Io stongo 'e casa a 'o vico Paraviso
tengo tre stanze all'urdemo piano,
int' 'a stagione, maneche e 'ncammisa,
mmocca nu miezo sigaro tuscano,
mme metto for' 'a loggia a respirà.
Aiere ssera, quase a vintun'ora,
mentre facevo 'a solita fumata,
quanno mme sento areto nu rummore:
nu fuja-fuja... na specie 'e secutata...
Mm'avoto 'e scatto e faccio: "Chi va là?".

Appizzo ll'uocchio e veco 'a dint' 'o scuro
Bianchina, ferma 'nnanze a nu pertuso
'e chesta posta! Proprio sott' 'o muro.
Ma dato ch'era oscuro... era confuso,
non si vedeva la profondità.

St'appustamento ca faceva 'a gatta,
a ddì la verità, mme 'ncuriosette...
Penzaie:"Ccà nun mme pare buono 'o fatto:
e si Bianchina 'e puzo nce ne mette,
vuol dire qualche cosa nce adda stà".

E, comme infatti, nun m'ero sbagliato:
dentro al pertuso c'era un suricillo
cu ll'uocchie 'a fore... tutto spaventato,
...'o puveriello nun era tranquillo,
pensava: Nun m' 'a pozzo scapputtià.

Tutto a nu tratto 'o sorice parlaie
cu na parlata in italiano puro:
"Bianchina, ma perché con me ce l'hai?
Smettila, via, non farmi più paura!".
Dicette 'a gatta: "I' nun mme movo 'a ccà!".

"Pietà, pietà, pietà! Che cosa ** fatto?".
E s'avutaie 'e botto 'a parte mia:
«Signore, per piacere, dica al suo gatto
che mi lasciasse in pace e così sia!".
"Va bene, va', Bianchì... lascelo stà!".

"Patrò, trasitevenne 'a parte 'e dinto,
che rispunnite a ffà mmiezzo a sti fatte?
Stu suricillo ca fa 'o lindo e pinto,
mme ll'aggia spiccià io ca songo 'a gatta,
si no ccà 'ncoppa che ce stongo a ffà?".

"Va bene, - rispunnette 'mbarazzato -
veditavella vuie sta questione,
però ccà 'ncoppa nun voglio scenate;
e ricordate ca songh'io 'o padrone
e si rispetta l'ospitalità".

"E inutile che staje dint' 'o pertuso,
-'a gatta lle dicette - chesta è 'a fine...
Si cride 'e te scanzà, povero illuso!
He fatto 'o cunto ma senza Bianchina...
Songo decisa e nun mme movo 'a ccà!".

"Pietà di me! Pietà, Bianchina bella!".
Chiagneva e 'mpietto lle tremava 'a voce,
cosa ca te faceva arriccià 'a pella.
Povero suricillo, miso 'ncroce
senza speranza 'e se pute salvà!

"Va buo', pe chesta vota, 'izela 'a mano,
cerca d' 'o fà fui stu suricillo,
chello ca staje facenno nun à umano,
te miette 'ncuollo a chi à cchiù piccerillo...
Embe, che songo chesti nnuvità?".

"'O munno è ghiuto sempe 'e sta manera:
'o pesce gruosso magna 'o piccerillo
(mme rispunnette 'a gatta aiere ssera).
Pur'io aggio perduto nu mucillo
mmocca a nu cane 'e presa; ch'aggia fà?".

"Ma cosa c'entro io con quel cagnaccio!
Anch'io ** una mammina che mi aspetta:
Gesù Bambino, più non ce la faccio!
Nella mia tana vo' tornare in fretta;
se non mi vede mamma mia morrà"»

'O suricillo già vedeva 'a morte
e accumminciaie a chiagnere a dirotto,
'o core lle sbatteva forte forte,
e p' 'a paura se facette sotto.
Mm'avoto e faccio 'a gatta: "Frusta llà!".

'A gatta se facette na resata,
dicette: "E se po' iate int' 'a cucina
e truvate 'o formaggio rusecato,
pecché po' v' 'a pigliate cu Bianchina?
Chisto è 'o duvere mio... chesto aggia fà!".

