Repulsion
I've tried to improve myself.
To outlast the pain and transcend.
Oh, time is the greatest witness.
And I know I cannot win.
I'm weak and I devour.
The sustenance I can find.
I'm stressed and I can't control.
The length I consider the line.
My fortitude falls away.
And I feel insane.
Stricken with sadness, bewildered with rage.
Confidence shackled in chains.
Please don't tell me a lie.
I don't want you to see me cruel.
And don't return my 'I love you'
Unless you're telling the truth.
I can't define the disease.
This plague still gripping my soul.
But I'm falling to my knees.
Losing the ability to grow.
I'm repulsed by the light that shows.
The turmoil that flocks to me.
I'm repulsed by the wind that blows.
The fragrance of these memories.
I'm repulsed by the powers that be.
Forcing me towards my defeat.
But the most agonizing of my disgust.
Is that I'm mostly repulsed by me.
And so, I turn from the glass.
Ambiguity tells the tale.
I wonder how things would have been.
If I had just remained in my shell.

Love is, Love is not
Love is not eternal lust.
Love is when you do
not feel repulsed when
your longterm partner
farts under the covers.
Love is not forever sexual
Love is when everything
edible has been eaten
yet you still come back for more.
Love is, what lust lacks.

It Is Not An Inconvenience
What is it that you need,
I have not yet to give...
Or bestowed upon your desired wants.
The passion you receive,
Comes from the best side of me.
And if I have not been at your beck and call,
To service a whim...
That is when you seem to begin,
Displaying to no end those things impossible.
It is not an inconvenience,
For me to be with you as I please.
It is not an inconvenience,
To sacrifice my needs,
For yours if this satisfies an encouragement...
That flourishes and endures.
But there is whining that sickens when it starts.
You appear to be unhappy with those blessings you've got.
And I get repulsed quick,
By demands made of greedy people.
It is not an inconvenience,
For me to be with you as I please.
It is not an inconvenience,
To sacrifice my needs,
For yours if this satisfies an encouragement...
That flourishes and endures.
But there is whining that sickens when it starts.
You appear to be unhappy with those blessings you've got.
And I get repulsed quick,
By demands made of greedy people.
What is it that you need,
I have not yet to give...
Or bestowed upon your desired wants.
Are you pushing me to flaunt my agitation?
It is not an inconvenience,
For me to be with you as I please.
It is not an inconvenience,
To sacrifice my needs,
For yours if this satisfies an encouragement...
That flourishes and endures.
But don't explore or solicit,
My tolerance you believe needs testing...
For it to be identified and acknowledged.

There is an idea, the basis of an internal structure, expanded and split into different shapes or groups of sound constantly changing in shape, direction, and speed, attracted and repulsed by various forces.

Fear
His head is all you see from the rubble:
the sun did not lose its luster,
the moon did not turn to blood,
nothing collapsed on or around him,
and the earth did not quake;
he is sunken by fear.
Governors twist his noble brain
with contrived terror on the tube.
He missed his neighbor's protection;
he is repulsed by their hue.
His motives are seen
by the All-Seeing Eye;
he hates the races
and loves the blues.

My hope is that people will be repulsed by the character's complete lack of ethics and obsession with consumerism - that's what I was saying about the difference between the character's message and the film's message.

The Green and White! !
Never knew how the serenity stunned
Some brief conflicts became Armageddon.
I longed for your peace, day's n nights
(Like you) bore many pressures, fought many fights.
Bloomed in you, seen the best n worst
My love for you is an unquenchable thirst.
Felt your pain, were terrorized n tripped
Defended, repulsed, when verbally whipped.
Seen the world, offers things very best
But nothing's comparable to your colors or fests.
Hold on my land, the roaring days are near
Many loyal n patriots, though silent but in sphere.
The Crescent will be shiny and Star more calm
When Green will be tolerant for the White in Pakistan.

Always first
You are always first
Rise in the morning and set at the last
This may continue till the end of the universe
We only have to rejoice and not to curse
It is unique way of feeling the pulse
All the negative ideas are to be repulsed
The need to know it more must be realized
It is essential that all facts are truly analysed
The nature and environment may remain same
The natural calamities and dissasters can’t be blamed
It is part of negative cycle that repeats
We can never claim or remain upbeats
Who can tell us how these cecelstial bodies came into being?
How do they hang without any axis for all changes to bring?
They donot take orders from anybody to act
This has remained central point of fact
We have to align with these foeces and carve out the way
It may help us to be closer then drawing away
The secrets are stilll not known to the world
Many things have yet to come out and unfold
If we are eco-friendly and kind
The nature can’t remain unkind
We must take corrective steps to fall in line
Everything will move smoothly and very fine

As rain falls
As rain falls upon me, it hits every wound healing one by one
i lay there and rain falls whispering in my ear telling me to enjoy the eternal life it has
healing my wounds that have been tormented and rejected
It tells me don't feel pain, let it banish from your soul
Let it crumble in your head
Rain falls down and flashes an eternal light upon me
As i become the unbroken angel of rain
Discovering the wondrous powers of rain
As it tells me, you will never feel pain, you feel joy

