Runaway

-

While the whirling storm of emotions kept hurting me inside,
I tried my best, not to lose my composure,
And faked a smile.

They say I am bold,
They say I am rude.
But no one cares to have a look,
At those wounds,
That I've been hiding all the way through.

They say, "Time heals everything."
But when I look into the mirror.
I can still see those scars,
Engraved on my heart, crimson red.

No matter how far I run away,
Pretending to be okay.
The same thought keeps spinning in my head.
Will time heal everything as they said?

After Me

Puffy eyes, broken heart and a forced smile, This is my last memory of you. I saw you breakdown, as I left forever. Wish, I could have stayed a bit longer, to console you. While you shed your tears for me, I wanted to hold you. I apologize for the promises that I have left behind, unfulfilled. Now that I am gone, I want you to stay strong and chase your dreams. You were not alone and never will be, I won’t be by your side, But I know you will remember me. Find me in the stories I narrated, In the books, that you thought were too overrated. Hear my old school songs with smile, Wear your favourite cap with pride. And yes, do always remember To water the rose, we planted together. You are like the rose,   so lively and beautiful, Yes you have brightened my life With your lovely soul and sweetest smile. Now that I am gone, My heart aches to see you so lonely Don’t be afraid to fall in love again. Oh love, live ...

Purgatory

I asked the Devil, when I met him today,  Why is greed, hatred and violence plaguing every mind? Man killed by man for a metal coin? Where is all the innocence gone? What have you done? What have we become? He laughed, and said not to blame the Forbidden fruit anymore. This is your doing. And left me with a note. 'See you soon in Purgatory' it said. I guess answer lies in the Inferno. I spoke to Cato, as he wiped the last 'Peccatum' off my head. Do humans really deserve Heaven after Nine Circles of Hell? He took me to the stairway to Paradiso, Where I met God on the other side. He said sometimes you need to look within yourselves. "Seek, and ye shall find." After days of wondering why was our Paradise Lost. I think, now I have an answer. There's good and evil both on the inside. In Purgatorio we pay for our sins to cleanse our soul. But if we learn to live above our demons, The human race decaying with selfishness and avarice will revitalize. -SJ PS: Inspi...
