Symphony of love, death and life

Murky dreams
Dark smiles
Lusty walks
Intense miles
Fishing for happiness somewhere
We got drowned in lies

Contemplation
Anticipation
Making love
Digressing lines
On a café table we have laid them all tonight
And with our hands locked
We gaze intensely
At these pawns of our lives

Take flight
I urge my feelings to take flight
Scribble love on the walls
But do not etch it in my life
I urge all the pawns
To move out of my life

Mirage
Or shadows of light
Dance on the pores of my body…
I race them away
Haunting them with the picture of dying

Scribbled walls
Echo of mystical tales
Pawns move on their own on the table
Weaving a mesh
Locking our lives
