Losing you




I was there,
With you, for you.
My promises, my love at your disposal
All for you, I was.
And now, left on the edge, hanging
To die, with a thin thread.
We walked together,
But there on the crossroads
I stood at the path of our destruction
And lured you in
With false joys n rainbows.
A rocky path, Thunderstorms,
snake-filled pits.
You surpassed all,
But in the end, fell in a trap
And I stood there watching,
Helpless, shocked, speechless.
Now I’m a cripple, who is of no help,
Falling apart herself.
I am losing you,
And that....
Is the last wound I’ll ever get.

Waiting

In the darkness where I sit,
Surrounded by unrecognizable noises
With the stars above
N dirt below,
A lonely street with not a speck of light
With a car or two, rolling by
I gaze down its length,
Lost.
Those empty, shut windows
Looming overhead,
Like silent spectators in a theatre.
Overgrown weeds and scary trees
Line the sides
Leaning on the buildings, like pets
Ready to be unleashed
And thrash about on their master’s command.
They don’t scare me,
Not at all.
But in the loneliness they are my companions,
In a place, where darkness has no ends
N the lifeless are your mates,
Where, the world is cut off
And there’s only you...
Waiting...waiting..
Biding your time..
To break free.

Life, In circles




What happens when ,
You reach back to where you started.
A forest, without  a path.
And in an attempt to cross it
You walk in circles
Round and round,
You go again,
Reach back, with a frustrated head.
But worse than that, is when you see
Your past catching up on you,
When you see life
Taking turns again
Leading you back
To what it was,
From what you escaped
And thought had ended,
Never to meet you again.
Now, the terror takes over,
And you are left, trembling
In anticipation.
With nothing to do, nowhere to run,
But face it again...
Face something that will never end.
