War And Love Too

Losing is a tragedy
Winning is even more so
For I am up against you
And you are unwilling to forego

Let this be a warning
To all, including you
If you’re ready to lose your heart
Be prepared to fight for it too

One must be filthy
Other must misbehave
One will turn out victorius
Other will be a slave

We started out together
Now relatively unknown
All your virtues have left
I stand here on my own

Careful, I must be
For the path is dark and long
I know you are stronger
I just hope I am wrong

Thus, I begin to make a move
It’s never too late to start
Even if I lose you
You’ll always be in my heart

Warlove

‘Tis of no consequence to fight the battle
When the mighty war beckons overhead
You are a ruthless butcher and I’m an unarmed cattle
It doesn’t take a genius to know who is going to end up dead

One look of yours has the power to destroy
One touch can melt my fragile heart
Yet, in the ruins, I find my joy
Is this the end? Or a new start?

There you are, with beauty and sin
And here I am, with the ground crumbling at my feet
You’ll taste victory only if I let you win
While I’ll taste love with this defeat

Anon

One thing that I am sure about
(Excuse me for being rude)
I wish I could block everyone out
And live life in solitude

Pluto

You’ve been looking for the perfect man
You haven’t found him yet
Go study astronomy
He’s not on this planet

I’ve been looking for that perfect girl
I’m glad I found you
Are you an earthling?
You’re too good to be true

A Death Doesn’t Make A Difference Anymore

A man is dying
No eyes are crying
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

A woman is burning
No heads are turning
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

A child falls asleep
There’s no one to weep
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

Thousands are killed everyday
Toss the newspaper away
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

Johnny took a gun
Shot his friend for fun
He’s all of twenty one
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

Talking about his wife
Johnny took another life
Stabbed her with a knife
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

You were so in pain
Promised it’ll never happen again
But your promises are in vain
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

For then came Michael
And repeated the cycle
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

Now you promise more
I’ve heard it all before
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

You’re just a spectator
I’m just a narrator
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

So mind your own score
Act as you’ve done before
A death doesn’t make a difference anymore

A Helping Hand

I lay on the floor, bruised and wounded
Separated from the world, alone and stranded
With a dose of misfortune that Lady Luck had handed
I prayed to God for an oasis before I am buried in the sand
Just when I thought that all hope had ended
She came up to me and offered a helping hand

All my life I’ve lived in gold
But not a penny I can hold
Now that my heart is growing cold
“Don’t come close to me. There’s dirt all over my hand.”
Acting like nothing was ever told
She came up to me and offered a helping hand

Everything comes at a cost
All my young thoughts
Had suddenly been lost
Just when I thought there was nobody on this planet that can help me understand
Untying all my knots
She came up to me and offered a helping hand

I swore under the pouring rain
Not to trust a girl again
For it causes nothing but pain
Just as I thought all the love in my heart was about to end
Amidst the pouring rain
She came up to me and offered a helping hand

Never had such a fall
None that I can recall
Found myself up against a wall
All I needed to go across was a loyal friend
Promising me to give her all
She came up to me and offered a helping hand

Ray Of Light

I’m standing on top of a mountain
Beyond the reach of the light of sun
I look down and all I see is black
And I see no reason to turn back

Everything is just as I want it to be
So quiet and serene and calm and free
And I know there are folks scared of the dark
Waiting for a little ray of light to spark

Darkness isn’t as dark as it seems
Or demons and spirits, echoes and dreams
No, and I am not afraid of the night
What I really fear is the light

Little Joys

All have gone through it but none cares to warn
Is it something that one must learn the moment that they’re born?
Happiness is as elusive as the dreams that you chase
Follow the path of others and you will never leave behind a trace

Looking at these photographs makes me believe I can smile
I wish I could be careless and free like him once in a while
I wish there was a market where laughter could be bought and sold
Even for a little moment of joy, I’d give away all my gold

Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it
But once time has flown past you, it is best to forget it
When I was young, I longed to grow up and be a man
And now that I have aged, I wish to be a child again

May God Be With You – 3

I’ve noticed a change in you
It’s there for all to see
You’re a fool to think I can be deceived
You are just not what you used to be

Is this intentional?
Or have you just gone with the flow?
I didn’t see this coming
Or I would have warned you so

You find these lights charming
And your friends do too
The brighter these lights shine
The faster they blind you

You’re free to choose your own path
I know you can tell white from black
No matter how deep a hole you fall in
Remember, you can always come back

So, go and make your own way, darling
I know you will find all that you want to
I’ll always watch your back
And may God be with you too

How I Wish That Day Was Today

A life full of mistakes. I’m only human, you know
The alarm bells were ringing and they even warned me so
If I get another chance, I’d say all that I have to say
How I wish she was here with me today

A thousand people around me but none can understand
They talk of profits and gains as they rise to shake my hand
All the money in the world can’t make me rich in any way
How I wish she was here with me today

I’m looking for a reason. Or is it just an excuse?
Been trying so hard. I guess it’s of no use
There’s a little hope in my heart that troubles me all day
How I wish she was here with me today

Everyone thinks I’m happy. They couldn’t be more wrong
Fear and hesitation has stayed with me all along
And now they’ve even brought new feelings with them to stay
How I wish she was here with me today

Maybe someday my luck will change and we’ll meet again
Maybe on a pleasant summer day or when it begins to rain
All my darkness and pain would then be washed away
How I wish that day was today
