I will be thinking of you

ill be thinking of you
while looking at the sky
but no matter where i am
i always start to cry
ill be thinking of you everyday of my life
just call on me and ill be there
whenever your in strife
ill be thinking of you
when im alone in the dark
wishing you were near me

Someone

Someone in my heart beyond all my pride,
Holds a secret desire so intense deep inside.
Imprisoned with all my passion and love,
Unknown to anyone but the lord up above.
A desire for someone to cherish and hold,
The need for love to call my own.
Someone who keeps me shining day and night,
Someone to kiss and make up with after a fight.
Someone who appreciates and respects all I can be,
Someone whose strong enough to commit and love only me.
Someone who will be there to kiss away my tears,
Secure my doubts and release my fears.
Someone who can restore my faith in love once again.
This love is like a dream that has yet to become true,
Or to believed until I found you...

You my friend

You don't always show it,
but I know that you care.
You my friend
If I'd ever need you,
I know you'd be there.
You my friend
Your smile makes me smile.
Your pain makes me hurt.
You my friend
I want you to know...
If you need me...
I'm there.
make you happy,
make you laugh.
You my friend
Sometimes you make me mad,
but I can't stay mad.
You my friend
Do you remember the time when...?
There are so many times.
You my friend
Don't ever lose
the wonderful person you are.
Stay happy.
Stay healthy.
Stay you.
You my friend
I'll never stop being your friend.
Don't ever stop being mine.

I would

i would gladly walk a mile
if dat would give a chance 2 see u smile
call u my frnd
dats a lie
mean more 2 me
can't explain y
u can see it in my eyes
feelings dat i can't describe
tried so hard 2 express u
feelings dat i hold inside
whn i open my mouth to speak
all just seems 2 fall apart
words jus seem 2 scatter
if i were left wid choice
i'd only speak wid heart of d matter
no matter wht i seems 2 do
it always comes out so wrong
many times i think it though
once it hit my mouthi jus stumble along

My love for you

My love for you is like a circle,
never-ending and unbroken.
My love for you is like a light summer rain,
refreshing, rejuvenating, and renewing.
My love for you is like a mountain,
sturdy, solid and strong.
My love for you is like a gentle breeze,
a welcoming tender caress.
My love for you is like a warm embrace,
giving comfort and a smile upon your face.
My love for you is like a Irish wedding band,
full of loyalty, trust and love.
My love for you is a gift,
given from God above.

This feeling of love

This feeling of love that I have for you,
A feeling so strong, so special, so new.
You give me the gift of happiness each day,
Never have I known it could be this way.
You have given your love regardless of cost,
With my heart in your care, I will never be lost.
Or never again wonder what love really means,
For now I do know it means so many things.
Understanding and caring, through good times and bad,
Sharing emotions, should they be happy or sad.
Being there for each other through laughter or tears,
At each other's side for the rest of our years.
My only wish is to be with you, my love,
For each day I pray to the heavens above.
That you always remember my feelings for you.
A feeling so strong, so special, so new!

An inkling of ink

my pen today is overwhelmed
wishes to kiss this paper
pouring the blue poison of feelings
carving a monument of small things
pondering over its life
wondering whether its a lie
or maybe its just my smile
that is complete in this while
thinking about you
i wonder if you are feeling this too
but i know its true
as this dance continues
getting lost again and again
scared of the obvious pain
yet not escaping the domain
where we redefine all thats insane
what is it that we share
what is it that's not there
that i reach the road's end
but still many ways emerge and blend
i complete a line
but so much is left out in time
each walk seems like a pilgrimage
where we meet with divine grace
meditating in each other's hearts' shrine
embracing the gods that in us reside
these are just my lines
you have your own rhyme
but is it not that your pen's flick
touches paper with the same love's ink?

I need to...even though I don't want to

I need to go away from you,
Even though I don't want to.
I need to fall away from you,
Even though I don't want to.
I need to moan,
Even though I don't want to.
I need to stay all alone,
Even though I don't want to.
I need to be blue,
Even though I don't want to.
I need to stop loving you
Even though I don't want to.
I need to lose my sight of you,
Even though I don't want to.
I need to fly low,
Even though I don't want to.
We need to split,
Even though I don't want to.
We need to snivel,
Even though I don't want to.

The captive parrot

Magnificent creatures, what a wonderful sight,
When a colorful bird, takes off in a flight,
What beautiful wings, so high in the air,
Oh what i'd give, to dwell with them there,
Captured and bred, till they could no longer see,
how to live in their world, nor what its like to be free,
Its so sad how they live, confined to one spot,
Cannot perch in a tree, nor be part of a flock,
They've been brought in our homes, their will not in thought,
We'll just have them as pets, whether they care or not,
Their ways we have changed, their homes we have burned,
Yet what have they shown us, but love in return?
To them we owe a lifelong debt,
How dare we mistreat them, and call them a pet?
Forgiving and trusting, our patience they need,
They cant stay in a cage, or be fed only seed,
Their spirit is high, though a prisoner they live,
What can we do, to match what they give?
What precious angels, they are indeed,
The least we can do, is provide they need,
So remember your task, when it seems hard to do,
Your kind loving friend, will appreciate you.

Something to share

" Bird crazy " is what they call me.
And parrots are my game.
This name I have been given.
Is an honor, not a shame.

I love them.
I care for them.
I comfort them too
I also work with humans
and teach them to follow through.

When you bought this lovely creature.
You probably did not know.
Just how very smart it was.
Nor how your life would go.

Sometimes they bite.
Sometimes they scream
They make lot's of messes too.
Another thing to remember is;
They'll probably out live you.

Parrots are wild creatures
But live in homes you see.
They depend on us to give to them.
All the things they need.

They need to have their showers.
Don't forget their Doctor too.
They cannot live on seed alone.
So Sad That many do.

They need Love and Understanding
when they are scared or hurt or sad.
They do not understand it when
we are tired, stressed, or mad.

We must always remember.
They were meant to be free.
We must give them more than just a cage.
For they would really like a tree.

So when you take a parrot home.
Please keep these things in mind.
It's up to you to understand
And always to be kind.

Angel's in disguise

My little birds are so sweet
Perhaps, it's true their not so neat
What such joy they bring each day
One look at their sweet faces erases any traces of sadness away
Little angels in disguise
Who could doubt that they are wise
How do you correct the little creature
When their antics resemble a comedy feature
With a will so strong, I admire
Independence they desire
When dinner is over , the day is gone
Tomorrow will begin with a soft sweet song
This endless love
I must relate
Is truly an act of heavens' fate
There are things I've seen, here of late,
That ache my heart
Teach it to hate
Dark eyes that stare, so brightly awake
Deeply scarring apart
Dare I to reach and take
What some fool unknown as yet to me
Was left behind, uncared
Wanted only conveniently
A life is a life, no matter the race
A love for the feather
A grace of smile on your face
Everything I've asked is small
Everything I need but wee
Everything, no, you're all.

Heart of a parrot

Under this sod lies a sourdough parrot.
Its heart was gold, pure fourteen carat.
Polly now can spread her wings.
Leaving behind her all earthly things.
She ranks in fame as our departed.
A just reward for being good-hearted

Pity

He claws and tears at his perch
To which he has clung
So long.
Will the world of men
Not Pity him,
And freedom he has lost?
Of what use to him in prison
Is his coat of wondrous hue?

Free once more

The parrot sits
Upon his perch
Wrapped in gloomy thought.
And dreams
Of his distant home.
His wings of bright blue
Are clipped;
From his red beak
Come words of wisdom.
Will they never, never
Unlatch his cage
And set him free once more?
Impatient, in anger

The parrot

The parrot is a fancy bird,
clad in breakfast green.
He wings his way to foreign heights,
prodigal to be seen.
The pappagallo has its gentle note,
lost in northern cold.
Do they return,
when flown away,
to my sill of gold?

The start of something new

a new beginning, a new resolution,
new adventures,
new friends,
with same old,
cherishable,
loving
MEMORIES

a new way, a new guide,
new ventures,
new companions,
towards one bright new
ACHIEVEMENT

spontaneous hard work, self faith,
real confidence, better result,
for one and the foremost thing
SUCCESS

When I will leave you

when i looked around me
all that i could c
were the playful images of you and me
suddenly time passed
and i wasnt even aware
that it was time for me
to face my biggest fear.
all i just wanted and wished us to be
was to stay close together
i wanted you to be with me
now all that i could think of
is what will i do?
when the parting time comes-
when i would leave you
I will always remember your smile
that touched all hearts it was the shine of my eyes and with it ,
it had a special art,
An art which created comfort and could easily to happiness sadness convert
will i see that smile again?
will it again bring end to my pains?
like a spear,
it is piercing my heart and, you cant imagine the pain that i would go through.
when the parting time would come
WHEN I WOULD LEAVE YOU....

