Ethereal
Our love isn't your matter to discuss about,
whether is fake or real.
Anybody says it or not,
we know its ethereal.
Its more than real but not a full perfection
but no doubt its ineffable,
And a lot more than your"objection".
...Free Palestine
From the river to the sea,
Palestine will be free.
We want no death, we want no violence
But test us once, we won't show tolerance.
We value all lives,
Because all lives matter
We held our courage high,
We won't let it shatter.
Test us one or test us all,
We stand united and we won't fall.
We value the lives no matter he or she,
from the river to the sea
Palestine SHOULD be free!
...Shadow
I smile in,to let you be happy,
While I suffer the sorrow...
I make you feel full when I'm torn into half, when I'm internally hollow...
I let you shine all bright,
and try to light up myself with your brightness, from a smoke turning into a shadow...
...Losing myself
Will you put flowers in my grave
If I die today?
If I get expired on the date of living in this world,
Will anyone remember the times spent with me?
Or will they still ignore my death as they did to me.
I would be sleeping there alone in the darkness hearing to all the cries and all the smirks people would dedicate me.
But I will go quite,
Melting away in the midst of silence forever,
Even if I would have to say a lot of things as response.
Perhaps, I will be suffering inside there too not being able to stand beside my loved ones,
And not being able to wipe their tears.
My body will just rot away with the soil there
And my soul will have to return to its new home...

Changes
Some people change even faster than you thought them to,
Some people turns out to be fake when you thought them true.
Some people go from our lives no matter how long they did stay,
And some stay in forever despite of being faraway.
...Love
I know you're suffering,
and I know I'm too.
I know this epidemic has cast a sad hue,
on the coulours of our happiness,
on the sweetness of your smile,
I know its truly bitter getting distanced,
whether for years or even a while.
...
Attachment
I feel to hold onto you tight,
fight with you all time
and spend merely talking to you the whole night.
Not because I love you,
or nor because I want you
But its like, you could soothe the pains in my heart,
and could heal some wounds of my past.
perhaps, you're the one whoz could give me new memories,
which would ever last...
...Power up your mind
Know that you're wonderful,
if someone points you low.
Know that you're unique,
not a commoner within the flow.
Some people just can't see others being in a better state,
Know; that's the only reason to you for them to underestimate.
Let the haters do their work, so that you could too find your true friends,
just aim towards your success, because through this is what your hater offends!
