Dark Matter


The perfumed air
Filled with dark matter
The feeling of the winter rain
And the absence of color

Tempting, breath taking
fragile and protected
A flower so blue
Just like the heart
Numb, sad; yet beating

The proposal


Forever and always,
I will stand with you,
against them all,
I can not make the pain go away,
But I can make it easier.

I can tell each color,
That reflects in your eyes.
And each muscle that moves,
when you smile.

There can be no one
better then me
in your life

So lemme hold you
and make you mine

After Glow



I can feel the moments I spent with you,
I can remember the peace in your eyes,
Feel the love in the back of my mind,
It's all I can do to make it last forever.

Your untamed soft hands touch my heart,
In ways I always crave for...

Holds me in between like I am the only one,
And always distract me unexpectedly when we kiss..

Forever is a moment,
and that moment is you,
as my heart lies in your hand,
making my world glow with your love...

A Bulb



Faith sees a beautiful blossom in a bulb,
a lovely garden in a seed,
and a giant oak in an acorn.

While I see ,
A spark
A smooth flicker
A moment to remember
A high surge of light which reveals path to those who wish to see...

While i spread the darkness;
trying to gulp the light of this eminent source.

A gleaming orb,
crafted from glass smother
than the broken heart
which wishes to illuminate me...

But after all,
it's me...
Who waits, sighs,
and forgets...

Little heart



A thousand sighs
One little heart
Shaken but unbroken

Scars



Some scars should be left untouched
Some scars should be left uncovered
But covering them up my habit
As some scars are not to be shown
Some scars are not to be seen
As this world is nothing but cruel

Barbed Wire



Standing behind the barbed wire,
I think,
That how it fixes everything.
A wall to keep people out,
only the ones allowed can get through.

Sharp and entwining is the barbed wire.
bleeding and bruised,
piercing the skin,
the ones who are allowed
reach to us.

People make brick walls around them,
While I keep everyone out using a barbed wire,
So don't try to climb this sharp wall,
Because if you'd get pass it,
all you'll find is a broken soul...

Crafted Together


Lemme hold you hand,
Your soft finger tips holding mine,
Your skin being felt by mine,
Intertwined in love,
like the cool breeze of winter end.
Your touch eternal,
making me love you more,
while making the tones of life warm...
Our hands and You and I,
Entwined, perfectly as if crafted together...

Murder Scene



I know, what it means to be alive,
I won't give in, no matter how hard it tries
But this is a murder scene...

A scene where I burn,
burn in your memories,
burn in your love,
burn while having the desire to hold you...

This is a murder scene,
created by me indeed...
a scene containing
flame
burn
and ashes
of us...

Canvas


Our hands are like a canvas,
filled with patterns of life.
Our destiny painted,
Colored by numbers.
It's a canvas
For an unplanned picture
made by God.
We imagine in mind
Design by our deeds
And color it with our heart

Ik Sitam Aur


ik sitam aur meri jaan abhi jaan baaqi hai
dil mein ab tak teri ulfat ka nishaan baaqi hai

Kill the last piece of my existence
I do not wish to remember
I do not wish to go through
through the pain
yet again

apni nafrat se mere pyar ka daaman bhar de
dil-e gustaakh ko mehroom-e mohabbat kar de

Let me survive this pain,
this anguish
ALONE

19 - Let it go



Letting it go,
Am letting it go,
As I close my eyes,
Everything fades away.

I fade away,
Your memories fade away,
I destined to die...

Born in darkness, then bathed in light,
Just to be a part of the coldness around,
Peace at last, as I let go...

I... let... it... happen...

18 - Royalty


I feel cold in this desperation,
Remembering all the sadness,
and the frustration...
Trying to let it go...

Burning your memories,
Burning the royalty of your love...

09 - Ignition


You ignited a fire in my heart,
And all I want is you to put me on fire,

I'll ignite the fire,
So come put me on fire,
As I give myself up,
To burn, like a savage,
And to die like a coward...

08 - Love you more


Love is weird, weird indeed. I cling, I hurt, I scream just because of it.

Somehow the more you, put me through,
The more it makes me want to come back to you,
The more I try to push it away,
The more it makes me addicted of you,
I say that I hate you,
But I know the intensity of pain,
It just makes me love you more.
I scream, I cling...
I know it's sad but it's making me happy...

Put me on fire


This is nothing but a nightmare,
This pain just doesn't fade away,
Why I still can not see clear,
Why it feels like, I ain't ever coming back.

Look at what you all did to me,
Putting me on fire,
Satisfying your desire,
Burning every bit of me.

Yet I survived,
Now put me on fire again,
Burn my existence,
my soul,
burn till my heart beat,
stop beating,
stop singing,
stop remembering,
what it meant to live.

Come put me on fire,
as I give my self up,
to burn, like a savage.

So many flashbacks,
ain't that a bitch,
So just allow me
to close my eyes
as you all put me on fire...

Music; May be my light!


In my darkest hours,
The times which I love the most,
I play it, I let it beat.

Letting my heart call out my self
from the depth of solitude,
I relish my self,
as Music,
May be my light,
which brings me to life.

Silhouette an end



I hear them whispering in my dreams
The angles of death calling me
I see their message engraved in my soul
A calling of the light towards the unending darkness

Not a word spoken,
Nor a story told,
Darkness a word,
Silhouette an end...

My world is yours


I have wondered a thousand miles,
Looking for life;
Wandered both sea and land,
Yet never held a lady's hand...

Though many fairs their love confessed,
My own was never quite impressed.

Until I saw your beautiful face,
Which made me believe that love exists...

I didn't think a second thought,
Married you with a pure thought...

Now love I find in every place;
Surrounding me with grace.

And as I hold your hand in mine;
I share my world with you,
to live forever divine...

Pot of flame


I am your personal pot of flame
And forever i'll remain...

My existence depends on you,
as you are my oxygen.
You sustain, while I devour...

In my light,
I only see your face,
My light that pledges,
To ever love you,
To ever cherish you...

This pot of flame enlightens us both,
I burn to be yours,
So that you can,
Feel my sincerity,
my devotion,
my love,
and the pain which I endure to be yours...

I am your personal pot of flame,
but a flame which is fragile,
Which falters; with each breath,
Iridescent; with each doubt,
Declines, when others come near it...

I am your personal pot of flame,
My existence indeed depends only on you,
as you are my oxygen.
And you sustain, while I devour...

Na shaan hai sikandari,
Na zaat hai kalandari,
Bus mayray mehboob mayri pehchaan hai,
ik jaltay diyaa si,
jo hota hai raiza raiza sirf tayri aarzoo mai...