In fondo in fondo, 'a gatta raggiunava:
si mm' 'a tenevo in casa era p' 'o scopo;
dicimmo 'a verità, chi s' 'a pigliava
si me teneva 'a casa chiena 'e topi?
Chiaie 'e spalle e mme jette a cuccà!

I'm feeling kinda hollow,
It's a little hard to swallow.
Still Im in the lead,
So everybody follows.

Hate it all you want though,
There's no time to wallow.  
tell me what you need,
You just found that ****,
Waldo.

I don't even buy blow.
I just ****** snort it,
Gatta cop it from the *****,
That always seem to hoard it.
know they can't afford it.
I Wonder how they scored it.
Then I took four hits,
Got drunk and stole a forklift.
I don't give a horse ****.
I just want some more ****.

Got weird for a
few days,
Brain fried till my
eyes glazed
Smoked a little
more haze,
Screamed **** the pigs ,
Got tazed
strapped on my rollerblades,
And streaked out,
the VMA's

I don't give a ****,
Like a ******* Atheist
don't believe in luck,
Call me the ******* catalyst.
Some of my favorite ****. It's fun to go out of the box.

I am tired of being torn
But inside I know im being warned
I gatta choose, but this feeling inside wont let me loose
I got a real good man in my life, takes care of me and treats me right
Shopping sprees, trips around the world, **** this man even buys me diamonds and pearls
He spends quality time with me and when im down he makes sure that I don’t wear a frown
But I have a secret that’s so bad, being torn like this is so dam sad.
I got a man in my life who wants to do right
And a **** who loves on me every single night
Bald headed, Strong, muscular, ****** chocolate
Tall, dark and handsome
tattoos all over his body
Tongue ring in his mouth and when he kisses me all over he makes me tremble and shout
DAM I love u boo!
I call him my mandingo cause he’s so true
The *** is so good, tears roll down my eyes and I cry tears of joy
And wish he would never stop and for a moment I think im in love
Forgetting this ****  aint nothing but a scrub.
He’s a hustler, gangsta, liar and thief
I said all those bad things but still he makes me weak
I got a good man in life he just proposed
I don’t wana  loose, but this man  he gat me so confused.
And now im pregnant, and I feel like ****
Cause I don’t even know who my baby daddy is
I cant tell my fionce im having second thoughts
You should see him, he’s so excited about this new life im bringing forth.
What do I do this **** don’t even care
He disappeared off the face of this earth and went some where
And now  im stuck with a seed that was planted in side of me
Cause all I wanted was some fun!
Now I have to live with the bad mistakes that I made
Being torn like this really doesn’t make my day
Ladies if you got a good man in your life
Please love and treat your man right
Be faithful and true, cause if you don’t I guarantee it’ll  come back
AND HURT YOU!

This poem is about my best friend a situation she was going through at a time in her life. Enjoy
Ayllon Chalif May 2013
When I'm alone at night
Laying in my bed
The demons come out
Attach to my head
The voices whisper
Never knowing what they said
But every time
Fill me with overwhelming dread
My body only has evil fed
And all emotions have completely fled
My grey sight
Has just turned to red
And the rage takes over
Arms turn to bull dozers
Anybody in my path will be run over
I'm a *** addict
Popping perks
Like i gatta have it
Coke in my pocket
Gotta grab it
Your ******* throat
I gotta stab it
Living in poverty
Blinded by hate
Until i can't even see
That demon i hate is me
Deep inside it breathes
Blood it needs
And death it seeks

My cheeks turn red
My head starts to spin
My mouth opens up
No words appear
Constantly trembling in fear
Knowing my death is constantly near
Pills in my pocket
Take them with beer
Start shedding tears