The twinkle in their eyes

on my counch in half slumber,
a moving picture crosses my mind
those sparkling eyes
those joyful smiles they hold my thoughts
and make me wonder.
what they have within them?
so strong yet tender,
so soft and warm
so moist yet clear
the twinkle in their eyes yet clear
the spark in their life.
at any hour,at any tym
that hidden laughter ,that gleaming light,
that powerful spirit
that worlds delight.
you shout , you scold,
you love, you mould,
their innocent soul gets carved like gold
those twinkling eyes,
that sparkling smile
I lie on my counch
and often behold!!

I'm waiting

They come and they go
Some cheerful and springy
Each step is a bounce
Smiles sparkle aloud
Or are they just
Plastered joys of another face?
Some angry and hateful
Puckered in a frown
Glaring they shuffle away
Brushing off some rage
On me like teeny drizzle drops.
Some tall some short
All shades of black and white
Fat and thin, everything in between
A sky of people twitter by.
Hip girls sway past
A shiny bling-thing lot
Giggling, they preen their glittering sheen
I sit low in my scraggly world
As they cascade along.
The coochy-coo couples fly by
Some doing the shy finger kissing thing
They waltz past
On top of each other
Fingers and tresses running a crazy pattern
Podgy men amble along
Leering at me
I stare right back
Shiftily they shuffle past
Clutching there puny selves in drooling hands
And through my musings I see
There he comes now
The din suddenly is music
The time just a tick
I gather my stuff
As he gathers me
He comes and we go

Tryst with an artist

He lay there slouched on his elbows
moss green shirt hanging on a lean frame
hair flung across that brooding head
a grin smeared his mouth
as if it were all a game
faded blue denims
a splotch of yellow paint
above his knee
a dirty tear
white paper from a pad
looked up at him
he stroked it with his pen
urgently calm
expression poured forth
he charged on and then
in a lethal move
perfected the final blow
pen put down he looked around
untangled his legs
and walked away...

She

She shimmers and shines on borrowed light
its cold, she gives me warmth tonight
clammy fingers wrapped around shivering toes
a silent calm upon me grows

She hides I seek, I seek she hides
on cloudy waves she stealthily glides
chilly winds blow tunes through my hair
I hug myself under her gentle glare

Thoughts splutter and spout in my mind
memories I thought I wouldnt find
the grass is wet, my eyes still dry
cranky crickets creak nearby

I look at the moon, her pock - marked face
the craters - they add a gruesome grace
I gather myself and my moonlit thoughts
unspoken, unshared, undone, unthought

Let me dream tonight

Let me dream tonight
not of us riding love - kissed clouds
ambushed by red rose crowds
no cuddly wuddly pillows, sheets surf - white
no violins and wine on a five - star night

no mushy talk and romantic views
no beaches and waves in sunset hues
no second skin dresses in the rain
no log fire heat - it fries my brain

Let me dream tonight
of the wind in my hair as you kiss me sore
of entwining, collapsing, passions running raw
being, breathing, just living each other,
mundane things like cooking , cleaning together.

before shards of reason alight on my brain
and the dreams flow out grain by grain
let me dream tonight a dream so selfish
let me gorge on my dream, lick with relish

The outsider inside

Devils and angels hammer at my head
a clutter of ideas chatter aloud
thoughts riddle in and out -
a quizzical labyrinth
they squabble, they scream, they wither, they mope
the good and the evil battle along
reason lies squashed under frivolous greed
virtue argues with imaginaton's crippled flutter
truth nudges pride, alter egos draw blood
hope lights up the coridoors of remorse
an experience whispers life into decaying dreams
the phantom of a lost love flits past
its forgotten reassurance warms me
I watch amused, the outsider inside.

Hear me

Hush...listen closely...
there...can you hear her soul shatter
a million luminous little pieces
her mind romps over the shards
she aches and writhes
walks over blood-washed floors
her angel gently shines over
she turns a shivering shoulder,
a stifled sob
the day dawns...
she readies herself
vainly, she defies the ghosts in vain
a hint of a smile glistens on her tears...

Look my way

Look my way
see beauty steal upon me
the cloth ripple over.
scratching.
soothing
your eyes fondle and sculpt my body
i writhe in the agony of knowing that you can, at will,
create an illusion so vivid,
I can touch my mirrored reflection.
Hear the embers crackle in my heart's glowering silence
abandond.
exiled.
Touch the ache piercing my shapeless melted self
as it throbs life through me
the pain.
I selfishly indulge in self-indulgence.
I lean towards then rip myself way.
Sighs whoosh out a tired, expectant mouth
hands wring each other throttling wrists in vain.
jealousy romps over me as I watch you exhale.
inhale.
I'd flutter into a wisp of wind.
To be breathed in, breathed out, breathed on
If I didn't know you better, I would love you.

Soulful murders

there there
it hits me straight
just where I thought nothing could touch me
as frustrating
as a writer's block
as agonizing as getting lost
in the alleys of my memories
one moment I'm gliding
a princess of my universe
content
screaming out my happiness
for anybody to hear
anybody, everybody
and then I'm lying in a pool
of my bloody tears
oh-so-salty
oh-so-putrid

oh thankyou
someone just turned the lights on
and my wasted eyes
are making unhappy shapes mirrored in my tears a shivering heart
consoles a tired mind blinding lights ridicule
me
splayed in misery
shadows giggle at a private joke
on a pathetic slain soul.

Lawless love

Let her be the breeze
on your tear-stained cheek
let her be the sunbeam
for your sodden dreams
let her waltz through your thoughts
to a quirky tune
let her embrace you
the light of a moist moon

even when she prays for you
she flatters herself
to believe she has the power
to protect.to destroy.to love.to cherish
she ekes out happiness
from her miserly existence
narcissism casts an ugly shadow
over a pathetic tiny ego

Bashing blues

She is stretched across contradictions
threads of sanity pulling either way
hell threatens to engulf, to break free
heaven beckons, a teardrop away

will the lady allow herself
the comfort of memories so withered?
would she rather threaten "now" to collide
with her. bitter,war-paint smeared.

she gasps in mouthfuls of pain
brokenly breathes in that smell
of her soul breaking into mirages
collapsing into a shell.

yearning, bruising, she opens those eyes
will you hold her this one last time
she lies there torn, demanding pity
proudly begging you to hold her right.

Mooning over her dawn

The day is closing its weary arms
in a humble defeated bow
to the darkness creeping upon it
with the stealth of a friend for a backstabber
gnawing from the front

The moon she alights: quirky , all smiles
cherubic in her guise of white simplicity
she quivers with anticipation
the night beckons
with sheafs of urgent darkness
wolves howl echoes to the winds' ragged breath.

In her stolen silent light,
the ugly revel
thwarted in daylight, set free
by the pitch murkiness of a night
feeble footed bats
pesky scrambling rats
wide-eyed owls
snarling wolves
lovers entwined
figures distorted
as shadows play
rude games with her light.

She stares below
condescending
haughty
anguish highlighting dark blotches
where ebony fingers tarnish the ivory.

She fervently awaits
for her light-bathed knight
for whom golden hues dance
for whom her light pales in a sigh
for whom holding her breath
prolongs the agony
of another love-washed wishful night

Dawn cracks,
she reigns him in by the fragile thread of flattery
he is the king of dawn
the slave of the moonlight
he blooms as she fades
ending the darkness
and her night of glory
she blushes into oblivion
reveling in his triumph
as he rides in, supreme,
a sore second to her charm.

