I am Silence
You were pushed
Too far
Gradually fading into the background
How can she speak,
When she was never spoken to
And I hate you so much; Mr Silence

I am Self Hatred
You make feeble, pathetic attempts
At expression
It all comes out wrong, left misunderstood
She feels tense, unable to choke out a single word
As if she was gagged, tied down
And looked down upon
She feels you inside of her; Mr. Self Hatred

You all have her submissive
Enslaved, she is so tightly bound
She screams, it's no use
You have made her mute
Beat me, hit me, torture me
I'm broken down as far as I can go
She crawled on the floor, stepped on, spat at
She was worthless
We are one now; Mr. Worthless
LET GO



I’ve learnt about Love by letting go
To accept the justice of fate
Know loss without hate
For the Love that I searched for
is the Love that I know
Now ‘I’ can grow
beyond limitations previously set
‘I’ knows I'm not there yet -
but I'm going
Growing
Not slowing
The rate is increasing
relative to my releasing
this fear projected fleecing

I've learnt about Fear by letting go
To look at things that scared me
Made me slave instead of free
Locked me in my carbon steel cage
till I willed to turn the page
to see what's on the other side
Why we've lived
Why we've died
What they said
How they lied
and kept a candle burning
to keep us from turning
to see the real
Light of Love
from Within
as Above.

Miraj
From earth's *****, he rises with glory
conqueror of shadows, the young morning sun
through nature's children, he tells his story
the mortals rejoice of what he’d done.

The first laughter comes from the flowers
While birds starts the song of the morn
And Dawn is rendered in full raw power
In his wake, a new day is born.

Upon the hour, when he is no longer young
His freedom slowly changes into pride
His fiery rays mocks the bird’s song
Softness and contentment finally divides.

Then the illusion appears
As everything he touches becomes a shadow
His own creation, thwarts him clear
Like a very treacherous foe.




And by the passing of day
His pride slowly subsides
yet he has a lot to say
But in whom shall he confide?

The answer came out easy
When a calm breeze swept his land
the birds returned home, and the flowers busy
to pray for the next dawn, hand-in hand.

The setting sun had the same innocence
That presented the beautiful dawn
For dusk speaks through his fading presence
With the same language that started the dawn.

The shadows were exalting at his departure
Until they too, felt the call
Broken were their form, and structure
When darkness consumed them all.
To have faithfulness
To have kindness when it is
Easier to not
To have true sympathy as
Well as empathy
Sometimes I cry
Not because I'm sad but because
I can't take this

Sometimes I smile
Not because I'm happy but because
I'm tired

Sometimes I yell
Not because I'm angry but because
I'm losing you

Sometimes I laugh
Not because it's funny but because
I've got nothing else

Then sometimes I think
Not because I'm wondering but because
I already know the truth