I spit poison
My mind is toxic
My heart is frozen
Brain with no logic
Speak without a topic
My evil is atomic
Zoned out like im bionic
My life is chronically chaotic
And i smoke until im hypnotically psychotic
Stuck in a constant fight or flight
So much dark no hope for light
The darkness has taken over my eye sight
I'm a monster
Prepare for a fright
No bark all bight
And when i attack i come with all my might
Stuck in this eternal night
Smit Jan 2016
My babe you’re so adorable!
Wonder I always have you on my table
You make me feel strong my little miss
When I gotta lift ya up for a kiss
You’re my Baby Shawty
I wanna have you My Almighty
You’re my  trophy that I always wanted
You’re my Little candy that that I always dreamed
I love you my princess
You’re my Barbie doll with who I wanted to mess
My baby you’re so small and sweet
I’m addicted to kiss you; lifting you up on my feet
Baby you’re short and that’s what I love the most
I gatta chance to always pick yyou up and never put you down at any cost
Don’t worry my little cub; you’ll always be my super girl
I’ll love you till the end, and you’ll always be my shawty girl
Dean Bonsignore Jul 2011
So lets drink all day and fight all night.
Don't worry it'll be alright.
I got the bandages and cleaning stuff.
You gatta prove that you are tough.

You need to drink until you're blind.
Only then can you find,
That you are just like us in what we do.
Bad decisions through and through.

So lets get together and throw down.
I got a fist you, got a crown.
You have a floor, I have a face.
There is no need to make the space.

A bad decision here and there.
You can make them anywhere.
Weather it's with friend or foe.
Just make a choice and go, go, GO!
The start off for some new lyrics I'm writing. Hope you guys likey.

There's not a better fealing that  I ever felt I'm dreaming
I believe in forever together
Never ever leaving
There's no one else 2 help me find a better reason how
I found myself under a spell and now I'm reaching out
Yeah... I need a remedy can't reach my destiny
The best in me just lets me see how fast these seconds leave
Baby baby I'm crazy dont hate me take these maybes I keep saying I'm making  day dreams relating I'm fading
My aching bones. pain
Unexplainable brain
Cant take control and the chains are unbreakable flame indulged
Faded soul u keep saying what I hate too know with no place to go
Can't excape the cold when u embrace the hold  
Ice pick thru the heart
Your the reason I'm making art
cant erase those marks
Right from the start I knew this was ganna be hard
Wanna be stars are ganna depart
If u wanna be smart then u gatta recharge .

I look at her when she looks at fancy cars
And think i gatta make my dreams work
I look at her as she looks at old pictures of her parents in love
And i thought **** i gatta give a love like this
I look at her as she looks into the stars
As she conceals her scars within
I look at her shade a tear of days of crying
I look her tear herself apart
Cause the system hasn't been fair
The system has torn and torched her
Butched her dreams... And fed her fear
I look at her though from a different perspective
I see more woman in her smile
A strong big hearted being
With the ability to make the universe sing
String the thoughts of angels as they organise their colours to combine
I see fine art in. Its best form
And this all i see from a distance
Paul Donnell Jun 2014
If I could change one day in my past,
It'd be the day my boots beat the path,
So I wonder, how it could be,
If my gypsy soul never touched my feet.

I had a lady and she loved me so,
But the road you know it owns my soul,
So I wonder, how it i could be,
If my gypsy soul never touched my feet.

Dont fall in love with us travelin' kids
We'll break your heart as we leave with the wind,
So I wonder, how it could be,
If I could love a little longer than the season of spring.

Maybe if I was a better man,
But now I sit here wonderin' if I can go on
Yea I gatta keep on

And you should know I'm the king of bones
I'll rip out your spin so I can stand on my own.
Once I'm in, I'll tear you apart.
Leave you naked, bruised up, cut up, and exposed in the dark.

I've got my cigarettes I've got my ****,
All to keep my feelings under me,
In the mirror I see empty eyes,
So I roll myself a doobie and I look towards the sky.

The consequences of my wanderlust.
Are tears from the faces I have touched,
To my friends, Im sorry I'm gone,
I'm doin well.

If theres a welcome Ive over stayed it,
American dreams are overrated,
Sun sets up on mountain tops
thats where you're ganna find me.

I've got no money got no land to defend.
My journey will never come to an end.
Sun sets up on mountain tops
Thats where you ganna find me.