Iss raat ki subah nahi

she's fading into the obscurity of her endless thoughts
a pit of
hissing snakes
torrid storms
silver linings
sobbing maidens
sly pranks
loud chatter
air
caustic claustrophobia
try as she might to come to an end, a conclusion,
she falls
further
into the vacuum of too much
where the silence
and
the noise
battle with treacherous swords
leaving her distraught
in shreds
groping
for answers
to a lost cause
to a won war

This one's for you

smiles lose their way on her lips these days
in a breeze of bewilderment she nimbly sways
her heart shhhushes her mind as it clammers on
she won't listen today, she's a quirky song
impatience tugs, boredome itchs
she briddles and bellows at the prophetic witches
its not too late, she was so wrong
but isnt love a heart-soaked two-edged prong?
buried ghosts resurrect themselves once again
she struggles as the armour crumbles with pain
he indulgingly smiles at her foolish floundering feet
she learns her lessons like a shameless cheat
the silence stretches forth she whispers somehow
need I say aloud what you already know

It ends tonight

will you hold me for as long as it takes hopes to shatter
a heartbeat to get breathless
murmuring tales in its contorted way
hold me
as pieces of me fall unanswered
the gods laugh as I tremble on the floor
tears well up a multitude of mirrors
the sheen on my murky flaws
People dance around
hideous grins obscure the faces
as my woe riddled soul
collapses into puddles
today the gods conspire
heaven is a sodden shade of brown
the bitter taste makes me smile
the old shrivels up
it ends tonight
I laugh aloud

Sometimes

Sometimes feelings can’t be defined,
can’t be put a finger on,
Sometimes u wanna fly high and have all the stars ,
Sometimes all u want is everything,
Sometimes u are surrounded by ‘so much’ love,
but all u want is more,
Sometimes anxiety defines the person u are,
rather than ur confidence,
Sometimes u get sick out of feeling blue,
Sometimes emptiness demands more from Ur soul, drains u, leaves u sucked…
Tired, because of ur fighting urself,
Exasperated, because of constant botheration,
Suicidal, cause ur so demanding of ur self,
Gutless, cause anyways, u wont end ur life,
Because u love urself too much to do anything "wise",
Anyways all of this, like so many other things is
......in effect

Calling

my childhood has come to take me
ma, take me home
'the calling' out of a dull light
a quiet yet a shrieking voice
"Love, Pain, Want, Sacrifice"....
and we stroll in a garden full of our dreams,
built on the unlived memories
that our presence would have created....

Beautiful raindrop

A beautiful drop
blurring the reality in revenge...
Racing down the air come
and splash into oblivion
and cool me with your wetness.
Hang by the leaves
magnitised
and dont fall until
another one comes and takes ur place
down below
then fall
form bubbles and burst
an interplay of love and lust
form waves only to die
only to merge and mix
into someone else
tap the leaves
like drumsticks
heartsounds and homesick.
smell of wet soil
feel of wet soil
dirt of wet soil
invigorate the green
energize the environs
activate the chirping
and my dogs searching
down you come
only to make us dream
only to give us hope
only to drift us away
from reality
to an insight of heaven.

Beauty in a beast

The torn up landscape of my selfish heart
Lying still, awaiting a single drop of sunshine
Spotless within…filled with bright yellow patches
And desire’s ugly scars on the outside

Bordering on the edge of reason
Perched on the boundaries of a sensible life
Cold and dark, small and barren
Searching for pink rapture, wrapped in purple melancholy

Wallowing in self-obsessed oblivion
Exiled by illusions that sanity imposes
Unheading that gentle lover's sigh
Following its own, relentlessly guiltlessly

On a canvas

If only you would pick a colour for me
Paint me in bold sweeps and steady strokes
Lay me across your canvas
Just the way you like
I could be sunshine yellow for you
With eyes blue cobalt azure indigo
If thats what you want
And with a hint of coffee on your brush
mixed with copper and touched with gold
You could try and paint my skin
Turn me into daffodils
Pick me up and smell me
Or maybe a dancing brook
That you can dip your toes in
A bird in flight, the rising sun
Poetry on a canvas, a look, a sigh
A blurry portrait or a jumbled Dali
A picture within a picture
Make me say a thousand words and yet
Nothing at all

I wish

I could gather up the sound of
your laughter and hold it close
Pour your pain into a pail
Toss away your torment and woes
Show you what red blue yellow sound like
Make you taste a symphony or two
Feel the texture of a number
Bring fantasy to life for you
If you will let me…

With white ink

Today again I wish to write
To make history with my words
Unfurl sentences that will change
The broken paths of my destiny
Roll out paragraphs that will paint
The future in vivid hues
Unfold the untold story
For all mankind to drown in
Bring alphabets magically to life
Make slaves out of melancholy, joy, poignancy,Truth.
Shape tomorrow with a mere stroke, a sigh
Trace an inky line across pages that prove the stars wrong
Today again I wish to write
Today again I wish I could

Jasmine tree

On a chocolate brown afternoon
Soaked in sugar and warm whiskey
I pick up the pieces of my forgotten love
And reexamine them in the fading light
As dusk slowly creeps upon my windowsill
And darkness threatens to swallow the day
I turn back time to when we used to be
Together under a jasmine tree
As alphabets became words became sentences
on torn out pages from school notebooks
As literature geography algebra became
Letters of love read a million times over
I remember your smile upon my shoulder
My tears like diamonds melting on grass
And how I could never understand
Where I ended and you began
Today the lonely moon rises in our shared sky
Lighting up our unshared lives
The jasmine tree is there no more
So does it matter who walked away?

3 am

The remains of the evening
slowly decomposing
Don’t feel so solid anymore
Curling up and dying
Made of sugar
Throw some water,
see me melt
Become a puddle on the ground
That you can wipe away
Cant seem to think anymore
Every turn leads to a dead end
Wordless sleepless senseless
Living without the confines of reality
Unable to fight
Unable to give up
What started with a paperback original
Has now turned into a symphony
An obscure fresco
A photograph in black and white
A tattoo in the air.
Its over, yet
Cant seem to let you go

Let us

Let us always do the caring things, that bring
joy to each other,
Let us always trust each other,
Let us not be afraid to admit our faults,
For I know I'm not perfect and that no one else is.
Let us always be honest with each other,
Let us talk freely so we can help each other.
Let us always be the Best of All...

enriches us. !!!

Love

love,a word undefine.
everyday running through my mind,
how much i love you,
how much i care,
the feelings are there,
but not much time to share.
yet still holding on,
will never let go,
will always be here.
through thick and thin,
rain and sunshine,
thinking of you until the very end.
your name says it all,
that deserve to be,
in a picture frame printed by me.

On your day!

On your day just want to say
That you can count on me
To be your friend until the end:
Just wait and you will see!

I know that you would be as true
To me for just as long.
No "if" or "but," no matter what,
Our friendship will be strong.

So, my dear, I'm glad you're here
To share my joy and pain.
I care so much, so keep in touch--
I'll talk to you again!

My bestest friend

My Beautiful Friend

You made me laugh when I cried so hard
You gave me bracelets to cover my scars
You held me close when I was so cold
You offered a comforting hand to hold

You picked me up whenever I fell
You showed me heaven when I was blinded by hell
You answered my calls in the darkened night
You gave me the reasons to hold on and fight

You rescued me when I was drowning in pain
You placed me back on the right path again
You loved me forever and stayed by my side
You entered my heart as an angel to guide

You may not be with me so much anymore
But I know you will leave open a beckoning door
I miss you so much but I'll fight till the end
I love you so much my Bestest friend

True friends

The Two of Us....

True friends will always stay with you,
Through good times and through bad.
They'll take the time to listen,
When something's made you sad.
When you're feeling lonely,
They'll let you know they care.
They may be very busy but,
They'll find the time to share.
True friends are happy for you,
When good things come your way.
They'll celebrate your triumphs
And encourage you each day.
If you have a friend that's true,
Count your blessings for this gift.
For, she will stay with you forever,
When the rest have gone adrift

What's this?

i’m low, i’m sad
i dont know why?
i’m helpless, i’m immature
i dont know why?
i’m crying, i’m dying
i dont know why?
its paining, its breaking
i dont know why?
its shattering, its tearing
i dont know why?
its the truth, its life
i dont know why??

I'm alive

Today’s a bright new day
i’m born again!
The sun’s shining brighter
the wind’s blowing wilder
There’s love in the air
and i shit to care!
I’m satisfied with what i’ve
want nothing more
The world’s full of liars
and i dont seem to care!
I want to be alone
i want to be in dime
Want that cherishing hug
which lasts all night
I’m changed
i’m famed
and all thanks to radi!!!
***** wouldnt have ditched me
i would have never realised
the importance my friends
hold in my life!

Hope that

Hope that day hadnt come,
hope i had never had rum
Never would i’ve had a fight,
nor would i had been stuck with plight
Had a crash,
then...me right in hospital
Could have saved you,
but maybe i was to dumb
Couldnt see your heart crying,
couldnt see your soul dying
All my fault,
its all mine
You could have been alive,
could have been right there mine
I’ve kept my words,
all these years
Hope you cherish them,
feel i’ve never betrayed you
Dont want any acknowledgment,
just want to have a last look at your assuring eyes
Because..
they say it all..
there’s to say!
Just hope...
that day hadnt come!

Help me!

Where do I go,
where do I head to??
Give me some direction ,
give me some life
It feels that i’m dead,
Can I ever be alive??
My ‘so-called’ friends…
Because I dont know whether they are or not
Call me understanding…
Then why cant they understand me ever??
They call me sweet…
Why is everyone rude to me forever??
They call me trust-worthy…
Is that why they ditch me all the time??
They call me forgiving…
But dont I have any limitations??
I’m human too…
Have my own feelings
What do I do??
I’m lost…
In my own thoughts
Would I ever be able to find…
Someone whom I can trust n rely on??
Someone special…
Who understands me well
And whenever I need…
to push me up back!

