Desert Sun

By -
I've been loveless in Lahore
And hopeless in Helsinki
Yet I'm not gonna let go
Of my damsel in Dubai

Tattooed poetry on my skin
Nothing could've masked the pain
Each part burned with the addition of sin
Not sure if I'm in love or insane

Because girl I'm tired of being ignored
Is love fairer than war?
This question keeps beating me at the core
With despair my eyes are sore

Now I've been loveless in Lahore
Still I wasn't bound to be dying there
Because I came upon a lore
That said my sweetheart would be residing here

But girl you just won't admit
When we met a fire was lit
Now we both crave for it
With love metal playing in the background with the utmost pitch

And I don't want any more of this
Desert Sun shimmering on your lips
Taking pictures under Burj Khalifa's silhouette
What a summer of bliss

When the Arabian moon shone on your face
I realized in my life there was a misplacement of grace
An awakening occurred of new taste
Next thing I know the veins of our loneliness became interlaced...

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...