My gypsy soul and me.

Without a home,
And doomed to roam.
this is a song, tried to write it best i could as  a poem but it works better with the guitar.
Jane Bell Nov 2015
Home alone again
He called me and it was all going good
I  finally said "hey I'm not doing to well."
He said "hey I gatta go, dinner is ready."
My heart not only shattered but froze still
I told him how things were
And he ran
Ran away from me
Back to no one
And it scares me so much ******* more
than death
The call ended 3 minutes ago..
Paul Donnell Jul 2014
I see stars while I wait for the lights to turn green.
Drunken thoughts are sober truths,
they say.
Old friends rekindled,
with a fifth of whiskey,
and an old man to look up to.

Am I honerable?
well I'm not sure.
I have morals.
but do I follow them?
Well I'm not sure.

Hey kid,
how are you now.,
that youve grown a bit more.
Seen some more ****.
Can you walk in other shoes.
Now that youve seen through others eyes?

The sun will guide. Ya dont be scared.
You'll find your place.
in this crazy world.
ya dont worry now.
You'll find a bottle
Oh, you'll find your words,
Whats that you say?
Ya,
Imagine if you will.
One thousand, thousand birds,
Flying over head/
each other with a thought from your head.
And Imagine if you will,
You gatta look up,
Pick a bird, so you can say a thought,
But you get a feather, half a word,
it doesnt make sense,
not to you,
No, not to who your talking to.
And
Kid im sorry,
thats the way it is,
for you at least,
Are you sure at least,
that others dont feel like this,
is it just you?
Are you sure,
yea
Son are you sure?
Well i'm seeing stars
waiting for lights to turn green,
I'll find that bottle
so I can chase my dreams.
I am very very very very drunk.
Ive drank alot.
in my time.
before the moon.
Shown me
diffrent views..
Tyler Apr 2018
I find myself at such a loss.
Just wait.
Here me out.
What I'm bout to say comes straight from the heart.

Look, I get it, you dont have to answer any of my calls.
I'm believing..
Hell, I'm hoping, you'll pick up one day.
Please just know, I'd never want to add to your pain.
I'm praying that time makes a change in our life.

This is a strange place to be in.
This is a strange place I've put myself in.
Admitting things I never would.
Confessing things, that's just something I never did.

I find myself pacing, I feel like I'm going crazy, realizing how much you made a difference in my life,
And I don't want anybody else.

Hear me?
Don't nobody deserve myself, but you.
I guess what I'm really trying to say is..

You ain't gotta make your mind up
right now.
Darling, there's no rush.
So take your time, don't rush.
There's no pressure, I just gatta express this...

You took me by such surprise.
Never thought I'd take you serious.
But you came in and changed everything.
You came in and changed all of me


I miss your little hands and the way they caressed away all of my inner pain.
I admit, I took you for granted.
So now here I sit, on the edge of my empty bed with nothing but the reflection of all my bad decisions.

There were some nights, I'd find myself talking to my conscience.
I knew I made a few mistakes.
I knew I did it to myself.
I know I never admitted this,
but I'm the only one to blame for this.
I know you might need a little time to believe all of this.
To believe in me again.
To love again.

God, you must really not know it do you? How beautiful you are, standing there in front of me as I say all this.
Those beautiful hazel eyes staring back at me, unaware of how every cell in my entire body just wants to reach out and touch you.
You're not making this easy. Especially when I see you make that face, all I wanna do is make love to you all over the place.
  
I can't do this, I'm determined to fight for this.
I'ma put up a fight for this.
I cannot give up on a love like this.