Friendship-what is it?

Some people make friends,
Cuz they are alone,
N some others make friends,
Cuz they want someone along.
The true meaning of friendship,
Very few people understand,
People just think that,
Friends are helping hands.
A friend is not a partner,
He is not a mate,
But really if you want to know,
He is a part of your heart n your breath.
So friends please understand,
Dont just make friends,
Cuz your alone,
But make friends,
To join there hearts to your own.
N do remember!
Making a friend takes a moment,
But being a friend takes a lifetime.

Joy

Joy is a bird
That sings in the rain
Bringing hope
to each heart
With its happy refrain…
Joy is a rainbow
Across stormy skies
N joy is a loved one
With twinkling eyes…
Joy is a star
Shining bright in the night
A small, precious sip
from the cup of delight…
N joy most of all
Is a gift from above,
from God who
Gives all from the
Depth of his love.

Why I love you?

I got your back
You got mine,
I’ll help you out
Anytime.
To see you hurt
To see you cry,
Makes me weep
And wanna die.
And if you agree
To never fight,
It wouldn’t matter
Who’s wrong or right.
If a broken heart
Needs a mend,
I’ll be right there
To the end.
If your cheeks are wet
From drops of tears,
Don’t you worry,
Let go of your fears.
Hand in hand
Love is sent,
We’ll be friends
Till the end

Miss you

I miss the way you made me laugh and smile
I miss the days you
drove me wild
I miss the days we’d look each other in the eyes and
not utter a sound
I miss the true love
I had finally found
I miss the ways you
made me feel
I miss the broken heart you
always knew how to heal
I miss all the ways
you touched me
You were the one that could
unlock my heart you
had the only key
Where ever you are
I miss you so much
I want you back,
I want to feel your gentle touch
No one will evertake your place
Oh how i miss you so,
I cant wait till
the day when i can
again look,
and touch your face
I miss, love and need
you here with me
Because without you I cant
find my way
I cant see!

Please be my best friend forever

I’m going to be the best friend you ever had
I’m going to listen to you like no one has
Even if I might be too busy
I’m going to be there when it counts
Not this time, but every time you need it
I’m going to be the best friend you ever had
I’m going to be your support, lifting you up
Whether I have the strength to or not
I’m going to treat you like it’s your birthday
Not that day, but every single day of the year
I’m going to be the best friend you ever had
I’ll listen to you
I’ll offer you advice
I’ll play with you
Sometimes letting you win
I’ll be there for you
When you’re filled up with strife
I’ll pray for you
When you’re struggling in life
I’m going to be the best friend you’ve ever had
This day, the next and forever...
Because that’s the kind of friend you are for me.

My best friend

Today I found a friend,
Who knew everything I felt.
She knew my every weakness,
And the problems I’ve been dealt.
She understood my wonders,
And listened to my dreams.
She listened to how I felt about life and love,
And knew what it all means.
Not once did she interrupt me,
Or tell me I was wrong.
She understood what I was going through,
And promised she’d stay long
I reached out to this friend
To show her that i care
To pull her close and let her know
How much I need her there
I went to hold her hand
To pull her a bit nearer
And realized that this perfect friend I found
Was nothing but my mirror

Just trust me

Everybody knows that I was such a fool...
To ever let go of you....
I was wrong!
Yeah I know I said...
We’d better off alone...
It was time we moved on...
I know I broke your heart...
I didn’t mean to break your heart...
But here I ammmm...
Banging’ on your front door....
My pride’s spilled on the floor....
My hands and knees are bruised....
And I’m crawling back to you....
Begging for a second chance....
And now I’m crawling back to you!!!!
Just trust me as we trusted each other at our great time!!!

Quiet love

No tears, no heartache, no win or lose.
A new way to love, I’ve found.
Your smile gives to me peace.
Your voice caresses my soul.
Your eyes tell all...and more
Your hand in mine-
You have shown me a new way to love.
Much laughter, joy filled heart.
We are one...together.
A new way to love, you have given me.
Your sighs of love.
Fulfill every empty and shattered dream.
You have made whole
the broken soul of abused love.
Here we are, hand in hand,
nose touching nose,
eye to eye,
we have...a quiet love.

Just tell me you love me

I want to feel love like yours,
While making sure
I give you stars unlike anyone else’s
I want to feel your love.
And in the morning
When I cannot remember my night,
I still can’t think of what to say
To express how I love you.
I am running in my head
Among all my stories and theories.
I can hear the screams of my heart
That I cannot get used to.
There are things alone,
That only you can see,
Tell me you love me,
And I will take u there.
There are things alone,
That only you can hear,
If something is lost,
Just tell me you love me,
And that will be enough.
And at the world,
You do not laugh,
For you know that there are
A heap of lies which tip the scale.
There is a place where you can be with me,
Just don’t be afraid to love me.
And before you can experience this
You must tell me you love me and follow your heart!

He broke my heart

You were what I wanted
And that wish came true for a while
It was perfect
All I could think of was you
And then along came temptation
You tried to be strong
You didn’t want to break my heart
But you didn’t hold out long
My friends told you to be honest
Even if it meant to hurt me
Apparently my love wasn’t enough
You wanted to be free
I spent some time crying
I did some stupid things
But all I really wanted was the pain to go away
And now its been a couple days
I guess you are happy
And that is what I want
Even if its not with me
You wanted to be single
And that is what you got
So much for all your promises
I guess you forgot
She says I should move on
And find someone new
Even though you broke my heart
All I really want is you!!

My love

My love is like an ocean
It goes down so deep
My love is like a rose
Whose beauty you want to keep.
My love is like a river
That will never end
My love is like a dove
With a beautiful message to send.
My love is like a song
That goes on and on forever
My love is like a prisoner
It’s to you that I surrender.

My friend

You are friendly, kind and caring
Sensitive, loyal and understanding
Humorous, fun, secure and true
Always there…yes that’s you.
Special, accepting, exciting and wise
Truthful and helpful, with honest blue eyes
Confiding, forgiving, cheerful and bright
Yes that’s you…no one bit of spite.
You’re one of a kind, different from others
Generous, charming, but not one that smothers
Optimistic, thoughtful, happy and game
But not just another…in the long chain.
Appreciative, warm and precious like gold
Our friendship wont tarnish or ever grow old
You’ll always be there, I know that is true
I’ll always be here…always for you.

A special world

A special world for you and me
A special bond one cannot see
It wraps us up in its cocoon
And holds us fiercely in its womb.
Its fingers spread like fine spun gold
Gently nestling us to the fold
Like silken thread it holds us fast
Bonds like this are meant to last.
And though at times a thread may break
A new one forms in its wake
To bind us closer and keeps us strong
In a special world, where we belong.

You n I

You and I are connected
in a way that goes beyond romance,
beyond friendship,
beyond what we’ve ever had before.
It has defied time, distance,
and changes in ourselves
and in our lives.
It has defied every explanation.
Except one:
Pure and simply, we’re soul mates.
I can’t explain, I just feel it.
It’s there in the way my spirits lift
whenever we talk.
The sound of your voice brings me home,
in a way I can’t explain.
It’s in the delight I feel,
when we laugh at exactly the same things.
When I’m with you,
it’s like a tiny piece of the universe
shifts into place.
A place it’s supposed to be,
and all is right with the world.
These things and so many more,
have made me understand
that this is a once in a lifetime,
forever connection.
A connection that could only exist
between you and me.
And deep in my soul,
I know that our relationship
is a rare gift.
One that brings us
extraordinary happiness
all through our lives.

Will you ever?

I don’t think you will
ever fully understand
how you’ve touched my life
and made me who I am.
I don’t think you could ever know
just how truly special you are
that even on the darkest nights
you are my brightest star.
I don’t think you will ever fully comprehend
how you’ve made my dreams come true
or how you’ve opened my heart
to love and the wonders it can do.
You’ve allowed me to experience
something very hard to find
unconditional love that exists
in my body, soul, and mind.
I don’t think you could ever feel
all the love I have to give
and I’m sure you’ll never realize
you’ve been my will to live.
You are an amazing person
and without you I don’t know where I’d be.
Having you in my life
completes and fulfills every part of me.

Because of you

Because of you
my world is now whole,
Because of you
love lives in my soul.
Because of you
I have laughter in my eyes,
Because of you
I am no longer afraid of good-byes.
You are my pillar
my stone of strength,
With me through all seasons
and great times of length.
My love for you is pure
boundless through space and time,
it grows stronger everyday
with the knowledge that you’ll always be mine.
At the altar
I will joyously say ‘I do’,
for I have it all now
and it’s all because of you.

