Lucky Me


Pitch darkness this side over,
Faint lights on the other.
All is like a four leaved clover,
Teasing as they go passing by,
One after second after another.

A song on the air,
Cold breeze messes your hair,
Wish I could join the shadows of hope,
Nothing is as sad as it is,
Nothing could be as pensive.
Than the solitude I feel here.

~clap clap clap~ and laugh though,
Mock me and make this go.
Keep me from shivering,
Let me live a life again.
Let me restart from the very beginning.

Gamble


What if?

What if instead of these bloody sweats and endless strife -
We could sit silent side by side,
Watch the sunset and enjoy the night?
Would that satisfy your thirst, oh dear life, to be an audience?
Or, does it mock the definition of your perfect life?

 Glamour means not so much to me,
Do really see a meaning in it at all?
Could you for a moment now, let that be?
Let's just feel the serenity of the nightfall.

What if the birds that fly, up in the sky so high,
Mean, by their fluttering wings, a pensive goodbye?
Then, is it alright to mock them now?
Do you really feel nothing I feel somehow?

What if what we run after - that desired spotlight,
Is what is being offered to us through this cold night?
 Instead of pondering over the losses long ago,
Could you, for a minute now, enjoy the show?
Just sit by me, I will show you what I see so close,
Just sit by me and rest as the the evening grows.

 I promise I will walk you home safe and sound,
Even if there is pitch darkness around.
So, don't worry about it, just feel the sorrow or dismay,
Of the end of life for until the next day.

 What if it was all a show?
I don't know,
Maybe it is,
Maybe it isn't so.
I guess we will never know.

Kryptonite

Light dissolves into the darkness - this day,
A harsh coat of eeriness surrounds us,
Sharp shrills of sheer sorrow and dismay,
And, we fade into the abyss around us.

A wait awaits every night -
A hope of absence, the shame,
With all our might, I fight,
A weakness to miss the us - the same.

Everyday passes as if it never were,
But it was and it's still there.
I feel it and I know you do the same -
You still hear me when I call your name.

The sky above collapses with a creak,
As we depart a pace further,
And, I turn around to peek,
To retain the image a moment longer.

But, you're no longer there,
As if you never were.
And, as I see the love abate,
I assume I was a moment late.

I know you looked back at me,
I didn't see but it was this way.
I was a moment late, a moment unseen,
And, I feel sorry for that 'til this day.

You are my weakness, I don't know how,
But, you will be so for an eternity from now.
