I thought and thought But let it park For the earth itself- is a big question mark. Why does it go round- around the sun? Any intention? Or just for fun? Won't the people from Russia  come tumbling down,  and Fall in Malaysia  and mess up the town? How come the Earth started-  moving by the way?  Someone pushed it someday-  and it just rolled away? How does it move on  dodging the stars?  never collides with Venus  nor with Mars. Yeah! the earth is weird  so I better stop thinking  Before it drives me crazy  I am giving in. 

Can't you hear them wail? Can't you see in those innocent eyes- A plea for help? I can. Don't you have a heart? Don't you feel that pain; excruciating? I do. Are you even human?yes?  but I don't see how? A boisterous monstrous breed you are camouflaged by a human face;  slaughtering innocent lives and butchering hopes and dreams. And here I am, faint hearted crushed by my convictions handcuffed by laws and bound by the fences deafened by those silent screams trying in vain to help, still helpless.    

I am lost in the pages of the book I adore but I swear this has never happened before. I can't find my way back, not that i want to; stay here put? oh! that I would love to. It's amazing to dive in these word mines but I think I have crossed some 'story lines' I pushed the lead aside, now I kind of rule this earth and all the mean ones in here have been stabbed to death Everything in here seems way too good I  took the 'draught of delight' more than I could but how can I live here smiling, for ages,  pull me back, I'm somewhere in those unread pages.

I deeply wish it was only a lie, told to me to make me cry. I'd give away anything I own, just to hear it was all a lie don't you see, it really hurts? please tell me it's just a lie. Thoughts linked to her sweet memories,  I sit here still blinded by her face; her last words still echoing in my ears- "you take care and better be safe". cursing myself , I wish in vain if only I had told her the same. I know people leave and I can't help, I know my tears couldn't bring her back, I know I'll never see her again but it's wounding my heart and it can't be healed and  still I am yearning desperately to hear 'she's not left, it was just a lie'.

Hey, hope you are doing well  Been busy nothing much to tell.                  I miss you deep from my heart I wish time’d never split us apart. Bit of a stubborn bragging about your new toy? Shedding fake tears for gaining a piece of joy? I wish I could be so naïve and care free as you are, Then I’d’ve never known what the world is really like. At times you make me jealous you see, You’ve nothing to care about, you’re always free Loved by all and you do love them all You’ve never known hatred and betrayal at all. I wish I could ‘board the time’ Join you there and be who I really was. But it seems I’ve travelled so far And the door to your world is never ajar. You dream about scaling heights a lot You wish to grow up fast but you’d rather not. If it’s growing up’s what has made me this Stay where you are amidst the bliss You are what you

Say “sorry I don’t agree” Then you’re out of the team, For they don’t like people who think of their own. Say “I think you’d better do this” Then you’re the worst thing that ever happened, For they don’t want people who’d give them a better life. Say “guess what? I won” Then you suck little looser, For they don’t like people who scale great heights. Say “don’t be that cruel, just let it go” Then something’s wrong with you, For they don’t make out people who are kind at heart. Better be good and left alone Than pawn your mind and be one of their kind, For they don’t want friends but hearts to play around.

  It hurts when your words Possess no form; Your hidden words like thorns Prick deep in my soul. Crucified by your silence I cry in agony. If I ever made you mad Just fire it off; No matter what you say It won’t hurt so long. If you are troubled Just let me know; I’ll be glad to help Just so you know. You keep silence for ages And I’ll be dying inside. Once your words are mute, I tend to hear them in vain. I’ll drown deep in woes For the rest of my life.

Sorry that I bothered you I asked you to help, you sure did But trust me I didn’t have the faintest clue it’d bother you My apologies Everything was a mess, I was in total fuss I was pissed off, but you came up with a joke Sorry that I didn’t find it so humorous My apologies Forgive me for sticking to what I think is right I never tried to fit in, betraying my conscience I was only being myself, no offence My apologies I deeply regret for being such a prat Being honest to whatever you asked I thought I was supposed to say what I think, not what you like My apologies I beg your pardon I was over concerned I just wanted you to make right choices But you were right it was none of my business My apologies I trusted you, you turned me down You made worst things happen in my life Sorry but that won’t make me hate you

They lived a happy adorable life Everything seemed to be perfectly alright They were two bodies with a single soul Everything else meant nothing at all In the surrounding savannah they built their own world ‘the burrow it is’ that’s what they called But the fate played a cruel game And when it did, it was never the same. It was death which ruined it all Yes, it had come to suck their soul It came into their lives like a wild tempest The doe panicked and lost all her zest All she could do was run, and run. But death chased her like it was some sort of fun She stopped and muttered ’everything’s well’ she closed her eyes, and there’s nothing more to tell. "No! No! No! No! No! take me instead" Begged the buck “isn’t that what you need?” He could do nothing but yell For it was done, the death was that cruel. The death

I saw a wonderful   dream one   night There popped up a land which was a feast for my sight. I was strolling in a forest At the break of dawn, And was feeling all alone In that world unknown. Scarlet gems were piled up like building blocks A stream of water then burst out, struggling with the rocks. Landing on the lap of the earth, It went clear and calm; A bevy of beautiful mermaids Towards the shore they swarm. A pack of lions were passing   me by As they vanished from sight I left out a sigh. A group of giraffes, Who held their heads high Were conversing with eagles Who seemed floating in the sky. The trees were all wearing floral gowns Dancing at the tune of the wind, wearing clouds as crowns. Chirpy glittering birds Who were cuddly and wee Were roaming around And zooming past me I closed my eyes, sprawling on

I think, I act in my own way I do hear what others say If I strive to do something I find no point in whatever you say I won’t do what you want not that I hate Sorry to say but I’m too obstinate. May be my heart is too kind But it’s hard to please my mind You plead for hours months or years But sorry I never listen to my ears. I won’t do what you want not that I hate Sorry to say but I'm too obstinate.  You flatter me, do whatever  I really do not care Words, they can never cheat me How sweet they might be I won’t do what you want not that I hate Sorry to say but I'm too obstinate. Sometimes I am too shy And it’s easy to make me cry But remember one thing I am never weak I am damn strong than you think I can’t do what you want not that I hate Sorry to say but I'm too obstinate. I won’t like to be told What to do and what not to I follow my heart all the time None can change me I’m what I’m I won’t

                  

Honesty is good, be honest and you should. In chains it matters; but really it shatters- all the bonds and 'ships' and hatred it reaps. Innocence is betrayed by the confusions that are made. why opt for doom and loss that mere words can cause? Truth is always best but don't be a pest; If it brings nothing but violence be confined to silence.

    The moon told the sun “wake up mate, Come on make it quick You are already late” “oh! give it a rest, My dear old friend; Me being late, The world’s not going to end." “The lord of time! Are you saying this? I don’t believe it!  Said the moon with a hiss.   “off I go then “ Growled the sun. “but let me tell you something Before I go on my run. You look dark and gloomy And out of zest. Are you ill again? Go and take some rest.”    The sun strolled in the sky All the day. With his bright gaze Shooed the clouds away. After two long   days The moon showed up. The sun waved at him “hey chum what’s up? Back on duty Just on time? I wonder how you do it? Without even hearing a chime!” “habit" said the moon Beaming at the him He was back in health But still very slim. “The whole wide world finds the time in me; But the
