The Demon Within

The Demon Within

The clock struck midnight 

With the blanket over my head 

All I could think of was 

Will the monsters haunt me tonight?

With each passing second 

As I reflect my life 

All I think about is how those monsters would haunt me in my dreams 

But the thing about monsters and demons are that they eat you alive 

Is it me or does the whole world fights 

The monsters and the demons of life 

Funny how a mythical being can make us fear life 

Or even petrifies us till the very soul in our body 

When we were kids we feared the demons underneath our bed 

Forgetting the demons that ruled this world 

Were the ones who owned the soul 

See our eyes, deep down you would only see the darkness 

With nothing but a demonic gaze 

It is not the monsters under our beds 

We fear 

It is the demon that lives within that we must fear 

The ghost that leers in the darkness we fear 

Here Without You

Here Without You

The night underneath the starry sky 

With the only light being from the moon far away 

With my gaze set on the Polaroid I had in my hands

All I wished was to have you here again 

Living in this turmoil for the past few days 

Couldn't even understand why my life was in this haze 

I had nothing except my heart to call my own 

Until my eyes were set on you 

You were always there for me 

When I was down and out in sheer ruins 

I was just a soul who had no direction in life 

Until you cam into my life

I always think of how you coming into my life was a blessing in disguise 

But sometimes the devil comes into your life disguised as the priest 

I always thought of you being my Gabriel but you were Judas in disguise 

I always gave you my soul and my heart just to have you beside me 

 

You just pounced on the chance to drive the dagger through my body 

And replace blood with venom in my soul

With cracks in my skin reminding how you stole my soul still visible 

And all I can think is how my life has changed ever since you left 

Here I am 

Standing on this bridge, all alone thinking of you tonight 

With the moon looking down at me all I can say is here I am standing

Waiting for my soul as you were all I had.  

The Scream in Silence

The scream in silence

Nights are so great to experience 

The mild wind that flows under the pale moonlight 

The slight rustling of the leaves being the only sound you hear 

For some this might be spooky but for some it might be peaceful 

Strange how a human mind works 

How it portrays the situation as per our thoughts 

No one ever feels comfortable in a room with a dead silence and is spooked 

By the ghosts that live in his mind

Ahh the ghastly sound of the ghost that lives in it
How the silence burns through the flesh
But that is the beauty of the night 
To unleash the secrets it holds 

The night has a tale of it's own 
Some good and some ghastly 
Yet it has it's marvels 
Funny how these nights are surreal 
For some it echos terror and for some it echos peace

You're In My Veins(Part Two)

You're In My Veins(Part Two)

Funny as I sit here alone 

In this burning house injured and all I could see is you 

With a fading image of yours sitting besides me 

As this house burns down to it's very foundation 

It has been a troubled time 

Ever since I saw you last 

This life seems meaningless 

How strange is it when a stranger is able to destroy you 

Everything has changed ever since you left 

With the things that defined me 

Now coming crumbling down 

And your memories not fading 

How tough it has been surviving without your soul intact 

All I can think is your face 

And how mesmerizing it was 

It captured my soul in the cage of your eyes

With the eyes twinkling, only a tin man wouldn't fall in love with it 

How we wish we can control life 

In our own way and trying to make it safe 

How the things which we once survived upon 

Turned out to be fake 

Just like the angle face of your's 

Everything will change 

As nothing is ever the same 

Just like you leaving me at the worst stage of life 

And now me standing in this inferno 

Trying to remove you from my system 

And how many cuts I cut 

Still I can see your ghost from my memories come to life 

How I try to get away from the past 

But sometimes you can't win 

Even when you have a glimpse of light 

Showing you a way out 

You are unable to get them out 

As the blood now drips 

From the scar on my head I see you coming back 

From the long gone memories staring right at me 

Asking me to come 

All I see is the blood around me 

And then I figured it out 

That all I ever saw was you 

You were there with me even if I was alone 

As you were always in my memories 

No matter how hard I tried 

The scars I caused just to get you out of my system 

I then realized where you were hiding 

Not just in my memories but you were in my veins 

As this building chars down 

The flame evaporating the last drop of blood from the ground 

I see you downstairs gazing in despair 

Only to see the flames hold me in it's cradle forever

The Rush

The Rush

"I need you alright. I NEED YOU!!"
As she said he disconnected the phone
He knew that he might not make it on time
And how could he when he was busy saving lives.