Perfection in my eyes

All I ever wanted was to be part of your heart,
And for us to be together,
to never be apart.
No one else in the world can even compare,
You’re perfect and so is this love that we share.
We have so much more than I ever thought we would,
I love you more than I ever thought I could.
I promise to give you all I have to give,
I’ll do anything for you as long as I live.
In your eyes I see our present, our future and past,
By the way you look at me I know we will last.
I hope that one day you’ll come to realize,
How perfect you are when seen through my eyes.

For you are the one

For you I would climb
The highest mountain peak
Swim the deepest ocean
Your love I do seek.
For you I would cross
The rivers most wide
Walk the hottest desert sand
To have you by my side.
For you are the one
Who makes me whole
You’ve captured my heart
And touched my soul.
For you are the one
That stepped out of my dreams
Gave me new hope
Showed me what love means.
For you alone
Are my reason to live
For the compassion you show
And the care that you give.
You came into my life
And made me complete
Each time I see you
My heart skips a beat.
For you define beauty
In both body and mind
Your soft, gentle face
More beauty I’ll never find.
For you are the one
God sent from above
The angel I needed
For whom I do love.

The gift of knowing you

There are gifts of many treasures
For both the young and old,
From the tiniest little trinkets
To great boxes filled with gold.
But, put them all together
And they could not stand in lieu,
Of the greatest gift of all
The gift of knowing you.
When your times are filled with troubles
Sadness, grief, or even doubt,
When all those things you planned on
Just aren’t turning out.
Just turn and look behind you
From the place at which you stand,
And look for me through the shadows
And reach out for my hand.
I will lift from you your burden
And cry for you your tears,
Bear the pain of all your sorrows
Though it may be for a thousand years.
For in the end I would be happy
To have helped you start anew,
It’s a small price to pay
For the gift of knowing you.

Look into my eyes

Look into my eyes you’ll see
loneliness, insanity
look into my eyes you’ll find
broken heart, broken mind
look into my eyes you’ll know
I’m haunted by my own soul
all alone through the pain
i walk alone through the rain
all alone i pray to u
i walk alone please guide me through
this storm that i must face again
i walk alone without a friend
searching for my sanity
i pray to u please set me free
free from all the tears I’ve cried
free from all the pain inside
help me find a path that leads
through this storm of insanity
through the darkness into the light
heal my heart heal my mind
i no longer want to die
i no longer want to cry
if i do not find a way
all alone ill die today

Hurting words

Enduring every hurting words
Having pain stuck in my world
keeping it inside of me
Unknowingly it kills
Acting like I didn’t hear
Those words you said in front of me
Acting like I wasn’t hurt
Made myself feel like a dork
I was only helping you
Cuz I knew that you were blue
I didn’t expect that you would do
And say such things that just aren’t true
Now that i came back to reality
What can I do but just go on and be happy
I won’t prefer to cry and cry
I’ll never want and hope to die

Broken on the inside

I’ll pretend to be happy
but only for a little while.
I’ll laugh and say every thing’s super
but only for a little while.
I’ll hold it all inside
and I’ll pretend to smile.
But only until that day
which will be here in a little while.
No matter what it will always hurt
everyday growing worse and worse.
No one loves me for long
and that is my curse.
I’m waiting for the time to come
when I will be OK.
And I think it’s almost here
that fateful day.
They’ll understand why they didn’t know me
they’ll know why I died.
No matter how happy I always looked
I was broken on the inside.
So I’ll get it over with
and when I’m gone
I hope he’ll think
”i miss her."
”I’ve missed her all along.”

My pain and misery

Every thing I’ve been through
i cant bare to loose you
all the pain misery and lies
is What i hide behind my eyes
i cant pretend
cause what happened to my heart will never mend
i cover all my fears
and hide all these tears
by the darkness of the night
wishing maybe i can find the light
through all this pain...
is driving me insane
catching my self breaking down crying all alone
i miss you , wanting to call your phone
how could you do me so wrong
i thought our love was strong.........

True Love

True love never dies
When we’re apart not only one person cries
It hurts us both
We never even got a chance to take that oath
Dreams of wanting to be together forever
To hold each other no matter the weather
Life can change in an instant
That one person will always leave an imprint
Something you’ll never forget
But forced now living in regret
Not being together is a choice for one to make
In the interest of their own sake
Only looking out for yourself
Trying to protect one’s self
No one likes being hurt
Or to be pushed down in the dirt
Bad choices are made
And for that prices are paid
The price of one’s life is more than you’d expect
But for what I did that’s the effect
NO matter how hard I try to explain
That I truly will change
It will never make up for
All the pain you had to endure
So I’m asked to end with a goodbye
But I will never let our love die
No matter how hard you try to pretend
This love will never end
And even if we’re never together again
I will wait until the end
Because true love never dies
I hope I’m not the only one who cries...

Can't be mine

..you can hide the pain
that you feel.....

and make others feel
that you can move on.....

but you can never deny
the truth that.....

the person who
failed and hurt you.....

is still the same person
you wish to loved you......

but it just a wish
that will never come true.....

cause that person also wish......
that the person he loved so much

will also love him the way he need to be lobed..!!

She used to be his angel

Sitting there on the concrete floor crying from the pain
a young girl sits in agony repeating his name in vain
with a broken wing attached, she can no longer fly
her heart is in much despair as she questions herself why
she use to be his angel his strength when he was weak
and now he’s the one she longs for, and the love that her heart seeks
She went out on a journey looking to be by his side
only to realize the truth that their love had died
And now her heart is broken and so is her beautiful wing
she stares down at her finger where there use to be a ring
And the tears build up inside her and suddenly fall down like rain
filling up a puddle to wash out all her pain
She use to be his angel she stood with him all the way
but he released her in the open on that painful day
So she sat there on the concrete, holding a feather in her hand
wishing he would open up and try to understand
That she was his angel the one god sent to be with him
she was the one that carried him through his every sin
she stood by him at his worst and even at his best
carried him through rough times without stopping for a rest

This is the way you left me

This is the way you left me,
All alone, shaking in the cold,
Why did you leave me,
Like it was all my fault!
This is the way you left me,
Freezing in the snow,
You kept saying stuff,
Thinking that I would know!
This is the way you left me,
Praying and hoping,
Wishing and crying,
My tears froze just like my heart,
I could never dream of us ever being apart.
This is the way you left me,
knowing that very night,
Was the very end,
I gripped on tight,
To my very dear friend.
This feeling will last forever,
Wishing we could be together.

Alone

You left me broken,
All on my own,
I had no-one to call.
My heart was in piece’s,
My tears streamed freely,
To lose someone I love.
I’ve never felt so alone,
And so broken up all around.
You use to make me smile,
Now all I do is frown.
I scrubbed my body hard,
To get your touch off my skin.
I drank poison every time
I thought of you,
To get your taste out of my system.
My heart, body and soul died the day you betrayed me...

Promises made

Yesterday’s goals,
dim memories.
Dark saddened eyes,
blurring with tears.
Painful scars borne;
Love’s history.
Futures crumble when doubt appears.
No brightly lit hope envisioned,
When following after harsh words.
Hurt soul splits in twain,
partitioned.
Swooned by appeal - when numbness lured.
Apologies made,
never bought.
Price paid turned out far too costly.
Though never known what would be wrought -
Must walk into the night softly.
One wish,
only to be released.
Granted -
now receive this token.
Words written in rhyme,
love’s deceased.
When promises made . . . were broken.

I learn to be strong

Words of wisdom come to my ears,
Telling me what I know in my heart,
But never wanted to hear.
With the truth finally said
and out in the open for me to plainly see,
I wonder why I can love so deeply
but never had that love returned back to me.
I confessed the feelings
that I held inside for so long,
But with his soft- hearted rejection,
I realize I have to be strong.
With tears that want to flow
from my eyes,
I feel that my heart,
along with my composure,
slowly dies.
While this dramatic side is showing through
with my ability to question and reason,
I think I may have found
something in me that I can believe in.
Love hurts . . .
That’s what they all say,
But I will love again
when all this pain and sorrow goes away.
So I sit and think of all the things
this situation has cost,
And I realize that nothing
very important has been lost.
Instead, a learning experience
has come from all this.
I’ve learned that hardly anything
is more important than my happiness.

Nights without you

Sleepless, dreamless, hopeless nights,
I wish for you to come.
To fill my eyes with tears of happiness,
and take away this glum.
I wish for you to put your hands around me,
and make me cozy and warm,
and fill my stomach with butterflies and bees,
that so gently swarm.
I wish for you to bring me joy,
when everything seems so bad,
and take me out of this unhappy mood,
that makes me feel so sad.
I wish for you to give me back the memories
that brightened up my heart,
and let us share more of them,
because I do not understand
why we ever did part.
I wish for everything to be as it was,
having soft sleeps filled with dreams and hope tonight,
so that for every coming day there is a shine of light.
Does it have to end like this?
For I’m not back in your arms,
my dreams still torn,
my heart still empty,
my life with no happiness,
my day with no future without you.

