Only water streams of the river
meets in the Ocean
The banks of the river
never meets with each other
they always stand face to face
but do not come near
If one comes near sometimes
The other moves far and away
To maintain the Distance
It's not so, that they
do not want to meet
But if they will meet
The river will not stay
That too will become a pond
Its water will also rot
Its continuous flow will stop
To maintain the existence
Of the free flowing river
For welfare of living beings
For quenching their thirst
Its very very important
the banks should never meet
The truth is that they are one
even if they are not able to meet
What is life? Life is love
What is love, it's Sacrifice
Without sacrifice, love is lifeless
The banks have completely understood
the essence and decided their destiny
that they shall never ever meet
For the welfare of the world
Its essential, important and mandatory
Banks are disciplined
By their own self-discipline
If the river also follows discipline
Inspired by the discipline of banks
Its beauty gradually increases
Peoples bow and pray to the river
With great respect and devotion
But whenever water streams of river
Encroaches the boundary of the banks
they are criticized and reprimanded
As it betrays the love
betrays the sacrifice
betrays the benevolence of the banks
by completely forgetting and
tarnishing the efforts of banks
And Take away with them
Hundreds of homes
And finally earn disrespect
Well, the existence of the edges
is also because of the water stream
If the edges meet with each other
They will lose their own identity
So, this subtle concept needs to be
Understood clearly and deeply
'Devotion persists only uptill the
desires remain un-fulfilled'
If one is able to see the God
and gets his desire fulfilled, then
the devotee ceases to be a devotee
his devotion disappears immediately
and he often gets angry with God
So the Banks of river
always pray to god
'Our love should remain forever
But like parallel lines
We should never meet each other
Because of us the river must exist
Water streams must stay forever
And remain as a medium
for communicating our love
towards each other'
Such guileless love of the banks
Where else on earth can be seen?
God also salutes their true love
I wish their love should remain alive
It's not always like -
that the shores never meet
Yes, two banks of same river
Do not meet with each other
But a bank of a river
Sometimes manages to meet
with the bank of another river
Because in such case there is
absolutely no fear of
the water streams getting stagnant
The water stream of two rivers
joins with each other
and is called 'confluence'
Its importance increases
Its respect also increases
If one bank of first river meets
another bank of second river
then the second bank of the first river
never minds at all
and never ever gets sad
Its love remains constant as it was
unconditional and unbiased
Moment moment every moment
Second second every second
Let's bow before such
True and unconditional love
Hundred and Thousand Times

Sorry I can't say anything.....
Sorry I can't say anything.....
Uptill now I think about you are only mine
But after listening your new theory.
Sorry I can't say anything...
Please atom attach me with you with the help of your covalent bond.
Please can't energies with your friends(electron) and your mind(nucleus) and repell me in your outermost orbit
Only you are my hydrogen and I am your single electron
Please you not make yourself as helium lithium or any other
Only remain hydrogen for my whole life....
After somedays we make our dutarium and tritium and enjoying our joyful life
Please you can't try to stable...
Please remain unstable as my hydrogen forever.....
Sorry I can't say anything.....
Sorry I can't say anything.....

Having lived life uptill now(by the grace and mercy of Almighty)...i've learnt and realized some important things-
1)you are your best friend
2)you are your greatest enemy
3)you are your biggest motivator
4)you are your greatest discourager
5)there's no such thing as a free lunch in this world
6)never underestimate the capacity of other people to let you down
7)hear out what others have to say even if you don't concur with their views
8)your hardwork and patience both will be rewarded someday
9)trust only 2 people-Almighty and yourself(if you're lucky..you'll get a few more people in this department)
10)confront your enemies but avoid them when you can
11)be open to change
12)do things that make you happy
13)live like it's the last day of your life
14)love like there's no tomorrow
15)And lastly remember..you don't have to prove yourself to anyone..be confident,have self belief and just do your thing.

Im sorry
If i hurt you in any kinda way
I just want you too know
that when you look at me
I aint the same
Im trying to be the best that I can be
not to mention its our loves that drives me
Im changing for you and me
Im taking a chance on responsibilities
Please don’t walk away ill be a better person
ill promise you that
but remember me and all the things that we’ve shared
Never believed I could feel this way
but uptill now you keep provin me wrong this way
again I’m sorry
it aint easy for me to open up to you
Even when I know
you will never do me harm
its my inner self that had been damaged
way too far
Again,
here I go and try to make excuses
but I keep on remembering the pain from the bruises
Felt like I needed to be strong
But it just hit me
I’ve been strong all along
I guess I just needed to be reassured
it wasn’t my fault that my body was his burden
such a long time ago but still so short in my feelings
Its been a long time but my wounds are now just healing
Its like im stuck in a room with no door too flee in.
but If I fled its just another room
im going insane over not being able to deal with the past.
im going crazy
hope this feeling doesn’t last
Make it stop
make it stop
I don’t want to feel
all these feelings inside of me that just wont heal
Lord give me strength, give me attitude
for maybe then I will never again be treated like a **********
what was I gonna do?
was in no position to step away from him too.
I guess that now you can say im doing alright
I've found a man that loves me
And keeps calling me his wife
I find comfort in talking too him
He makes being with him feel like home
So only when im away i still feel alone.

Hatred has never been my cup of tea
I have always been drunk on love
Right from the day i was born
Till right now...
...uptill this very moment
It is love that has kept me going
Helped me survive
Kept my heart beating
Has kept burning the lamp of my spirit
Once i got a taste of it...
...i just never let it go
It's sweetness
It's strength
Just blew me
I will admit though that there have been moments
Moments when i've doubted whether love alone is sufficient
Whether love will always stay by my side
There've been moments when i've been pulled towards the dark
Hatred,jealousy,ego,self-doubts
....these have haunted me at times
There've been moments when i've felt weak
My faith in love has shaken at times
But in the end love has always won the battle
And it is then that i realized that the path of love is not easy
But true love overcomes every hurdle...
...every obstacle
...no matter how many there may be
Love is all you need
Love is life
Love is bliss
Love is salvation
Love is redemption
Love is conquering all odds
Love is selfless
And yet at times selfish
Love is pure
Love is like a glowing light
Love is the elixir for your soul
Love is the best thing you can give,feel and experience
Feel love
Give love
Love is the only thing which can save this planet from crumbling
And this planet definitely needs lots of it

As i go to bed, i bow,
To give thanks to the almighty,
The provider, the caretaker,
The alfa and the omega.
Thanks God for today.
I hope and need you again uptill
Tomorrow.
Give me health and nice sleep,
Remember my children and my readers too.
I pray shortly in your name.
AMEN
