Nightfall


A last sunbeam, white as light
    in an ocean of blue sky receding

For I bear a pain, getting harder, becoming worse

As he bends on trembling knees, o why, I know 
    the competition never stops, rivalry never ends

For I wear that hurt, growing louder, getting worse

It's in the gut, it's an ache, it chokes, I retract, still it is here
    and when the night falls, and all there is, is me, and it spins
        my head, searching for the how and why, of triumph and loss
            of half defeat, whereas life drifts souls apart, love will persist
                our lips resist and will not swallow, the bitterness of the note 

For I bear a pain, getting harder, becoming worse

A pang hits the heart, and, it strikes even harder
    still he moves forward, takes whatever that is left 
        and in a wink it explodes, detonades in my head
             as he craves for an answer, yet it never comes
                jumping and spinning round, the eyeballs whirl

For I wear that hurt, growing louder, getting worse

And where's the sun hiding now
    covered in that sheeted sorrow
        sit next to me and speak in half
            sentences, clouded by dusty air,
                repeated, and time will not pass

For I bear a pain, getting harder, becoming worse

As when the night falls, life's darkening
    shady is this solitude, all there is, is me
        for my head it spins, searching for how
            and why, as there are no winners even
                when there are no losers, in half defeat

For I wear that hurt, growing louder, getting worse

And where our lips will resist and will not kiss
    life's bitterness, our eyes drown in each other 

For I bear a pain, getting harder, becoming worse

And while it's love that can break us up
    it's love that will persist, it will continue

                                                 it will continue.......

PS.
I just wish someone could write the right
notes on music sheet and sing this song

Melancholically.