So I'll be patient, I'll wait for however long you need because to me you're worth it.
This was kind of all over the place. Sorry
Ashwin Kumar Jun 2023
I have never met you
And you don't even know I exist
But you have cast a spell on me
From which it would be very difficult to recover
Your eyes blaze with an intensity
That can even melt steel
Your smile is so beautiful
That it cannot be surpassed
Even by that of Mona Lisa
Your laugh is so musical
That even the songs of AR Rahman
Would pale in comparison
Your hairstyle is an art in itself
Your dress sense is so impeccable
That it would put even the finest Italian designers to shame
And last but not the least
We come to your acting
A Sri Lankan Tamil dancer *** revolutionary
In the movie "Jagame Thanthiram"
A humble and yet powerful boatwoman
In "PS1" and "PS2"
A fierce wrestler with short hair
Forced to become a submissive housewife with long hair
In "Gatta Kusthi"
And finally
A teacher dealing with troublesome students
As well as impending layoffs and rejected marriage proposals
In "Archana 31 Not Out"
Given any kind of role, you play it to perfection
Born with oodles of natural talent
You nevertheless refuse to rest on your laurels
And put your heart and soul
Into the profession which you hold so dear
You are an inspiration to one and all
Forced to do an MBBS
By your extremely conservative parents
You have nevertheless the courage
To break free of the shackles placed on you
And pursue your own dreams
What's more, the risks you have taken off
Have ultimately paid off
You are the numero uno of present day Mollywood
And flying high in Kollywood as well
Yes, you have cast a spell on me
But it was a spell, that I refused to resist
And rightly so
Yet Another Poem dedicated to one of my all-time favourite celebrities; actress Aishwarya Lekshmi.

I smoked one too many singles someone pack a double.
Twenty ringers ain't fun for the lungs but they gatta be done,
someone pack another for the girl we gettin **** done.
Not, just chillin n smokin ***.
Smokin marijuana, you wanna do it or not?
Settle in, its not like its a ****** rock,
yeah she has one in the pocket but that **** would make you pop.
See for us it be okay,
take it and we sway,
have another popper and we feel it fade a way.
It comes back and it's great,
numb to the face and cant complain,
run with the flow, now whats my name,
I had to get it, I had it, now I'm insane.
Now you, scared you wont like the truth,
you like it as much as the youth,
but you wont let nothing diffuse the situation,
love n hate will make a mess,
your selfish habits wont have it so **** it just take a rest.
You figure that I'll just bewilder the thought of you as a villain but you can just call her a killer cause she gon keep up with the killin.
Wanna **** round with a beast, its only your head.
Better keep up with the girl or get back n rest while she pull ahead. Yeah, now she only smokin on the best,
she been nursing a mind to **** us all up n go to bed.
See we ready, come n get me,
hell, we been it all along.
You say you're not convinced, she says you should tag along.

Hi Aishwarya, very very hearty congratulations!!
You deserve this
As much as we recruiters deserve success
After burning the midnight oil
For months and months

Of you I'm so proud
Of course, always have I known
That, extremely talented are you
Not to mention, dedicated and hardworking
Nevertheless, quite the feather in your cap this is
And gives you bragging rights, it does!!

From "Jagame Thanthiram" to "Archana 31 Not Out"
And from "Gatta Kusthi" to "King of Kotha"
Always, have I been enamoured
By your ability to act in a variety of roles
AND play them all to perfection
By your expressions
Which change as frequently
As a chameleon changes its colours
And finally
By your utterly bewitching beauty and charm
Something that can be replicated not
Even by the most celebrated divas of Bollywood!!

An amazing actress are you
And an even better human being
Nicer than Keanu Reeves
More humble than Johnny Depp
And at the same time
Extremely outspoken and brutally frank
There ain't nothing
That you can achieve not
I endeth on this note
You are under arrest
For the crime of stealing my heart!!
Poem dedicated to actress Aishwarya Lekshmi, who just won an award for "Best Actor Female (Film)" from OTTPlay app for the movie "Ammu" ; her first direct OTT feature to be dubbed in many languages; though a Telugu original.

