What is love? Love is when I look into your eyes and see my tomorrow. No, what is love? Love is the ability to see hope through my own eyes, to see rainbows and to touch on skies, love is the ability to recognize that there are, yes, there are; so many books unread, so many souls untouched, so many seeds unplanted, so much success unattended, so much, oh so much, left to be done, love isn't always intimate, love is being able to stand up for yourself so much, that when they try to tear you down, when they try to take you to the bin, you can still manage to utter, "I am still a brand".

What is love?
I am mesmerized, oh fantasized, This beauty is something else. I am a madman, oh street man, I cannot see beyond myself. I was asked, oh lover, Why is your hair unkempt? I said, “Let her, oh bring her, For she is the cure to this ail. Those eyes, oh amazing, Those lips, oh am depressed. Why do they give me a shock? I am gone, torn and dead. I want her to know, She is that magician…they foretold.

Magician
I want you to look into my eyes, And read the signs by yourself. I want you to run deep in my senses, To see what I have for you. It doesn’t have to be anything tangible, Nor do I have to explain. I want you to get the hint, That I am here to stay. Girl, you got me crazy, With your amazing features. And I take a look beyond that, I see an amazing figure. Now don’t say am perverted, For that is not my aim. My aim is to let the world know, How much you made me insane. Your intelligence sweeps me away, And so does your endless tales. Your talks I enjoy, Even when you mock me, babe. I cannot see a day without you, I am unconsciously made. And now when the morning dawns, I see a reason to smile.

For you, my love.....
Why do I have to make you love? When your heart is so cold? Why do I have to wait for you? When you are not coming for me? Why did my heart want you? When all you do is lie? Why did I go for you? When a thousand want my side? You were a flower, so touchable, A beauty, so irresistible, But they don’t want it to happen, These people, the ones you regard to as your loved ones, Until when will we move like this? Until when will I keep these issues pending? I am tired of keeping mum, Ask them once and for all, If they don’t need me, I will walk away……..

Tears of inter-tribal love
If i'm a sunflower You are my sun Your warmth & light enlightens me & Bestows energy to my soul When you rise up I always turn to see your face When you come to me in the morning I really start growing,my darling When you come to me in the noon Floating,tossing & dancing in front of you When your rays kiss me I bow down my head and shy When your brightness hugs me I happily move and bloom When your light shades By God my face fades When you hide behind the clouds My crying voice louds When you become sad I also feel so bad When in the evening you show red light Me turn pale,old & lose my sight When you go away to home My loneliness starts killing me When you say good bye I finally wither,fall & die By shaffu ....

(((My Sun)))
It’s like I can’t keep up anymore, I can’t keep up with the ones around me, I can’t keep up with the ones that always see me wrong, I can’t keep up with the ones that bite then smile, I can’t keep up with even raising my own self, In this jungle full of snakes, Ready to spread venom, Why are the good always seen as bad? And the bad showered with praises? Why is it that trying much isn’t an answer anymore? Why is it that pain never leaves the heart? And crying has become an endless saga of life? Why do the ones we love never love us back? And the ones that admire us, we can never love? Why is it that the people we do good to always turn their back on us? Betray us, leave us in pieces, And then when we go far from their existence, They still tend to poke their noses, On what? Our business again? Still, I want to raise my head up high, Like a princess, Like a regal, I want to let them know that even when they leave me alone, Even when they take the back seats and start laughing at my loopholes, The One Above, The Scriptwriter of every story, Has promised never to let me fall down alone, And if falling does occur, The Magnificent, he has guaranteed To raise me above all their misdeeds….

I can't keep up anymore...
I remember when we first met, You were dancing in the rains, I took a glimpse of you, And I was swept away, I saw a spectacular cupcake in a world of muffins, I saw a beauty face, a figure of endless affection. You twirled and moved, You were moved by the rains, Little did I know that we were supposed to be connected, Yes, connected by strings of destiny, A soul-mate indeed, Discovered at the most amazing of sights. My soul was depleted before, Torn apart, withering and dying from lack of passion, Do ladies use innocent guys? Enough of being a door mat, My concentration was on you, the rain-lover, As you swayed your body, As you let the rain embrace your whole existence, Who does that in this time and age? You were really the one, The number one, oh my, The only one. And right now as I remember all that, I conclude, I don’t want to be a punchline anymore, For this joke we refer to as love.

The Rain
Two days of hunger one bread to feed Four mouth opens and all i hear is silence speaking from heart beat Stumbling in pain she begs not to touch her esteem compelled to live in hell she has been traded for few fins unable to endure the defeat she wimps in grief all I hear is silence speaking from her heartbeat Happy family of five they were No vain, no plea everything was lost in a blink of eye when they saw missiles coming to their street two are left homeless shedding tears in fleet all I hear is silence speaking from their heartbeat Shredded, rattled body lies in the ground River of blood flows Poverty, hunger and human are trade all around Still no one bothers Humanity has become so weak WHY ALWAYS SILENCE WHEN ARE WE GOING TO SPEAK......................
