ASKING MY KEYS BACK

ASKING MY KEYS BACK

You found the keys to my heart

Unlocked the door walked in.

You dusted off the unused house,

Opened the windows, let it begin.

You set up the gas stove, cooked delicacies.

The aroma of your love, spread throughout.

Crease on the carpet, you straightened.

The ones that had accumulated without.

Then came the night, when you wore the dress

Spread the rose petals, set the bed.

Lights were turned off; it was pretty dark.

Yet, for the first time, my heart glowed bright red.

The house that had never been inhabited,

Was finally full, satisfied, well-fed.

The twist of fate, but, came uninvited

A storm shook up our roots, leaving us bereft.

You turned off the light, closed the windows,

Packed your bags, locked the door and left.

Each time I sent a note your way

The sound echoed back with no effect.

But you still have the keys to my heart.

You left it frothing and hopeful to claim.

The house is still owned by you

Even though it’s not on your name.

So now I’m asking my keys back,

Let someone open the door to the rain.

The void is relentlessly painful.

Let it get inhabited again.

I DON'T LOVE YOU (I JUST LIKE YOU)

I Don’t Love You

(I Just Like You)

Genre : Lyrical

You keep staring

From the corner of your eyes.

You look at me,

While I’m looking away.

When I look back,

You shudder and retreat.

Both of us know

What you are doing.

You drop hints about your love for me.

Come close, egg me into proposing you.

But you can’t make me fall in love.

‘Cause it’s clear that I don’t love you.

I just like your child-like smile,

Your innocent gaze,

Your caught-in-the-act

And then embarrassed phase.

The movement of your hands,

Stealing sights a few,

Giving a side glance,

I just like you.

Your friends,

They know all about this.

They are helping you

Bridge the gap between us.

Trying to get us

Into talking,

Trying to develop

The love that they can’t.

I might try to test the water.

Go close, then hold myself back.

No you can’t make me fall in love.

‘Cause I know that I don’t love you.

I just like your black spects,

Your glad days,

Your showing off

And then shocked face.

The sound of your voice,

The deep red hue

On your swollen cheeks,

I just like you.

No! This is not possible.

Not letting my guard down.

I’m preoccupied with my goals.

Love is the last thing on my mind.

You could climb the stepping stones to my heart,

Only to find a deserted mountain peak.

No you can’t make me fall in love.

It’s sorted out that I don’t love you.

I just like your child-like smiles,

Your innocent gaze,

Your caught-in-the-act

And then embarrassed phase.

Your leather jacket,

Your brown hair too,

Your tied plait,

I just lov---- like you.
