    Wish Upon Romance

    Slamming my door, Im confused yet wild.
    Breaking into tears, Im truly guarded and mild.
    I cannot help but to hiss and tease,
    at the one who gives me no release.
    Entrapped inside my life, un fair.
    Feelings of indeceiveness, just another affair.

    Rolled up in my blanket of security,
    I ask, why is this life my duty?
    The lamp casting long shadows across the room.
    I bury myself beneath the cushion and gloom.
    Peeping out the window to see one single star,
    I reassure myself it’s two that seem so afar.

    From where I lay in a bed of hopelessness,
    my eyes and mind seem to fuse in this mess.
    Producing for me a daydream of black and white show,
    a blur of image comes into focus, swaying to and ‘fro.
    Two stars, which dance across the night.
    Two people, who romance in the light.
    It’s only a picture, a thought in my mind,
    of a true love story, that I pursue to find.

    Clones

    Blinded by the crowd,
    you cannot make decisions.
    Intimidated to reveal yourself,
    scared to be an individual.

    You don’t know who you are,
    following everyone else.
    No opinion, No choice,
    you are merely one of them.

    You’re trying too hard,
    not being yourself.
    Your friends don’t know you,
    for now you have changed.

    You’ve sacrificed it all,
    only to blend in.
    You don’t really like them,
    you don’t like yourself.

    My faithful mask

    Surrounded by unknowns,
    They cannot see my face.
    Beneath my covers,
    I hide my inner secrets.
    No one knows who I am,
    I do not wish to reveal it.
    The true self which lies within,
    Can never face the world.
    For I have so much to hide,
    And so little trust in you.

    Drifting

    Slowly piece-by-piece I feel im losing you,
    Penetrating my heart and going straight through.
    Leaves rustling in the wind, only to fall as tears,
    Now I feel the end between us so closely leers.
    My hopes are pleading with the storm that’s rising,
    And as you walk back to me its oh so surprising.
    Feeling your spirit come back to mine,
    I know this time we can last through time.
