voices in the head

Sometimes I wonder
As I aimlessly wander
If there’s anyone I’d met
Who had as a soul mate
Just the voices in their head


I look at you from afar
Like a child stares at the star
An angel you could be
So beautiful you seem to me
And the voices in my head

Soon the sun rises beyond the shore
Slowly, I see you no more
Don’t know if I end or begin to dream
As bright darkness blinds me
But nothing stops the voices in my head

Many faces. Even more voices.
Almost all I recognise.
But all so willingly allow me
To disappear in this abyss
With the voices in my head

farewell

one word to end the misery
drown, in forgetfulness, lovers' history
the beginning of something new
one word to make Us - me and you

one word bigger than many
than all the love, the kisses and honey
finally one drop defeats the mighty sea
what joy brings this heartless victory?

my hand's bejeweled with the promise of love
white dreams still shower from above
i still hear the music you made for me
around my neck lies my dearest memory

all that you are to me
how can i forget so easily?
just one word to mark a final adieu
alas! i don't know how to say farewell to you

You

I search within my weary heart
I look in places I never travelled before
That beautiful place deep within the soul
Even there, seeking words, I go

Shall I call you my angel?
Who stays with me everywhere I go
And quietly watches everything I do
Even when I do not know

Or are you my knight?
Strong and tall standing beside me
Fighting every battle in silence
Not letting the storm bother me

My sweet lover! My heart calls thee
Showing me how to humbly give
Many sagas I’ve heard of lovers dying
But your love teaches me how to live

A mystical elf, is that you?
So serene, silencing every fear
So beautiful I can’t stop looking
There’s magic when you are near

How can I put in words
What all you mean to me?
What name does one give
When they become your Everything!

Tears...

If every drop was a melodious note
Strung together to make a symphony
My tears would sing a love song
Though drenched in dry melancholy

If these crystals danced and twirled
Hopelessly upon my cold cheek
Up on their toes, as Gisele, they would
Perform till my eyes go bleak

If these droplets were pearls
Part of a silent rosary
Every prayer to God would be for you
Till these oysters became weary

If a kaleidoscope of colours they were
Painting a wish, a thought, a reverie
My muse would just be memories.
Times now lost in history!

If these were scattered letters,
Speaking the language of my heart,
Every syllable. every unspoken word.
Would recite the aching saga of being apart

No dream, no dance, no sound,
Not even a prayer painted by me.
A transparent feeling, moist yet arid,
Every tear is a reminder that I need thee!

i dance...

my music is the sound of silence
rhythm is in the echo of laughter from days gone
shadows of the past are my audience
don't pity me for i dance alone

joy is a long lost friend
happiness, a rare visitor.
hope and faith are a flickering flame
i dance for no willing spectator

dreams. i have none. for i don't sleep
desires. yes, each day they're new
your applause and praise won't make me bow
for i no longer dance for you

so lost... i trampled on the heart of love.
guilty. i wait for kiss of its poison
wishing i'll ascend into the light
where i can dance again. eternity to oblivion...

Dreamworld

Some call them castles in the wind
And some tag them as fairytales
A land where dreams are reality
And happy endings… a new beginning

Desires are overrated
Emotion, no more underrated
This magic never leaves you alone
Love is everything, but underestimated

Enter the gates of passion
Where wishes run wilder than stallions
Angels walk with you, elves serenade you
And each moment seems like millions

Woven with a silver thread
Careful! They are fragile
Come dream a sweet dream with me
Just for a little while

The Kiss of Dawn

Upon my soft cheek
You left that silken touch
Like the kiss of dawn upon the skies
Like a song I love very much

Oh! Hold me again in those arms
Let me feel alive like the sun
From the eerie darkness within
The kiss of dawn has won

Let me soar high with you
Feel the wind under my wings
And to the kiss of dawn we fly
Like the birds that dance and sing

How wonderfully different this feeling is
How complete this love seems
Like upon the blushing blue sky
The kiss of dawn gleams

Long after the sun has set
And the moon and stars are gone
You stay with me in my heart
And return with the kiss of dawn
