DARKNESS

Give me your hand and pull me out,

Before this darkness swallows me down.

It's very deep and dark here,

I can't breathe because of fear.

I am floating in air, like there's no gravity,

And it can keep me like this for eternity.

There's not even a single ray of light,

No sun of hope that can shine bright.

My body is curled up like a cotton ball,

Can't feel anything, just small.

I am lifeless, but still can breathe,

Will you help me and make me release?

Because I just need a hand to pull me out,

Before this darkness completely swallows me down.

STRANGERS

We were strangers, when I first met you,

You didn't even give a look, and I was already in to you.

Some feelings came to me, I don't know why,

And they were growing every minute passing by.

I realized you were all alone, 

So was I, ready to get along.

That was the first time I asked for your name,

You chuckled cutely which drew me insane.

A beautiful girl with a beautiful name,

Like I was waiting from ages for the same.

We became friends, and were with each other without any rest,

Now love makes our heart melt.

I hope we can stay beside each other till eternity,

And be in love whole heartedly.
