Symmetry

Listen carefully what I'm about to say
There’s seven billion complexities running around
Not one of them hits high degrees of fascination
Quite like you
Verily my affection for you will become the death of me

There’s tall towers collapsing in my ribcage
My heart is on its last legs
My tangled feet found freedom but my fingers are fester and fragile
I'm a hot solid ball of indifference, a field of work
But your fetishing on a failed opportunist that’s fragile

Don’t touch me, I’m too dangerous to fall in love with
I admire the novels you've in your eyes
I'm curious to wonder through the renaissance of your mind
What a coincidence we share similar likes and dislikes
Even though we’re far removed from age
From religion, from walks of life

My love life is a burning mosque, it’s a holy mess
You just happen to be the most intriguing soul I’ve come across lately
Lately people enter and exit out of my life like it’s nothing
My energy is so precious and the energy you exude is comforting



Listen
I don’t want to exercise chances, sell you a dream
Let you in on my premises
Save some expensive time and delete me from your conscious
You can never understand me I'm skin deep

Relationships are not a sport, I'm not in a rush or competing for image
You’re soo nice, possibly could attract soo many
The sky is open for you but as for me
I'm a working formula
Battling laziness to get to where I need to get too
See everyone is out for themselves and at the moment I'm selfish
I don’t want you because the time says I can’t accommodate you

Listen
Please don’t take this the wrong way
My friend zone isn't a neglection, it’s a reflection of who I can trust
All our generation cares about is lust
Friend zone is not the end of the world
And you deserve all the happiness in the world
Was it on twitter that we met?

I'm happy just being on my own
Working to figure this all out on my own
You’re actually the perfect person but the timing is wrong
Symbolizing a later stage in my life where I want to be with the mentality I’m on

Scared of Beautiful/ Drunk in Poetry Part 2

In the name of Poetry
Can I Shakespeare in your ear until you shed a tear?
It’s dumb waiting for perfection
When these moments could be timeless

You’re a lover and an insomniac
I can smell it when I look at you
Is there another side of you?
Leaking from a corner or down to the bone

I want to know your flaws and your fears
And what keeps you up at night
And the colour of your soul as it emerges with mine

You are the enigma that makes perfect sense to me
I’m about to crack the code to understanding you
I keep turning the numbers on your heart in hopes of finding
The perfect combination but I got
Too impatient so I used an axe instead

I want you to know you can pour your pain in me
Whenever you feel the weather is against you
I want you to know I’m here to stay as long as you want me to

If my words can get you aroused
Imagine what my hands can do?

Tell me why are you so afraid of falling?
Do you know in my two hands accommodates the world?
World of romance, I’m like a Greek god
I find poetry in the way your lips lock with mine
I find poetry in the way you walk like you’re so assertive of the destiny
That lies ahead of you
I find poetry in the chaos you’ve been caught up in

I could sit here for 700 years just with you in silence
There is no hesitation in my mind,
You’re the valentine I’ve wished so long to find

Maybe I’m just overwhelmed by this
But maybe I’m not
I’m not really a poet, but there’s a poet that lives inside of me

With soo much love to give to you

Lion's Ambition

Nobody knows my struggle
I juggle universes in my palms
My iris is packed with sorrows for my tomorrows
My lungs are as black as death; my heart is as hot as a phoenix
I hold fists of hope and hustle with a lion’s ambition

I wish my faith was golden, the devil is a diamond
When I dig out my past, all I see is sins disguised as crystals
I only have two options, to roar or to run
I could stun beauty and spark a lightning connection with miracle watts

Magnet to a manmade mask of materialism
I’m losing Dickens by the minute
I’m Simba and Mufasa intertwined in one
Just penetrated literature, produced poetry, a baby
The chosen one

Young soul in a strange world
Finding jigsaws, solving puzzles
I can barely crack a smile, too Makaveli for pain
If your mind was written, how painful would your pages be?

I’m from the western, born to learn and earn
Burn a few bridges, time throws away temporary forevers
Quantum physics couldn’t tell you about my life
Strategically I have set to shock the status quo
Mathematically I’m doomed in this white man’s world

The wolves lead the sheeps; I’m a lion in the jungle
To drown in perseverance is what I need
Itinerant and scuttling in a situationship
808s and heartbreak, I’m too Kanye for a relationship
Destiny is stepping out of line, my days are clearly not fine wine

It feels like I’m living in my last adventure
I wrestle clouds every night, my confidence fell down a flight of stairs
I’m a man that died twenty years ago resting inside the soul of a soldier
With an eagle eye for success

And a lion’s ambition