Whispers

The one thing I’ve learned about happiness
It will never last pretending you’re not you.
Somehow, someway the truth will arise
And all that you hide will show through.
Sooner or later, one way or another
Something in your life seems wrong.
You go to bed unhappy and awake the same
Repeating life’s mistakes too long.
One day, to yourself, you begin to question
“Is this who I am and wish to be”?
How will I choose to live the rest of my life
Till the angle of death comes for me?
Most people wish to be at peace with God,
Oneself, and those we love.
Frequently taking a look at our past

Friends

We all have that special friend
who listens to our
problems and difficulties.
Who makes life a bit
easy by just being there
Reaching out
Sharing doubt
When life gets you down
Having that special bond
between friends
A bond that time
cannot break.
We all need someone
To talk to in our life,
A friend to whom we run
In times of stress or strife
When I am angry,
you are there to sooth
my aggression.
And when I am sad,
you are there to cheer me up.
For everything
and all that you do,
I want you to know
I’ll do the same for you.
You’ve been a true friend
I hope you stay
I would be so very empty
If you ever went away

A dream come true

Feelings that once were hidden
Are now expressed to you.
Days that once were stormy
Are now the brightest blue.
Times that once were lonely
Are now filled with pleasure.
All that once was mine alone
Are now things we both treasure.
Nights that once were cold
Are now comforting and warm.
Fears that once were very real
Are now gone with the storm.
A heart that once was broken
Can now finally mend.
A person once alone in life
Can now call you a friend.
Dreams that once were longed for
Are now all coming true.
The love I once thought was gone
I have now and forever in you.

A love like no other

I never felt a love
Like this before
It’s a love like no other
Something I have always hoped for
A love with friendship
Humour and heart
A bond so strong
It would never part
A love that makes you smile
From ear to ear
A love that is joyful
Without any fear
A love that is beautiful
From the inside out
A love with no tears,
Pain, or doubt
A love with soul
So tender and true
A love that I have found
Only in you...

True love

You came into my life unexpectedly,
and everything took a turn for the better.
Your warm eyes, your laugh,
the sincere way you speak,
and the kindness you showed me,
all became a part of my life.
As you unfolded yourself to me,
I discovered more and more beauty.
I have never seen so much
gentleness in one person.
Without even knowing it,
you were slowly making a place
for yourself in my heart.
It used to seem so hard at times
to feel so close in a relationship.
But it’s so easy to feel close to you.
I can’t tell you how nice that feels.
I realize now that I had never known
what it meant to be loved
until I was loved by you.

Red rose

Our love is that of a red rose
Whose splendor rises as the sun shows its face,
Whose petals expand further and richer
Whispering secrets of happiness and affection.
And even though with the fall of dusk
All contentment is swept away,
And the rose’s petals unite as one
Reflecting any light that may endeavor to shine through,
The sun will always rise
And the rose’s petals will eternally broaden
Until they fully blossom into a stunning creation.
Our love is that of a red rose
Possessing a few imperfections
That may cause evanescent wounds,
But the internal radiance
That will everlastingly bestow healing and comfort.

A rose that once stood alone

A solitary rose grew in the darkest corner of the garden
Surrounded by many others
Yet remained alone
Time passed and trials came and went
One dealt a severe blow
And the rose began to wilt and wither
Forgotten...Then... as if by a miracle...
There came a soft and gentle breeze
Followed by a ray of light
As all the other roses fell into darkness
The solitary rose began to shine
Shining with a special light...
And watered by a gentle cascade...
A cascade of love
A cascade of selfless affection
”I do... not now but forever...”
Said the rose to the sunlight
And there they remain
A rose in full bloom
With her sunshine smiling down on her...
You are my sunshine,
my life, my very soul
And I your rose blooming in the light of your love.

I love you

Just three little words
don’t seem like enough
for someone whose smile
still brightens my day,
whose touch can make me forget
the rest of the world.
They don’t seem like enough
for someone who’s always been there
to celebrate with me
when everything goes my way
and to hold my hand
when my whole world
seems to fall apart.
But even though
“I Love You”
can’t express the depth
of my feelings for you.
I hope you know what’s in my heart.
Because loving you
means more to me
than anything in the world
and it always will.

Love you

I love you like I love a day
when everything goes right
I love you like I love to lay
and watch the stars at night
I love you like I love the rain
its lustful calm embrace
I love you like I love to laugh
until it hurts my face
I love you like I love to drive
with no real destination
I love you like I love the thrill
of pure infatuation
But most of all I love you like
I love a cherished friend
Who holds me tight,dries my tears
and loves me to the end

You walked lightly

You walked lightly into my life
Captivating and lovely to my mind,
At first, I never cared who you were
Now I don’t know who I am without you,
You kissed me
I felt my world change,
You held me
I heard my heart awaken,
You loved me
And my soul was born anew
You walked lightly into my life
Now my heart knows who you are
And with every breath
And every step
I take down lonely roads,
Your hand is my staff
Your voice is my guide
Your strength my shelter
You’re passion my awakening.
You walked lightly into my life,
And all my pain
You took as your own,
And all my fears
You cast into the sea,
All my doubt
Lost in your eyes,
You walked lightly into my life
And no matter if you choose to stay or go,
My life is forever changed,
Just because you loved me
For a moment in time.
And because I choose
To love you
For the rest of mine.

Never thought

I never thought I would fall in love again
I thought my heart was safe & sharp
I wasn’t looking for you anymore
Everyone I had met was so wrong.
I hadn’t a clue when I saw you that day,
That you would walk into my heart.
I was more surprised in the following weeks
It would be a new beginning, a new start.
You are truly my heart’s desire
I’ve known this for more than a year
I may have written useless poems in the past,
I’ve cried definitely, my share of tears.
When our lips first met, it sealed out fate.
We kissed for hours on end.
I didn’t want to leave the safety of your arms
I knew that day, I’d found my soul, my best friend.
I love you with all my heart
I know you love me as I do you
We will have our memories, they have kept us warm
as we made our new memories fresh & new.
When I take your name, when we wed
I will wear it proudly for I m yours forever more.
We will begin the last journey of love together,
Together hand in hand, till we reach that golden shore.

When

When you asked me to marry you
I thought you would change
I thought you loved me enough to at least try,
Funny how life can be so strange
All the years we were together
All those nights I waited for you to come home
The sleepless nights, filled with dread,
While you were free to roam.
When you walked out over 2 yrs ago,
I wasn’t hurt or disappointed at you
When you came back, looking tired & warm
I had no sympathy for you, none I can recall.

Goodbii

As I walked into the school
People were watching us
But I didn’t notice now
I walked over to you
I touched your sweet face
I tried to cry, but the tears
they were always there.
I tasted the tears of anger & sorrow ness,
I tried to tell myself it was all a bad dream
But then I realized that dreams
aren’t supposed to hurt you.
As I leave ever,I whispered into your ears
I love you.
Then I put the flowers on the casket,
And I quietly walked out saying
Good bye.

Two-way mirror

A room to two way mirrors is my fate,
with strangers looking at me,
dissecting my body & mind
with their cold eyes
and even colder words
Forced to deal with their cynical
views of those that surround me
they entrap me in their rocks
of self-consciousness
But despite the empty stares
and demeaningly harsh words,
I untangle myself from their
webs of destroyed dreams
then, break the two-way mirrors
they watch my every move with.
I didn’t re receive a spider bite,
or a cut from the broken glass.
Instead a world of refugees like me

Nothing girl

Maybe I wear baggies
and white socks with flip-flops
maybe I don’t like listening to rave
and I’m not on the social mountain tops
maybe I don’t care a lot of things
that makes our world twist.
maybe you look at me I think,
Gee, what a nothing girl
Maybe, I like giving smiles
which seems to be a sin today,
and maybe I allow my imagination
to sometimes run away.
maybe you don’t understand this
and that’s why you can’t see,
if this makes me a nothing girl,
hey, that’s okay with me.
The world makes you believe
your personality mustn’t be detected
your face must be picture perfect
and wear clothes just the best to be accepted
Maybe I look at you
and feel sorry that you’re blind
robots you have become,
yourself you’ll never find.
God made you, as well as me
this means I am something
this world is a liar
and if I must be a nothing
for you to see it, then so be it!

Colours of God

There is always a calmness before the storm
The clouds are all darkened as they form
Thundering skies across the land
Untold signs are washed from the sand
It becomes all quiet & not a sound is heard
You can listen for voices but you
hear not a word
Then like some magical wonder from above
The angels begin to cry & send down their love
Their tears are falling for you & for me
To touch us all & to set us all free
They send down their love with such
beauty & grace
I lift up my head & let the tears
touch my face
Washing our souls from the hurt that
we feel
Washing our souls from the pain that
is real
And when they have finished
their crying all done
Those clouded skies depart to bring
out the sun.
And if you watch closely and look way high
You will see a rainbow of colors
appear in the sky
Colors of joy that are warm & not cold
God’s given promise for us to hold.

