Rewind

Sat on the bench,
a bit drenched,
looking back,
of what he lost track,
mind full of sorrow,
there was nothing left to borrow.
~ Mansi Gupta.

What did you think, it wasn't over on that drink.
~ Mansi Gupta.

Her smile he treasures, her absence he measures.
~ Mansi Gupta.

Same song

Looking ahead,
losing their heads,
with things set on,
that same song,
it was difficult to move on.
~ Mansi Gupta.

Strange

She fought,
as she thought,
she could change,
something that was strange.
~ Mansi Gupta.

They introduced war in order to attain peace.
~ Mansi Gupta. 

In the will to achieve,  they were ready to decieve.
~ Mansi Gupta. 

Depths

In so much chaos,

 there he was,

you took a glance, 

gave him a chance,

you give in your all,

thinking you won't fall,

but you were just a joke,

after all he spoke,

you took the wrong step,

the one that was in the depths.

~ Mansi Gupta. 

And at the end the only thing that matters, is the shadow which was right by you when your light was dim.
~ Mansi Gupta

It is not a sin, if we play to win.

~ Mansi Gupta

Mirror

That mirror,
what terror,
unable to recognize,
he was in disguise,
looking through it,
unable to fit,
its edges had rust,
with a little bit of dust,
a reflection unclear,
a world full of fear.
~ Mansi Gupta

Call

She felt like home,
after a real long run,
it was like a dome,
protected from the sun,
she finally got what she wanted,
without getting ranted,
she couldn't say goodbye,
she could definitely not lie,
she wanted to hold it tight,
away from the light,
she gave away the hand,
to reach a far off land,
she could feel it all,
she wasn't ready for the call.
~ Mansi Gupta

Game

Eyes filled with water,

charm ready to slaughter,

as she broke the chain,

it began to rain,

as she clutched her fist,

all she could see was mist,

changed the pace of the game,

things were never the same.

~ Mansi Gupta

Gate

He had left it all,
he wasn't quiet tall,
walking through the gates of hell,
yet no one could ever tell,
sand burning his tiny feet,
pushing himself through the heat,
the 'Angel' would be with him they said,
but 'Satan' was in his head,
Silence he said to his thoughts,
as they fought,
eyes turning red,
he could never lay in bed.
~ Mansi Gupta

Fall.

That same old,

which you once thought was gold,

it felt like summer,

but then you heard them mummer,

life gave you a twist,

like a punch from a fist,

at first you had it all,

but you weren't aware of the fall.

~ Mansi Gupta

Reckless dream

He saw her tender feet,
thought of what she had said,
when they once lay on the sheet,
now it was bursting his head,
he remembered what they had,
grabbed her neck,
a part of him wrecked,
with every little scream,
he fulfilled his dream,
struggling for air,
there was nothing left to bare,
with a little peace,
he was on his knees.
~ Mansi Gupta

Mask

It had been long,
since she heard that song,
it was always on rewind,
talking about it wasn't divine,
she knew that the past,
didn't long last,
and as the mask fell,
she could tell,
it was better to be lost,
than being someone's almost.
~ Mansi Gupta.

Sober

Nothing was making sense,
it was all so dense,
everything was a question,
 nothing was in motion,
a dry land,
stuck in the sand,
it was over,
she was not sober.
~ Mansi Gupta.

Drunk

We like to get drunk,

when our boat has sunk,

want to get high,

when we don't even have five,

a funny story is just a part,

it doesn't even relate to start,

we start with cheers,

and end with tears.

~ Mansi Gupta.

Red

Terror couldn't be dealt,

fear was all she felt,

staring at the wall,

shadows growing tall,

everything was red,

except for the bed,

drops on the floor,

a knock on the door.

~ Mansi Gupta.

Sight

"Stay with me" he said,

her eyes were turning red,

clenched him tight,

she was loosing sight,

her head on his hand,

laying on a barren land,

all of his fears,

turned into tears,

a silent scream,

a ruined dream.

~ Mansi Gupta
