And If you let......
*Ros-Mum Dah*
If you let go a little
Nothing will settle
You may create an extra space
Lead to emergence of unforeseen race
If you let go a lot
Big battle will be fought
Something more and additional is sought
Your attention is arrested and never caught
As it is rightly said “offer little with good intent”
No hostile reaction later if you say “no” and dissent
This will give you more insight of a stranger
It will save you from possible frustration and anger
There should be careful and permanent attachment
So in case of some set back there is no detachment
It must have some open windows to think and monovour
It must be seen then as complete success in your favor
Why do we accept person who is completely unknown?
Why is that we completely surrender to him and be known?
What does it mean to in our real life for future?
Why do we care for and think for ever to nurture?
It is destiny and decided by almighty to be respected
Inner soul must be searched and thoroughly inspected
It is almost unavoidable must be taken as final wish
How come small creature can survive without water like fish
It is almost certain and likely or bound to happen
Fruits too after certain time are bound to ripen
It is unique experience when events take place at right moment
Nothing can help us whether we remain at centre and make movement
Let someone not fool us or take us for granted
We allow the seeds to grow as per wish when planted
We commit to self and accommodate even at some compromise
Words have to be believed and so on the reciprocal basis the promises

A deliberate deception
It may be sure shot deception
when executed with solid conception
thoughts are integrated and pressed into action
you may have no time to offer any reaction
The river water is deep but not shallow
it will be calm but certainly not allow
to asses its depth and hidden danger
you may look upon it as complete stranger
So is the human being and individual as well
they will hide everything and do not reveal
they may take full care for everything to conceal
close friend even may not know the cause real
Someone cautioned me to be remain vigilant
we know her from the time when she was infant
you may not know her real motive and intention
it is not worth here anything to mention
I had no reason to disbelieve their advice
as I was totally blinded by hollow promises
I had no inkling about deception and trait
still I decided to follow with caution and wait
She may indulge in jokes and often say
'I am double edged weapon' and may block the way
If you try to cheat and commit any blunder
Still I thought it was mere talk and expected no thunder
She was calm and quite but hot headed
remained adamant and never heeded
it was her style of responding in arrogant way
I still preferred close relation and did not stay away
She used to pull me down in unceremonious style
I used to tolerate it for a while
It was not rehearsed to give it final bye
Thought I drove cautiously and made desperate try
Any one may find the alliance as holy
It has to be respected and observed wholly
we can never afford to commit folly
it will be termed as unwarranted and silly
No one cares about what others may think
they will meddle in affairs so much and deliberately sink
they wish to vitiate and make it unbearable
It is pathetic and can not be considerable
Some of the condition do not favor at all
they create distrust and impregnable wall
if no one tries to patch up then it may worsen
there will be collapse in relation all of sudden
We are not used to some of the bad memory
It ends in bitterness and lead to feel sorry
there is unforeseen tension and leads to worry
the relation must be on sound footing and not developed in hurry

Totally unaware
As I have known you for number of years
Any bad news are refused to be heard by ears
He is occupying most of my time in prayers
Yet I fear that he may be totally unaware
I was approached by close friend for her problems
Though it was personal and confined between them
I thought for while to entertain and listen to
She opened up for reasons to be very true
You may have some inkling
As to what can be reason for liking?
You may know the exact reason behind
I shall make no efforts to find
She made it known to me as friend
I advised her not push him to the end
I enquired whether she had in any manner communicated
She said she had not enough time as all the way she felt suffocated
I have not put a word to him
I think chances are very thin]
I have special attachment and leaning
I want there to be good beginning
I consoled her by saying that it is not bad at all to have feelings
But it must be made known to him that you are willing?
She was not sure of future steps and had left it to him for best reasons
As he was nice and very good person
She knew well that unknown love was to mushroom
It might find favor with enough of space and room
If she had faith in destiny and almighty
It may surely become possibility and reality
She told that she can take chance in life at least once
Even though there was little time for any kind of romance
She believed in real bonding of two different persons
There was likelihood of spring arrival even in odd season
I thought for a while and begged for some more time
It was proper to offer on the spot any solution for time being
I thought to gain some space with arguments
It was for her in all the way critical moments
There may be hundreds of such cases
These can not be solved on advisory basis
They have to take care and caution of their own
Love is like seed and may emerge once it is sown
I felt tremendous joy and happiness
She had unique way of feeling and keenness
In the normal way she could openly advance
But she was noble and thought before at once

