Brighter than the stars in night,
Yet darker than the fright
Your smile is as breathtaking
as the aurora's of North side;

Just know,
You'll  be lured, attacked and get trampled,
By the ones for whom you sold,
Everything to keep them closer,
But before you know this wish will be over,
And they'll move from your ruins to search for another;

It'd have been still alright,
if that shattered wish was the realization of you being used,

But born under the fool's star,
you feel guilty for having them lose;

So you pick up your scattered pieces
and run after them;

Then there's your family,
your daughter and wife,
Whose warnings you don't listen
nor see their burning compromise;

But you still have the nerve to
ask them to adorn the enemy's feet
with the rubies of their broken temple;

                                      …(to be continued)

I still remember that cruel summer
How your ocean eyes distracted me day and night,
Knowing you were so close
yet still not mine;

A night as young as us,
A pair of aqua blue iris
like a mysterious magnetic force
Drawing me deep,

Untangling the messy knots of my head
And relaxing me more than just a little bit;

My mind was at ease though my heart was pounding crazily,
That's when I got to know what love meant actually;

It wonders me
That how she understands me so well,
But sometimes it also bothers me
that her reasons are always right,
The reasons I don't want to easily accept;

It amazes me
How good she is with her patience,
The patience with which she works
To make our lives smooth,
Care for us despite our attitudes,
Keeps herself sane amongst difficulties
and never ending evil moves;

Once she was also someone
Who didn't know what 'difficulties' mean,
But today life made her that someone
who'd do anything just to keep
her family's life 'easy-going' ;

Sometimes it makes me angry
That how she is trapped in her
web of love for us,
How she sacrificed worldly greater choices
for the sake of our happiness
is simply unjust;

But she has my admiration
For how
She embraces her husband's family
as her own;
How sacrifices and compromises
became her structural bones;

She has done so much
Endured so much
Loved so much
That we can't repay her in a lifetime,
All we can do is at least be grateful
to that woman who saves our lifelines;

If I were to write about her life
and the amount of things she sacrificed,
I'm afraid words will fall short
To describe the amount of hardship
she endured ;

I've seen all the seasons gracing her life,
I've seen her through thick and thin,
I've seen her selflessly caring;

Though her inside burned alive
I've seen her putting on her best smile
Just to make our happiness worthwhile;

I've seen her loving nature and humanity,
I've seen her respecting opinions
without holding any grudge,
I've seen her boldly siding honesty
Ignoring criticizing whispers and
the comforts she deserved;

And I'm grateful to the Almighty
For sending me to her,
I hope I'll be able to give her every
happiness she deserves
Because she is my mother
The biggest blessing of all
I've got;

This is something I can't defy
That none can help me but I,
There's nobody I can rely
To help me
To console me
To encourage me
Like I do;

You're a mystery,
You're a surprise,
You are a wonderful blessing in my life
That keeps me wondering;

She's calm and quiet,
Yet fierce and scarier
than one's fright;

Now,
When we're holding hands and walking on the shore,
The wind danced around us while I mirrored your smile
and held you close;

And I saw my lost kingdom in your eyes,
Then I knew you had my heart
for the eternity
To be precise;
