The Warm Pocket’s Own
When your pocket is warm,
you’ll see a fair of affection all around.
But when your pocket runs empty,
you’ll find no one nearby,
you won’t find anyone at all in that hour.
Dissolved
You’ve got exactly what you wanted,
I know you’re very happy today.
So happy that,
you don’t even have time to think!
No time to feel,
like the grains of sand stuck to your skin after the journey ends —
the one you brushed off from your life,
has turned into a life dissolved in your path.
Rootless
One person can’t change the color of love,
the other changes their entire color instead.
Believe me, the one who plants the root called “trust,”
is the same one who cuts it off when their need is done.
Fate
You promised,
we would build a home together.
Yet you broke that promise deliberately,
and I went on calling it my fate.
Wants Someone Else
The one who always compares you to others,
who wishes you looked like someone else,
has probably tangled with you by mistake.
But in truth, that person isn’t yours,
they never wanted you,
they wanted someone else.
Baseless
You said you’d stay, but you didn’t.
Yet I believed your words so deeply,
that I told the whole world,
you’re mine, only mine.
Now, after you’ve left, I stand in the world without a base,
neither I nor my words hold any worth anymore.
The Human Mind
The reason behind sadness is the mind itself.
It desires the impossible things,
and when those are not fulfilled,
that’s when it begins to ache.
The Unspoken Storyteller
I’ll keep waiting this way,
perhaps without ever letting you know.
I’ll tell your story to everyone, yes I will,
but who you are, who that worshipper of deceit is, who this storyteller,
that I’ll never reveal.
All I Wanted
All I wanted was to grow old together,
to spend a lifetime side by side,
and even death, I wished it came within our love.
Say you couldn’t be mine, we couldn’t stay together!
Then just plant a flower by my grave in your name,
so I can still sense your fragrance, that’s all I ever wanted.
Humiliation
I could be neither a loyal dog to a master,
nor a master worthy of a dog.
I gave everything I had to people,
and still found no gratitude there,
no one ever did anything for me.
All I’ve got left are failure and humiliation.