Yes I’m a man without a house but don’t be stupid and mistake me for being homeless
Some of u with houses and money can’t even point where home is
Ignorance
I’m not trynna justify
But I’m a man who fell on hard times
Y’all gat on the most expensive watch can’t even tell that these are hard times
Oblivious
Young people don’t know how to be serious
My life
U hear bout this
U fear of this
But it isn’t that obvious
Cause u conclude your own hypothesis
As a result u look at me silly
U look at me with pitty
U judge me before u even meet me
U tell me I have no right to be in this position based on your own position
Making it seem like this was my decision
***** I was a student too
A good student too
But I didn’t see the sense in it because school wasn’t teaching me
How to get to the place where I wanna be
And so I dropped out
Yeah I dropped out
That phrase is taboo
Hierarchy I gatta hand it to u
U got everyone in your shoe
Following your foot steps
Telling people this will lead to their peaks
But what if someone like me
Wants to see differently
And not from your perspective
Maybe I don’t wanna take courses of majors and electives
That’s not where my best is
U know  I have a passion for drama
I wouldn’t mind learning how to perfect acting but the odds were against me
And so my family turned against me
Cause I wasn’t contributing to da house
Dey kicked me out  
So now I’m without a house but I still have my home in my heart
And I know where my passion lies
I keep my head to the skies
I guess I have no choice but to do that cause there’s no ceiling to block my vision
Yes I did make my own decision
But it wasn’t to be poor it was to step out from the norm
I guess nowadays those two things coincide
Sorry I’m rambling but don’t walk past me with so much pride
Just cause I don’t have a place to go inside
Don’t judge me if u don’t know my story
Just cause my life got noticeably ugly
I don’t even ask; yet people think I want a dollar or more
I may not have a house but I got my home in my core
When I see people what I really wanna ask for
Is a chance but no one gives those out anymore

Imagine if you will.
One thousand, thousand birds,
Flying above,
A deafening cacophony of fluttering wings.
Each bird is a thought from your head.
And Imagine if you will,
You gatta look up,
And try and find and grab a thought,
So you can tell others what you think.

But all you can manage
Is a few feathers.
Half words,
Fragments,
Of what could be a beautifully constructed sentence.

So it doesn't make sense.
Not to you,
Not to who you're talking to.
Desperatly trying to explain what its like when I talk to people.
Its incredibly difficult for me.
By the time I actually catch a thought.
The conversation has moved on to something else.
And its no longer relevant.
Mike Patten Jul 2016
I normally wouldn't say this,
But I think you gatta' hear,
I know I'm too insane,
****, I really miss you dear.

I normally would't do this,
But I bought a bowl of fish,
I named her Kayla K,
And she tells me I've been selfish.

And I know that I'm too late,
I know that I'm insane,
I know that I'm too tired, too be staying up this late.

I normally would't say this,
But I think you've got to know,
Yes I've gone insane,
But did you really have to go,

And I normally wouldn't do this,
But I've cleaned up my act,
No longer who I used to be,
And I wish you'd take me back.

And I know that I'm too late,
I know that I'm insane,
I know that I'm too tired, too be staying up this late.

Right from the moment
Did I clap my eyes upon you
In the movie "Jagame Thanthiram"
Felt, did I
That, was there something special about you

Lies in you, a burning intensity
Which can reduce your enemies to dust
With the same frightening ease
Did the West Indies dominate cricket
Many a decade ago

Not a big role did you play in "PS1"
Or for that matter, "PS2"
However, come when your scenes did
So enraptured were we
Unable, were we
To take our eyes off you
Never had anyone played the role of "Poonguzhali"
With such simple elegance
Combined with wit and humour
Of the highest order

However, "Gatta Kusthi" was it
Where came you, into your own
Transitioning from a fiery wrestler
Into a traditional housewife
And back
With remarkable ease
The scene where you single-handedly took on those armed goons
And beat them to a pulp
As though it were child's play
Will remain etched in my mind forever
Seriously did I think
Hath arrived, a new superstar

Truly versatile, art thou
Thus did "Archana 31 Not out" prove
Where played you, the role of a teacher
Struggling to discipline a class full of troublemakers
And at the same time, facing a future full of uncertainties
Due to ongoing layoffs
Not to mention, facing rejection after rejection
When it cometh to marriage proposals
Quite the emotional rollercoaster did it turn out to be
And truly did you own the character
Rooting for "Archana", was I throughout
And when came the ******
Truly inspirational, was your speech
Showed us all, did you
The importance of taking our life in our own hands