A mother's day special
Who can stop your from falling on the ground?
Are there any similarities with failures to be found?
You may find the favor and gain the corner
It is life and success has to come later or sooner
It is very difficult, to reach the top of the ladder
You got to do it without help from any leader
It is time consuming and sometimes very difficult
You succeed in your attempts at cost of pride and insult
Slowly and steady always go ahead and win the race
He has everything to exhibit with smiling face
The standing and position take him to different world
He must try to stand firm there and not develop cold
It is easy to sustain and remain at the bottom
You can forget the palaces and stay in small room
You may all the c comforts in living as ordinary man
You are at liberty to surge ahead as much as you can
It takes lot of energy in the form of sincere efforts
You try to maintain lead with good rapports
It is certainly bound to yield good result
People may find you as an honest and come to consult
Success sometimes may lead you to commit folly
It may not be your intention as is seen wholly
You may not be able to digest it as good person
The arrogance may take over from you without any reason
The person tends to become unreasonably blind and arrogant
He seems to think that the success has come of its own and instant
No one has done anything for him or not even by his contemprory
The transitional period has passed off and stayed there temporary
When such things take place in head
It takes person to fall back from lead
He fails to understand the mood and unable to read
He is bound to fail in all the respects without correct feed
He will try to find the faults with the events
This will compel him to pass unnecessary comments
It will generate lot of heat and dissension
It may prove his graveyard for the lack of passion
To sustain the grown and.live with it is great art
You only need good luck and very good start
Luck may favor reward you for sincere attempt
The initial reaction may not be slow but very prompt
Stay wherever you are and sustain
Curb the defeatist tendencies and contain
See to it that nothing goes against your interest
You may be able to judge and come out as best

You dear
I believe in you dear
You are no less than sear
You are my divine idol
Yet I love you and call
No bones or flash that appeal
Such ideas I always repeal
It is eternal feeling and wish
Without you it is completely unfinished
You showed me your affection
That speaks of your intent and honest action
What have I to offer as reaction?
When I have regard for you with satisfaction
Day and night you are with me
All my actions speak clear and are free
I sit under the vast and big tree
All my ideas escape from mind and flee
I travel all along with your memory
It enthralls me but never causes regret or sorry
I shall forever remain your only soul
We are two but in facts a single soul
What all you did to me in person?
Complete world was brought with reasons
You were my destiny and I longed
Took correct decision and never wronged
Blood flow in veins with warmth and attachment
It makes me to sink with heavy moments
I remain their in your broad arms with care
No one might have attempted or dared
How can I be the careless creature?
When you the only one in world as my future
May be you are not bodily available
Yet your picture stares me on the table
I feel each pulse of your heart
Almighty has placed inside as kind art
You speak little but convey in abundance
As if sea has widened its presence
I would love to last long
Wish that everything goes smooth and not wrong
You will be there for me as shining star
I shall watch and smile at from very far
Hearts two but soul one
Each breath and wish for someone
Shall cause no trouble or affect anyone
Should be blessed by all and cause worry to none

A love is eternal
Why love is considered as eternal?
Why it has so much impact as internal?
Why are we swept away in single stroke?
Why can’t it be hidden in thick smoke?
Yes, it is unique and uncontrollable
You think of only one world and capable
Everything moves on rightly as per your wish
You are the only species in pond as fish
Yes, it sends complete joy and makes us to dance
Though no one may observe it or glance
It has its own impact and relevance
It is purely accidental in its presence
What one should term it in any form?
No one can afford to remain ill informed
It is just feeling and comes from within
It is uncontrollable when completely filled in
World appears completely green in form of leaves
What it retains and what it releases?
No one may offer satisfaactory answer
The real answer may be lying with only fewer
It completely changes life style
You are in the air for a while
You move in cautious manner
Nothing appeals you any matter
It has offered you some way of living
You are led some thing in believing
Love has become assome source of aspiration
You have devoped deep and relation
It is going to be a reality soon
You are dreaming in hot afternoon
The world seems to you as completely fascinating
Something new in form of love is originating
Love has to survive and last long
You can’t be deceived or something can go wrong
It can’t prove night mare or end in dream
It is pure insight that will travel like beam

