A heavy heart

Maybe I am tired of fighting

Maybe I am not that strong

Maybe I don't really know where I belong

There's nothing more to give

There's nothing more to get

There's not much to worry, not much to fret

And still I go on

And still I breathe

And still I have nothing to bequeath

One day I'll be gone

One day at the crack of dawn

One day some place better I will be reborn

THE TRUTH BE TOLD

The light has vanished from its core,
Leaving the sordid heart so sore,
None that can smell the stench,
That comes from its rotting,
The silent voices cry within,
But they fall upon deaf ears,
The sheer indignation of a putrid soul,
Sometimes wily are nature's ways,
She decides who goes who stays,
We are but mere pawns in the play,
Hail the hero that embraces all the lies, Shame to the soul that shatters its disguise.

A LONELY NIGHT!

24 hours ago in the moonlit night,
I came to your door,
Was happy to have you beside me,
Never to have missed that kiss,
It was new years eve,
There were firecrackers making noise,
But our conversation drowned the din,
All I could hear was our heartbeats within,
You held my gaze and I held yours,
We exchanged sweet nothings without a pause,
And then I asked you to come home to me,
The answer was we are never meant to be,
Dejected and disappointed I drove away,
I entered an empty house,
It's silence disturbed me,
So I went along to keep the stars and the moon some company,
I diddled around for a bit,
It was getting too tired to sit,
Therefore I headed back and went to sleep,
Never thought I'd be so lonely on New Year's eve!

WHY???

Are we prisoners of this life?
Is there no hope left in our strife?
Why does everything seem so bleak?
Where is the happiness that the soul might seek?
When will we see that eternal light?
What is there left, to be alright?
How do we live and how do we die?
It brings me back to questions, why?

DYING....

I see it coming now,
From a far distant gaze,
Hopes all crashing down,
Left in nothing but a daze,
I look all around me,
I see people going by,
I'm sitting alone I wonder why?
I guess now, no more I have to pretend,
For I see it approaching, the beginning of my end!!!

THE PANGS OF DESPAIR

Life is a burden that I carry, It grows heavier with each passing day,
Becomes deeper as I stride along the way,
The way that leads to nowhere,
There will be a day when I get there,
There, where I am alone,
As I’m destined to be,
There’s nobody, just my tears and me,
No fear I will know,
No feelings in tow,
As I go deeper and deeper into the dark,
My journey, it has no end,
With life’s burden I have to bend,
Bend lower and lower till I pray,
Let this journey end in my grave!!
