All the things you do to me
You give me all your hurt
You fool around in front of me
Heartache I don't deserve

Was it something that I said?
Do you need to be restrained?
If it would help I'd tie you up
But, it would not improve a thing

A psychiatric ward would work
But, also rot your brain
I can't return all of your hurt
No one could handle this much pain

You're kooky with your nonsense
That drives me most insane
Yet, every time I see your face
I fall in love again

And I can't come down
I know I need it
But the Ritalin A won't do no no
The Ritalin A won't do

You gave me girlfriend and I thank you
Let me tell you she was pretty good to me
I want to tell you all this loving cost me something
But, really, was love ever free?

Oh, don't believe those ***** hippies
Not one word, because like you, they lied to me
But, I'm not judging, just a nudge then we're together
And let everything just be
Let everything just be

And I can't come down
I know I need it
But the Ritalin A won't do
No, the Ritalin A won't do

We'd make a million dollars on your actions
If you got paid what you're worth
And all your stinking playpen games please tell me
Are you through with me?
Are you through with me?
Because I'm still way too high on loving you

And I can't come down
I know I need it
But. the Ritalin A won't do no no no no
The Ritalin A won't do

So get your body over here
Because I can't come down
No, I can't come down
From a loving you
Why me, why now?
These questions can’t be answered, but changes can be made
What I think I lost, could be a way of getting paid
For all the days, weeks and years left for me to understand
That life is full of experience and experience makes a man
Like happiness, sadness is ephemeral. Nothing last forever. 
So use your energy instead to improve your future endeavors.
The imprecise nature of our real existence,
Is an approximate level of our understanding
They say a calm mind and an optimist view
Can even save a Crash landing
He held his hand high to feel the breeze
Tears in his eyes as he went down on his knees
He was happy to be alive but grieving his fate
He was lost in thoughts, in it's natural state
Ridiculed with contempt, he didn’t feel the same
He pinched himself to see if it was a dream
An experience left him with a wounded soul
His world was dead, he had lost control
His mind was confused, desperate for a solution
Chasing mirage or be an illusion
And as he gradually left the ground
He heard a whisper a faint sound
'The only weapon to fight this pain,
is to leave the past behind and live again’
Sometimes I go deep in my thoughts
So deep that I reach a different place
A place I feel much happier and free
Different things I see
Things I can’t experience consciously

Sometimes I drift away at sleep
To an imaginary land 
Where things are less complicated
And easy to understand
Love blinds the rational mind
It exist as a veil,
Where thoughts and actions are carried in vision
At times it brings laughter and joy
But pain and hurt can also be near
Romeo died for Juliet,
Shah Jhan built the Taj
To impress their feelings dear, they cared not for the world
No man , no creature could help 'em see
Love is futile for fools to be.....!
Standing up for           the cause
Grieving the
loss
Showing us no sympathy
Just Comforting words -
                "Have patience you'll be free!"
Media filtering the real news
Separating the real truth
Living more than 60 yrs in exile
Giving us Advise to reconcile
Convincing that it'll be alright


Chanting 'Om Mane Pedme Hum' every day and night
Tired of being tired of this situation  
Peaceful demonstration
Holding candles quietly
Holding banners that are loud and see people walk away BLINDLY

My Land_MY People
here's how it happens
the morning after
you reach into the drawer
where the your t-shirts live
to find it austere
you'll shrug because
you're still drunk
& you can't remember
when last it was
that you had something wet
or how long it's been
since you made the floorboards blush
or why the carpet is upset
who wouldn't be
the contents to the upended ashtray
strewn around the apartment
resemble the aftermath
of the smallest war
to ever take place in norfolk
some midnight thief
must've made off with the lighter
because it isn't in
any of your favorite spots
maybe you chucked it
along with a hundred other things
that make noise when they land
in the neighbors yard
you won't remember putting
the refrigerator's belongings
in the bathtub
or scrawling a buzzard
on the bedroom door
but then again who would
you'll pretend it's spring again
before putting on your winter coat
to go out front with a cigarette
in your mouth
you'll hope for a passing stranger
to *** a light from
or drag yourself to the corner
with couch cushion change
to buy a new lighter
and on your way
you won't bother looking back
this is just another day
on eggshells for no reason
another november
choking on birthday candles
on your way home
you step over beer cans
the kind you fell in love with
and wonder who
had the last laugh last night
or if anyone said a word at all
it might've been another
moment of clarity
it might have been some idiot savant
any adjective that feels like home
anything that keeps you thirsty
"Then we will have tonight!" we said.
  "Tomorrow--may we not be dead?"
The morrow touched our eyes, and found
  Us walking firm above the ground,
Our pulses quick, our blood alight.
  Tomorrow's gone--we'll have tonight!
