When you rise up
to start your day,
To chase your dreams
Do not delay,
Grab every opportunity
that comes your way,
Because You Only Live Once they say..!

Born
I am Born
For whatever reasons Born seemed to be the most appropriate name
Camouflage or not, I don't know
But
Don't  bother asking  where am from
cause earth is round and we are all on it
With different stories
heavenly or earthly, it is what it is


When am gone
I want you to remember me as a friend
a friend who opened up to you
Good  evil, bad or worse
I am a friend who found peace in poetry

when am gone
I want you to say that
He liked to call his poems pieces
Pieces symbolized that it could mean anything
It could be
a piece of art
a Piece of love
a Piece of ache
Or a Piece of life  


When am gone
My words and my heart will be Stapled here

And destroying our home,
Yours and mine,

Stop Destroying only place
We can call home
our planet
So stop Asap!
Someone needs to stop the madman
Asap!

These words must go out.
I can't keep them in.

There was never the right time.
There were never favourable conditions.


But tonight...
The words have formed,
the heart willing,
and opportunity ripe.

Let fall the contents so carelessly...
So they may be caught by magnanimous ears.


But so many variables need to align
in sync.
So many delicate parts to click nicely in place.

Tonight was a chance grossly misread.
I conveniently indulged in signs that had me misled.

So again I swallow...
For tonight no ears are ready.
Like tiny speckles of dust
Floating in the air,
Almost invisible to the naked-eye,
Unless the light is beaming down,

I inhale your essence,
Intoxicated,
My spirit gets so high
It's impossible to come down.

Unlike pollution,
Your essence is nutrition
For my soul,

Nontoxic,
Each tiny fragment
Fills the void inside my heart;
With each breath
It fills the aching hole.

Seema
Without you
Life seems meaningless
Without you
Sometimes I feel helpless
Without you
I get scared and careless
Without you
My mood gets hopeless
Without you
My nights are sleepless
Without you
I feel incomplete
Without you
I rather not live

BUT...

You've gone
Away alone
Blown my mind
Torn my heart
Weakened my sorrow
Cheated my love
Tortured my soul
Lied on my life
Faked all the feelings
Shattered my dreams

UPON ALL THIS...

You saying, you are sorry?

when you write and the words slip off your fingers like gloves
my hands are cold
and you're writing and fingertips fly like doves
feathers fall and lay with the gloves
do fallen flames grow old?
do growing icicles always do as they're told?
When at the peak voltage
streetlights **** the stars
and behind closed doors
rumbling slumbers
down the cries of the nocturne
awakes a world of opened windows.

Home from the last show
eyes colored with screen idols
shadows huddling over supper
talk of the length and worth
the plot intrigues and intricacies
the creator's whims and fantasies
while unbeknownst the night lengthens
tiring the shadows
that excavate the trash bin's bottom
for living through the morrow.

The filaments feel lonelier
as those last windows shut down
starlight wasted
on an enveloped town.
From a time long long ago