She was there sitting right besides the phone.
Waiting for him to call back
She waited for the entire day
Because it meant the world to her
the day meant a lot to her

She wanted to be with him the entire day
He knew how much he meant to her
That even a small smile and a kiss on her forehead
Would send chills down her spine

He was there at the hospital
Lost in his oceans of memories and how she became his everything.
How she had redefined him and made helped him
To achieve his dreams

Luck had always been with them
Ever since he first laid eyes on her at the coffee shop
He couldn't sway his mind off of her
She had got the attention of the biggest heart surgeon of the city in her palms that very moment

"The coffee is from the gentleman in black" said the waiter
Placing the cup at the table along with a tissue which had something written on it
She knew who he was
But couldn't believe her luck

That a nerd who she met in school
Turned out to be her only friend from school who she missed
Time might have been a beast back then
But it was an angel that day

From a cup of coffee to a dinner
And then to frequent meetings
The couple who was brought together by what seemed like a mere coincidence
Was actually brought together by time

Her remembers his last dinner with her before he was leaving town
She was dressed in a serene white dress
That night she could have melted the coldest of hearts
They both knew they had fallen in love but never admitted it
Until

The day he was boarding his flight
She knew how she felt, she hugged him tight
And wished for him to never leave her sights
As he made her feel complete

As he looked at her from a different perspective
which no guy had ever had, she could be herself around him.  
As he was gonna bid adieu
She leaned forward and whispered in her ears "I love you."

This tale went on for years to come
To today when he had to stay at the hospital with a case when
They were expecting their first baby
He threw his files on the ground and rushed to her.

Only to find her...
Holding a child in her hands
They could see tears in each others eyes
and the love they shared had open his cute little eyes.
The tears normally met with a frown but that day
They had met a smile 

The Mask That Fell

The Mask That Fell 

As I see this society taking a new shape 
I see the things that this world had never seen 
Even if they did, it remains unspoken of
How people can change in a single whim of a second 

What if I tell you that everything is not what it seems like 
What if I told you that everyone hides behind a projection 
A projection of what people want to show to the world 
A projection of the things they wished they were 

Life is tough 
As every second passes by 
It changes the entire nature of our existance 
Makes us question our life decisions 

Life has many games and deciet is it's favourite 
Where our emotions are played with, destroyed 
And mutilated to such an extent that we can't think of using it again 
In today's day and age only deciet can help you survive 

People are around us 
There for us only when they have something to gain from us 
Life is complicated by the ones who play politics just to gain something mortal
This is the web of deceptions which no one can escape 

No matter how hard you try to escape it 
You get bogged down 
The web is strong enough for you 
Or you have been hurt back with the stab wound still visible

The people who we thought were heroes and have the heart of gold 
Are the ones who are the villan and have the darkest of hearts 
It is not the people in our lives that change 
But it is their mask that falls

While almost all are trying to hide there masks to deciet 
There are only a few who are throwing there masks forever 
As it is not the deeds we do that defines us 
But who we are underneath that defines us 

The Ring

The Ring

When we were kids

We always had thoughts of how life would be 

From the daydreams of a sucessful life 

To the harsh reality 

We all used to think that life would be easy 

With everything almost within our reach 

Just a little hard work and dash of luck 

Life would be perfect 

But who knew that dreams would be expensive 

With the people running after the same things 

The bar being raised every single second 

With only love being the main aim 

Who knew that loving someone can be a bliss and a bane 

With many people still thinking about the ONE 

the ONE who would open the gates to cupid's paradise 

But do we ever find the one?

Love is always there for us 

Hidden somewhere in this world 

But the only villain being the timing 

And timing is a bitch

There are times when you find love

And even the timing is there with you guys 

That is the love which would last forever 

Looking after eachother, being in there highs and lows

With that bond that is sacred 

Strong till the end would be that love 

Which would last forever 

But what after that 

Will it be there for your kids 

When they grow up 

Would they be able to handle heartbreaks 

Or will they know what it is to live with something that they never have 

Will our kids ever know the meanings of vows 

The feeeling of being loved by someone unconditionally 

As I sit here looking at the ring I gave to my wife 

I would pray for my daughter who now wears the same ring 

To have her chunk of happiness, the same happiness her mother had.
