Heart

Oh, my heart is filled with tears!

And the pain, it no longer can bear.

Tormented, tortured and bruised.

Will it ever come at truce?

I accepted the agony, the pain,

And I cried a thousand nights in vain.

Oh, my heart is filled with tears!

And it will only rest at my death,

I fear.

The Perfect Nightmare

Running, running and running,

Maybe I was running from myself

Or I was running from the world.

It felt I was trapped in a maze,

I couldn’t save myself from other’s gaze.

I was scared as it was new,

My heart was tainted with fear’s black hue.

I ran to the left and to the right

But there was no one to guide.

So, I kept running, running and running.
