Imbroglio

Where have all those days gone?

When we wove blankets of dreams

and slept in them,

dreaming of only happiness and

chewing gum.

Where is it lost?
maybe in all those years of mundane living,

where all we heard was lies

to evil we were unwary,

evolving from diamonds

to people with dark hearts

but a countenance placid. 

Placed in this imbroglio

closed in by walls of structure,

those bubbles of dreams

pricked by the pin of doubt,

they ruptured.

Where did we lose ourselves?

maybe in those numerous streets we walked,

with dark alleys on one side

and bright lights on the other,

where survival stripped us naked

of our dreams

and all we had left were

trench coats and bad decisions.

A Tell-Tale Song

I take my pen
and write this down,
a melody
a tell tale song
I wish you're here
to read this now
this one's for you
so hear this out,
how your thoughts
plague me night and day
your voice
your touch
those happy days
I used to be a locked up box
but now you seem to have the key
I've opened up
you opened me?
But this strange feeling
grabs my throat
its unfamiliar
and all unknown
I shrivel up
I've become cold
but then you come
I fear no more
But alas,
a petty coward am I,
I wrap my feelings
in shadowed lies
unable to come and tell the truth
that I only wish
you love me do.

Note: Oh good God! What is wrong with meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

When the winds blow

When the winds blow

And my mind flies

I feel like living a dream

I feel like soaring high

When the sun shines

And then there blows a warm breeze

It just makes me feel like I’m in a fantasy

It instantly alleviates me

Nature alleviates me

It removes all my fear and

Takes all my doubts away

Makes me feel alive

All this in this beautiful world

I can never deny

Anything in this beautiful world

So I hitch a star

And fly around the world

And no traffic cop to stop me

And I glide around this...

Beautiful world....

The Scariest Thing

What is the scariest thing in the world?

It is not a ghost,

It is not the darkness,

Neither is it love,

Nor death,

Scariest thing in the world?
I'll tell you the scariest thing in the world,

I'll tell it to you because I witnessed the sight,

No, neither is it the devil nor is it the night,

It is when you see dreams become dust,

When betrayal follows trust,

The strongest of people break,

And the heavens start to shake,

When hopes are shattered,

For the people we love, we never mattered,

And the emissaries of hope,

Turn into the harbingers of pain,

When you realise hearts are no longer pure,

Your thoughts have become obscure.

When you see life is a chimera,
And each breath you take,

Gets heavier and heavier,

And you crawl through life,

Being pulled behind by the skeletons of despair,

And when all is lost,

You give in,

And let the infinite universe devour you.
