FOR TRISTAN Standing at the stone cold hallway Looking at the unfamiliar people passing by My attention was focused on you... scrutinizing Your gait, like top models do New days arrived and again As I glanced furtively The face of yours was as white Like snow in the wintertime The lips of yours were as pink As the petals of roses in bloom My sky, darker than black Was filled with twinkling stars The moaning moon learned to smile Even a rainbow added with extra hues Of silver and gold appeared during those nights Posh? No you were not Still - I liked you You were the one who stultified me I felt and bore the pain Yet a love was locked inside my heart Suddenly, I was ready to subvert the things The rules and the like this world Has formulated since the dawn of time To the hegemonic order you all suck! Though you were my mere illusion I wished I was gifted with a magic My fantasy would had transformed into reality then My friend had commented - obsession! But did the world know why I felt such? And before the finale comes, Revelations should be unleashed Realization struck me greater Than the fiercest force of lightning With the deafening roar of thunders River of tears began to flow out from my eyes The same genre both you and I belong A million times I asked myself why But the answers were not written in the stars Not even in the midst of the crystal ball The whole world might condemn me yet My heart still insists to love you... But everything has its own beginning Its ending would inevitably come Sure as the sun rises in the east And in the late afternoon sets in the west.
