Candlelit Battleground

Was there a purpose behind the way she moved?
Timid and curious one foot after the other
She reached out for your hand but barely touched it with her fingers
Before you grabbed her neck and threw her across the room

Her blood was intact in her veins
But that night something else was released
A monster that once was caged
Behind fishnet stockings and satin drapes
She roared as she tore the sacred chains
And then she raised her neck and smelt the room
Her mouth slightly open tasting the air

You took over her senses
She took over your body

It was a war between mind and matter
Between my animal instincts and my humanity
Between your cold heart and your warm flesh

Tonight it's war between you and me
And we won't stop till we paint the ground red.

Bygone begone

Why do you let the shadows of bygone haunt you?
'Let bygones be bygones', they say it for your health
Let us pretend to be new born every time we open our eyes
With no memory of the past, countless possibilities in sight

Lets climb highest mountain
And scream from it's highest peak
Bygone begone!
Bygone begone!
Bygone begone!

Place a black veil over a black wall
Light a torch towards the burning sun
Let us pass our time pretending and restraining
It is all make-believe

Utopia

Tell me how is this night is different from any other
The hurting never stops
It doesn't need attention, tears or kindness
Breaking the cage, slithering through my veins
It moves like a snake.

It moves like a snake
Guardian of my Utopian dreams

Defeating me, protecting me.

White is for healing

Here I lie
Waiting for you to open your eyes
Do you see me?
I could be invisible
Lying next to you makes me doubt my existence.

I have buried the ghost
but once it hears my longing
it will travel through the earth back to my heart

I once opened a door to watch the maple leaves fall on the floor
But as I walked my empty self to the graveyard
the snow had covered the leaves

White is for healing

Here I lie
Waiting for you to open your eyes
And when you did
I didn't see you any more
you are invisible
we are invisible.
Our existence is like the ghost
Like maple leaves buried under the snow.

Aim, shoot and regret

Decisions, decisions.
Welcome to adulthood.
I am probably going to look back someday and laugh that I spent 24 hours obsessing about this one thing but right now I am in a battle.
When you are in the battlefield there is no past and no future. Only now. Right now.
Right now there are decisions to be made.
Which road do I pick? What kind of person will I be if I take on this journey? Am I even ready for it? I don't want to die in vain.
Everyone is in a frenzy to achieve something.
Can I get a moment please?
And can you make it last forever?
I am wounded and I cannot fight.
Forgive me for being a coward but I am not ready to die and I am not ready to heal.
Let me bleed this time.
Let it be forever.

Smell of Bodhi

Just before the dawn
Before the first ray of light hits my life
Shadows come alive
They whisper in my ears, begging me not to open my eyes
I am the daughter of the night
How can I betray the darkness?
The sun is my oblivion

Invisible line


I walk on an invisible line
Infinite possibilities with a blink of an eye
Roses have blossomed among the refuse
Hope and faith have survived.

Daydreamer


Tiny frame can only hold so many colours 
Without letting it drip out of the golden gates
I wanted to be the ocean, the moon, the night
I wanted to be God’s own design
Instead they put me in cage
Teased me every time I closed my eyes
Now I am soiled with time and space
I have been told to be happy when the sun shines
But I am the daughter of the moon and the night.