Swept
Be careful what you say,
Loose talk could sink this ship
Well the way that I am as weak as a lamb,
See it on my shaky lip
Theres more to these actions,
That you could ever know
With the moon and the tide Im drawn to your side
And moving with the flow
When its time to choose and its sink or swim,
I know Ill drown this time
When the cold wind blows and Im falling in,
Throw the line
Now Im swept,
And Im lost within my mind
On a love that makes me blind
And this feeling I just cant forget,
Now Im swept
On a tide thats in my soul
And this feeling that I have is losing me control
And I hope it doesnt end just yet,
Now Im swept
Mind over matter,
No matter where this mind will be
Theres more to be said, oh, for games in the head
Than anything youll ever see
Theres safety in dreaming,
So wrap me in things that I know
With my head in the sand,
Im at your command
And moving with the flow
When its time to choose and its sink or swim,
I know Ill drown this time
When the cold wind blows and Im falling in,
Throw the line
Now Im swept,
And Im lost within my mind
On a love that makes me blind
And this feeling I just cant forget,
Now Im swept
On a tide thats in my soul
And this feeling that I have is losing me control
And I hope it doesnt end just yet,
Now Im swept

Chasing The Dream
He was chasing the dream.
Walking all over the dreams of another.
He deserved it though.
So hard done by.
The victim makes his victims.
The price, not his to pay.
Finally, he reaches his goal.
Or so, it only seems.
He has made it to the top.
Yet, alone he stands.
Staring down, on the dreams of others he destroyed.
His dream, becomes his nightmare.
From the top he falls.
No one there to catch him,
Until the bottom he hits.
He reflects, and his reflection that once he adored,
He is now repulsed by.
All he chased, has now disappeared.
All that remains is him. Alone.
He rebuilds.
He rebuilds the dreams he once destroyed.
Harder work, yet with endless reward.
As others reach the top,
He is now there to catch others as they fall.
Once on his own pedestal, now creating one for others.
So on another's pedestal he sits.
Many hands to catch him if he falls.
Once empty, seeking power from others and in the dark,
Now full, empowered, and a vision of light.
He has found the dream.
It was chasing him the whole time.

One Knows
One knows one can repel
The forces of evil with cannons
After the view is taken by some.
The views expressed occur for us,
At the beginning of wars we fought,
Yesterday was a year, festivals came.
At the top of certain relics
Is a view around, the full one,
The panoramic compulsion of years,
A fully forming enigma of certainty.
Empires are theories so bold,
One is repulsed by their longing.

My world is falling apart and i can't stop it
i just want to hide,
i don't want to face the world,
it feels like it too much,
i'm slowly slipping,
and it like nobody catching me,
i'm losing my grip,
i just want out,
i want to numb the pain,
but i know that not the answer,
i want to scream,
but it no sound comes out,
i put on a front,
like everything okay,
but inside i am falling apart,
losing all control,
i don't know where it will stop,
i feel sick,
i feel like i'm losing control,
and i must find a way to hold onto it,
nothing is easy,
but if i open up,
than i'm weak,
if i give in,
than i want attention,
it just never seem to end,
i'm hurting inside,
and i don't know how to deal,
it like i don't have permission,
permission to feel the pain,
i'm not surpose to be 'that girl'
i'm a big girl,
i'm surpose to act tough,
but i feel like i'm losing the battle,
it feels like i'm letting ppl down,
like i have to remain tough,
while everybody around me falls apart,
it don't feel fair,
that i can't express myself freely,
the past and present combining into one,
it's a never ending fight,
all i ask is to be free,
but no matter what,
the pain follows me like a shadow,
i can't seem to shake it,
but i can numb myself to not feel the pain.

I just called to say I love you
I found myself in sadness, returning to the past.
Those magic shivers were gone, even they could outlast.
Like an old canvas, painted with nuances of blue
Is my soul, holding back my tears, when I cry for you.
I can't defeat the sorrow and I'm standing alone,
I remember those days of love, but those days are gone.
I need that dream forever and love to shine again
And life I got along with you, but all I have means pain.
From time to time, I feel this love and I keep my breath
To revive the dream, to taste last kiss and my own death.
You are so deep down in my soul and I'm still with you.
When rain falls down, I defeat the lies, searching the true.
You know that my soul will keep the feelings safe all life
Because we were so pure and I was your loyal wife.
I'm down on myself, I get myself up everyday
Because I keep His love and I never stop to pray. +

I regret it
I regretted it through out the day
It was never my style or way
Still it was not short of blunder
Rain too expressed displeasure with thunder
R
Inwardly I felt something had gone wrong,
I felt so much isolated for long
Not at ease to breathe and sing a song
Weakness surfaced and made me weak from strong,
Something I did which my conscious did not allow
I should have acted wise but did not follow,
Carried away by temptation which shouldn’t have been?
Shown so much enthusiasm as if I was so keen
It is making me nervous
Reason may not be true but obvious,
I never fall in trap any time previously
As I was claimed to be taking everything seriously
No one has seen my guilt
It is mechanism in built
Any good and gentleman may feel its pulse
Temptation and greed will have to be repulsed
Heart may skip a beat but will not obey
Mind will not rule but try to have sway
Past may influence and resent will take you away
Only physical presence will matter and stay
It will constantly hurt me and bite
Darkness may be felt even with light
guilt may be felt even if I might be right
Defeat will have to accepted even without fight
Forever you may feel easily got laid
Not attentive even when good words are said
It will continue to hurt me even more
I try admit it to HIM just before,
You may have sound sleep and joy
No more guilt to fear but cheers and enjoy
Immediate redress may relieve the worry
Need not feel shame and not to say sorry
