Friendly Love...

Friendly Love...

I was cold and hurting,

Lost out in the night,

Wandering and searching

For heaven's light.

I saw the night sky clearing,

When you spread your wings,

But little did I know,

What joy you would bring.

From that moment on,

A friendship did start.

You kissed away my tears,

And sheltered my heart.

I bless the day God,

Sent you from above,

But then I grew fearful,

For I had fallen in love.

I told you this feeling,

And what did you say?

You said you liked our friendship,

And that's how it would stay.

I cried for a friendship, I thought I had lost,

But then felt your warm, gentle hand.

You then whispered in my ear,

That by my side you'll forever stand...

I Sight...

I Sight...

What does it feel to not see the golden sun,

Its rays piercing through every silver cloud,

Missing spectacles like rivers and lakes which effortlessly run,

Or the levels to which trees could grow, if allowed.

How would it be to not see the deer's love for its fawn,

The sight of a calf quenching its thirst,

To be unable to see black nights and enlightening dawns,

To not see the race, droplets of rainwater take, to reach the earth first!

To be blind to the sights of birds flying freely in the blue sky,

To miss a seedling's struggle to ascend upwards in the air,

To not see colours in full bloom in the Spring, oh my!

To not possess the gift of sight to see Nature's angry glare.

To not fathom the whiteness of milk & the blackness of ink,

To not comprehend myriad and vivid hues,

To simply contrive images in the mind, scenes simply to think,

To subject everything to imagination, just letting the mind loose.

For black is the only colour, warping and veiling life,

Always being in the shadows, always seeking a helping eye,

To only feel, never to see, every moment dipped in strife,

Life becomes a painting in the monotone, a seemingless lie.

Yet, fortunate are those who are blind, in a way,

To be impervious of the scenes of crime,

Of blood and bone, torn apart by violence, as they lay,

Of faces forgotten and obliterated by time.

Of Nature's fury unleashed by wave or in the air,

Of those buried by the shaken earth, alike,

Of those perished due to Nature's angry flares,

Of those who passed into the void because of stone and pike.

Fortunate indeed are they, who do not see the grey vicious shades in man,

To be blind to meaningless, virtuousless debauchery,

To not witness ruthless atrocities as they can

Change the very meaning of humanity, such treachery.

So those with sight, remain grounded and human,

And always extend your helping hands,

For sight is one of God's greatest gifts to man,

So help others by all means, whenever you can!

The sightless will always find someone willing to aid,

A helping hand, a seeing eye or a patient ear,

For then, the journey of life will be easier to tread,

Then, easily can they traverse, year after year!

I Could...

I Could

I could write you a letter,

But what would it say?

Could it make things better?

Would it make everything okay?

I could write you a song,

Full of love hope and grace.

Would you tell me what went wrong?

Could you say it to my face?

I could make a telephone call,

And listen as you cried

But I would not let you fall,

And if you did, we'd both know I tried.

I could make the world go away

But would that be what you like?

You would miss the golden sunrays

You would miss the moonlight.

I could stop all this pain

Bring it all to an end

The tears would fall like rain

On the shoulder of a dear friend.

I Won't Cry

I Won't Cry

You see the pain that lies in my eyes,

But, alas, my eyes are dry,

I won't cry.

No, I won't cry.

You see the anger that burns from my gaze,

The madness that sets my eyes ablaze,

I won't cry.

No, I won't cry.

You see the fear that closes my eyes,

The smile I wear is but a disguise,

I won't cry.

No, I won't cry.

You see the hope that is finally dead,

I cannot trust for my heart has been bled,

I won't cry.

No, I won't cry.

You see the love that lies within,

But I shall never love again,

I won't cry.

No, I won't cry.

You see death's hand that has glazed my eyes,

No one saw me die inside,

I won't cry.

No, I won't cry.

Like & Love

In front of the person you love, your heart beats faster
But in front of the person you like , you get happy.

In front of the person you love, winter seems like spring
But in front of the person you like, winter is just a beautiful winter.

If you look into the eyes of the one you love, you blush
But if you look into the eyes of the one you like, you smile.

In front of the person you love, you can' t say everything on your mind
But in front of the person you like, you can.

In front of the person you love, you tend to get shy
But in front of the person you like, you can show your ownself.

Then person you love comes into your mind every 2 minutes.
You can't look straight into the eyes of the one you love
But you can always smile into the eyes of the one you like.

When the one you love is crying, you cry with them
But when the one you like is crying, you end up comforting.

The feeling of love starts from the eye
And the feeling of like starts from the ear.

So if you stop liking a person you used to like
All you need to do is cover your ears,
But if you try to close your eyes
Love turns into a drop of tear and remains in your heart forever after.

Journey Of Life

Sometimes we tend to wander aimlessly,

Stuttering without a goal,

Meandering along the path hopelessly,

Searching for our role.

The paths are many, separate, distinct;

We wonder which one should we choose,

Sometimes we simply trust our instinct,

Not caring what we might lose.

We stand, sometimes, on the crossroads of life,

Waiting for one sure sign,

We waddle, somehow, through the gaps in strife,

For that's the way life is designed.

For life is made up of all the decisions we take,

Some right; some horribly wrong,

We must tread ahead, learn from our mistakes,

Only from experience do we become strong.

In one life we face choices aplenty,

For some we use our heart & others, our mind,

All will be for the good- there is no guarantee,

Only over the course of time shall we find.

Sometimes we find ourselves along a road,

But we desire another one instead,

And naught is there to share our load,

Only with firm belief can we move ahead.

Guidance & advice we find a lot,

To show us all the possible ways,

But in the end, we decide where to trot,

The choice is ours to make.

Sometimes we dare to choose unknown paths,

Knowing not what lies ahead,

We trudge along, to face later, the aftermath,

We choose to be reckless instead.

For sometimes we all face the choice

Between what is easy and right,

By listening to our heart and staying poised,

The way forward is illuminated by a ray of light.

We are simply travelers in this journey of life,

Our thoughts merely direct the way,

Our virtues serve as fodder for our thoughts,

And will prevent us from going astray.

Life is simply an unpredictable journey,

We cannot forecast the start or the end,

The time taken in the journey is for us to reach our destiny,

From the moment we are born till our end.
