This shall end,just like everything else.
The pieces will crumble,
the pain will fly,
all tears will die,
or so I like to pretend,
that like everything, this too will end.
The butterflies will fly again,
never will flowers feel estranged,
that I will lose track of all my pains,
that one day the traces of tears will vanish,
this thick cloud of doubt would diminish,
I like to believe, I want to pretend,
that like everything, this too will end.
Swimming in deep, murky pools of regret,
my heart, so broken, so tattered, so hurt,
walking amongst the darkest shadows,
the rain gently pelting on my windows,
the settling of dust on my inner core,
the anguish that keeps on getting more,
I want to imagine, I want to pretend,
that like everything, this too will end.
They look at me as I lie there in flowerbeds,
so many pairs of eyes, so many turning heads,
A wagging finger, a clicking tongue,
considered forbidden are the tunes I sung,
a funeral deadlier than the person who lay,
alive in flesh and soul, made of clay,
I want to tell myself, I want to pretend,
that like everything, this life too will end.
