He could write that music,
He could make things rhyme,
Yet he could not much comprehend,
This feeling about her all the time.
A humble novice song writer,
Going all crazy about her.

All his thoughts, All his songs,
His heart to her it belongs,
Never was his songs mundane,
Seeing her smile when she came.

All the magic he would write,
Yet non that he could own,
He sits by every morning light,
Sitting, thinking, all alone.
An awe-inspiring song writer,
Yet is nothing without her.

Working wonders with his pen,
Loved a love Fate never meant,
Absence makes the love go weaker,
With time she was there no longer.

All his thoughts, all his songs,
His heart to her it belonged.
No longer was his songs the same,
Without her he was a maim.

This ends the story of a songwriter,
crazy about her,
nothing without her.

Oh Romeo, so close yet three worlds apart,
how would i know if you'll come for Juliet's heart,
a confined heart to be rescued,
a confined heart for you it longed.

Dear Juliet, so close yet three worlds apart,
this love brought us misery,
misery beyond all physical torture,
when then could we together break free?

Oh Romeo, standing under the stars,
do please wait for Juliet,
she does not need your promises,
your love itself is strength for her.

Dear Juliet, trapped in the dark empty room,
i will go against all odds to save you,
for saving you will be my choice,
my only choice so to be with you.

Oh Romeo,
Dear Juliet,
we shall run away from this starlit city,
towards a love unconditional and true.

He sits alone in this empty room,

In which she never since appeared.
His world was dimmed so very soon,
For that he so much feared.

Tears came with persistence,
Memories blurred of his existence.
Of him she no longer sees,
No more of that broken promise.

Regrets was all he was given,
Their melodious rhythm of life broken.
For Fate she painstakingly relinquished,
Their flame of Love extinguished.

In this room,
For two,
Three worlds apart.

When you are away, away from sight,

I know where to find you, closed my eyes tight.
You seem so clear, to a huge degree,
So much you are etched in my memory.
My heart then questions my mind above,
Is this friendship? Is this love?

When you smile, a smile so sweet,
My cheeks burn and swept me off my feet.
So much i want this euphoria to stay,
Stay on my dear, don't walk away.
This beat below fools the thoughts above,
Is this friendship? Is this love?

Stayed and wait, as Fate unfolds,
I won't mind, left out cold.
All of these, you may not know,
Nor do i let my feelings show.
One last question for my mind above,
Do you seek friendship? Or her love?

Wrecked by love, she wept so profusely,

And Love's fire had so burnt him deeply.
Spun into harshness, she went blind,
For heaven she sought, escape he finds.

She sat by the corner in Winter, flooded by tears,
He watched the clouds, yearned the end of years.
Her mind with darkness desecrated,
His heart with grief so pervaded.

But God called them both to listen,
The singing of birds, the mews of kittens.
For Spring thawed the cold Winter,
And life will still go on forever.

And so their minds set on things anew,
Their lives cross under the tree of yew.
Eyes and smiles gave both away,
Spring began, Cupid again at play.

Love makes her blind, yes it will,
But Love too lit her world a rainbow hue.
And this puzzle of Life he will not miss,
Running into the arms of joy and bliss.

Ever and everywhere.

I loved you above all life,
And my heart is all yours,
No wind so strong flickers our love,
This you said so,
A year ago.

I pledge under this clear blue sky,
I will be there, shine for you,
Nothing so strong breaks this love,
Witnessed under the rainbow,
Six months ago.

You said it was pointless,
I struggled to hang on.
Helplessness was all i felt,
Hands loose, let you go,
Just this very day ago.

Amidst the sorrow frenzied heart,
No more weeping, no more tears,
I promised God to move on,
As He grants me His love,
At dawn of tomorrow.

I am your short lived candle,
Yet you left me by your desk,
For you already exude this warmth,
your adorable smile.

In the sky this lonely star,
Yet you shut me out with the blinds,
For you already have it in your eyes,
that striking twinkle.

Perched on the ledge this hummingbird,
Yet you kept me out by the door,
For you already can touch many hearts,
your honeyed tone.

Rejected by you a guy growing old,
Yet still here and heart still yours,
For i am who i already am,
always here for you.

(C) KC

Wrecked, broken, bled and numb,
Though do you seemed to care?

Longing for your smile, your warmth,
I saw nothing but your shade.

Watched your back, you walked away,
Did you seem to know?

Held on, hopeful, foolish and blind,
There you lie in arms of another.

Searching for comfort, for your heart,
Nothing but turmoil.

Made up my mind, shall trudge on,
In the arms of cruel Fate.

(C) KC

I smile, only for you,
i love a love that's exclusively for you.
standing here under the rain,
and loving you regardless of any pain.

reaching out for your hand,
and hopefully never let it go.
with you i yearn for eternity,
inseparable like that of the sand and the sea.

without any doubts,
i'm willing to believe you totally.
without a word,
i embark on this love so blindly.

i can and i will bring this love far,
with you holding this spot in my heart.
never be replaced for the moment,
as its a love built to last.

Soon as the leaves fall,
I watch on as her shadow grows tall.
A shadow that i can only see,
but not own.

As the sun sets the distance has nothing but grown,
i walk down this memory lane but all alone.
thrown into confusion,
my pulse beat less, my heart moans.

By her go, i tied myself down,
with these memories that meant nothing to her.
Now with i as the only noun,
i feel helpless, droplets of tears.

I love thee in a thousand ways,
however she does love me not.
move on as i hear them say,
a new beginning that i sought.

love's the funeral of hearts,
unpredictable as a game of cards.