My mentor

I kind of realized that you are one
Person really close to me about whom
I’ve not written an acknowledgement, so
this one is for you…

That girl who sat on the last desk
‘Did she speak?’,
a ‘no’ was my guess
Well I get an answer after not long
And definitely, my guess was wrong.
My world in my eyes easy scattered
My feelings, my hopes were all battered
She was the one who got them together
Had it not been her, it would have been never.
I owe to her all my smiles, my pleasures
There is no way I can thank her,not in any measure..
Now she is a shoulder to cry
My only inspiration to try
There is one truth I can never defy
On her eyes closed, I can rely
She is my unbounded hopes
She is of fun an endless scope
I know I trouble her day & night
And I’m very well aware that it’s not right
But I trouble her to keep & smile
To keep my heart from breaking, that
heart is fragile…
It seems I know her for a million years
She is one to my heart so near.

Don't

The face of the guy, right in front
Who is he?
His name my memory hunts
He looks so familiar
Someone who to my heart is near
Looks in his eyes one so different
What made him on his stand so adamant
The now, the then has so damn changed
If he had to leave, why my heart did he tame.
The look on his face today
Tells me he hasn’t changed any way
The side glances, that unmindedly meet
Tell me, no me he hasn’t & can’t cheat.
The way he looked back at me.
My heart rejoiced, and the change I could see
Yes the change in the name of the relationship
It’s love but show that love is sick.
Don’t look at me like that, my heart’s pounding
Don’t give me those side glances.
Your glances are killing
I know today what you meant when
you said goodbye
It meant – wait till we can get back
and give it a better try

Long ago

Long ago in the mud
I put a seed, cause I must
But what as a child
I didn’t realize
Was that trees are not first flowers
But even thorns that,
You, can char.
Friends, are to mend
Shoulders to cry they are to lend
But that’s not the ease
Nobody today has a single face
On one front, they prompt to shane
But in their hearts, they don’t even care.
Once they get someone to hold
Towards others, they turn cold.
No more In life or friends,
I put my faith.
Live for yourself –
It has been rightly said

Can't

Today my heart is beating at a pace not normal
The relationship we share has changed,
It has become much more normal
I’m so lonely, hence nothing to do.
So called u up, wanted to talk to you
U couldn’t even say a word of sympathy
The relationship is no more, not even worthy
I can’t even try, to come to you

My love

When never I refused you anything
How could I refuse you then
I always gave you what you
Wanted at your slightest pring.
Now with your indecision I can’t blend.
My heart pounds, every time you smile
Bout your smile has made it fragile
It was your smile that used to thrill
Now it’s the same smile that
Me every moment kills.
I can’t see you with anybody
You are now & forever just mine
You I have so closely studied
That I can tell you, without
me you can never be fine.
I can bet, you are not fine today.
But there’s nobody to whom this you can say.
Come back & hold this hand when you want.
My love for you is cent percent
True, nothing that I can flaunt.

Why did I?

Greener pastures every side
Then why this black patch I have to hide
The black patch of my lonely shame
The guilt in me for my ruthless fame
The game I played on a friendship sweet
& In the process shattered his dream
Got him to lose the love of his life
Now again its me who can’t see his plight
Why did I play this game so bad
Now it’s because of me that he’s so sad.

Just

Yesterday night
After a day spent right
I lay down to sleep
But you, from nowhere, in my
Mind did creep
From no where? Yes…..
Your thought was nowhere in sight
I might have studied,
Chances were bright
But then, there was sudden guh of tears
Uncalmed, baseless fears
Why so insecure was I
‘Cause to be happy I had tried
In spite of the fact that I can
Smile
Why my grins do I pile ?
I want you to know
have you, I don’t
You are a friend, dear to my heart
Hurt you I can’t, with life don’t part.
I know I have my responsibilities
As a friend, I have my duties
But realize, I’m just a friend
In the previous relation who can’t again
blend
I’m not forgetting you
not even taking you out of my mind
But you & Me chances are very few
I love someone – u let me remind.
Don’t haunt me with the past
Memories are sickening
Move on with life, you’ll find your love at last
I was neither the end nor the beginning
I was just the one to break your heart.

The moment

The Moment I think of you
Tears weld from my eyes
Of my love for you
I’m paying this price.
People look at my eyes tell
That someone deep in my heart dwells
He’s the one whose absence kills
Everyone knows his stature no one can fill
I named my future to him
But his exit, left me with hopes dim
Just in memories, now I live
About his loss, is all I crib.
U know I’m dying every second
My sorry condition they cannot mend
The one whose name is all in my heart
Is the only one who can’t see, that
he’s shattered me apart!
Your picture in a frame I hold
My love won’t fade, all have been told.
I know, am sure, you’ll come back to me
I know you don’t wanna say, but my
plight you can feel.

Tell me why?

As a child I was taught to trust
I was told making friends is must
I was taught to love & care
With friends I was asked to share
I was shown all the beauty of life
I was given aims for which to strive
With love & lament I was reared
I say again, I was asked to love, trust
and care.
But why wasn’t I shown the dark side
Not told that in hurting other people take pride
Why wasn’t I told that actually no one dares
No one actually for a grieving one, cares.
Why wasn’t I taught that friends are a drama
Why wasn’t I told about ceaser Brutus but only
krishnaa & sudhama
Why wasn’t I told that trust is also shattered.
Why talk about rivers & not deserts ?

You forgive me and i will forgive you

U Forgive me 4 liking you 2 much
& I’ll forgive u 4 not liking me enough
U forgive me 4 missing u & I will
Forgive u for being so cold.
U forgive me 4 the loud raising of
my heart & I’ll forgive u for hating me.
U forgive me 4 playing your game &
I’ll forgive u for playing with my emotions.
U forgive me for raising u up &
I’ll forgive u for not noticing me.
U forgive me for waiting to be with u
& I’ll forgive u for avoiding me.
U forgive me having hopes & dreams
& I’ll forgive u for crushing them.
U forgive me for being pathetic
I’ll forgive u for taking rewantages
of it.
U forgiving me 4 not being able
To let you go & I’ll forgive u
4 never having lacked on.

What have you done?

No one, but me, the consequences knows
Where has my peace of mind gone?
It’s with you, that’s the way things show
I’ve lost my sleep
The entire day is now a dream
You being a major part of it
All my days have become a gnt
Not a wink hidhe past fortnight
Shows that someone’s touched
My heart with all his might
He’s taken the place of food & of sleep
It’s only, him, whom I remember
When I eat, when I breathe
He’s there in my every breath
No one can part us now, it’s
only death
Oh! I wanna sleep, give me
your lap
Just nurture me with your
Fingers till I take a small nap.

Me

It’s myself, me & only me
Now I’m all alone, as far as you can see
Don’t give me any company
People shall unnecessarily balance you with reasons many.
God knows why even these few months?
Now for solace in death, my life hunts
It was these few days, I wanted to
spend with him
It was with him, I wanted to reach my
eyes end dim
Now that him I can never get
Now that our love has with seldom met
All I wish, these few months could
fly as a day
‘Cause without him no long I can stay.
The pain is intolerable again
The hurt & agony has made me insane
But all I can do is hide it from him
Because all I want him to do is smile & grin.
He should be 1st to say- Good that she’s no more
She was the bloody one to make
My life hellish & bore
That would be the time, I’ll happily smile
He shall always be happy, but I
Would home walked away
More than a million miles
If, even, I was to live, I wouldn’t
Ask for him
Will this *** I even forget,
Chances are very dim.
Who can forget the day we stood so close
That was when I didn’t fall
In love but rose
The way he held my hand
All the time, when by my side
He maintained his stand.
When all the intimacy grew
Where has that time gone, what
Has made is screw.

Need him

When yesterday night I set up
my sleep
I was eyes awake but still in
slumber deep
Tears weld from my eyes
Yet no one hear my cry
People who claimed to be close
To stay far apart chose
I was so lonely, I was so hurt
Even the tears, my vision blurred.
My expression I myself couldn’t read
What was killing me, was it his need.
Yes, I need him, everyday of my life
Yes, this of my live is the ultimate height.
I need him besides me, I can’t stay alone
Save me from this, to heart break
I’m not for one.

