Being surrounded by love
can spoil a mind
like it did mine
br
it flew away like a dove
silk wings white
taking gentle flight
BR
and so then i was lost
gone was dignity
and i came to be
BR
lonely, didn't know the cost
of a remark
jokingly stark
BR
and so there was me
expectant of
what i thought love
BR
and hence i wanted liberty
freedom from here
life no more dear
BR
just like a morbid stranger
it all came in
having commited sin
BR
surrounded by invisible danger
the spoilt mind
not one of a kind
BR
days of tense confusion pass
trying to mole
out of a hole
BR
hope this time will be the last
rebecome the idol
and come from being idle
BR
entering the world of my own mind
on the pain chariot
not able to parry it
BR
forgetting those i left behind
dragging you along
you who do no wrong
BR
you who i call my angel
with the wings
tied by string
BR
trying not to be but failing
being yourself
nobody else
BR
feels like life's inpaling
strong upon my soul
spiraling out of control
BR
and i let you go; you fly away
like the bug i caught the other day
and i know i'm totally alone
when you're not there to throw a bone
and my spoiled soul has gone to waste
love, i realize, was not the case
