Ram B May 2020
The dusk brings
Some mysterious peace
A stillness
Quite deep

Could it be
Because
It's that time
When I head home

Home
Where I am
accepted
And loved

Loved
As I am
Accepted
As I am.

And that brings
So much peace
To be
As I am.

Yet the sun sets
Whispering farewell
Bringing some sadness
As well.
Ram B May 2019
Let the sun go
Let the river flow
Stay

Seasons change
Moments pass
Stay

Hairs turn gray
Leaves become brown
Stay

Colors fade
Things waste away
Let our love
Stay
Ram B Sep 2018
Why does it have to begin
Then eventually end
Why do we need to know each other
Then wished it didn't happen

Why do I have to taste
The sweetness of your kiss
And now it's all memory
That's left, bittersweet

Why did I have to love you
So true, so deep
Now, all I have is pain
I can't even sleep

If I only knew
That we'll have this day
I hope I didn't have the courage
To know you, all the way

If I only knew
That you, I'd lose sight
I shouldn't have persistently asked
for your number, all night

If I only knew
That this is what I'd get
In exchange for my plea
From heaven, for a gift

I shouldn't have...
I shouldn't have.

Though in quiet moments
That I get to have sometimes
I feel grateful, thankful
That once in my life
I had moments with you

That once in my life,
I loved you.
Ram B Aug 2018
Why are there times when I feel
That you don’t really love me?

Why are there times  when I feel
That you don’t really care?

And why do you say that you do?
And then I believe you

Yet these thoughts, frequently
Come to mind, easily

Are these questions valid
Or just baseless fears?

I’m fine when they aren’t there.
I feel bad when they’re here.

I guess I can just choose
Not to have those thoughts

‘Cause they don’t matter anyway
When you’re near, when you’re here.
Ram B Aug 2018
When my world
Was whirling
I found you
In stillness
When my mind
Was troubling
I found you
In peace
When my emotions
Were too rough
You made everything serene
When I stopped
In standstill
You flowed in
When I let go
And allowed
I received
Unconditional love.
Ram B Jun 2018
In the dark I went
In the dark I stayed too long
In the dark I found pleasure
Empty, but made me company
In the dark I found despair
judgment, guilt, shame
I was alone.
I felt alone.

Then I found myself.
Utterly naked and peaceful
And I learned to love myself
as I am
without the burden of ego,
of rules and expectations

Out of the darkness
I found Light
within
and realized
that I am one with the Light,
and darkness is my friend.
Ram B Jun 2018
With closed eyes.
I am Peace.
Then my world is.

In stillness,
my world is perfect.
It is.
