Violet Night
The world turns,
Dimmed by the light, of half-burnt lanterns.
Deep in the night,
There's a lilac tear across the dark screen,
Thats been covering all our dreams.
Got no control,
On a sullen scar; standing alone,
Looking from afar,
At sugary-madness, with a silent backdrop,
Shining on our faces, as we look up.
Is this the end? Or is this the start?
We've all got intentions, in our minds and our hearts.
Is this this the world? Or just an illusion?
The light of our lives shines across the sky.
In this violet night...
There's no progress,
In the lavender sky, bearing sweetness,
To everyone's eye.
And their murmur, like the song of the earth,
Bearing meaning, to what I ain't worth.
Clicking pictures,
To pretty memories, on digital scriptures.
But thats not for me.
'Coz everyone's got a special hand to hold,
While both my palms are bare and cold.
Is this the end? Or is this the start?
I've got intentions, in my mind and my heart.
Is this this the world? Or just an illusion?
The light of my life shines across the sky.
In this violet night...
Where do I stand? Where is my home?
Why am I roaming all alone.
Where is my life? And where will it go?
Why are these things I'll never know.
My world turns,
Dimmed by the light, of my heartburn.
Deep in the night,
There's a lilac tear across the dark screen,
Thats been covering all my dreams.
This is my life, ticking down from here.
Second-by-second, And I'm going nowhere.
Second-by-second, And I'm going nowhere.
This is our lives, ticking down from here.
Second-by-second, and we're going nowhere...
Really nice :)
ReplyDeleteKya! I like it! You've really got a good idea on how people think don't you? I could really relate to this poem (except the heartburn part). Nice. ^__~
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN. you have 'literarily' weaved each pearl to form an elegant and graceful necklace.. A song that perhaps relates to everyone. However may be only a few can delve into the sadness, the beauty and the depth of it!!...Loved it!!...:)
