I chanced on mystery
A gorgeous black skinny girl
Her hair is blonde
Her face is pretty
With a lot on her mind
She does the unthinkable
Opens up to a stranger
Mysteries need unravelling
But this one is an experience
She’s cold at summer
And warm at winter
A tad too wild
Needs a little bit of taming
One day we will get there
You burn the bridge
And ask why I don’t visit
I’ll walk the other way
And let time make you a memory
I never made you
Never could cut through you
Your core is a rock
The facade? Just an icing
I dug for the diamonds
And kept churning out dust
I reached for the skies
But just a shooting star
Unfathomable? Unattainable?
Maybe, just unreachable
I could whisper between the distance
But you defined you’re distant
I did, I do, I will
But this cross, I can’t bear
I am no savior
Just another lost soul
Dear Zeus,
She called me. Said a lot of nice things about you. She also told me how much she misses you. But I told her this
He found a lover in you
But you saw just another game
He was no fool
But you brought him close
He was a bear, and you tamed him
You stood him up every now and then
Like it was your stock of trade
He kept calling and hoping
Just so you could see beneath his beautiful
But your pride was more than the pride
You left your cub unattended
Your name never left his lips
But you’d die before they saw you with him
He would have followed you to the edge of the atlas
I know, for it was you or nothing
But you wouldn’t let him in
You kept him in the dark
I had a dream
And he was there for you
He wanted to take your place
He wanted to die in your stead
He wanted to see you live
All he needed was to spare him a glance
You denied him flowers
When he had sunshine
Why plant roses
Now that the sun will shine no more
The dead don’t need your love
Let him be in peace
For he found a lover in the earth
And they are one now
Away from your prying eyes
Safe from your cold heart
Your brother,
Demi-God.
