Love, don't come to me again
False smiles eschew
Love, don't poison me again
Don't bring deaths anew
World's a wide open space
I'll walk away
Wander at will in wilderness
A hundred miles a day.
Love, don't hold me close again
Grant me respite
Love, don't burn me up again
For your delight
Life's a beauteous place
I'll drown in new hues
Come afloat once more
In emeralds and blues.
Everyday I hear them say
That didn't really happen
You got it wrong
It's all in your head
Understand, come along
You misintepret
It's pretty simple, youknow
Your life is kept in control
it helps you grow
Expiriences you speak of
They never hurt you
You're weak, it's unsafe
Not too bright to boot
et you demand rights
Give up this useless fight
We say your on a pedastal
That should suffice
You have your roles laid out
Mother and wife
Yet you insist you'll break free
Cross that magic ine
Believing you are harmed
That thought's not worth a dime
Just take it easy
Sit back, enjoy
We're there to think your thoughts
Never despair.
I hear I;m dangerous
At least you say so
I wonder what kind!
For dangers are varied
Am I the one that lurks
An ambush ready to spring
Attacking the unwary
A gorilla attack
Or one that crashes head on
Not a thought in mind
A wham and a crash
Stunning the mind
May be I'm more devious
the Janus head type
A foe garbed as friend
Oce well loved, now abhorred
Could I have a different style
Unique, you could say
So I stand by you, yet you're afraid
And I drive you away.
Asifa, we beseech you
Do not fade away
Make us drink our tears
Let our ears ring with your screams
May our senses imbibe your pain
Our beings tremble with your terror
Maybe, just maybe
That will rouse dead souls
Maybe, just maybe
That will penetrate stupor
So that we pick up
Blood stained stons
That bludgeoned you
To hurl them back
To make you the new Sati
To begin a new dance
Our own Tandava.
Asifa, it was your age
To play with dolls
To run and skip
To imbibe the world;
They turned you into a rag doll
Grabbed and kicked
Your blood they spilled
To fulfill filthy aims:
Your screams mingled
With their chants
O may this give birth
To voices filled with rage
Asifa, dont't fade away
Stay behind, show us the way.
What Hell is this?
Why do I live here?
My soul ever burning
My limbs stone cold
What sin do you chastise?
That I loved too much
That I loved too pure
Loved without restraint
Submerged myself
In your dreams.
Flesh and blood sucked
Hollow shell you discard
Neither cremated, nor buried
Disowned, thrown to wolves.
Beware! Beware!
I am living Death
Death I have conquered
My life untouched by Time
I live on beyond your bounds
And the day you venture forth
This scepter will rise
Devouring your safe built tower.
