This love is a little game we play

       It has no end
       There's no escape
       You hold all the cards
       And the way you stack them
If they were to fall they'd bury me alive
          Deprived from your kiss
It's the only thing I'd miss
     Not even breath or the sting of my wrists from when you hold me to your rules
                And no matter how many times I go broke trying to make you smile
       I'll always pay the dealer even if it takes a while
I twist around the aches in my heart
Dodging and skipping past
The three little things that tear me apart
I feel guilty with every smile
And every time I laugh
My sides burn like I walked a mile
Not even in my own shoes
And I'm so tired,
But there's nothing more I can do
I've tried, so many times
Sometimes, I cry myself to sleep at night
Those faces flash through my mind
And I can't even tell
If it's a dream or a nightmare
Not even sure anymore
If they even want me there
Or if they even remember my face
But he keeps playing this game
Acting like I'm the one
All in a rage
Yet, he's the one turning them to pawns
And every morning
About the break of dawn
I wake up and for just one moment
I forget that they're not here
And then it finally hits me
With a steady flow of tears
Thinking back to all the years
They were constantly by my side
And now I just wanna hide
Bury myself inside my mind
Let my death by broken heart
Take its sweet, slow time

Trapped in the cages of catastrophes, My wings, flutter in hopes to fly in the
blue skies once again.
Dealing with the blight of long-ago,
Fighting the agony.

The whisper of my voice deafens the sound of the loud,
Yet those words were as quiet as the heart that beats no sound.

The thoughts of failure echoed in my mind,
And with heartaches and dejections, it leaves me blind.

Sometimes, I’m the artic wind,
Which whistles through the desert, breaking the night.
And sometimes, I’m the highest tide
Majestic yet so destructive with a crucial sight.

I wish upon the moon, and I count upon the stars.
For the path, I want to walk on with pride-light and a spark.

I know...

Somewhere along this stormy way,
Lies the hope- untold
That I'd never give up on, they say.
For the truth is crystal clear, and bold.
Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird,
That cannot fly.

how do i
figure out
things that
have gone astray

how do i
filter out
the good
from the
decayed

and how do i
get out
from the
shackles
of yesterday

dear oh dear
how do i
breathe
without hearing
your name

tell me, tell me
how do i
how do i
make you want
to stay?

and in a single look
   with no words spoken
     more was said
         than in an eternity of conversation
            and whispered proclamations

Just    Thoughts
        in a drop of tear a world to see
        in a drop of rain joy to be
        in a tick of a clock eternity
        in a single cell life to be
        in a touch of feather hearts be shy
        in a single word the spirits to fly
        in one friend a world to see
        in a wink of an eye love to be
        in a ray of sunshine warmth in heart
        in stars twinkle joy be got
        in a single flower love to tell
        in a smile to cast a spell
  

        Little in tis world
       yet a lifetime of thoughts

Passion a flame for love to light
A melting heart shining in eyes bright
Her hands hold me in a sweet delight
Passion a flame of hearts to unite
Sweetness in a lips that kiss
Dew and honey a brew of bliss
In her arms love to fill an abyss
passion set on fire of hearts that miss
The beat of heart heard in her chest
A child in heart suckling breast
A song in her cry of love doth rest
passion of woman tease and test
The star light diamonds on sweat
love in a night days pain to defeat
passions fire calm in times treat
In her arms a shell to retreat
the tune of joy mellows to an end
the stars a silent witness in ****** spent
the beat of heart in a night breeze to blend
wishing the flames of passion never to end

A day begins for the ride
A steel horse by his side
Turn of the key the engine sings
A bird fluttering it's wings
The view ahead laid wide
His heart washed by sea tide
Away from city miles
Far to nature's smiles
Singing a new song
destination unknown and long
To uncharted roads far
Till the night  brings a star
Man and machine soul one to be
My wings my steel horse ride free

On the run for refuge

His family and burden huge

The sky his shelter

His bed made in heather

Is there a tomorrow 

away from his sorrow 

what doth humanity gain

Humans inflicted in pain

Chained to nations fence

Human heart seeking defence 

To the refuge they run

Wrecked life under sun

Seeking open gates wide

Souls weak a shelter to hide

Tis earth created not by hand

God the one made Tis land

Yet nations fail their own

A fence destroying their sown

wars waged at human cost

Stop we plead for life lost

Unite may Tis world join hand

For refuge every man's land
This is for all the people who has to run away from their country for their safe
Their own fence failing to protect them

Bricks and bats welcomed but if we can create every man's land so many lives will not be lost

When you are down
ill turn to a clown
when you do cry
ill send a smile to fly
when you feel upset
ill wish u have button to reset
when you are alone
remember two comes after one
when you see the roads end
remember its just a bend
in life out of the few that never end
its the love of a true friend
To honor few who stood by me near and far

A moment of silence and a candle to light

Memories in the heart glow so bright

A day to honor the Life Lost

Only tears to bear the cost

 

Soldiers of life for dream to fight

Laid shattered in vengeance might

Neither a gun nor a knife they held

Dreams and Love lay dead

 

Out of vengeance a damage done

Could time be turned to make it gone?

In the rumble the deaths pain to hear

Echoes still with loved ones near

 

If ideology gives a right to ****

The earth's grave will fill

If ever a promise to be made

To honor the innocent life's laid

 

From every heart a love to share

With every hand a gesture to care

In every heart a candle to light

Love and care our weapons to fight.

Oh what doth in tis world i seek

tis heart so frail and weak

in the deepest forgotten corner of mind

clueless of the memories to find

a treasure of gold I doth not want

painful past of life in heart doth haunt

to gain the whole word wide

yet what doth tis heart hide

the love to live in thoughts doth fade

in moments of hatred man made

moving on to make peace with life

awaiting to end tis painful strife

In paths i walk with unknown end

yet to turnback in memories of days spent

lost a rudderless ship in a stormy sea

letting go the hands of fate to lead me
