Ecstasy

The ecstacy of success
Still evades me far
List of my achievements
Are extremely meagre
For I have nothing
To be well proud of
And claim my place
On the very top

The pangs of failure
Scorching my heart
Are what I carry along
And cant do it long
I can’t help grieving
Don’t want to be a sloth
The pain of defeat is
What makes me go on

Is it the question of strength
Or a matter of will
How hard I try
Try to succeed
Desperation within me
Eager is my want
I need to struggle
To lament no more

For victory is
Still a very distant thought
Soon I shall be something
Someone worth respect
Thousands of leagues apart
Above the common
Yet I shall be working
To scale heights yet unknown

Behind the Veil

I can feel where you are
Laughing behind the veil
Brewing up plans
To unfold chaos and
Break the peace when
I have to leave

Those eyes of malice
I had once seen
Threatening to ruin all
The twinkle it bore
Showed that here was one
With nothing to lose

Heart filled with hate
Never heard of love
Only quest of yours
The burning desire
Power and more power
Corrupting at your will

Your kingdom built on lies
People fooled and few aware
Of what’s all around
I bring my legions of truth
And fight we shall again
As ever before
Free the people I will
Though it may cause pains
And you’ve left stains

I build with love and truth
A fence to keep you out
But you always manage
To find few flaws
But we both know
You and me shall live forever
You cant hurt me
And I wont kill you
For my beauty shall
Lose its shine without you
