Countless are the times I tried to reach you

Slipped from my hands when I touched slow

Took a little long to know you were playing through

And it seems you are doing well than I do.

I tried going ahead knowing that I am a million miles behind

But it didn’t take you long to trick me back to the start

Revenge was the only thing to hold myself up

Just to find that you could push me down in a snap

So I tried to pay you back

But looks like you turned away, leaving everything, everyone

The feelings I had first

All together curled up my fist

I began the search again

In the darkest of blacks and the brightest of whites

In the highest ups and the lowest downs

Nowhere to be found, I let myself to drown

I Found myself screaming my heart out

Locked up in a dark room, cursing it all

Didn’t realise your presence until the lights came

I teased me, to forget that you were good at the game

I let out my anger and frustration

You just stood there smiling

You knew that the words I said were serious

But, it seems they didn’t make you furious

When calmness overtook me,

You came over, still that smile fresh on your face

And said that I looked everywhere except the right place

I refused to agree to it, still believing in me

But the answer you gave shut me down lifeless…..

That, I have searched everywhere except in myself
