I want to walk
with you.

I want our footprints
along the ocean shore.

I want you to
look at me the way I look at you.

Except that just like those footprints,
your love for me has disappeared.

(-DF-04/304/16-)
I'm feeling a bit melancholy. Who am I kidding? I'm feeling REALLY melancholy.
From the distance
I can see with my own two eyes
How much has changed
I think we can say the same thing about the deranged
But I'm not that crazy
I just have contrasting sight from the average Joe
Everything is never the same
You just have to follow along
Like it or jot

Have faith in yourself
Don’t wait for things to happen.

Move ahead along with the present moment in time
Move ahead with what you are supposed to do in the present
Move ahead with what you have in your mind
Move ahead along with the same.

Definitely everything will not happen according to what was thought, planned, designed and desired.
A few things will fall in place while the rest will take time.

Move ahead along with the present moment in time
Move ahead with all that you have got in your mind
Move ahead with what you have got with yourself in the present.

Keep in mind something will come along the way
If not an opportunity,
then definitely something similar to that,
if not better.

Till then, move ahead with what you have got to do at the present moment in time
A moment in time will come when you will realize that it was better that I continued with what I had in my mind,
better that I did not give up then,
at least as of now I know the things that need to be done.

Probability, possibility, priority, positive nature can shape and enhance the scope of future,
however in doing so always it’s better to keep in mind never give up against the odds at the present moment in time.

Never keep everything on hold,
never give up at the same moment in time.

No one knows when the right moment in time will come
Exactly when will it happen,
for as and when,
whenever it happens,
it will change everything then with regards to the future.
Till then don’t wait for that for that moment in time to come and happen in your life.

Continue with what you have
Better to continue with the same
Definitely a moment in time will come when everything will change and that will be the right moment in time
A moment in time which will change everything in the present with regards to all that needs to be done and ascertained with respect to the future.

Rita
Sullen, sultry but delectable nevertheless
She looked at me like an adjudicator
And my confidence sank way down low
I became a blubbering idiot
Whimpering like an orphaned puppy

                      Theodora
Bereft of height but redeemed somewhat by her face
She looked at me like I was the answer to all her prayers
And my disdain for seekers of things personal shot through the roof
I became this despicably insensitive yuppie living only for music
And her pining heart sent her home early upon a light breeze

                       Maria
clear complexion with the tone of ripe yellow peaches
She walked out of a shower into the sunshine like a subject of art
When her gaze touched my doting eyes I was lost forever
And my obsession with beauty and allure was well and truly fanned
I became a frequent visitor at the altar of romantic slaughter where dreams die

                        Elsie
Dark, with dancing eyes and a bobbing ***** replete with femininity
Elsie tortured me with her hungry look then huffed like she was breathing her last
My infatuation with girls that treated me like a killer of their hearts began here
I desperately wanted to reciprocate her take-me-now urges under the June sky
But alas, these things were never meant to be; she was just a maid and I was on the way up

                        Peggy
Tall and sweet with articulate eyes and a younger sister that spoke for her
She was not one to play hard to get and declared her love like it was a blessing
She made my ego grow in leaps and bounds and had a figure like an artist's model
I was stunned by her loving openness and could have tied the knot if I could
But circumstances, as always, altered cases and we went our separte ways for good

                        Clementine
Succulent like the clementine, her namesake, she aired her feelings out for me to see
She had a bigger sister who treated me like I was what her sister needed in perpetuity
Clementine and I shared a secret that we kept from my besotted cousin
My love for intrigue and convolution henceforth was my driver in matters of the heart
And I grew into this heartless beau who needed to be rescued from his own folly

And today in my armchair under the leafy avocado pear tree I sit and wonder where I lost it
A prose poem
aniket nikhade Nov 2015
If not now, then after sometime
If not in the present, then somewhere along in the future
Things will change
Something good will happen
Something better might follow
Don't give up
Keep on going.

Success was never achieved instantaneously
Success never came spontaneously
Success came when hardwork was done, efforts were made.

Don't give up, keep on going
Definitely something good will happen,
something better might follow
Till then it’s all watch and wait
Always remember, keep it in mind
A bird in hand is better than two in the bush.

Have belief and faith in what you are doing
Believe in yourself
Never give up, just because you are facing an odd
A time will come when everything will fall in it’s place
A time will come when you will achieve your aim
Till that point in time, don’t give up, keep on going.

Let it go along with the flow
Let it go out and go away
As and when, whenever the right moment of time comes it's always better to act according to the need of hour
Never think of anything else at that point in time.

Let all the anxiety, anxiousness, curiosity and thoughtfulness
Let everything go along with the flow
Let it go out and go away
Always try to be a part of the present moment
Let everything go out and go away from the mind where each and everything gets gathered one by one
Each and every element gets worked out, one after another

Let it go along with the flow
Let it go out and go away
Once and for all
Let it go along with the flow.

How do I mend a broken heart?
My entire world has fallen apart
How do I find hope in a brand new day?
When my family is keeping secrets from me I should have known my mother should have told me I can't believe the secrets they kept from me (its alright) it had to come to the light maybe not this way but it will be okay and what do you say to a child with a broken heart?
But it will be alright in the morning I said it will be alright in the morning
I wish I knew the day, hour, time my mother love went away I hope my mom will be okay I hope she find her way
I still love her even though the pain
Umm but I got to come back to me but I wish I knew the day, hour, time my mom went a astray
But it's alright its okay I will make it somehow
I wish I wish I wish I wish I knew but it will be alright in the morning.

Every day the pieces of you that still remain under my bed
crawl closer and closer to the front door
in an attempt to escape, unnoticed
and with one starving hand out the door
I ****** them up and drag them back to the home I've forced upon them
because I can't bear the thought of them dying in anyone's presence
other than my own.

My driveway
Crushed stone, over dirt.
That's all it seems to be.

But it is so much more than that.

That stone connects to the street
that street to the highway
that highway to your street
and your street to your driveway.

My driveway brings me to you.
It takes my heart, to yours.
Its a connection
A lifeline, between us.

But you don't see it that way.
You're there
and I'm here.
A while ago we might have been together.
But now
Now you don't need me
You don't want me
You've got your life
And it doesn't include me.

My driveway connects to you
It leads right to yours
But you're not welcoming me in
I wish you would.

I'm sorry the connections are gone

Await amongst the clouds searching for whom to be,
I stand here now silently entrenched with what I see,
A vivid gaze I do afford though few and far between,
The slimming wealth of all those helped desperate to reconvene,

I wont pull away yet to find grounded truths I must,
The banks on offer within the vault tears rain through the lust,
I cling to those of faith without the strength for what to give,
Is it wrong to sing along yet forget the words to live.,
