HEARTACHE

Something happened when I

saw those eyes for the first time,

That smile on your lips and

The jaw that twitched.

The butterflies in my stomach took a flight,

And left me with a bright smile.

As the time went away ,

You also started pulling away.

You said its not the perfect time ,

But how can I say what's on my mind

That there is never a perfect time

You just have to hold it and make it perfect.

Afterall you just left,

Left me with a shattered heart.

Now my heart is in pieces,

And some of them belongs to you.

Still you have those bright eyes and smile,

But they are not for me anymore.

As the time went away,

The butterflies also starts to fade

My heart is also healing

And my mind finally understands that

For me you didn't had the time,

From the start you weren't mine.

For you I was just a phase,

For me you were nothing

but a heartache.

THE DEVIL

I know he is the devil,

The dangerous one

But why then I can't stop

Thinking about him.

I know he is the bad thinker,

The ill fated,

Symbol of evil,

The insecure one.

Still I can't stop him to

Come and devourer me.

Sometimes I just want to

Kill him but I know

If I cut the devil's wings

I will be the one to bleed.

As good as dead

Sometimes i am afaird to close my eyes

Because if i close them the darkness comes

And the fog began to surround

The whispers become louder

And the hand trying to hold me to ground

I know if I close my eyes for long

The fog will suffocate me

The darkness will devourver me

The whispers will turn into screams

The grip will become tighter

I know I will get lost

My body will become still

And the pain will be gone

lk if I close my eyes for long

I will be as good as dead

WHO I AM ?

They say fake people are the worst.

They hide their feelings, their truth

and pretend to be someone good.

They say a fake person wears a mask

and hides their true self from the world.

But i think everyone is a fake person here,

No one wants to show their feelings,

no one wants to take off their mask and

reveal their fears.

No one wants to be vulnerable in front of their monsters

Everyone is a fake person including me

And we all know that

sometimes the truth

doesn't make a good story.

I am annoying for few, shy for others

And i am scared because I don't know

Who I am to me

ALWAYS WILL BE MY HOME

Magic with wands and vows

Gives me hope.

Spells and creatures

That made me laugh and fall

Accio to bring, lumos for light

They made me smile so bright

Love of a mother for her child

So he can live and fight for what is right.

A moment can change someones life

That was mine

When i found the power of love

That lies within us all the time.

Choosing what is right not easy,

And love is worth fighting for.

Magic stays within our veins,

Around us all the time.

Lots of adventures, happiness and pain.

If someone asks me

After all this time

I would still say always

I swear i am up to no good,

And mischief is not managed

Because home is where we find happiness

That's why HOGWARTS will always be my home.

FIFTEEN MINUTES

Happiness and sadness,

Love or hate

As i say, it only takes

Fifteen minutes to destroy or save

Begging for help or helping someone

A step can take or give burden

As i say, it only takes

Fifteen minutes to destroy or save

Loving someone or leaving them

A small act can make that happen

Let it end or let it start

A moment can make a person carve a heart

As i say, it only takes

Fifteen minutes to destory or save

LOVE !

Four letters, one word

Love!

It's a joy, it can also suck

Beautiful as heaven,

It can also consume you till your death

When you'll be in it

You'll know the rest

Four letters one word

Love!

It can make you fly

It can also drown you

It can make you feel the best

Or it can also make you feel the worst as it finds you

Four letter one word

Love!

It can be beautiful

It can be ugly

It won't come when your most needy

It can also make you feel greedy

A sudden feeling, at the most unexpected time

You'll know when you have fallen in it

Four letters one word

Love

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ME

Well,

What do think of me

When I say I want to die

When I say

I hear the voice of a gunshot inside my mind.

When I say

I love and hate the thought of me dying at the same time.

When i say

Lets drink the poison from the same wine

SHADOWS

Always following, staying in the dark

We all have shadows that know our past

Where we are going and where we live

They know everthing, they just watch from the dark

Some send blood colored flowers

Some sends threats

We all have shadows that are bad

They are just like the nightmares from our childhood

Just like the monster

Mother used to remind us of

From our childhood fairytales

Now they have come alive

But the bad thing is

They are worse in real life.

The past does not always stay behind,

Sometimes it becomes the shadow

And wants to take whats mine

The shadow looks at us

Like we are little mice,

And when the darkness comes they roam in our house.

The shadow always follows and stays in dark

Their presence makes our life hard

They think we are their prey

They attack us from the dark

Sometimes the shadows just rip our life apart.

WANNA BE A CHILD AGAIN

What do you wanna be

when you grow up?

It was the most asked question

When I was a child,

Terrifed to answer

I used to say many things

at the same time.

Police teacher, scientist

Even president sometimes

It was a dream to grow up

Be mature just as adults are like.

Being mature is not a bad thing

Just bad when someone has to be

Before it's their time.

Bad when you have to leave your

Imagination, creativity

For a long time.

Bad when they want you act mature

When your just a child

They wanted me to act

So I started practicing that.

They wanted me to grow up

So i just did that before it was my time

They wanted me to understand

So i used to listen to there talks at night

They wanted me to leave my imaginry world

So now I stand in the real life.

What is wrong? Why don't you understand?

It is the most asked question at this time

But how can I say that

I started understanding way before

It was needed

I started acting mature way before my maturity came

I started seeing things way before

They should be.

If now someone asks me

What do you wanna be

when you grow up

I would say I wanna be a child again

A child with imagination

A child with their childhood

A child with no pressure to be mature

A child to grow up at the right age

Not before their time

I want to be just a happy child again

•DREAMS

They say wait and see

All our dreams will come true

All our problems will be gone

And happiness will bloom.

They say it will be fine

Just like it's in our dreams

And tears of joy will join

The flowing stream

They say pray to the God

To make our dreams come true

But i think they forget that

Nightmares are dreams too

• CAN WE BE LIKE THEM ?

I wanted to be like the characters in the books

And I guess I was already like them,

Tired, unhappy and fighting for my desires

Although we humans can not be like them.

Fantasies are not ours to be in

Dragons not our pets

We can not go into the woods for quests

Mindgames and riddles not ours to solve

We do not have a throne to sit on.

Some say humans need fantasy to escape reality

But the truth is

Humans need fantasy to be humans

Because we can't be like those characters;

We can not yield a sword like Jude

We don't have gods as parents

We can't go to magic schools

We do experience the brutal reality.

No love stories are told

More resposibilities are held

We are growing old.

I wanted to become one of those characters

So I lived in books

Wondering when my time would come

As my story kept writing itself

One by one

•FOR THE DEMON INSIDE

I always wanted to live in a fairy tale

Fighting demons, living happily ever after

But I never wanted someone to fight for me

Never wanted to be the damsel but the warrior

Slaying demons, standing against the storm

Acting all strong

Now standing helpless in the reality

Because the demon is inside me

Can't see the storm because it is in my mind

Can't act strong because I am a craven person

Can't find a happily ever after because they don't exist

Maybe I am the warrior but fighting for the wrong

The demon is fighting for dominance

The demon is inside my mind

Maybe I will lose this fight

Because it is not a fairy tale, it is my life

I am the warrior fighting for the wrong side

For the demon inside
