A friend so good before, Turned into a foe. Now, he holds a cellphone, And wears wrinkled brows. Comes his textmate's reply, And he would flash a smile. But when I dare to talk, He would give a tiger look. No more time for a conversation, Just busy pressing the keys of his phone. Oh, I wish I had a magic, Break the phone and make him sick. His money instead for the food, He will use it for the load, And feels so uneasy, When words "low battery" display. Chores at home left undone, Waiting for a hardworking someone, 'Cause the "busy" person assigned, Is tired of thinking a nonsense reply. Dear friend, what have you got? You know you changed a lot, Have you taken the "poison" Of your stupid cellphone?

Poison in My Cellphone
A friend so good before, Turned into a foe. Now, he holds a cellphone, And wears wrinkled brows. Comes his textmate's reply, And he would flash a smile. But when I dare to talk, He would give a tiger look. No more time for a conversation, Just busy pressing the keys of his phone. Oh, I wish I had a magic, Break the phone and make him sick. His money instead for the food, He will use it for the load, And feels so uneasy, When words "low battery" display. Chores at home left undone, Waiting for a hardworking someone, 'Cause the "busy" person assigned, Is tired of thinking a nonsense reply. Dear friend, what have you got?

Not for the faint-hearted The highest peak is Unconquerable is its tip Cold and misty, A stairway to heaven! Bold climbers ignore Step is the slope, Help is the rope, And the peak is their hope. Surmounting the rocks Resisting the freezing air Holding back against the pull of gravity Should the climbers do With the vertical That seemed infinite. Escapade began. In their heart, they held The step and hope. Crouching on the frosting rocks They moved higher and higher. 'Till they could glance At the abyss of horizons. Passing the halfway, Wild fortune they met. Wind with wrath roared. There came a snowstorm! Hope began to melt Their shriveling souls, too. Buried. Vertically jeopardized. Lives ended with the limit. Another team conquered The mighty mountain. Aroused a sense of adventure Spirits unleashed, Saying altogether, "We can!" As tightly holding the guide And pathway's light - Their nation's proud "stars ans stripes." Valiance flashed on their faces. Higher and higher they went Calmness danced with the rustling cool wind Glaring were the ice flakes Of noontime sun The journey was near to its end. Yet, a huge running bunch of snows met them. Keen climbers bombarded Explosive things. Boom! A hole was formed. They went down Into the hide site-like hole Awaited the "limit" to pass by then, it came. The hole was filled Shivering with cold Heroes bombarded again... Light rays entered as Dazzling as their smiles. Escapade continued. 'Till they stood and yelled The voice of victory, Overcoming the vertical's limit, On their success, On the most awe-inspiring place of their dreams - The earth's highest pinnacle!

I don't know what is in you That made me fall for you At first, I just admire you As time fleets, I realize that I love you. I want to get closer to you Yet I'm shy and hesitant in getting near you You're my first love, I'm telling you Perhaps, in love's game, I'm not as versed as you. When you're not with me, I miss you No other things in my mind, only you All I want to do is to search for you And have a long talk with you. For me, no one's better than you You are different, that, I told you A reason that I can't replace you I don't know what to do if I lose someone like YOU...

YOU
From all corners of life Emerged different stories Which have been buried Almost forgotten... But alas! They whispered the hearts Of the quill holders Placed a star within reach, Struck a ray of great significance, Ignited a stronger passion. And the quill did speak: "Let me be the voice, The memoirs the lyrics!" Then, all were revived.

Rebirth
A strong bond, circle of friends we were We remained a concord against the odds We shared one's cup of joy and ocean of disgrace, Wiped the tears away with mirth and joy. When one of us was almost at the edge of life Or was grieving, no space for hope and light We did understand and gave attention, Opened our arms, so one could bravely fight. A midst troubles caused by bitter tongues No one dared to leave and break the bond We rather sought ways to bridge the gaps, And weaved back the ruined web of harmony. Out of confessions we disclosed We've come to behold our hearts' dark spots With which we purged by shimmers to ponder Thus, allowing the flow to continue its course - The flow of the youthful streams of friendship. Great distances would soon divide our ways For we ought to traverse where our fate is. Before this happens, I beg you my dear friends Promise me to keep the friendship in your hearts, In its deepest chambers, sealed with the warmth of love 'Till eternity holds us fast - still foursome - Like the inseparable stars of Pegasus!

Friends Forever
A mere glimpse of you Is a gaze of wondrous spot Heavenly lilies. *** The moments we've shared Are rubies no one can steal For I hold them dear. *** Once, aimless was life Until you introduced love I learned to soar high. *** Oh! little candle I wish you'd keep it burning 'Till daylight greets me. *** Weather has to change To both dumb extremities Pen and sheet will sing. *** Truth may heal or hurt And it just has to prevail So you'll get appeased. *** My memoirs' locker Where my clandestine are kept A great, silent chum.

Haiku
Out there in that tranquil grave I saw Death, very lonely. Hesitantly, I drew near him "Why so sad?" I asked. "People offered you beauteous flowers, Lit you a lot of scented candles, Meditated you long prayers, You're supposed to rest in peace." He looked at me and replied, "Not of worth at all. I never felt nor saw they've done. I was all alone When I was still alive."
