Edvard Munch's Separation |
( And for anyone who is thinking that something is terribly wrong with me or i'm some lonesome broken heart, that is just not the case! *smiling broadly*)
THOSE BLACK, STARK BLACK EYES......
I
try to be normal,
But
your incomplete eyes
Thrust
me back,
And
push me into the pool of doom,
drenching
me into numbness...
The
eyes that once sparkled with life
and
promised me a lending hand,
Have
suddenly turned dark and blank!
And
all I do is just stare and stare at them...
But
even those stares scare me,
for
I fear of losing myself,
or
I secretly fear,
the
dark secrets they might reveal.
Am
I repenting my past?
Or
am I whining over today??
My
head whirls with questions to questions
which
are met with pitch black silence.
No,
I don’t regret yesterday,
B'coz
it gave me a whole new experience.
But
I do whine today,
Wishing
that yesterday was eternal.
Your
words promise that tomorrow would be same as yesterday,
But
your strange eyes deny aloud every word you utter.
You
say you're confused,
But
actually, you are bored.
You
ask me to speak my heart out,
But
deep inside, you fear that very thought.
Trying
your level best to fake,
Why
do you do so when you know I'll guess it right away???
The
smile that was once your virtue
is
so fake and unreal,
it
stabs me from within and is worse than an abuse!
I’ve
lost my smile; I've lost the kid in me.
Every
culture and rule that bonded me, are slowly drifting away
Things
that I thought were my strength
are
suddenly diminishing to nil.
Things
that I knew as my vices,
laugh
at my virtues,
mock
at my every move...
And
feel realization hit me hard, really hard......
I know my wishes and desires
are
the real reasons I'm doomed.
And
this time, I won’t be able to bear
Another
event of despair and regret.
Will
not be able to meet again
Those
black, stark, strange black eyes
