Sliding through my fingers
On a dark monsoon night,
The drops of rain pelt down
Reminding me of days gone by.
...
In silence deeper than the abyss of your heart,
In storms louder than the roaring tides of uncertainty;
And in tempests that ignite your fear,
I will stand by you, as to this be sure.
...
Would it hurt you, Dad, to know your little girl now;
Would it hurt to know that she's not the same person she was before;
Would it come as a surprise that she's grown up and left a lot behind;
Would it hurt you to know that she has loved and had her heart broken;
...
Chaotic minds and broken dreams,
Thoughts on grief and mixed beliefs.
Conflicting ideas with indefinite feuds;
Barriers crossed, abandoned in between,
...
Falling in love is a sin,
As is keeping yourself confined within.
Sanction required for every nugatory task;
Freedom of self: Compromised.
...
The name incited emotions,
Of all natures within.
Soulful performances delivered,
Taken to heart in an instant.
...
Into darkness,
I descend.
Struggling,
to find a light.
...
