Whosoever doubts you
will be dumbfounded
by your astuteness.
They will never
understand the way
of the wind
or the way
the river flows.
The way of
the honey bees
will confound them.
Neither will they
understand the pleasure
of a man
who has lost
his direction in
the wilderness and
to suddenly find
his way out
of the middle
of nowhere.
Keep your whole
life low keyed
and let people
assume incorrectly
about you.
It will keep
them busy in
advertising you.
The strength of
silence over
catastrophic indexes
are infinitely infectious.
No kind of force,
and absolutely nothing
can withstand anything
whose time has come.

This mysterious night
brings magic alive
as we watch it
pass before our eyes,
ushering in something
extraordinary into
the universe.
Night is beautiful
although danger lurks
inside it.
Horror and beauty
mingles and blends
together always in
synergy within the
depths of the night.
Subtly with effortless
effort,
the night with
love pours into
the cup of life
the light,
and the darkness,
and with kindness
equally filtering
and separating
darkness into light.
At night is
when the night
crawlers haunt,
their eyes adapted
to that sphere
to see better
beyond our
optical visions.
But the strong
silence of its
solitude beckons.
To it's presence
our being embraced,
to restore and refresh,
soothe and to heal
our tired body.
With its hypnotic
calmness it puts
our being to sleep.
There's is magic
at night time,
a wonder to behold,
displayed by nature
for us to
adore the mystery
of the earth.
Out of the dark,
the light emerged.

Risking it all
for love is
something beautiful
and mesmerizing.
Two opposite hearts
coming together
is truly awesome.
Giving your heart
to someone else
is like a
casino bet,
risking all for
the dream only
you can see.
Believing the
impossibility and
putting your life,
your whole life
into the hands
of the one
you barely know,
sometimes against
the will of
your family,
and friends who
knows and understands
you better.
But you will
definitely defy
their best
heartfelt judgement
for your gut
feelings about
a total stranger.
Most times you
win and the
heart in bliss rejoices
and sometimes
you lose and
the heart bitterly weeps.
Another really hurts
and can't even
understand why
it failed even
though they tried.
The first thing
that should draw
two people together
should be Chemistry.
That magnetic feeling
of deep respect
and attraction.
And when it
is right everyone
is happy.
But when is
it really exactly
ever right.
It is a
risky madness.

For just this
moment,
breathe.
So the little
me can rest,
from all these
unnecessary
struggles,
bring me out
to a place
of solace,
out of this
smouldering
down world
but place me
in a better
corner where
at least
for this moment
i can just breathe
a fresh air,
for this
place is suffocating.
Death and  
stagnation is here
and are
a menace to
everything and
everyone it touches.
It's presence
is devastating.
But for now
let me lay
down on this bed
of a thousand roses.
And savour the
freshness of this moment.

You can't figure
me out anymore
for the enemy
can't find
any me any more
in my new
configuration.
I am not
there for you
can't find
me in there.
Your crystal *****
are dull in
locating any me
for your fun.
There's no any
more me left
to be found,
I disappeared
instantly to emerge
a new me.
Embrace the
new me in
your awakening.
I am no
longer living in
that creepy place
where you were
looking for me.
Even though there
were things you
think were indelible
from the past,
they are now
erased from
me forever.
I've evolved
into a new creation.
Transmogrified for
a new beginning,
unexplored and unscathed.
There's no longer
any me to
be found by
the enemy.
Peace of mind
now abound.

Love beckons.
Calling from afar
to know the
heart that will
answer the call.
Another peep
into the crack
of the heart
in love,
beautifully
wrapped up
like a cream
flowing from
a silver jar
into the soft
and tender hands
of pure essence
of beauty.
She lay quietly
at the corner
of the room
waiting for her
love to return.
With the flicker
of the moonlight
penetrating through
the walls of
the buildings where
she lay down
wrapped up
in a fragrance
of a thousand roses.
With the candles
lit by the sides,
love beckons
as two hearts
reunite in bliss.
And suddenly she
kissed me as
if the sky
is on fire.
We melted together
and forgot
about the moment.
And love triumphed.

Don't worry about
what is happening
right now around you,
if the window
through which you
look out into your
world is *****,
be assured that
my flowers will
definitely show
you the mud
in my garden.
If you can't
wipe out your  
windows to be
completely clear,
how would you
see the mud
in the garden
that helped your
flowers to grow,
the mud that
gave you the
beautiful adorable
rose flower to
adorned your table.
To touch the
gold and the
diamond in the mud,
your hands must
first get ready
to feel the
dirt of the mud.