A symbolic life
I loved to hate certain things symbolically
Though I failed to make it out generally
I do not why we make some choices
Choose to do for self but create enough of noises
There is no mechanism to control over dual performance
It can not be brought under control or arrested at once
It is one of the weakest points we always neglect
We remain careful not to be caught and select
Do we ever respond or hear inner call?
There is big defensive protective wall
We take refuge and prefer umbrella cover
Wait for crisis to subside and blow over
For a moment we are carried away by timely desire
We may be noticed by many and subjected to satire
It is felt badly for little while and straightaway chosen the defense
There is full proof argument in favor to counter the offense
Many people may be selective in offering the defense
There may be lame excuse to offer human weakness hence
Everybody may unwillingly agree to accept the apology
As they are also suffering under the same psychology
Many a times I had taken recourse to deceive wife
I thought there should be some extra good moments in life
Even though I knew it may crate some worst situation
Then also I continued with extra marital relation
It did a lot of damage to personal life a well as to the reputation
I did not deserve any sympathy or sentence computation
It did not surface openly to criticize my action
I could sense adverse reception with hostile reaction
Every now and then we come out with sheer lies
The fate of many will be affected in families
This hard fact is forgotten despite existence of best knowledge
On the contrary the thrust is put on to drive the wage
We advocate for the maintenance of harmony and peace
We utter those words confidence and at ease
What comes out of hollow words in the real time of need?
When it is superseded by the importance of greed
You are gentleman so long you are not caught
You can advocate what ever you think can be bought
It is understood by all still not openly criticized
Everybody under the cover is same so generally obliged
We are just made of flash and bones
Live in different regions and zones
How to remain aloof when influenced by so much temptation?
Partly we can agree to it and partly live with negation

A nice ideas
Why can’t be shut the violence?
Why we prefer too see across fence?
Why is that we always remain tense?
Is there any logic behind or sense?
If no, then we must ignore its presence
It has to be avoided at all costs hence
We are here to prove our worth
There are plenty of things to do and dearth
Can we not create permanent impression?
We are ready to work in any session
We have strong resolve to come out with strong reasons
It needs no attention or special mention
We have created place in space
We too have quench for mad race
We have touched moon and tried to walk
But we are not prepared see eye to eye and talk
We are not prepared to build houses for the destitute
we are not prepared to open new institutes
we can spend millions on nuclear
in future what we want is still not clear
We may build many gambling dens
We may break the states and create separate regions
There is an attempt to send many to starvations
It has definitely escaped our observation
We have growing urge to know
We till forbid them to know and allow
It is bitter pills to swallow
We have to remove it completely and take vow
We know some of the things are easily in our hand
We can perform miracle at the end
This is secret of mankind and strength
We have enough courage to withstand go to any length
Everything has become mechanical now
We have all the expertise and know how
It lacks will power to address and assert
The flowers too can be grown in desert
We have plenty of resources
We can tap many new sources too
It has to be resolutely decided
The knowledge is to be shared and not confined
Can we not dream of land where there are no starvation death|?
Complete eradication of poverty by having simple faith
Complete movement of freedom with no barrier
Peaceful message of love and served as carrier
We might have failed in our performance
At personal level we might have excelled at romance
We have analyzed rightly what was our gain
What was real value of showers and rain?
Think of global scenario and express the concern
Many parts need attention and we should try to learn
Has there any bearing on our new and large concept?
Will it be considered as good gesture on our part?

