Truth

i look for some truth
from when i open my eyes
i just stare down the road
dont know how time flies
i am so much tired from
listening to all of the lies
is it all we do from when
we first speak till the time
we die

either it is that truth is there
and i am going blind
or it is that people really
have stopped speaking their
mind
A thing called courage
is now difficult to find
and diplomacy is what
is on all of your mind

people have stopped knowing things
which can make them scared
have they forgot that
we got the freedom when we
all stood up and dared
you have to know what is
wrong and what is fair
so please stop with the lies
because its time you become
aware

Old...

i once had everything
i was the happiest man
alive
but nothing stays forever
it is just the rule of
this life
i ran a full marathon
i ate whatever i liked
i carried my friend
on my shoulder on the
mountain we hiked
i fought in the war
i was the best there was
everybody knew me on
every street i passed
i earned a lot and i
spent more than that
i took care of the stray
be it a dog or a cat
i started a family
i had a wife and a kid
i loved from my heart
and i gave them my every
bit
and now everyone i knew
has gone so far away
they are now free of all
while i am still in this fray
while i lie in this bed
and i feel the wind so cold
please take me, angel of death
i am getting too old

Beauty

A thing of beauty always is not easy to find
A beautiful thing does sometimes hide behind

Sometimes you just have to dig a little more
And sometimes to see the real beauty you have to,
in front of god, get down on your all four...

You have to understand this beauty is in all of you
Yet Most of you close your eyes on it
but it is truly recognized by few

I beg you to open your eye
as well as your heart to all the beauty
To the beauty of using your right
and the beauty of doing your duty
Open your eyes to the beauty of truth,
to the beauty of humanity
Acknowledge the beauty of the nature
and the beauty of your sanity
Break the door of darkness
and welcome the beauty of sunshine
Please Come out of the pit of oblivion
and look for life's important signs
Because we get only one beautiful life
and behind that there is a reason
To learn the beauty as it comes
while passes your life's three seasons

My Friend

everybody see him walking
around with a smiling face
they think he is so lucky
and he is in a happy place
but what they don't see is
what hides behind that smile
the pain of silence which
has been inside of him
for a while

he goes with his day
as he does everyday
saying what everyone
wants him to say
for once he wants to
just listen to his heart
say things as they are
even if are sharper
than a dart

friends when they see him
they simply want to know
is he always this calm
or is this just a show
this is a question that
also intrigues his mind
because whenever he thinks
on this, his mind goes blind
may be he is at peace
may be he is imploding
may be he is proud
or may be is full of
self loathing
but he tries not to think
on himself for too long
he has accepted himself
be it as right or as wrong

you know its hard to change
a person like him
a person who brings light to
the places so grimm

Everyone agree on is that
he takes pleasures in
small things
and wherever he goes
a hint of happiness he brings
he certainly hopes he carries
on his journey of life, this trait
and i hope for my friend
he gets everything he wants
without a wait.....

I Waited

As I hear the footstep on the front

Of the house which, in my dreams

, I created

Just in hope that it would be you

And to tell you that for how

Long I have waited

I will sit you down and

Say everything Which

were unstated

And will see the

Smile on your face

For which I long waited

I am not the old me anymore

I am not the same guy you hated

I have changed to the one

you wanted

In the time, for your return,I waited

But as I wake up I look around

You are not here and everything

Is still vapid

But I want to believe this dream

as it gives me a hope for your

return for which

A lifetime I waited
