I thought i willed all my feelings away
i thought melancholy had suffocated my heart away
i thought i erased all the footprints from my mind
but here i am
trapped inside your forbidden aura
and i am drowning in an ocean pouring with crimson regret
if i shed a thousand tears and truly unveil all my pain
instead of hiding it beneath my shell of perfection
would you care to take another moment’s look?
or would you take my presence as one in vain
if only my feelings were like the sweet scent of a rainy day
that lingers through the air for some time
then swiftly withers away.
