Poems

Crucify me
Nullify me
Rectify me
I can't finish the crusade I began

In my mind I fought a battle with everything I found
In reality I am hiding underground

Crucify me
Nullify me
Rectify me
I can't finish the crusade I began

Tell the soldiers of my sins and my remorse
Hang me on the crucifix
Till I yield the things I yearn
Keep me in the holy land until my soul is burned

Crucify me
Nullify me
Rectify me
I can't finish the crusade I began

Use the whiplash on me, till the city turns crimson
Stretch me to the breaking point
Till my deeds are undone
Tie me to the chariots and drag me to the hell

Crucify me
Nullify me
Rectify me
I can't stop the feelings sparking in my head
I can't finish the crusade I began
Symphonies unsung!

--------------------------------------------------------------

You're the only thing that
Scares me more and more everyday
I know that I saw it coming
But I launched forward anyway
A simple mistake
And it will haunt me my whole life

What have I done?
It's too late for that
I must move forward anyway

God knows that I am very sorry
To those, for whom I have wronged
If only I could change the things
I promise I'd do anything you ask
A simple thing or an impossible task
Truth is, no one knows that
I have tried everything
From the scientific theories
To the urban legends

What have I become?
It's too late for that
I must move forward anyway

Death of a star!

I watched the folks in a jewellery store, gaping at the gold led before. They smiled and awed at the shining gold, and wondered why. Unaware, ignorant of the fact that it once shone brightly in the sky. In order for us to live, A star must die! The sun, the moon, the planets and asteroids, including    the earth where we reside. Once shone brightly in the sky. In order for us to live, A star must die! The air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the life we love, and the death we fear, it’s possible because  it  died. The things we love each other for to the gold we kill each other for, once brightly shone in the sky. In order for us to live, a star must die! A star that lived before us, brightly shone in the sky. It still shines brightly, as us, now that it has died. In order for us to live, a star must die! A star must die!       ...

Note: This is a prologue of a short story that I have to write. I need suggestions on sentence formation, grammar and writing style, so feel free to criticise.  'I must reach the sun', I thought looking at the hundreds of glistening pieces of our beloved star. A giant fireball cut into pieces by the icy ocean. My body went numb to save me from dying. But for how long? The funny thing about our sophisticated human body is that, when it's submerged into water at subzero temperature; the blood is withdrawn from our limbs and torso then sent to our brain to save it from dying. But the only possible way for it to survive is to get out of the water. So how can it survive if the body is numb and unmovable? How can I? But I have to live. I must live. I must reach the sun. My body craves for oxygen; I have to breathe. I must move. I must reach the sun.                     ***
