HOPES; ESTRANGED

There are questions in your eyes
And just the same in my heart.
Yet the civilized smile, stupid on our lips
Thats us.
You know it doesn't matter
Whether I stay back, or I die.
Still we want to know how we have been.
Maybe we have learnt to feel too
Only that
What we are supposed to.

Don't know where it will lead us
If anywhere at all.

I hear your breath
Whispering the agony of love.
As both of us lay awake
Side by side, just like
Two corpses, ready for autopsy
In the divorce court.
We made the relationship.
We made the rules..
And today the very same rule
Tells us what we are supposed to feel.

Didn't want to smile when I
Wanted to scream.
Didn't want to stay alone when I
Needed you the most.
Didn't want to do
A lot of things that I am supposed to do.
Am I not supposed to hold you back?
