The Incomplete Soul

Salty pearls, yet again, escapes the orbs.

With the heart smiling despite its agony

Maybe my love expresses best through sobs

As words I utter were never some dripping honey


I do know all you give me is hurt and pain

And it's only 'You' that is my cure and heal

Each of my efforts to escape, were all in vain

As our souls are eternally bound by a deal


Every tear drops of mine shed in silence

Are my desperate pleas to let me out of this

While my soul hum and wanders looking for guidance

I did see many signs ahead, but they weren't 'You' whom I miss


Who cares about the long walk, if I would reach you?

All I ask for is an assurance that you're my destiny

I admit to have wavered, but I want us to argue

Not feel abandoned or your warmth vanish in tiny


I know, I look pathetic feeling this despair

I know, love never allowed anyone with their pride

All I have ever prayed was for us to be a pair

And walk down the asile with you, me titled as your bride


But why am I here alone crying in the dark?

Why is it me who is punished for you are still?

The growing insecurity suppressing all of your given spark

My soul to feel dead or alive is the blank for you to fill.
