You don’t need to go to the park
Late night in the dark
Without a soul near you,
But there are spirits that could haunt you
So before that, lend me your ears
As I say, that I am not to be blamed,
Our end was inevitable
We were pre-destined to break free
To get rid of each other, I did not,
No, No, I did not!
Bang the phone on your ear
Slam the door,
Only for you to disappear
I did not
Tear the piece of poetry,
Which was a proof of our bond,
I did not
Prevent you from whispering our memories
And lastly,
I did not
Desert you in the park,
All alone
And so,
All blame is in vain
You are responsible for your caliginous behavior
You were the one,
Who brought light to my life
And now, you are the one extinguishing it,
Before anyone else,
Would dare to
So I do not want to hear,
Your stories anymore
Kindly,
Keep me away from your blackened soul
For my soul feels lighter than ever
I shall now, stay away,
From you and your miseries
Even if I stumble upon my own.
Even if I burn my soul,
It would be my remedy
For you’re not there anymore
Upon who I could rely
I am the physic to my own soul.
For now I have faith,
In my own wings!
More than you have in yours
And so,
Wherever you shall be
Stay away from me
And don’t tell stories
Just to put the blame on me
