Grudges
Life is too short
To bear grudges
They say.
But I wonder…
Why life makes you
Struggle so much
That you have
Grudges.
Wish life was one
Sweet sailing…
With happy memories
And no grudges.

The cost of the conquests
With every conquest you put on weight.
With every conquest grudges would mount.
The built up grudges will finish you off..
Must you reap happiness by such conquests?
Julius Caesar, the man of conquests,
Was finished off by the weight of his fame.

I believeee;
I believe in our friendships,
The memories,
The Challenges,
The Honesty,
The Love,
They never go!
I believe everyone holds grudges and everyone breaks promises,
I believe in the fun and the laughter...
But then always comes sorrow,
'True friends are those ones who stick around while everyone else goes.'
Everyone makes mistakes, but very few people actually learn from them.
I believe loved ones are taken too soon,
I believe everything happens for a reason;
So instead of complaining about all the bad things we should take everyday as it comes and make the most of it while we can, because life can disappear so very quickly' so don't waste your time.

Some Aspect Of Truth
There is much more to life,
Than having the ability to sit...
And create grudges.
To smear and smudge others.
Although in the doing...
The screwing feels good,
To many who would if they could...
Find some aspect of truth in what it is they do.

Marriage.
A bond which is sensitive-
In which we share a lot.
Leaving our homeland-
We expect a lot.
Marriage is something-
Where we give in a lot.
At the sametime in return-
We want a lot.
Both, husband and wife-
Need to mingle a lot.
Priorites of life-
Change a lot.
Life revolves now-
Near husband a lot.
Lots of expenses-
To buy gifts a lot.
Time is short-
But dreams are lot.
Both, husband and wife-
Work a lot.
As evening arrives-
They talk a lot.
As time pass by-
Family is lot.
Even with grudges-
Love is lot.
And you see-
Marriage is loved a lot.

Your political reputation affects how likely allies are to trust you, and what kind of deals they'll offer at the negotiating table. There's also some emotional response in there, so factions do bear grudges. Just like the real thing.

Keeping Things
you always keep things
collect things
and keep them all again
never using
anything
you become the hoarder
of everything
old grudges, anxieties, sorrows,
why not
set them all free
try seeing hope with wings
beautiful memories as clouds drifting by
both of us
in awe

I Am Not Building Any Grudges Against God
My friend
To be honest
With you
I am not building any grudges
Against God
Because I love God
And I have some respect for him

Time To Forgive
In the back of my mind it keeps me on edge
s soul filled with love but I can't help but feel contempt instead
so let's forget the past and the grudges that we hold
If we don't do it soon you know it will explode
let's shape a better way of life time to forgive
I'm sorry for the bottled up anger what was it about
It's time to forgive I'm glad that it's all over now

Parents
My Ma
Is in her
Late sixties.
My Baba
In his
Early seventies.
Going by the
Average
Life span
Of people
Living in
India,
They don't have
Very many
Years to live.
It's a loss for me.
It's a loss for them.
When life has
Nothing more
To give.
All the grudges
You have
Against your
Parents,
Just let them go,
For when they go,
You'll keep grudging
About all the love
You couldn't show.
Because of them
You've seen
The light
Of this earth.
Be grateful…
For they've
Brought you
To this earth.
You owe them
Your life.
Whatever they could,
They did their best.
Now it's time
To put matters
At rest.
They are your
Parents.
Were they good
Or not so good,
You'll always
Miss them.

I Am Sailing Alone
Out of nowhere, I dreamt to go
To a place where no one else go
Then, suddenly, I realized
That I’m sailing alone and despised
Gone with the wind, I tried to conquer to life
Yet, life has conquered me before I come to life
Who so will have me bear?
This miseries and pain I come to heir
Solely, out in the dark I used to hide myself
Feverish, I went out to the light
But, only I and I can carry out the fight
Against the ravishing waves the sore the ocean floor.
I did not face the life that surrounds the sea
And now I come to face a rather painful plea
For now, I’m so afraid to go back to my land
I am sailing alone across where I belong.
I am sailing alone, without someone to care
I am sailing alone, with all the thought to bear
No one else is here, for I am sailing alone
I am sailing alone, I am sailing alone.

It's a family that's loaded with grudges and passion. We come from a long line of robbers and highwaymen in Italy, you know. Killers, even.

Overhearing How They Are From Others
Why do some people hold grudges,
And maintain negative attitudes...
Towards others who may not remember them.
Or may be a close friend,
Of the one innocently victimized?
This makes little sense.
But there is a reality of this in existence.
And many people have not met,
The ones they dislike and disrespect.
Just 'overhearing' how they are from others,
Is enough for some to pass their judgements.

Early
His grudges
Asked me:
Why do you
Have to sleep
Early?
My nudges
Told him:
If I have
Sex with you
Dearie…
I won't be
Able to
Wake up
Early!

I was pretty dead set against ever writing an academic novel. It's always been my view that there are already more than enough academic novels and that most of them aren't any good. Most of them are self-conscious and bitter, the work of people who want to settle grudges.

A'Maze'ing
Your pain is His pleasure
For the storm has a clearing
And He will begin
Once your end is nearing
He does His work best
When there’s nothing to lose
And your will is all gone
So it’s His will you’ll use
When it’s time to let go
Then you have to hang on
To your faith in the Lord
And not the things that are gone
Even peace has a price
But it has already been paid
When the son of man came
The groundwork was laid
Keep your eyes on His suffering
Then your heart will know His love
Not the kind you seek here
But the kind from above
He gave his life here for all of us
Even those you despise
So let go of your grudges
If you want to rise
It’s like life is a maze
And the walls are too high
But God knows the quick exit
He sees the maze from the sky
He just wants to guide you
When you hit the maze wall
Because the healing is greater
The harder you fall
So when your storm is raging
Know that God’s got your hand
For one day it will clear
And you’ll see His big plan
