need

i don’t need my eyes no more
blackout just like a dark night
closing each and every door
blind myself and my love at first sight

i don’t need my ears no more
it’s too much of a noise to bear
what sounded like whispers before
now silence is just what i can hear

i don’t need my arms no more
coz whenever i’d open them wide
i'm sure, that you'll make sure
they're nailed back as if i’m crucified

i don’t need my soul no more
coz being alive is just too overrated
no matter how much you will adore
you wouldn’t know how much i waited

i don’t need my heart no more
each beat is quieter than ever
shouldn’t be such a big deal to ignore
it wouldn’t anyway beat forever

Open your eyes and my love you'll see...
Give me your ears and I'll sing to thee...
Keep your soul and keep your heart...
Together someday we'll share a new start!

Nice continuation, Mr./Ms. Anonymous. With regard to your other comments on other posts, as of now, i can just say, thank you. I wont be able to reply further on your "still to be published" comments, unless i'd know who you are.

I'm glad it pleases you Mr.Higgins, I don't mean to blow my own horn - but it isn't exactly easy to continue someone else's piece of writing, especially one as beautiful as yours...

Whether you reply or don't, is completely up to you, but I'd like it if you did...

Also I'd like to believe that even if we dont know each other, we certainly understand each other at some level - which I think should be good enough for you to reply...

Mr.Higgins,

2 days and still no reply?
I'm starting to think you don't enjoy my admiration towards you.

Ms. Anonymous,

i truly appreciate your comments and your admiration towards the work. Yes, It is tough to continue on the same lines and you've managed to do so as if its some sort of a cake walk. I'd like to continue having a poetic joust with you, but not here. If you don't wanna blow your cover and wanna stay anonymous, we can continue this over emails. Don't wanna sound rude and slash or be completely flattered to your anonymity..

Thanks
