BROKEN SUN




The sky sickly shade of broken sun
Reminds of spilled memories of love sour
As if it is full of shackles settled in the heart of men
Over the burning desire of a woman’s emotion
Leafless trees shattered by the winds grew teeth

Tossed into obscureness of the heart
Walls could not stand the cold invaded hand of time
Mercy got no alibi to justify such ungrateful act
It was crawling forever like my worst winter

Of all I have been through over shredded years
The kind of life I seek is resilience to betrayal
With no surname to her past
All I have left is nightmare of the embrace

The black streets overshadowing the city
Houses fading into the night like stars falling from the sky
Lights, lamps cannot illuminate these feelings I wear
I lie in obliviousness staring at the deserted evening

I climbed to the rooftop and stare deep into the sky
Flagging my thoughts yet with empty eyes
Wrapping every little strength deprived of happiness
Bared a wooden pride, while deathly winds takes away this misery

A RAINBOW SKY


Emotion tossed amidst a rainbow sky
Words scrambled like dry leaves falling from a tree
Barely alive for she was too frail
Carelessly shattered, too broken to lay on an emerald grass
Closed to obscenity, heard her heart beat profusely
As does a thousand footsteps
Treading tears bore out of sentiments
The smile from a fragile heart
The feeling of love cast out to rot
Dying in absent of a warm tight cocoon

DO YOU MIND IF I STILL LOVE YOU?



The past relationship we had is an awful story
Building on a foundation made of plastic
It crumbles when the wind comes at nightfall
I hurt you, do not know what I was thinking

Believe me when I say I am ready to learn how to love
I am not the same man once used to be
I have swallowed my pride and ready to cry
I have realized you are all that I need

Would you allow me to kiss you?
There is nothing I could do to cover your scar
Look at your mirror, do you see me in your heart
Because I am right here

Can I take you for a ride out of here?
It is better if you could the pain let go
I found out the way I showed that I care was stupid
I should not have gambled with your feelings

Every day it is you I am thinking off
My heart, car and home, I would let you have
Every foolish behavior and wrongful words said
Give me a moment, let me make it right

You are the first true love I knew
What need I do to re-write this love
Please babe, do not allow my plea amount to nothing
Because I am still in love with you
