams at me
To go back to the day
To the unkept promises
Made by me
Meant for me ,
Broken by me…
And slowly the tingling grows louder,
Till it’s a blast of icy fire
Painful orgasm
Of delicious moments…
My beautiful life,
Don’t make me suffer so
For this purple dream-
I promise I’ll pay back,
But I wont go back
This time …
I promise I’ll pay back

Ode to My Moment
Beyond words, I was...
Beyond broken
Beyond numb.
I waited, as I hoped,
Just to succumb.
Pinch me, I prayed,
Pinch me and drag me out,
Out of this debris of memories-
From 10,000 leagues down.
My heart did weep,
It twisted and turned.
It stung so deep.
I did, I had learned.
As it unfurled-
What pain was;
Dark red and violent blue.
It seemed infinite.
But I did, I waited
For you..
All of a sudden now,
Light, I could see light
At the end of the cave.
Is that right?
Light, blinding my sight.
I’m left, stranded,
Standing all alone,
With neither pain nor bliss.
On my own.
Bliss will come,
With its own sweet pace.
But now as of its kingdom gone
Sweet pain, glorious pain.
Once more let it rain.
The pain is all I can think of,

Pain...
It strikes like a bolt of thunder, ripping through your night, your lovely, beautiful night, stunning you to silence…striking you numb..blinding you with it monstrous shrill light. its beautiful in its misery.
Then after the bolt from the blue, it leaves you with the blood. Bright crimson-red blood. Spreading gradually but with an unstoppable determination through your pure, white bed, staining even the farthest of corners. Then it dries. Dries to a hard coat and sticks on. You tried to pry it apart with your fingernails. But its hopeless. It stays on, you forget the colour white after a time. Red is all you can see. Red is all you can remember…

They were the last ones standing
Standing all alone
As their comrades fell one by one
And the other side won.
They were the last ones to retreat
With their heads hung up in pain
Craving to be martyred
To free their soul from the shame
They had seen their friends die
Seen their land snatched away
Their integrity raped to pieces
All they asked for was death
For it wasn’t death but freedom
Freedom, they lost at enemy hands
Freedom, they had promised their sons
To bring back home to their lands
They were the last ones killed
As they walked away from their dream
Killed, not martyred
And none heard their silent screams
