Leave as you've done before to me

Leave for I can't bare to see you go

Leave before I change my mind again

Leave or don't because I can't stand to be alone
Shyamsi Oct 2014
Crossing the bridge to meet you.
I never knew how to please you
Enough done for the damage caused
I was never this lost.

I take my broken pieces and walk away
My mind in an array of questions with the day
The passing minutes seems to be heaving
Telling me of something I was not seeing.

I take this chance to walk away from you
Your pain I return you
I dwell away from the blues.

Did you think i'd crumble ?
Did you think i'd die ?
Did you think you could break my spirit ?
Did you think you could have me tied ?

I walk on this journey
With almost nothing to loose now
You can break my heart
But can you steal  my guts ?

I walk on this journey
as alone as before.
I don't need you anymore
Without you too
I have learnt to soar.

When you remain all alone inside your heart
Don't be afraid to fall apart.
Think of precious times when you had no fear.
The moments where I had always been near.


Deep in the soul,
there's no dying light.
But a strong being prepead to fight.

A love so lost
A path so new
I smile so I know
How to get through the blues.

No need to say "I love you"
anymore. That's something
you know from before.

Don't be scared
Don't be afraid
Together me and you
can make the world a better place.

She got up this morning.
Sun shining through the blinds
She looked herself in the mirror
Something crossed her mind.

You weren't there to see her wake
She didn't see your smile
She feels she's not seen you
Are her days worthwhile ?

Headed to work today
Saw kids running through the hallway
Looked at her plans tomorrow
Glimpsed past plans that were narrow.

She goes to sleep at night
Preparing for the days ahead.
She turns and puts her hands on the empty bed.

She got up this morning
Sun shining through the blinds
She looked herself in the mirror
Something crossed her mind.

Hope” is the thing with feathers -

That perches in the soul -

And sings the tune without the words -

And never stops - at all -


And sweetest - in the Gale - is heard -

And sore must be the storm -

That could abash the little Bird

That kept so many warm -


I’ve heard it in the chillest land -

And on the strangest Sea -

Yet - never - in Extremity,

It asked a crumb - of me

Only he knows the bitterness of love
Who has deeply felt its pangs
When you are in trouble no one
Comes near you .
When fortune smiles
All comes to share the joy .

Love shows no personal wounds .
But the pain pervades every pore.
Scars never shown
Hurts the most .

Listen, my friend, this road is the heart opening,
kissing his feet, resistance broken, tears all night.

If we could reach the Lord through immersion in water,
I would have asked to be born a fish in this life.
If we could reach Him through nothing but berries and wild nuts
then surely the saints would have been monkeys when they came from the womb!
If we could reach him by munching lettuce and dry leaves
then the goats would surely get to the Holy One before us!

If the worship of stone statues could bring us all the way,
I would have adored a granite mountain years ago.

I planted the creeper of love
And silently watered it with my tears
Now it has grown and overspread my dwelling

My beloved dwells in my heart all day
I have actually witnessed the abode of joy
I am mad with love
and no one understands the agony of the wounded.

When fire rages in the heart
Only the jeweller knows the value of the jewel
No one feels the fear of separation
The way I feel for it my beloved dusky one.

After some trepidation, a little hesitation,
I set out to search for my soul
After some stumbling, a lot of confounded fumbling,
There started to emerge my goal.

I set myself a-thinking, I had a slight inkling
As to where lay my goal
I had to look inside, confess and not hide
To find my elusive soul.

I thought things of import, reasons why I sought
To find what lay in my soul
The reasons I found, did me more confound
And I wondered what lay at my goal.

Was I good? Was I just?
Did the answers lay at my goal?
What path would I take? What would I put at stake?
Would I… be able to face my soul?

I found it! I did, it lay in front of me
An unopened Pandora’s box
Curious was I, and with a nervous sigh
I looked at my goal, my soul.

The moment was here, momentous too
I was about to face myself
Based on my glances, I’d rate my chances
And bet on heaven or hell.

I opened the box, tremendous shock!
It was too early to tell
I’m living my life, what unnecessary strife!
This project will be my knell.

Suddenly night crushed out the day and hurled
Her remnants over cloud-peaks, thunder-walled.
Then fell a stillness such as harks appalled
When far-gone dead return upon the world.

There watched I for the Dead; but no ghost woke.
Each one whom Life exiled I named and called.
But they were all too far, or dumbed, or thralled,
And never one fared back to me or spoke.

Do not leave me alone, a helpless woman.
My strength, my crown,
I am empty of virtues,
You, the ocean of them.
My heart's music, you help me
In my world-crossing.
You protected the king of the elephants.
You dissolve the fear of the terrified.

Where can I go? Save my honour
For I have dedicated myself to you
And now there is no one else for me.

To the girl who stays home
from school because shes too depressed to get out.
I love you.

To the girl who stands infront of the mirror crying
unable to fight the tears
That criticizes every inch
I love you.

To the girl ,that can't keep her dinner down
Because shes lost only two pounds
I love you.

To the girl who cries on the cold tile of her bathroom floor
With a ****** razor in her hand.
I love you .


To the girl who wears long sleeve shirt in August
To hide all the scars which memory leaves
I love you.

To the girl who pops a handful of pills in her mouth
Just to feel normal. I love you.

To the girl who watches the one person she loves
Love someone else,I love you.

To the girl who has a family which reminds her she is not
good enough.
I love you.

To the girl,who gets critiscim for being just who she is,
I love you.
I love me.

We do not get a human life
Just for the asking.
Birth in a human body
Is the reward for good deeds
In former births.
Life waxes and wanes imperceptibly,
It does not stay long.
The leaf that has once fallen
Does not return to the branch.
Behold the Ocean of Transmigration.
With its swift, irresistible tide.
O Lal Giridhara, O pilot of my soul,
Swiftly conduct my barque to the further shore.
I remain in the heart  of Lal Giridhara.
She says: Life lasts but a few days only.



Life in the world is short,
Why shoulder an unnecessary load
Of worldly relationships?
Thy parents gave thee birth in the world,
But the Lord ordained thy fate.
Life passes in getting and spending,
No merit is earned by virtuous deeds.
I will sing the praises of Hari
In the company of the holy men,
Nothing else concerns me.

Music I heard with you was more than music,
And bread I broke with you was more than bread;
Now that I am without you, all is desolate;
All that was once so beautiful is dead.

Your hands once touched this table and this silver,
And I have seen your fingers hold this glass.
These things do not remember you, belovèd,
And yet your touch upon them will not pass.

For it was in my heart you moved among them,
And blessed them with your hands and with your eyes;
And in my heart they will remember always,—
They knew you once, O beautiful and wise.

You can't reach me.
You can't break me.
I can't let you take away
from me.

You din break me,
you din **** me.
How can you reach me
if all I am is energy ?

You can't see me
You can feel me
You can't touch me
I remain spiritual energy.

You can't break ,me
you can't slaughter me
for what I truly am
Honey,you were never there
in the first place to see.

I am not who I am
I am who I'm not
A mystery or simply a beautiful truth
I am light ,I am energy
I reside in my body
I run this vehicle
I call me me me
all day long.

You can't touch me
You can't see me.
When I leave this body,
You'd wish you had recognized me.

— The End —
