SIlent Night Hymn #10 - Echoes

By zeidalqadri
she's getting further,
she's moving further,
off beyond my reach,
i used to smell flowers.

i'm going deeper,
i'm pushed deeper,
and i'm barely hearing,
the questions to my answers.

there're plenty to be told,
not much are bold,
Her Highness couldn't care enough,
none could be sold.

it's falling apart,
it's rumbling hard,
the hope of the states,
on a house of cards.

Silent Night Hymn #9 - 9

By zeidalqadri
how can i take you off my mind,
when you turned me into a blind,
when suffocation turns out to be something so fine,
when every path looks like a straight line.

how can i take you off my mind,
when you turned me upside-down in every kind,
when an honest smile on my face
is not a luxury hard enough to find,
when i'm in haven sans any wine.

how can i take you off my mind,
when the only number i can think of is nine.

Silent Night Hymn #6 - High

By zeidalqadri
I was strolling in the sky,
And I wonder
How she could fly me this high,
To the place where,
Nothing of anything i fared,
Is anywhere near the bar,
I know,
Had them all by far.

So I sit and sip the coffee,
I know it's a journey,
And nothing comes for free,
But this fear of not knowing,
What the future is going to bring,
Is inviting a greater suffering,
For if it's going to rain,
I don't know if I can contain,
The state of being in such pain.

I made my stand,
Don't know how it's going to end,
The hope's for the best,
We'll celebrate and have a fest,
Too bad if it's not going to go through,
Life is never easy,
Proven to be terribly cruel.

I've never been at this altitude,
And I know for a fact,
Those eyes are worth a fight,
And no one's going to make it feel this good.

Silent Night Hymn #8 - Another Leaf On The Tree

By zeidalqadri
O how silly it could be,
when you're just another leaf on the tree,
as green as others,
nothing about you matters.

O how dull does it sound,
when you're just another jewel on the crown,
as glittering as the rest,
nothing makes you the best.

O how suffocating is the beat,
when you're just another man on the street.

Silent Night Hymn #7 - The Pursuit

By zeidalqadri
so what do i do now?

should i just sit tight and chill,
without knowing how it's gonna make me feel,
or if it's gonna get me killed,
because my mind's a machine in a mill,
asking myself whether it's real,
this thing i used to call a sure-deal.

the silent night hymn shouldn't make one suffer,
although it could be taking a bit longer,
before i can be pretty sure,
that the sky's totally clear,
for the fireworks to light up the atmosphere.

let this pursuit takes its toll,
to those around me, to my body, to my soul,
nothing's too dear for you, my gold,
you gotta beat me harder for me to fold.

if this is an obsession,
i'd rather regard it a passion,
and i don't run away from a mission.

so what do i do now?
i gotta get to you somehow.

Silent Night Hymn #5 - The Interlude

By zeidalqadri
so it's time to say goodbye,
to tell i'm fine with it would be a lie,
but this should not be the end of everything,
and for that i shall not cry,
it could be the start of something,
something i have to reach for,
even if i have to fly.

i really wish i'll get to see you more soon,
'cause i'm gonna miss the feeling,
when you flew me to the moon,
forgive me for being late at times,
and the things i did wrong,
i can't wait to ride with you again,
and we'll together sing another song.

Silent Night Hymn #4 - Infinity

By zeidalqadri
for the most exciting fortnight i ever had,
and how mind-boggling your acts seemed to be,
and how your gaze stopped my heart,
so hold my hand, rest on my shoulder, baby,
they have been yours since i first saw you, lady.

for how frustrating your rejections have been,
although i believe you just couldn't make it,
and how your voice were so mean,
it sounded so sweet,
i didn't mind if these ears bleed.

for how pulsating life seemed to become,
when i found how fine you are,
and how time stopped every time you hummed,
to the songs we listened together in the car,
i can still hear them even when you're far.

for how hard it's going to be when you are away,
and how it's going to make me live in fear,
for not saying the things i should've said,
it won't stop here,
it shouldn't stop here.

for how i tried to make up for lost times,
and for how regretful i am,
who was so naive not to notice,
the dream i should've grabbed in my fist,
far, far earlier than this.

life is too short for me to wonder,
how our commonalities will make me suffer,
so come to me darling, show me your signs,
should i take your hands and not acting like a blind,
and be the happiest chap knowing that you're mine.

it won't stop here, it shouldn't stop here,
'cause to me the end is far from near,
so i'm sending this out for you to hear,
and i'm gonna make it loud and clear,
just how bad it feels when i miss you, dear.

Silent Night Hymn #3 - The Light

By zeidalqadri
good night now my soothing light,
tomorrow is going to be another sight,
grace me in my dreams, my dearest darling,
think of me when you are shivering,
from the stinging cold and your slightest fright,
i will be coming, comforting with my mightiest might.

grace me in my dreams, my shining sun,
for without you in one, i would rather have none.

Silent Night Hymn #2 - Rejection

By zeidalqadri
so this is how it really feels,
to be head over heels,
to know that sooner or later,
i'll be down on my knees,
before the rejections become anything,
but the plague that actually kills.

it is only no. 5 though,
there are still a pile of reels to show.

Silent Night Hymn #1 - Determination

By zeidalqadri
because i see you everywhere i go,
in my sleep, in my meal, over at the next block,
if you're not Her, i can't think of anything more,
ignore me, grace me,
hit me like i'm your biggest foe,
make me your laughing stock,
feel free if i'm the one you'd want to mock,
i'd do anything you wished for,
i'd be anything you wanted me to be,
your brightest star, your blazing sun,
for you dear,
Her Royal Highness Queen of My Dock.