Broken pane

My heart is that broken pane
My feelings, oh!
You have turned me insane
I call it a broken pane
‘Cause now its just a matter of
Pieces, all strewn aframe.
Why did you & how could you
Break my heart & be so anew
How could you be happy
When tears I had in my eyes
How could you look away
When sympathy I need from you
How can you leave me alone
When to always walk along,
this was the promise
made by you.
I know me you can’t forget
Without the either we can’t live
Then what is the problem you have met
Let me solve it for you, ‘cause
Without you, I can’t live.

When tears blur your vision

Those lovely nights
When I sat up & cried
It was after those fights
In which to break apart my world, you had tried
Those were the days
When I couldn’t eat, I couldn’t breathe
You had changed your ways
And up to you I could not reach
When not then, Then why now
If you couldn’t feel my sadness then
How can I be then sure of your love now
When that time you could walk past me
Not even realizing who am I
How can I be sure, than now when more
You’ll know its me & at least say a Hi!
Ok! Lets stop it here
If you want we’ll first be friends
But I won’t take it any further
‘cause I know where it ends.
It ends in all sadness
That is when you condemn your decision
You know someone’s finally slayed your eagerness
When tears blur your vision.
What I could never say!
If you ever get hand on this
Don’t bother to even go through it
Because you, don’t understand me
I’m only your responsibility.
Yes, just a responsibility
No, I don’t doubt your rearing ability
You taught me well, gave me food
But forgot to give me emotional security
You could not know what went inside me
What was my condition you couldn’t see
All you could see was my faults
And couldn’t humour my dignity
Dignity & the facts that I was an individual
I needed my own freedom to be
To be somebody who at least had an identity
I didn’t want to be papa’s girl or mama’s little doll
I wanted to be my own self
Someone Who could on her own feet take a stroll.
I wanted to stand on my feet become something
I wanted just guiding & not somebody to lead me holding my hand
I started finding friends in the world
Cause I wanted to see the harsh realities
But even in that you posed as *
& at every step of life, doubted my abilities
Always, my friendships you misunderstood
Cause me you could never understand
You put me under restrictions
& slowly out of my fists slipped the sand.
I couldn’t hold on to you
Time kept slipping away
Your place, I’ve given to wordly matters
My own path I’ve chosen, now that is my way
To get me back to you, don’t you try
Cause I have gone too far away
On my loss please don’t you cry
I wrote this down,
‘cause thisI could never say.
(Please don’t mind it, but this was what I felt & I had no other option but to detach myself.)

As love matures

As the season changes our love matures
his hands become more tense and kisses more dense
the feeling has no boundaries
as it is new n happy sensation
doubts get easily solved
and fights are all easily resolved
because the state of emotions mature
we stay together for longer durations
in each others embrace as we stay
we stay lip locked for hours together
our love matures as we stay
physical attractions becomes irrelevant
what matters is love and trust
for trust develops as we stay together
for love matures as we stay
ideas and thoughts are understood Unsaid
for the love matures as we stay
with eyes everything can be left Unsaid
with eyes everything seems already SAID
for patience and beliefs can be left Unsaid
as the yes say it all
as the season change our love matures
as the love matures as we stay

In you I see forever

Warm thoughts of You fill
my mind
Sending shivers each time I
picture Your face
Comforting my soul as I
remember each moment
spent with You
Never wanting to forget
each touch
Each smell.. Each taste...
When you are not near, I
think of You and only You
Embedded in my thoughts
like an addiction
Bringing a smile to my face
Visions of US together...
Holding each other as close
as possible
Not letting go of each other
In an embrace unbreakable
my eyes move to meet Yours
Searching for my comfort
zone
In You I see forever.....
A love so complete
as I am eternally Yours

Beware the darkness at my core

After the fire,
softly softly falls the rain
gently soothing trickles
reliefand healing tenderness
to ease away a memory ofpain
that searing heat of
yesterday
that intense ache beyond
belief
succumbs to time and
progress:
it dissipates away
but like with trees the ring
remains
ash black embedded in new
growth
this green covering may
deceive
that everything is the same
as lush leaves and branches
soar
and a bold new love flies
forth
though warmly it is
received,
but beware the darkness at
my core .....

Luck or life or fate?

I have looked to the
past and now stared it
in the face.
Seen its effect on me
all the years i felt ashamed.
Then suddenly from my
past came my present and
in a sudden turn of events
I can now see the gift
that I have been given.
Part of my past and the
sudden warmth of my present
together giving me strength
I don't posses on my own.
Luck, or Life,or Fate…
I just don't know
how it has come to be.
I only know that through the
mist of the fear
and the tears i have shed
I have finally found
the happiness I
have been searching for....

Eyes of an angel

eyes of an angel shine upon me
through the eyes of that angel
i wonder what they do see
do they only see hurt or maybe only pain
do they see someone without any gain?
I can't say what the feeling is inside
should I embrace it or should I hide?
Should I open my heart once more?
Will I find something good beyond this door?
the risk of life is something held dear
to not risk at all is to live without fear
to look thru ones eyes and see their soul
understanding being the only goal.
to touch your skin and smell your scent
my senses becoming warped and bent
wanting to shed the barriers and the wall
taking the first step of a very long fall
what will be is yet to be seen
soul mate, life partner , the same they do mean
holding out a hand just one last time
wanting only to make you mine

Welcome to my world

Faded memories haunt me still.
Life's a banquet, yet I can't fill.
Shattered mirrors reflect the soul,
My chameleon's secret yvil hole.
Dreams are ashes, and hopes are dust.
My guardian angel, I can't trust.
Despondent, I hear, with no choice,
From afar, that seductive voice.
Child, tell me who you used to be
and empty all your thoughts to me.
Soon, soon enough, I'll fill your void,
and seize you back, your shell destroyed.

Forever friends

you'r my friend and that is true,
but the gift was given from me to you.
we went thru moments that were good and bad,
even moments that were happy and sad.
you suported me when i was in tears,
we stuck together when we were in fear,

its really sad that it had to be this way,
but it has reached its very last day.
miles away cant keep us apart,
Because you'll always be in my heart

Show me what love is

Hiding from the rain and snow
Trying to forget but I won't let go
Looking at a crowded street
Listening to my own heart beat

So many people all around the world
Tell me where do I find someone like you

Take me to your heart take me to your soul
Give me your hand before I'm old
Show me what love is - haven't got a clue
Show me that wonders can be true

They say nothing lasts forever
We're only here today
Love is now or never
Bring me far away

Take me to your heart take me to your soul
Give me your hand and hold me
Show me what love is - be my guiding star
It's easy take me to your heart

Standing on a mountain high
Looking at the moon through a clear blue sky
I should go and see some friends
But they don't really comprehend

Don't need too much talking without saying anything
All I need is someone who makes me wanna sing

You think

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
blue skies from pain.
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.

She has me

She has me in her hold
As she crawls lightly around
The contours of my soul.

She has me by the mind,
There's no one else like her
That I could ever find.

She has me by the heart
And, so, I am drawn to her,
Even when we're apart.

She has me by the lips,
Her tongue lightly tracing,
As we touch fingertips.

She has me by the hand
And, there, she holds me close
So I cannot withstand.

She has me all alone
And, here, I finally surrender
And now I am home.

Circumstance

The spaces between
These subtle glances
Marks the length between
Us and romance.

The uncertainty that stretches
Across this expanse
Takes strength to traverse
In order to advance.

The tension between us
In this moment of chance
Is the confusion of finding
Fate in happenstance.

The diminishing strides
Between these two stances
Is the inevitable force
Of our circumstance.

My dream

Where the mountains touch the sky
Where poets DREAM, where eagles fly
A secret place above the crowds
Just beneath marshmallow clouds
Lift your eyes to a snowy peak
And see the soon- to- be we seek
Whisper DREAMS and let them rise
To the mountains old and wise
Climbers climb, it's time to try
Where the mountains touch the sky
Take me there. Oh take me now
Someway, Someday, Somewhere, Somehow
Where the ocean meets the sky
Where mermaid dance and seagulls fly
A place in DREAMS I know so well
The sea inside a single shell
Far across the living sea
A pale blue possibility
Beyond the castles made of sand
Tomorrow in a small child's hand
Only DREAMERS need apply
Where the ocean meets the sky
Take me there. Oh take me now
Someway, Someday, Somewhere, Somehow
Where the forests reach the sky
Men are equal and doves still fly
No thorns of war, a perfect rose
This is where the green grass grows
Out beyond the crystal stream
Like Dr. King I have a DREAM
Imagine such a goal in sight
For red and yellow, black and white
Whisper now, let the DREAM begin
It's time to trust the truth within
This is where we seek and find
A gift in being colorblind
Dream on Dreamers, hopes are high
Where the forests reach the sky
Take me there. Oh take me now
Someway, Someday, Somewhere, Somehow
Now, listen close, the future calls
"Build your bridges and tear down walls! "
For time has taught and so it seems
Realities are born of DREAMS
