What if, the world wasn't so swift? It wouldn't be adrift and caught in an awful rift.

What if we acknowledge each other as sisters and brothers? Instead of separation we become a congregation, under God one nation.

From your eyes can you visualize a world that proofreads so there's no misdeeds, can you conceive, seems hard to believe.

A world of peace no need for police, what if all nonsense would cease? Rather than a world of corruption which has exploded like a volcanic eruption.

Greed, lust, gluttony and deceit, it failed before looks like we're destined to repeat and it's no mystery just look back in history.

What if, we get rid of the hate, swollen egos we deflate and make the crooked roads straight where love would dominate, what a beautiful world it would create.

Believe it or not it is our fate, so keep your faith for good things really do come to those who wait.

What if, we get rid of the drugs, turn around the thugs, put down the guns stop trying to live just for fun and get from under the rule of The Unholy One. I mean, how do we expect to win living by the seven deadly sins.

So think twice don't get caught in your own device or be ready to pay an extremely high price. But what if we take The Good Books advice.

We would find the true meaning of PARADISE... What If???.

If I were a person stronger than myself
My insecurities would disappear
Would you hear worried absurd thoughts
If murmured into your ear?

You would be horrified to learn
The madness running my brain
If I was less crazy my head would be too
It's a shame that instead I am insane.
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

Take me by my hand,
for one last time,
before you watch me burn!

In a foreign land,
hanging onto my last dime,
I eagerly await your return!!

Remember the day
you had touched my lips,
with a vow to not let go of me again!

But hey oh hey,
like a coin that flips,
you had left me all alone in the pain!!

A bit of peace,
in your arms so strong,
I had badly craved for just one touch!

Still afraid of the love that cease,
like the one talked about in a song,
I was willing to give you so much!!

Take me by my hand,
for one last time,
cause now I am going to a point of no return!!

In a foreign land,
hanging onto my last dime,
I take your leave as for you my heart no more yearn!!!

When will I realize that I wasn't the main character of a movie
That I can never be a part of people's memories

When will I realize I'm not a supporting character of a tv series
That I'm only important when people have queries

When will I realize I'm not a scenery nor a sound effect

When will I realize that I'm only a credit scene
The unattractive, full of words, boring, credit scene
The scene people will never pay any attention to
The scene where words are so small, you don't hear me crying
The scene where people say, "thank you for making this show"
But never really remember the names

When will I learn to love myself as a credit
When will I learn to accept that a credit is just as important
Even though I'm boring, unattractive and unwanted

inside of that bud
my affection grew
as the summer had passed

like
love learns to wait
like
love learns to listen
and
a heart
that flows like the wave of the ocean
as each time it cross on my path
it reminded me of you
sailing
across the blue horizon
does
my love for you reflects
to the sound of my soul
it tap me outside
of my comfort
that dances freely
that sings confidently
that all i can see is
the light of the sun that comes after me

in the garden
you bloom so beautifully.

I'm a wondering soul,
      That has no footsteps
To call my own.  

All you step is on imprints
                           Of the past,
Showing  you the right steps to take...

Held mama’s hand , Off to school
Ready to learn the rhymes

SOME FOLK THINK THERE CLEVER
SOME FOLK THINK THEY KNOW
ITS THE QUESTIONS WE ANSWER
IT'S THE EMOTIONS WE SHOW

A QUESTION FOR EVERYONE ?
ADMIT YOU DONT KNOW !
THEN YOU HAVE YOUR ANSWER
ONLY THEN YOU CAN START TO GROW

can anyone tell me how to love?
can anyone show me how to feel?
because from all the things I've learnt
none of it seems to be real

None has told me how to act
non one has taught me how to laugh
All the things I've been doing
were from watching, and hardly learning

memories how to act
memories how to look
don't understand any of it,
but it doesn't matter does it?

If only I was able
to understand and know
just why we act the way we do
I'd be considered normal too

So teach me how to live
my life the way i want
because without all I've never been taught
there is only mockery inside me
