I am

I'm a fleeting desire, not a soulmate
A siren's call, a passionate mistake
I'm agony untold, not a blissful respite
A blinding spell, an enchanting light 

I'm the lady luck, not an angel in disguise
A twist of fate, a roll of dice
I'm a deadly gamble, not a stroke of chance
A Karmic encounter, a destiny's glance 

I'm an ephemeral echo, not the divine voice
A trick of reality, a dangerous choice
I'm the whispers on the wind, not an epic tale
A transient memory, a moment so frail 

I'm an untamed gypsy, not a bird of paradise
A hint of sensuality, a touch that electrifies
I'm the haunting of your soul, a tormenting melody
An unwritten song, an unfinished rhapsody...

 

Bird of Prey

Soaring high in the sky,

I could never reach you,

Preyed on my heart,

I just could not defy you,

A fleeting night of passion,

Spent hours tracing your ink,

Wrapped in your warm wings, 

Felt like I could never sink,

Caged in your strong arms,

Dreaming possibilities forbidden,

Have to let you go soon, 

Can't reality just stay hidden,

Million promises we made,

But now you've gone too far away,

Taking your warmth with you,

Can you not stay?

Soared high on your wings, 

keeping reality at bay, 

In those moments you were mine,

My own bird of prey. 

Dream

I open my eyes from a hazy dream

Trying to remember what could have been

Sorting through memories from an unfinished time

Of those caressing whispers in my ear

Causing shivers run down my spine

Trying to put a face to your haunting voice

Recalling the way you made me feel in your arms

Every touch of yours is branded on me forever

I just want to feel alive once again

But you leave me cold with just your impressions

I close my eyes over and over again

Trying to escape into the half forgotten dream

Wanting one more moment together

Hoping to find out just who you could be

Want to call out to you, if only I had a name

Reaching out to hold on to you

But the emptiness I find just causes despair

You were so real but were you really there

I wish we had more time together

It's driving me crazy, these endless thoughts

We were a melody half written

An endless ballad unsung

Want to hold onto what was yet unseen

Washed away in wisps of wakefulness

Reality seeped into that beautiful dream

Forever a Lie

Every forever is a lie
It only lasts until the next goodbye
Dreams are never meant to matter
Like fragile glass waiting to shatter

Hopes never should be held high
They’ll drown you but still leave you dry
Life is a puzzle an endless game
You think you own it but it won’t tame

Love is just a breathless sigh
It’ll be gone in the blink of an eye
And when you think you’ve mastered it all
It’ll all end up in an ungraceful fall

Just keep your head high
Through the final goodbye
Don’t you say forever you will try
As every forever is a lie

Shadow

You are my reflection

On the other side of the wall

A walking perfection

Never letting me fall

In this world of deception

Million shadows on the wall

It is my perception

You are better than all

You are my life's fascination

I wish the time could stall

And you would look my direction

Like you could hear me call

It is a divine connection

Separating us from all

Life wouldn't be an imperfection

Had there been no wall

Taking with me our recollection

These memories I would recall

I sadly leave the comfort of your affection

But you will always be my shadow on the wall

The Extra Mile

To spend some stolen moments with you,

I wish I could walk that extra mile

But I'm bound by promises too good to be true

So forgive me if I'm here just for a while

Serendipity was at play the moment we met

With your playful talks you made me smile

There is no moment with you that I'd ever regret

So let me be with you, love just for a while

You form my daydreams, its magic that I feel

You voice, it envelops me in a loving embrace

Every moment with you keeps flashing like a reel

Every night all I wish to see, is your loving face

I wish I could walk that extra mile

As being with you is at stake

And when I reach you, I'd long for a smile

We'd embark on journey we wish to partake

The Calling

Tried my hand at many a thing

But nothing to perfection did I bring
Is there no quality of mine?
Which would bring my name to shine

With heart and passion for them I toil
But all the arts from me recoil
There is nothing that ever means to stay
Wish I had a calling, if I may

I’m nothing but merely a part of a throng
All this fighting never made me strong
Trying to justify why I was born
It breaks me to pieces, I feel so torn

Wondering since the very first day
Am I nothing but a piece of clay?
If so, there is nothing more that I desire
Than to be hardened by this life of fire

I wish to ask again, if I may
What’s my calling, tell me I pray
Would I rather paint or dance or write or pray
Or should I just not bother and get on with the day
