adore you

what a waste that i know all your sweet spots
now what am i to do with that information?
you'll hand it down to someone else
and make it their temporary privilege too
why must you make me privy, in such detail
that all my designs now make no sense, with this abrupt end
they were for you, for none other
crafted with patience and hunger at the same time

let me replace your face with someone else's
let me kiss with my mouth another neck
let me trace another spine, another day in another life
in time i'll forget the honeydipped taste of yours
like i forgot of the ones before you
one day, i'll forget also, how to adore you

Victim of your habit

Wings weren't given to me so I could fly too close to the fire
desire wasn't supposed to burn me the way it finally transpired
Always dodging bullets and cannons of your flippant lust
I'm requesting you to employ a little tact, if you must.

You're the firecracker of the 4th of July
Shine bright for a fleeting moment, only to leave me high and dry
What's left of you in my mind is some awe and debris
and little traces of what I think looks like memories.

When you can’t decide whether it’s all or nothing

You bait me in, with the taste of a little something

I’ve been there too many times before, to think it a gambit

Please don’t come around again
and make me a victim of your habit

Please don’t make me a victim of your habit

The night, oh nights, I fear the most
you come around softly rattling the doors
the bulbs they're swinging, the wind is singing
they join your cacophony, now we're two forces at war
but I've no choice but to surrender to you like a helpless whore.

So when you can’t decide whether it’s all or nothing

You bait me in, with the taste of a little something

I’ve been there too many times before, to think it a gambit

Please don’t make me a victim of your habit

If distraction is all you need

There’s the world at your feet

Many a nubile mind will gladly let you inhabit

So why make me a victim of your habit?
Please don’t make me a victim of your habit.

A clarification, because.

Most of the times I write here to clear my head or to know exactly what I feel about a particular topic, because I have to jot it down, read, re-read and even change my opinion as I talk to myself. I publish it because I want to know what others think. And I wouldn't know if my view is broad or narrow till you, the reader, express yourself with your knowledge and opinions.

If I've ever offended anyone intentionally or unintentionally, I beg for your apology. This stands for future posts as well :) Thanks for reading. Do keep commenting; it helps.
