And I Cannot Move On

And there was a time-
I used to think myself so strong,
but no, things got changed,
now I realize-
nothing is constant,
it just took a single bad moment-
a moment to reveal the weaker me,
the wicked me!

And I am living with this-
looking for a pardon and patch up,
and you see how weak I am to get beaten and down by one's emotion,
I am so lost, lost in the motion,
and I cannot move on!

I was lost in the moon,
and dead by nature's tune;

I came by the bridge,
and kept eyes to the ridge;

I looked for my miss,
and I desired for the kiss;

I saw the city is quiet,
and so the end of my wait;

I think I just lost her,
and she has gone forever!

But I am still engulfed,
drowned into that shy smile of hers,
it was the last best thing happened in my life,
it was a killer-
which murdered every bit of mine,
every beat of mine,
and now I am the ghost-
the ghost that does not lose her track,
may be I am the pawn-
the pawn that never stops the walk!

But somehow she too is lost,
now we both are lost,
and I cannot move on!
