POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I usually write songs which are emotional and the things that happened with me
Demons That Keep Me Alive
Felt an ache in the core of my heart
Thought to myself hope this will mark the end of it all
But even my last breath won't come to me
Maybe even death won't take the hold of me
Hollowness and emptiness
This feeling is making me a mess
Through these past four years
I've been dragging myself to keep moving ahead
But everything keeps falling apart
All my thoughts are turning into trouble
Who is going to save me from my dangerous mind?
My heart can't take it anymore
I want to live for just a...

Don't Just Let This One Go
You turned yourself away
Leaving me behind
While you make your way through the crowd
Save me from the mayhem in my mind
Don't you know that
You're the one keeping me alive
So stop right here right now
Spin around and look me in the eyes
Tell me that you are just playing with me
I am shouting out for you
I am dying inside because of you
Got no idea what to do
Without you half of my heart is numb
And my mind is like a trigger
It seems to linger on
As you keep walking away
I feel my knees getting weak
'I am yours...
Leaving me behind
While you make your way through the crowd
Save me from the mayhem in my mind
Don't you know that
You're the one keeping me alive
So stop right here right now
Spin around and look me in the eyes
Tell me that you are just playing with me
I am shouting out for you
I am dying inside because of you
Got no idea what to do
Without you half of my heart is numb
And my mind is like a trigger
It seems to linger on
As you keep walking away
I feel my knees getting weak
'I am yours...

Words that I can never say to you
Wipe away your tears
Pull away your fears
Forget what brought you here
No use of breaking the mirrors
If you've got nothing to lose
Make sure to blow off the roof
Run away from this filth
Take away all your guilt
I don't know what you're doing
I don't wanna know what you're doing
Ain't none of my business
I am just tryna keep my cool
Get away from my view
You're only making me mad
But it's okay
Cause i knew that you will one day
What's wrong with you
Why are you so mean
With me and to the people I love
Stop...
Pull away your fears
Forget what brought you here
No use of breaking the mirrors
If you've got nothing to lose
Make sure to blow off the roof
Run away from this filth
Take away all your guilt
I don't know what you're doing
I don't wanna know what you're doing
Ain't none of my business
I am just tryna keep my cool
Get away from my view
You're only making me mad
But it's okay
Cause i knew that you will one day
What's wrong with you
Why are you so mean
With me and to the people I love

Light of the stars
Take me to the beach
We could walk and talk
And forget about the heat
With empty minds and open hearts
You and I will watch the stars
As the sky becomes dark
There is nothing here for us to lose
We can use the silence and the peace
And make some memories of our own
The beauty above us
And right next to me is extraordinary
Keep looking far ahead
No one is here to make any amends
We have got the perfect melody of the water and the beach
And the stars in the sky are enough to give us light
Dig into the sand

The Water
Water seems so calm
Going in it could bring no harm
I have got myself tied up with scars
I need to wash them away like moving cars
As I dip my feet in the water
I can see something calling me from the underneath
i go along with the moving little waves my feet caused
My body starts to feel hollowed
And no wonder why I feel shallowed
With the water washing me away
I am not afraid of what this could bring
Take away my pain and sorrow
There is no hurry
The cold water crashing against my body
Leaving me numb where it...

Let You Go
Hope it hurts you
When i say i don't love you anymore
Hope it kills you
When i say i don't want you around me
Hope it makes you wanna cry
When i say i have nothing to say to you
Hope you die little
When i say nothing at all
The way i am treating you
Does it do anything to you
I just want you to know
This is all that happened to me
When you broke us apart
When you tore us apart
When you said it's over and you are tired
Maybe it's just me who is still wired around you
But i honestly hope you'd feel the same shit i did...

Now You're Gone
You are gone somewhere I can't reach you
Holding you is all I need for now
And I can't believe you are gone forever
I am here begging for your laughter
Though I know, I will only get to see you in the hereafter
Faith has led me to a disaster
Nothing can be undone
And you're gone , you're gone
Why do I keep thinking of you
When I am in bed
When I am out with friends
All I need is to feel your presence
Seems to me I am asking for the impossible
Cause now you're gone, you're gone
There should be a way for me to get you back...

Everything You Need
When all the hope is fading away
When all that you know is becoming unknown
All the questions in your mind are left unanswered
And your heart keeps breaking down time after time
Don't be scared, hold up
Cause after all the suffering and pain
The rain will be gone leading you to a brighter day
It will take all your misery away
Things will change for the good
And all that matters is how it all will be
Your suffering will come to an end eventually
Just don't let your soul disappear
Everything you need and all that you will ever...

Walk
Don't
Just take away the things you own
I'm gonna stay by myself tonight
Don't need nobody
Don't need no one
All i need is my faith and strength
Cause in the end of it all
Everyone goes away
And all you are left with is yourself
So please don't you stay for long
The longer you stay
The harder it will be to see you sway
But no i will not stop you
Oh no not even once
Walk into my life
Walk out lf my life
Don't tell me about yourself
Cause once you will open up
I will open up too
And letting you in will make me...

Hey Friend.
Hey friend
Gotta write all my heart down
No i am not complaining
Just wanting to get some answers
About how could you do this to me
Do you even know what i am going through
This ain't no happy song
Cause now all the music is blue
I am never in the mood of doing anything
It's like half of me is drowning in the sea
While the other half is flying free into thin air
Hey friend
When you hear this
Don't you cry or break down
Cause that's not what i want you to do
Maybe you could take some time
And try to make everything alright...

Diary that won't ever open.
Oh my where are you now
It's been raining for days
And i am all cold and tired
My heart is beating slow
A simple hello from you would make everything alright
Oh don't you think about me too?
I know i am weak and i feel unsafe
Sometimes i may seem desperate
But thats because when you are there for me
I can see the rainbow shining so bright
And it stops to rain for a while or so
Maybe it was wrong of me to let you in
Maybe you took me for granted
And i was fooled too easily
Maybe you don't even mean the words you speak
And the...

Blacks and Whites of life.
Before everything, i used to think life is fun and really enjoyable and full of happiness. I thought sad people must be crazy to be sad and depressed or maybe they just want sympathy and that they just pretend to be sad. It's not like that at all. After i went through things and was left abandoned and broken, i realised the true meaning of life, the different sides of life. One side is colorful and the other is black and white. Black, the sad things, things that broke you apart, things that hurt. And white, the memories that come back again and again to haunt you, to refresh the wounds and...
