I've got to take a bow

Tope says:

I'm in love with her
but I know there's someone better
better not for me but for her
there's someone out there
that's better than me
someone who's ready to shower her care
who loves her more than love could be
someone who holds her dear
who's ready to face her every fear
I'm in love with her
but my love is behind bars
lock down by a love that's stronger
a love clearly written with stars
And I do not dare contest
cos his will always come out best
How I love her so
but I can't help but to let her go
I know she at least likes me too
but she doesn't have a clue
she doesn't know how strong his love is
his feelings will uproot trees
his heart as strong as a meteor
he loves her to the core
his love is so much more
compared, mine is a bore
I've got to take a bow

April's Fool

Tope says:

April's fool is a fool for only a day
For only the first day of the fourth month
People trick the side of you that's true and gay
They pull on you stupid stunts
But it's only for that one day alone
Do not complain, do not groan
It's a day of celebration and being carefree
When you dump your worries and become a baby
It's April Fool's Day and you just go on
Go on enjoying till all your hindrances are gone
Play like that day when you were born
For truly we're all fools from the start at heart
To worries, be as blind as a bat
For we truly rarely notice what matters
We're like sheep being led to our slaughters
So why don't we just frolic in the gutters?
Why don't we just build castles in muddy waters?
We have more years to work than to relax
This day ,then, why not relinquish the grueling tax?
Why not just lie under the sun and bask?
Why not put the problems away for once, I ask?
It's April Fool's Day and I chuck problems away
On this day, I enjoy and keep tasks at bay.

What do I care?

Tope says:

Why should I care?
cos when I needed you you weren't there
and you just don't dear
to come around and call your dear
cos I swear
You're to me naught but a memory
naught to me to a figment in my story
cos I forget bad memories like you
thinking of them breaks my heart anew
and I cannot face multiple pain
I just do not care to face you
cos what's the gain?
what's the gain in loving you anew?
but to have my heart broken again
what gain would I have?
When you resunder my heart in half
it's only pain tenfold
pain greater than that of old
Why should I want you back?
when you ways are so ugly and dark
Why should I cut you some slack?
When you heart is grotesque and black
the blood in your veins as murky as tar
the thoughts in your mind............
Seeing them could make one blind
Why should I love someone like you again?
when I know my heart'd be slain again
I'd rather let myself be drowned in acid rain
than let myself die by the strangle of your chain

The walking dead

Tope says:

He walks in the midst of the living
but in his being something is missing
he seeks escape from the void in his mind
he's as lonely as a chick left behind
he looks but doesn't see, listens but doesn't hear
cos his mind,his consciousness is elsewhere
he's like a blind man in the lion's den
he takes note but doesn't understand
in times of trouble he doesn't know where to stand
his ignorance is as baffling as it is grand
he cannot differentiate one from ten
he seems never to learn
always the same blunders again and then
he lives like a zombie
no goals,no motives,a non-ambitious trauma
as long as he still takes one step after another
he believes he's become what he can ever be
but he sees the ants,the mosquitoes and bees
always unrelenting, forever industrious
the rats,birds,squirrels he surely sees
so hardworking all of these
he does but doesn't care a floss
he likes his life just the way it is
he looks at himself and loves what he sees

The Glutton

Tope says:

He possesses an insatiable spirit
wishing he had everything in his stomach
an endless,dark ,gastric pit
with no stopper, no seal, no rack
he eats like he's never going to again
in his mind,only edible things reign
in his view, only cuisines are in vogue
against lack of food,he becomes a rogue
he is a selfish uncontented glut
a lazy man with no worth
he doesn't deserve a space among men
for he prefers for them to go hungry
than his stomach to be unfilled then
he prefers to eat than make money

A mad man

Tope says:

He scatters every place
with his trouble and craze
his memory of sanity all erased
he doesn't back down when fazed
his only nemesis is a whip, a cane
in his mind, only insane thoughts reign
a mad man filled with malaise
at the least things, his voice will raise
his mind is an unnavigable maze
of sanity or sincerity, he bears no trace
he cries within himself and giggles outside
the dimension of his madness,so vast,so wide
as insanity's stallion gives him a jolly good ride

Eating me inside-out

Tope says:

As I lay me down
I think of my woes and I groan
my heart skips at the sight of him
and seeing us together
all is well it would seem
but really, things have gone helter-skelter
as my mind has been for a long time
my peace of mind isn't even worth a dime
cos my emotions war with each other
slowly causing me murder
I feel pain, I feel hatred
I feel emotions that make my eyes go red
I'm killing myself softly
like clumsy Humpty Dumpty
breaking up from the inside
love waring with loathing in its stride
I'm burning from inside out
and I hear my heart's mournful shout
my being cries out in agony
as my blood cells commit felony. DH3¥

Never again

Tope says:

I've vowed today
never to give my heart away
I shall never fall in love again
I will never hurt myself in vain
for what is love but a pin-prick to the heart?
what are women but troublesome gnat?
their only reason on earth been reproduction
Living life with a woman is an option
and I prefer not to
cos I cannot feel pain anew
I cannot suffer my heart at their hands again
I prefer to be a lonely but happy man
than let my sanity painfully wan
forget about a dip in the fountain of Lur
Cos even the after-effect of the is a bore
I want total peace of mind like a monk
not a life that stinks like a skunk
I'll love me and me alone
no carnal thoughts, no female, no missing bone
Only me worrying about myself
The art of romance is not again for me to delve
Never again will I fell anything for ladies
Never again shall I reap loves bitter wages
may they all rot in the depth of Hades. DH3¥

Just pull the trigger

Tope says,

I stand here with no where to go

staring at you pointing the gun so

pointing it at me, ready to end my life

I know all I've put you through, the strife

how you loved me with all your heart

how I played you like ball on a bat

how I put your emotions in turmoil

your feelings simmering in let-down's oil

How you wanted me so much

that you forsook everything you owned

how you held me in a romantic clutch

I didn't know your thoughts were honed

I wish I knew as much

Everytime I cheated on you

you saw what was inevitably true

You saw that I wasn't really in love

and some of your advances turned me off

You knew that you couldn't have me

that what you wished couldn't be

Now you stand in my front

saying words so hurtful and blunt

Cos I cannot give you what you want

Now you've made it into a battle

one much greater than my mettle

And you seek my end in it's heat

Alas, I'm ready; just get it over with

I say it again one time another

just go on and pull the trigger.

I want to be cleansed

Tope says,

As I sit in this gathering,

listening to the words of God,

I've got this unending yearning.

To be cleansed of this worldly mud,

to be excused from the dirt of sin

and filtered of sin as it's been.

My heart cries for eternal salvation

my body needs complete purification

for I want to be in God's presence

and in His presence, sin is nonsense

I want to sit at His right hand

where around me angels shall stand

singing,''holy is the name of the Lord''

their voices as sharp as a  million swords

cutting through the devil's hordes

and making true God's word.

I want to be cleansed say I

so as to be with The Most High
