by Akshay Raja
I once lived with you
Liked my days and lived as you
Gave my life for my heart that beats
Threw me out like worn out seeds
Never looked back… you’ve left me ‘n’ gone
Passed the days where you’ve shown
At the places where we were to live
Etching our days with joy to give
For this soul doesn’t have a heart to beat
Melts everywhere with you under my sheet(eye)
For you’ve left me and gone for now
Sees me as a passer every now
But this soul can’t think of a day alone
For you’ve showed me a way and grown
To a weed that drinks my blood everyday
Which am happy to give for one more day
When i’ll see the eyes that showed me love
For the soul that left me and gone away now
Isn’t really For, for stays with my eyes
Stays back and makes me cry
May lone i am but may you live in peace
For the further i think… my heart makes me seize.
Thats the things i can lay
For the dreams and thank you long the way
As further i go… you melt my way
For the further i go… the longer you stay!
