||-- I AM MANIK and this is my song --||

I was Rage

Burning Lava oozing from the pit of my soul

Never ending storm tearing apart my heart

I was Pain

Notes of despair holding me captive

A wound never healed festering inside

I was Darkness

Tunnel with no end, forever hidden from the world

Nothing to see, nothing to touch, in black I was held

I was Hate

Whenever I could, spread this feeling just fine

Unknown to the loving hand which never held mine

I was Lost

Chaos ruling my mind with no roads forever in sight

Pieces of me lying around, some given freely, some taken with might

I was Guardian

Protecting, caring, keeping the world at bay

Keeping safe the haven for those who had no say

I was Monster

To hell with the others, they did not matter to me

I did not care, hurt them deeply till they cried for me

Then She came

My life was never the same again

Changed me in many ways, had lot to gain

And now I am Calm

She was Rain, for the lava was subdued

She was Breeze, for the storm was subsided

And now I am Peace

She was melody, for the notes of despair were destroyed

She was heeler, for the wounds never flourished

And now I am Light

She was guide, for I could see the tunnel at its end

She was light, for finally different colours I could find

And now I am Love

She was adamant, for she took my hate and laid me bare

She was tenderness, for only she held my hand with care

And now I am Found

She was determined, for chaos were turned, she gave me a direction

She was stubborn, for pieces of me she joined, which were broken

And now I am Ward

She was safe, for I was cared and protected

She was home, for I could hide away from the world

And now I am Manik

She was hurt, for once I could not hurt any more

She was love, for I could not be contained any more
