Macabre tale of love

Live's path has been fraught with

macabre tales of love.

I started out on a lovestruck journey, to find

A carcass of wanton dream

rotting in the heart's cove.

I saw the ghosts of deceit

feeding on the souls of the lovers fooled.

leaving a hollow cavity of misery

where the glowing ambers of promises

and the fire of love cooled.

The pus of despair oozed

out of every pore of the rotting flesh

of the false promises made.

The black blood of passion

coagulating on betrayal's blade.

I passed by so many burning pyres

of unrequited dreams .

I saw so many hollow promises

and love struck eyes with dreamy gleams.

I now convulse when I hear those

three words, for they bring a never ending pain.

I almost drown ,when those deceived eyes begin to rain.

The tears are like acid burning into the skin of my soul.

I set on a long arduous journey, but the greatest pitfall

became my goal.

Now as I grope for hope in the darkness

of the empty void that took me in its swallow

Every moment is an eternity as my soul rest on the gallows

I close my eyes for the blade to strike

before I lose my head, before my heart is pierced by the pike.

I look back for an instant that seems like an eternity

I laugh at the brutal irony of it all and In muted agony I groan

as I realise

The carcass of dreams that I saw on the way

was of my own.

Passion Power Play!

I've spent many twilights

I've spent many a dawn

Thinking I am your man

While I've just been a pawn.

For all the games you play

I've been here to stay.

Never considered moving on

I guess I had that masochistic desire

to be a victim of your con.

I like the way you played with me

I love the way you led me on

Only to drop me

The moment I begin to fawn.

You've always held the key

coz You've never cared

I've played the fool

for my heart was bared.

I 've been licking the wounds you've inflicted

I like the taste of my own blood

and as my soul bleeds

and my eyes drowned by the flood

I look at you with love thats everlasting

and it's always gonna stay

and you can go on hurting me

with all the games you play.

My Icarian dream.

Don't mourn my fate

for I knew I had a date, with my destiny.

Don't shed no tear or lament

for I soared high before I fell from the sky.

The fall was hard and the seas were deep

but I kept a promise that I promised to keep.

I tried, I lived

My Icarian dream.

You wanted me to stop , you wanted me to slow down

you wanted me to be safe but you wanted me to bow down.

Yes the sun's rays were harsh, they melted my wings

yes they seared my skin and sent me plunging.

It took my life, but it couldn't take my soul

for I lived my Icarian dream.

I know you think I was a fool

I know I angered the gods

I know i challenged the order of things

I know I was bound to fail

but I'm happy I didn't crawl

I'm happy I stood up and

lived my Icarian dream.

Tell the sun to be ready for me

Tell the gods to sharpen their spears

for I will come back to prevail

to soar and to sail

and yet again to

LIVE MY ICARIAN DREAM.

sometimes,...

Some times you just want to end up being the loser

Some times you just want to be hurting

Some times you want to feel like a fool

Some times you want your dreams to crash and burn

Some times you want to be wrong

Some times you want reason to fly out of the window

Some times you want to be misty eyed

Some times you want to tear out your heart and wail in pain

Some times you want your heart to race , your vision to blur

Sometimes you want to be consumed

Some times you want bleed through your eyes

Some times you want to be laughed at and ridiculed

All other times you're pretending...

The acrid smell of love!

There's something floating in the air around me

There is something that renders me sick

It makes me revulse , it makes me feel fear

It's the acrid smell of love.

Its a smoky haze of visions of what can be,

Its the scent of another being in my thoughts

Its the dreams that paralyze me, coupled with the

acrid smell of love.

My thoughts, like beasts are trampling reality

My desires like a hound, chasing my sanity

My illusions of chastity shattered like glass

I can hear the whiff around me,of the

acrid smell of love.

I've seen lesser mortals falter

I've looked at them and felt disgust

I've marveled at my strength, I been proud of my invulnerability

now..I'm weak,confused and consumed by the

acrid smell of love!

speck-ulation

I try and reach for the stars, I am pulled down everytime.

after all i'm only a speck.

The tiny unit that i am, with a threshold of pain far exceeding my size.

The pain becomes unbearable at times,I cry and i fall, after all i'm only speck.

I am with my follies and limitations, with my ambition as my life force

trying to muster up a storm, i fall, i fail, after all I'm only a speck.

There's always a battle raging , outside and inside.

I lose more than I win , after all I'm only a speck.

I've been promised a future, I've been promised friendship

I've been let down time and again, after all I'm only a speck.

I will reach the stars,I will bear the pain ,I will win the war

I will win.................

I will do some thing specktacular one day, I know that

Till then you can call it speck-ulation.

A Love Too Hard To Swallow

As I watch you blowin' smokin' rings,
with a smile on your face, uttering sweet nothings.

Yeah, baby its true, When I'm with you, I'm fakin' it too.

There was a time, when we were people, who were in love,
with conversations as true and free as a flyin' dove.

But I guess, Time extracts its toll,
with the clock tickin' by, love travels in a hyperbole.

Its sad, but its true, yeah baby, when I'm with you
I'm fakin' it too.

What was "ours" once has become "your" and "mine"
often the fake diamonds better original's shine.

No wonder we say, "I love you too"
it's true baby, when I'm with you, I'm fakin' it too.

It was meant to be a love sweet and tender and deep
but its too dry and shallow, wonder what makes it ....

A love too hard to swallow.

A love too hard to swallow.
