Seeing Stars

By -
In the night sky
All the Stars lie
Where is her constellation?

My eyes are dry
From tears that I always cry
Whenever I am in anticipation

Dear Lord,
Let me meet my long-lost lover one last time
Dear Lord,
Let me treat her with romance one last night

Love is a two-day holiday
But what is relaxation without desire?
Depict us in a portrait as it can never age
Our devotion will not cast a shadow on the world, but rather, a fire

My universe is colorless
Without her touch
Her amour is regularly absent
Provoking me to be hurt

In the night sky
All the Stars lie
Where is her constellation?

My eyes are dry
From tears that I always cry
Dear Lord, please take away this tingling sensation

With the instruments of my temptation
I play a sad melody
Fervor is just a minor distraction
That draws out the emotions of anybody

As the believer spends their nights in repentance
I spend mine in vain
My personal life feels like a death sentence
But before dying I wish to see you again...

Lahore Vampires

By -
Dark-brown eyed beauties Giving you signals for the night Long silky-brunette haired cuties Leaving you tongue-tied Faces with a white glow Black eyeliner on their eyes They never take it slow But who would believe my lies? From all that I know There are Vampires in Lahore Not mentioned in any folklore But from all that I know They feast on your blood Pit feelings never kept aside None of your words they have understood Now check your neck's side That is If you're still alive One teeth-gritted kiss And your life has more than died You are now the undead And amour is eternal Though if you trust a Lahore Vampire after you are dead The end will assuredly be infernal...

Dreamer Deceived

By -
The end is near For every lover But they do not fear Now they will run for cover But I dread you Mistook you for a dream In the mist I had seen you Walking on a stream I am a Dreamer My mind can create any scene I never wished to leave her She was my actual dream Still you persisted Calling me to insanity I, as a Dreamer, resisted Yet you dragged me into reality So what you were A miracle rarely seen And as a Dreamer I got Deceived by a dream...
