Walking on waters is easy
When you learn
Floating in air
Running a Government is easy

Accept And Forgive
Forgiveness is forgiving someone
no matter how difficult it seems,
For nothing is never that difficult,
Imagine a beautiful bird and let it
fly away,
Nothing can stop you from fulfilling
your dreams,
It is only doubt that stands in your way,
Doubt is nothing but a stop sign,
You learn to walk on by and be on your
way,
Never let anyone cause you sadness or grief,
Be strong and have plenty of faith,
Faith is stronger than you think,
Believe in yourself always,
Remember your mistakes only make you wiser,
No one is perfect that is a true fact,
Have a better understanding of people you
speak too,
Are they negative or positive?
Negative ones be on your way,
As I learn to move on through all my doubts,
Sadness and sorrow be gone,
I replace them with love and forgiveness,
Even a loss of a loved one or a break up,
We must always learn to let go,
No matter what situations we face
We get through by a prayer,
Something new always comes our way,
Life is never all that easy,
That is when we must always learn to
accept and forgive.

Attempt easy tasks as if they were difficult, and difficult as if they were easy; in the one case that confidence may not fall asleep, in the other that it may not be dismayed.

Yes and No
I will give you some advice
And I think it's really nice.
It can be for you quite useful
As my words are always truthful.
Learn to say surely 'Yes! '
Honestly in your sins confess.
You say 'Yes! ' when there's no doubt
In the things you speak about.
Learn to say your strongest 'No! '
And your confidence will grow.
It's not easy but worth learning,
Into happiness it's turning.
Everyone has his own truth.
So, don't be scared to be uncouth
Say 'No! ' even if your friends ask;
To learn it is not an easy task.
You shouldn't oppress your soul,
Deny if you want to reach a goal.
Life is not a foreign resident,
It's more difficult to pretend.
Otherwise you'll have to say:
Farewell my life, I give up.
And…you'll see your empty cup.
Then…slowly… you'll dissolve
In the life of other -
Your friends, sisters, brothers…

Grass covered path
Grass covered path
It is difficult to proceed
It is easy to wander in forest.
And what is a forest
It is difficult to explain
It is easy to face tiger and snake.
This body is only a dress
It is danger to believe dressed-man
Life risk is there and to avoid it
Knowledge and wisdom are necessary
It is easy to run dressed-life-chariot
It is not easy to proceed further.

Really
Really it is
difficult to lough
and wish hello.
Here the banyan tree
defeated.
here people say
liar.
To say and
not to say
is difficult.
To stay is easy
difficult to
stay with happy.

It is easy to hate and it is difficult to love. This is how the whole scheme of things works. All good things are difficult to achieve; and bad things are very easy to get.
Broken From Inside
I am broken from inside.
Into a thousand of pieces.
There is nothing left for me.
Not a single thing.
It's too much.I can't take it.
I can't even face it.
I can't even share it.
It's so difficult.
Difficult as always.
Nothing but rage.
Rage like middle-age.
I am in a bird cage.
Cage is hard as anything.
I can't come out.
Makes me wonder.
When to come out.
Thousands of words in my mind.
Nothing but give me sunshine.
Shining as always.
Through out my ages.
Life becomes hard.
When you think it's hard.
When you think it's easy.
Everything is easy.
I have a dream.
Which I can only see.
Seeing is easy.
Believing is hard.

Lord of the Flies
Oh Master my Master
Oh where have you been
I wallowed in filth and
I drowned in sin
Oh Master my Master
It's my rotten luck
To swim in the decay
And swallow the muck
Oh Master my Master
I stand in the fires
Surrounded by murderers
Thieves, cheaters, and liars
Oh Master my Master
the earth has turned red
Fluid with blood
Of the recently dead
Oh Master my Master
What's wrong with the world
The blackness unfolds
Like a flag that's unfurled
Oh Master my Master
You ignore my cries
And now I'm quite sure
You're the Lord of the Flies

Mother Advice
Mother used to say
'what comes easy goes easy'.
I used to hear it
but never believed it could be true
Always thought that what comes from heart
Never goes easy, ,
But the life is the greates shcool
That makes us
Live it
Above our own skins
And Feel the pain
To Learn it
Oh, mother I learned
All that you have said
Were pretty true
Just I had learnd them over my own skin
Lived the pain and
I Had to pay a lot
To learn that mother never told me lies
But it took from me a lot to learn
'mother advice'

The most difficult master is the servant who became master.
Basketball, in America, is like a culture. It is like a foreigner learning a new language. It is difficult to learn foreign languages and it will also be difficult for me to learn the culture for basketball here.
An Ass
It is difficult for
An ass to differentiate
The load of salt and
Cotton bales
Do not make me an ass
O my master.
I am here with the sun
With the moon with the star
With the insects with the moths
With the plant And with
Land air water
All are with me
O my master
Make me clean and transparent.
O my master
Make me fit to shine
Make me fit to dine
I am with you
All day long.

You Who Have Never Been There....
what then doth the bird
learn from the cage?
what doth the bare limb
learn from the snow?
what doth the starving child
learn from his hunger?
what doth the homeless man
learn from the lighted window?
what doth the oppressed
learn from his oppression?
what doth the one discriminated against
learn from discrimination?
what doth the hopeless one
learn from his despair?
is it that easy for you to know,
you who have never been there?
