He blew around his Trumpet,
All day and all night
Played no good tune
Just a ***** sound
The workers complained
The women complained
The dark complained
The blind complained
Stop blowing this thing,
You'll never win a Grammy!
Months later,
A crowd clapped to a Grammy winner,
A man and his silly Trump(et)
Popular vote it was

He speaks a different language,
Lives in a different world
We have nothing in common
Yet something binds me to him
I am new to this feeling
Society will fail to understand
I wonder if he'd like me,
He's so unlike me

So drenched in work I got,
forgot to check my personal email
As I open it again after a year
here is what I see
An email from a friend
asking how I was
A wedding invite of another
Insisting me to "please make it"
My childhood pictures, an aunt shared
something I longed to see
Notifications of all my Facebook friend requests
All these I missed accepting
It seems like eternity that I opened my inbox
Only to realize, this is the real me
These are the real people in my life
Somewhere in the middle of my life
My official email became my identity
Its time to reply back to each one now
Cos' my I Pod is playing "Its not too late, its never too late"

To make me go higher,
I don't need no liquor
Music's my love
Music's my wine

Make any, it doesn't matter
Cos destiny has its own plans

You are the sun,
I am the moon
Where you are,
I cannot reach
I shall burn,
If you come closer
Yet there you are,
Oh! So far!
You give me a glow,
You give me a light
You give me a purpose,
You give me a day
Life I know sometimes is an eclipse
But it is this distance
That keeps our love alive

How do I console you?
I do not understand
You a lost your very own daughter
The pain you and only you understand
But dear brother, do remember
Your sister is with you always - in happiness and in pain
Together, time shall pass and things won't be the same
You would find a some point - the courage to live again

A revolutionary thought,
thought that provokes the mind
Is despised, hated, targeted at times
Ridiculed at times and punished at times
Yet, as years go by, it stands tall,
Tall above all
Turns into pride, of the sons and daughters of the ones who despised

T'was my friend's wedding day
Was dressed up to have a ball
We reached the venue
and beautiful was it all
The bride sat shining
and smiling most times
Her expressions so mixed,
wonder what went through her mind!
I sat through the side,
and looked all around
There was a tall guy, I noticed
A watch he had worn, on his right wrist
He had specs on his eyes
and lens in his hands
He zoomed in and out,
moved like a spy
He captured every expression
which missed the normal eye
Don't think he talked much,
he spoke through his eyes
I controlled my gaze
looked here and there
pretended to be busy
as if I didn't care
As we friends planned to gather,
gather on the stage
to click a picture with friends
the groom and the bride
I moved around the light stand
to give him a helping hand
"Thank you!" was all he said
with a hard to forget smile
I wonder why I din't speak with him?
What held me behind?
It saddens me more now,
to hear from my friend,
he wasn't from my town
and came from a far land
I will see him again though,
through pictures of this day
When they'll be posts on Facebook
Imagining him standing behind

He said :
*Who is this man and why should I care?
This is my land and don't you dare!*
The refugee replied :
*I too had a land and didn't bother for care
Until all was gone and I was left bare*
