Game Of Shadows

 


How can I blame the players when I get played?
Dancing in their spotlight, I’m the game they’ve made.
They charm with sweet talk, all sugar and lies,
Spinning webs of deception, I’m caught in their guise.

Oh, they love me like candy, till the thrill wears thin,
Then poof! They’re gone, like a ghost in the wind.
Am I empowered, or just bait on their line?
A target for their games, yeah, that’s how they dine.

They pout and they gossip, “Oh, women are sly!”
While they pull the same stunts, oh boy, what a lie!
Swapping tales of heartbreak, they wear their sad crowns,
But treat me the same, just passing the frowns.

But hold up, I’m rising, I’m flipping the script,
A phoenix in heels, baby, watch me eclipse!
No longer their plaything, I’m owning my voice,
In this wild game of shadows, I’m making my choice.

Polished Sins

  A suit and tie, that polished smile, Covering up sins stacked mile by mile. They flaunt “new love,” someone else’s child— A ready-made story, perfectly styled. They’ve “levelled up,” or so they preach, But on someone’s pain, they made their reach, With vows of loyalty, words so neat, While another’s screams lie beneath their feet. Oh, they “moved on” to brighter skies, Leaving someone broken, with silent cries. They mount new heights, they shout and boast— Scaling peaks on another's haunted ghost. So smile for the camera, flash your pride, Show off the life that you tried to hide. For we know the truth beneath your gleam— A hollow show, a self-made scheme.

Stay Away

Stay away, stay away Keep those hands away Stay away, stay away I am not on display Stay away, stay away I just want my name on the hard black clay Stay away, stay away I am a kid who just wants to play Stay away, stay away All these memories are like a never-ending screenplay ~ Kanika Kaushal ✨ The Luminous Muse

Model Men and Their Modern Myths

  Here come the men who love their pride, With “culture” on speed dial, their mothers beside them. They want a wife who’ll light the lamp, While they scroll through pages of virtual vamp. They call themselves leaders, oh so wise, But sex ed is a topic they just despise. If you ask them about anatomy's flow, They’ll stammer, then boast about paychecks to show. Progressive now, they’ll have you believe, Because daughters study, and daughters leave The home to work—but don’t go too far, Or they’ll pull you right back by some invisible bar. They crave the respect, the honour, the fame, Yet when faced with real talk, they’re quick to shame. These "modern men" with their ancient views— One foot in the past, and the other confused. Oh, fools of entitlement, kings of the mud, With egos so fragile, they’re bound to flood At the slightest nudge of applied insight— They’ll laugh, then pull you out of their sight. So here’s to these men, these leaders so grand, With “values” in one, ...
