At first, i lost a title for this
How do you write a song with empty lyrics?
How do you write a poem with dilapidated words?
.
There was a time on earth
When people meet to part with each other's part
I lost my soul to a friend
And became a boy with ten heads- having none
It was a time when shadows hold lost memories
And every time my shadows mock me- it reminds me of you
.
I wrote a song to kill my depressions
You wrote a hymn to rescue you from you
We met at the studio of time- it was a beautiful beginning to behold
.
Time was too fast, i could not hold its brake
Fate became too slow, i got tired of following
You became the air that i breath, the books that i read
I sold me to you, and you paid back with you
Your giggles became my riddles
They left me, stocked within the questions in your smiles
.
Your names became a part of me
I fold them in beautiful lines and verses
Your voice turned me a craftman overnight
I carve them every night under the moon and in my dreams
Your words pierces through the walls of my heart
Forming ripples in my thoughts and footpaths in my poetry
.
I die everyday in your arms and warmth embrace
Yet, we were never lovebirds
.
There are things that taste too sweet not to be honey
People that stayed too close not to stay forever- you're one of them
.
Sometimes
You are far from your dreams
Just when you thought you're close to them
And the things you thought are meant to be yours, were never meant to be
Sometimes life starts at same point, where we gave it up,
And ends, just when we thought it's beginning
.
I became fond of you, only to find you slipping off my hands
