Perfect, Not Perfect

 

Behind closed doors when the curtain closes,

Too many voices screaming through

A few rooms extend to that of a million losses

All they are obsessed with what was never true;

Stumbling back falling in the globe of fake smiles

Every bit so damn perfect ,never fails to leave cue,

Expectations running ahead a million miles

Leaving to deal with a state of Black and Blue!



Falling back again ,pretending what we never saw

Still making alive through thick and thin

Invisible scratches on the pale skin, they like to draw 

Hiding away from the world, away in the ripped jean.

Perfect ,ever been so damn perfect

Now it's scary to be the odd one out;

Just like the fortune cookies burned beyond baked

Never gets old what the fuss is all 'bout!


That distant world of constant criticism

All they do is judge at the first sight

Breaking up the bars of the good old prison

Who ever returned unstained from such a fight? 

An unhappy generation with  happy pictures

Ashamed of a broken heart hidden behind the laughing face;

An uncanny mixture of the furs and scars

Smiling again from the glam room with glowing lace.


All that seems real of what is truly fake

Perfect images clouded back on the dreamland

Never appearing on what is crystal clear as a lake,

Like playback singers in a band;

Bruised emotionally yet way too strong

Not just to get over with it now

'Cause the issues have grown as big as King-Kong

But to get on with it 'til it gives a bow!

 Yes, I know it's all gone wrong Now I'm left with the broken songs; Instead of fighting all day long, Should have tried to make the sweet times more prolong! We are all tired of masking smiles My dreams look hazy hiding away  Just like a three million more miles I still look away, sighing and lying it's 'kay! No longer an immature teen Expectations in my mind are too keen Wish there was no body to lean The fake moments are never really seen. Eighteen and two long years more, All I think 'bout in my dreams and nightmares Makes my head a bit too sore All of these resembling a miserable bunch of uncertain dares. Counting up the ticks on the to-do list I made Wish I could be skilled enough to get paid Even the hopeful words now seem like a shooting spade! And every time I feel like it's way too much said; Then I'm gushed out of the building of this old city Now I miss that awful evaluation or maybe  Just a random pat on the back rather than pity Is it scary tha...

Lone Light

Lost in the city of star Found the lone glory of the Moon. Away you took your breath at noon, To play in that grave where you are. Often you have me for the walk, Looking in old grass with your feet; Come on the good clear summer street Lest you could hear an earnest knock! Never you had to break the tale, Nor could I choose to measure the time  Neither too close! no sad night-time Around me, lies an old black trail. Wild wanderer, from my past night, Never a star with snow and mist. A light from which I stood a fist Across the blizzard and past the fight. The sun was gold. The snow too gray, Pale as a cloud the morning met; Eyes like a full day in the net, Making all sweet part of this day. View us on Youtube:  Shreya's Poetry Also Check out: Miss Ya
