Vague dust settles in the humid desert
The afternoon has been long
...
I stare at the starless sky
scared of what I might turn out to be
As my mind indulges on pleasure
That constantly pierces my being
...
The next day will come when the sun peeps out
When rays are glistening through my window
I may not have tremendous faith but doubt
But I shall stay to witness tomorrow
...
Cascading like tendrils of a vine
Beautiful yet tangled with the rest
Where to take a sip of something divine
Is the obstacle of the repressed
...
Law Of No Return
Vague dust settles in the humid desert
The afternoon has been long
I am tired and need some comfort
But with the clouds I do not belong
I have adapted to my lifestyle as a wild cat
Without time for excuses I kill my prey
I have survived the depression munching on rats
But as disgusted as any other, I try to break away
Sick of seeing the fortunate
Subtly watching their lies
In silent vengeance I long to snap and stake
But because it’s not in my nature to quickly pounce
I will simply have to wait
I scavenge for something different
And just hope to make a change
But as one I know I cannot defeat
The flock’s power in my way
Foresee the candle-lit future
Silently ease the process’s pain
I reach out to catch nirvana
As the darkness threatens to cut fate
So here I am as I used to be
Miserable, for I couldn’t succeed
This future is not what I wanted it to be
Frustrated, here I sleep
Unable to accept the past
That I could’ve pounced earlier then
The past is there
And this I fear
Its law of no return
