With or Without You



My heart is right but my words are wrong
With a confused mind i make them songs
and yet, what do i do?
I woke up late to greet the morning
Why oh heart, didnt you heed the warning?
I am lost without you

Bring out the spears and tear my heart
Hurt my wounds and split it apart
I surrender to you
Tie me up and hang me by my neck
Shoot me down, just kill my rage
Let me die before you

I can't live if you are gone
But if you are gone then you have won
I can't hold you back
In this city, i sleep alone tonight
With your dreams i have to fight
My life's been painted black

Days of our lives have come to an end
I crumble to dust,i turn into sands
And your eyes still haunt me
I am weak, i know and you are strong
I knew it was coming, i knew it all along
So now i lie down to thee...


P.S having one of those rare mood swings....one after many many months...so just bear with me

  4. I choose my word with difficulty like never before
    I speak with a guilt, unaware, unsure,
    And yet, what do I do?
    I lie down awake, with night around
    Building hopes, knowing I am wrong
    Still I want you back,

  8. I am curious whether is this inspired with any personal incidents or somthing..?

    because I am huge fan of amything dark and raw..and this poem was Just about that...!

    Nice blend of words..and nice ...umm..word play..! ( i wanted to say movie..but this is a write up for gods sakes. Even the word 'word-sequence ' didnt sound appropriate for this beautiful poem..)

    keep it all the way up..may be in the stars..:-P