Blessed with beauty, art thou
However, it stops not there
An exceptionally skilled actress are you
And a humble and down-to-earth person
Who, nevertheless, is afraid not
To speak her mind, no matter what
May you continue rocking and inspiring young artists
And shall the Lord bless you
With all the love, happiness, peace and prosperity in the world
Amen!
Poem dedicated to my all-time favourite celebrity; actress Aishwarya Lekshmi

Ever since I watched you act in the movie "Jagame Thanthiram"
I knew there was something special about you
You took on a very complex role
And brought a lot of character into it
Next came PS1
Though your role was limited
You did full justice to the character of "Poonguzhali"
Right from the moment you emerged from the water
To your feisty dialogues with "Vanthiyathevan"
However, your finest hour
Came in the film "Gatta Kusthi"
Where your character "Keerthi" had to undergo a number of transformations
From a fierce wrestler with short hair
To a simple housewife with long hair
And back
The scene where you singlehandedly fought off all those armed goons
Is one I'll never forget
For the rest of my life
Then we come to the movie "Archana 31 Not Out"
Though, in my opinion, there wasn't anything remarkable
About the movie as a whole
You again did full justice to your character
Right from the travails of your job as a teacher
Including handling a class full of troublemaking students
And dealing with a lot of uncertainty
Due to the impending layoffs
To facing a number of rejected marriage proposals
For all of which you assigned cricketing terms
And finally the ****** scene
Where you delivered a speech
That brought goosebumps to one and all
You are not only an amazing actress
But also a wonderful human being
Bold and brutally honest
And humble and down-to-earth at the same time
Yes, you don't know me
Nor would you have even heard of me
But I can say with a lot of pride
That I will always be a fan of yours
Dedicated to my favourite celebrity - actress Aishwarya Lekshmi.

Back home? ", you still screaming in the back room
I had a dead noon, you gatta leave soon
You playing the street tune, this tune
How i hate it
Change a bit i paid quit he said he will leave you
I hate that i can read you, if i could re-do i would not re-do you,
Oh sorry did i riddle you
Blindly loved this fool sadly i went on to wed you
Mad over you had to
You sold me a different character not the one i have now
What happened to her..... That sweet girl who shared a dream with me
Who saw beyond the thick blue sky
Who used to dance in the sunlight and let the rays make music on her skin
What of she has she forever been buried....

I want to love you how i did
Breathe those sweet thoughts u sprayed when i came home fatigued
Catching me with a warm smile and lustful eyes
I loved you then

Then i lost you to the vultures
Who bred off your youthful flesh
And went on to bite a piece out of our love
You let them
You let them in
With big round bellies carrying the hearts of our lil young sisters and broken marriages
I hate that you let them
Paint our weather into their own forecast
Why stay
Why stay
When love has packed olready.........

I say leave
With a please
How polite right?

MLK wasn't resting as I pass on this message.
Travesties of today Calling for His Attention
So what comes first when you want to pass on your blessings
If you think you're number 2, then brother you better test it.
And am I less than a man for refusal of plans in The devilish Antics of my brethren.
I know that i Cant Stand out if I'm not living outstanding
So a little light from brighter sides is All I'm demanding
I might wield my sins and pop the bubble you're trapped in.
Majority of Authority Not For Your mental Expansion
See I gatta make you aware, things are not as they seem
So you living in fear, I once had a dream turned into a nightmare.

Nia
I gatta work hard
Really hard
Give my daughter something
To idolize
Cause mum wanted a famous father
Well I will give you that
Cause you mean a lot
I go take the world into my palms
If it that will make you
Look into my eyes
With those twinkle little eyes
Again
None matter how heavy
It will weigh upon my shoulders
For you I will pull on further
Even a mile more when I have walked a thousand
1001 are just numbers
Figures to count our blessings
Well we won't use numbers baby
We not the einsteins
But by Bernini's works we are the
Illumination
We in the heavens baby
We the stars and moon
Exposed for political gains
Daughter see dad is a soldier
His wise too
He don't fight wars we would never win
Dad is warrior
His smoke signals shall be seen

— The End —
