Burn the pages
start new rummages
let the flames devour the past
let it fly away with smoke at last.

From the ashes we can rise
forget the fire that dies
and ignite a new spark
that will guide us through the dark.

Start afresh, write a new book
let there be inspiration, wherever we look
with every word, with every rhyme
Carve out the truth in the sands of time.

Never give up, solve that puzzle
there’s always light, at the end of the tunnel.

We have to hope, we have to fight
and emerge from the shadows that hold us tight
For one has to go through the complexities of night
To finally dance in the dawn’s golden light.

During the silent parts of the day
the heartbeat whispers
to the yearning that lays
the longingness whimpers.

Just a glimpse
Just a sign
for the expecting heart that sinks
that doesn’t see you, then acts fine

In this yearning
love does lie
For the two hearts that are burning
live under the same sky

This distance
these miles apart
as time passes by gets really hard
because only so much away
you can be from your heart.

It's those who burn
in the fire of separation
have come to learn
that in this desperation
true love lies
for the distance means nothing
if the hearts are intertwined.

You know it's true when I say
that we are messed up
in our own little way.

We cry and complain
This is a mess
but when it's gone
our life's just too plain
We miss the madness.

But that's human nature
by which we abide
Because the grass is always greener
on the other side.

Block these lines
that come to find
all these insecurities
in your mind.

Let yourself be heard
let yourself be seen
Fly like a free bird
and break this cage that’s never been.

You are confident
You are enough
You yourself are a complement
You are brave and you are tough.

Break these shackles that hold you back
Let all of it go
There’s nothing that you lack
then watch your life grow.

Grow, to the way it’s supposed to be
The way you have always wanted it to be
Never conceal
Always feel

Be true and see what happens
Because that’s the way of life
You attract what you imagine.

I think people interpret it wrong
when someone says home
they mean where they belong

A home doesn’t have walls
it has security and comfort
It makes you feel all fuzzy and warm
it's a house that has these bedrooms and halls

Home is a feeling
you’ll find it in that one person
who’ll make you feel warm even when it’s freezing

With each other
you’ll argue but you will also care
You will cry but then also learn to smile
with each other, everything you’ll share

You will have lots of adventures together
from dealing with life, to maybe visiting Rome
But no matter where you go, for always and forever
You will have this person as your home.

Everyone dreams
of a happily ever after
But nobody asked, it seems
what happens there after
Maybe they forgot
to add another chapter.

Prince charming left Cinderella
and went to be with someone else
He found some other Bella
He was always like this, someone tells.
All that they cared about
was if the shoe would fit her or someone else
Then there would be no doubt
There are going to be wedding bells.

But this is real life, not everything can be perfect
Like in a fairytale
Things won’t turn out as you expect
right down to the very detail.

But it is your story
It’ll be as you write
Love in itself is a fairytale
if you play your cards right.

Don’t be too fast
let the flow take its course
Let it happen organically
let there be no remorse.
You will smile, you will cry
You will succeed, you will fail
Just don’t give up, and always try
You will definitely create your own fairytale.

It was hate at first sight
They were complete opposites, with a starking contrast
Every small thing would ignite a fight
and their egos were oh so vast.

If one liked coffee
the other preferred tea
and on anything literally
they could not agree

They were like the sky and the sea
Always taunting each other
Yet working in harmony.
Just like the sea reflecting the changing colours of the sky
They always walked in parallels
never meeting eye to eye.

Together after spending a while
As time went by
their arguments turned to banters
always ending up in a smile,
They finally saw eye to eye.

And maybe what they say is true
That opposites do attract
Because I never saw the sky so blue
and the sea so calm in fact.

With each other, I guess
they had started to reason,
and that is how the sky and the sea
Eventually met at the horizon.
