Salamander

Life hides chances,
Time steals deliberately

The days, the weeks, the months
The years, I fear
Are falling away from me

But I am Salamander
Regenerating continuously

Sever a finger,
With your razor blade words
And I watch it regrow,
Salamander

Hold my hand,
Lose it in your heart,
Another starts to form,
Salamander

My lizard like eyes writhe
Around this life, spying
The truths and the lies,
Salamander

My skin spots everything
In your chameleon disguise,
I am old, I am wise,
Salamander

But steal my heart?
I am only a man,
I am only vertebrate
Salamander

Do you think you can be
All that you can be?
I am trying so hard, so tragically
Salamander

Cloud

I'm not the cloud with the silver lining. I'm not the cloud that's loved by sun. I'm the cloud that's there at night. I'm the cloud that's purpose is done. I'm not the cloud that gives you shade.

A Fragment Of Mirror

I'm tiny and broken, Lethal and sharp. As deadly as a viper, As soft as a harp. The inner self revealer, The reflection of you. An incomplete mirror, A mirage thats true.

It takes a whole lot of us to get ahead, to wake up everyday not thinking of the past, to realize that what we are doing is absolutely the right thing..

Scars

You look at me like I'm out of place. The deep scars that haunt my face are staying. The ambition to live is dying, blowing out like a candle in the wind.

Change

My deep roots of foundation, Ripple with anticipation, The ground is shaking, Perhaps in awakening.
