Could it be?

 

Could it be the maps followed were the people lost?

What if I’m the wisest of them all?

Crave love, crave joy of intelligence 

What if I was able to turn these heads?

What if early death means you get to live 

Could it be I have reached the end of the dream?

What if we are rats running for nothing?

What if everything’s worth a total null?

I bleed green

 

My blood is green

Its like cheap gasoline

All can burn, its convened

I am dispensable

They tell me my worth, its expendable 

They put me places 

Right on the ground

Human rights, what grounds?

They’ve tried to put me down

I’ve bled, look I’m teary now

It’s a skin I can’t peel off

It’s a seal, it makes sound

They have broken my wings infinite time

I’m ‘dheet’ (stubborn), I’’ve outgrown them +1 more times

Winter Escape

We built a jail around

Called it home somehow

Dreams and stars and hopes and spark

All stayed outside this park

We adorned it with our careful love

Thinking it’ll take us up

We were dazed and sad in the eyes

The darkest blues we have seen in skies

You said ‘you don’t feel stuck anymore’

Indeed we locked in on us.

Time flew, like a tortured cell

We both have been back bent

I love you now, I love you always

You’re my most special place 

Liberties, we both take today

Winters, we didn’t escape

Lantern of love was never out

Through darkness, we have howled

I’m drenched fully in your richness

I bloom, you’re the witness

I am uncertain of the way

Nothing’s here to stay

 

Shaken roots

 

Lost my shine, mask’s not staying on

Smile numbed, crooked smile

Its me again, my own valentine

Roots shaken, not yet out

Heart sickened, taste’s sour

This is my life, not ours

I refuse to stay hit and ran on

I am coming to haunt you down.
