Chrysalis
Do you remember
How we used to live
That santa Monica dream
Sitting under the tree
Times when the hardships
Were lesser,
The life was free.
And I clicked pictures of you
Even when you did hide
Your face with your two hands
Giggling from behind,
Oh how I lost you today?
The butterfly flew
Like a raging storm
Giving me the power
To turn this time back
And I looked at my palm
Wondering how I saved your life
I was terrified and yet
I was ready to fight
To save your life.. Again
And I clicked pictures of you
Even when you did hide
Your face with your two hands
Giggling from behind
Oh how I lost you today?
We have been friends
For so long
Have spent noons
In your backyard
Playing treasure hunt
You loved to hide in spaces
You loved to discover new places
So you vanished like fog
Colored your hair blue
Did I tell you?
You looked like an ice fairy
I lost you over and over
And I found you back
Thought we could stay
Here for life
Searching new places to hide
And I clicked pictures of you
Even when you did hide
Your face with your two hands
Giggling from behind
Oh how I lost you today?
I was happy to have
This power to go back in time
I swear I lived a million lives
In a week
I did it all just for you
So that I could see you alive
But fate takes what’s not ours
You left a long while ago
That day
And I kept living
With your mirage
It’s the end
I say
Standing near your coffin
In a little black dress
And I used to click pictures
Of you
Even when you did hide your face
Giggling from behind
Thought it was just yesterday
Oh how I lost you today?
