Dear God, why create me this way??, Another Being for the world to sway. God do you even listen when I pray??, Lend me your ear I’m in disarray Lend me your hand my soul breaks away. Lord, I’m tired of pretending to be okay, weakened by every obstacle you throw my way My heart hurts it’s on the verge of decay This life you’ve forced on me and I’ve fallen prey, victim from the very first light of the day Sad and sorry I have to say, anything I owe I’d be happy to pay But I’d rather be far away, than live in this world for another day.

Prayer Drop
And I remember watching that stupid movie It had so many awards Nothing scary had happened but the darkness it projected made me anxious You held me You held me during You held me after But even then, Though comforting, I still don’t love you

heaven-sent
I enjoyed a world only I could see, in a way only I understood You came to me and spoke words we both knew About a world only you understood Each time we talked and in each your smiles I could see how hard you tried and how with every word with every smile, you tried to stir my thoughts Ever so slightly towards your world, away from mine Towards your definition of sadness, away from mine My sadness you never understood, and It never left The proof that I didn’t belong, the cause of your pity I am happy, even without your smiles Happy to be different, happy to breathe, to think, to live Happy to be sad, Sad to be lonely, but happy to be me

His Sadness -- Epilogue
He sat away from every one, he talked to no one Not saying he was, but he seemed lonely Not saying he was, but he seemed sad Out of empathy I went towards him Because I cared I talked to him I smiled and I shared the joy he so much seemed to lack Each time we talked, I smiled. He inquired and I answered His interests, his dreams Everything I could understand and everything I couldn’t I accepted and in return I smiled I smiled and I shared the beauty of life.

His Sadness
I have known you for a while now Unable to tell you what I think, to reveal my feelings Witnessed our relation become awkward and our conversations turn to greetings Unable to reach to you with me words, unable to understand those said to me we talked through writings, I tried to talk and share more but we were never close enough for me to share all that I stored Random chitchat and deep feelings, but I have found a way To write down these thoughts and emotions in a way that pleases the soul I am still unable for fully comprehend all you try to convey But let this once the beauty of my words bewitch that heart, I have so long wished to know

I now see how frail was the link that binded us How much effort we all put in to make it seem easy to be with you all I am now far from then, drowned in new voices,pleased by new faces unknowing of what they think when looking at me I now only endure this new reality awaiting the bliss of slumber living in a past which is now all beauteous trying to remember the moments I was then unable to forget You are all now gone,left behind or forgotten And I am left wondering how easy it was for you to make new ones.

Friends
I now and then have this feeling, different from the overwhelming sadness, the comforting joy and happiness from enjoyment. It makes me forget my troubles or rather I feel that way when I do forget them, about the happiness, sadness and injustice, when I am no longer human and the beast within me vanishes. Then sin exists no more and all is beauty, I become a mere watcher and I observe with wonder the fullness of the creation, which I cannot and might never fulfill to conceive. Then with sadness, I am flooded as the feeling is swayed, slowly but surely and I am back to being human, weak, emotive and conscious of that. Then that feeling retreats deep within me, in parts unknown to my conscious self now all I can do is live on and hope that feeling engulfs me once more.

The Feel
We sure felt alot, Sorrow, grief, guilt and a little of joy; Each was a different experience, different voyage; We were Humans, Not of those who each day die, Rather each day was a new life; But one was differnt, wonderful emotion, Unique, above all.Love; Love made you smile, Love made me cry, Love made us guilty, Love gave rise to all, fragile, weak being, shortlife who changed us; It was special, A second in love became years, And years loving you was a wonderful day; When all was over, it was like nothing had happened, But when I looked at you and you at me, In the time of a heartbeat, We felt that stream of feelings flow through us, Yes, we once lived.
