Life is rough, life is tough, but most of all life is sweet.
Life is complex but becomes simple only when you don’t compete.
Own a style, pick a course, and see it to the end.
And devotion will bring you success as excellence make you friend.

Don’t hide your potentials for fear of failure; please let them fly.
And on wings as eagle your spirit, in confidence will forever soar high.
Give no hid to critics, what they think or say, like lilies let them die.
Be ready to take corrections though; it’s sure worth the try.

This poem is to point out the greatness in you
keep your minds on the best and your hopes keep in view.
Remind you that success comes when you endure.
Let me know what you think, if you disagree or concur
I still feel this piece is incomplete but my mind can't really connect the missing piece... Feel free to comment and make your input... Thanks.

I wish it were easy to reach beyond this hidden walls;
And whisper so tenderly to your pain.

I wish I could spread out my arms wide open;
To provide you with shelter in the rain.

I hope against hope and beyond a reasonable doubt 

That some day, this feeling, to you my heart will let out.

So I heard your night was sleepless but guess what? 

Mine was sleepless too

Not sick though but restless in deep thoughts of you.

So here is a prayer I said for you last night

Lord heal my distant princess and this sickness help her fight.
Ever loved someone so much but hadn't the chance let them know, and pray for a chance to just seat by their sick bed and whisper your heart to them even if they wont hear or understand?

It was just me my pen and pad
then you brought the platform and gave me courage to start
I had doubts, fears and thought I wasn't up to the task
But your grace brought me thus far; all I did was ask
For giving me a voice that the world desires to hear
I owe you every word my pen will forever say
As for the journey thus far, here's my only plea
If the lord had not been by my side there would have been no me
The feeling i get sometimes when I look at the wealth of potential God has placed in me.... The best expression to describe the awesome wonder is nothing but "WOW"

I could, for your sake, take trip to the middle East
Where life is like living in the belly of beast
To preach against violence and hope they all fear it
Cause your love gives peace and with the world I could share it

I could exceed speed limits to get to you in time
Switch lanes on a one way even if it is a crime
If I get run over or caught by the police
Then it would be worth being reckless loving you like this

I could do the dishes and the whole house I shall keep
Even watch the kids; to get you extra hours of sleep
If I get a query cause I was making breakfast
At least I got the chance to make my love for you last

I could break a nose or even chop off someones head
Or just displace some bones but leave them alive instead
I shall declare enemies, that despise your person
My love shall defend you both in and out of season

I could lay down my life in your stead  if I have to
It may sound crazy but I'd do it cause I love you
Don't fear that you might loose me cause true love never dies
My love's divine and would remain however fast time flies.
Ever exceeded our limits just to show that special person how special they really are and how far you could get just to make the bond last a lifetime?

Who cares if the whole world, against me would turn
And the bridges I leave behind, completely burn
There’s warmth on an Iceland when beside you I lie
So I count it gain, when my soul on yours becomes tied
You know the feeling like when thoughts just keep running through your mind without a definite direction as to where they heading?....

Why fight against the world so hard?
Does your hatred never stop?
Your poems sit here on my tongue
Like bitter lemon drops

What's shaken your compassion?
who put darkness at your core?
Do you scowl down at the paper
As you write your nevermores?

Why not try being happy
try some kindness one or twice
and shed your bitter cloak for good
defrost your heart of ice

I sit and read your poems
and I wonder who's behind
this anger oozing through the screen
but the truth I'll never find

So I say to you good lady
Get a grip, some therapy
and let a little light in
to your tower of misery.
To she I fear to name :-)
The poet sits in lamplit gloom
alone in ebb and flow
how strange it seems to write of love
but never feel it's glow

A sigh, a lie, a broken heart,
a kiss on untouched skin
yet still this writers heart it sits
uncharted deep within.

The poet sits in lamplit gloom
and stares at paper bare,
then puts to it her broken heart
and leaves it bleeding there.