Greatest Evil
One of greatest evil
That was going on with our will
Now time has come to make final stop
Facilitating their venture on the top
Slums are real curse
Devoid of all facilities of course
Illiteracy and crime on rise
We need to work on with promises
Think of emerging future
They are not very much sure
Of their life and contribution
They are kept away from distribution
Their rights and liberty is farce joke
Their life is mystery and shrouded under smoke
For whom do they live and struggle?
Certainly life at mercy in democratic jungle
Can we not provide basic amenity?
Freedom to live as granted by almighty
As human being and lovely soul
Can we not give humanely call?
Nothing may please then than honor
That has been taken away and now is slur
Why not we beg some nice efforts?
Go near to their heart with good rapport
We shall pretend no show
But wish them naturally to grow
Keep no ill will for their lovely future
Here stays the beautiful dream to nurture

An uncommon will
I feared the death through assassin’s bullet
I too was aware that people may soon forget
I thought to make my wish open in public
I was strongly in opposition to turn into relic
I wished to be buried under the grave
I am weak but still very brave
What I miss and what I have?
I want to return everything they gave
I was down to earth and remained among them
They praised at every time like gem
How can I forget their love and affection?
They remained calm an d at peace without any reaction
What is my contribution to their cause?
Absolutely nothing except their feeling to rouse
Trim them to face any eventuality in crisis
This was the only reason and basis
I was loved by them as next to incarnation
What was so unique in me for such observation?
As it happens in all the cases, it was just trust
It was to be reciprocated and was essentially must
I am not any dignitary or heavenly placed person
There can be many or unseen reasons
What actually seen was their undisputed affection?
I had nothing to do with my logic or action
Now a days that cares for departed soul?
Many heads parish in oblivion and role
No one takes slight notice or note of it
You must think and take decision when you are fit
I am ordinary human being surrounded by mere facts
I have no special quality or worthwhile tact
It was all alone a single asset and reserve
People thought I was the person to deserve
I never wished my ashes to be immersed in holy rivers
Many had thought it to happen with strong fervor
I wished them all success in life but refused to create even cemetery
Why all big people or dignitaries preferred running commentary?
Many advocated my ashes to be thrown from mid air to ground
Some strong attachment was believed to be found
It was believed that by doing so I shall remain close to soil
The sentiment was running high and continued to boil
I was dead against the cheap gimmick and advocated for simple burial
They had special affection and love and that can’t result into denial
How can one play with the popular sentiments and cash on popular wave
I had everything what any body could dream and have
It shall remain as permanent history
I never wanted it to be shrouded in mystery
What could be traced later on as cherished memory?
When I look back from heaven, I should not feel even slight sorry?

General explotation
How can you change world’s established order?
Is it not that we are on extinction border?
Do we not face complete annihilation from face?
Is there no competition or simple mad race?
Whole world depends upon total exploitation
Each one eats upon others one by one by rotation
If this is not done by nature then there will be an end
Not a single inch space will be left to stand
Sea life depends solely on killing of each other
Small creatures are killed by their own mother
Big whales make their meals from small fishes
World doesn’t end for them as sea is full of riches
Life is fast replenished with the arrival of fresh
Thus cycle goes on with eating of their flash
Fresh induction of sea life gives them enough room
There is no depletion or decadence of gloom
On land wild animals kill weaker ones
Strongest definitely survive in safe zones
It is how cycle is repeated endlessly
Life goes on smoothly and ceaselessly
Rich robs the poor with the might of money
In real life it thrives and doesn’t look funny
We may talk of tall order but surrender
Can’t resist the temptation and wonder
Smaller countries are bullied by rich nations
They fear of reprisal and maintain the relations
They talk of liberty and champion the cause of freedom
Give a call for uprising and commit the pledges to redeem
They have narrow national interest in their mind
They search for lame excuses and try to find
How to bring them under their complete sway?
So they don’t have and authority or complete say
World can’t be bowed down by simple logic
No cohesion or compulsion can do any magic
Only persuasion and help can change the scene
Permanent stand off may lead to no loss no win
No nation will barter their national interest
They will try to opt and find out the best
They can be forced or brought to compromise
Help in crisis with firm commitment and promises
Even Almighty has shown favored the rich
Poor are kept at bay and out of reach
They suffer at the cruel hands of fate
Help comes to them not at crucial stage
We may learn it at later stage
It will be beyond control to manage
No one will come to our rescue and relief
This only strengthens or firm belief
We may survive and manage the onslaught
So many miseries it has shown and brought
We need to learn more and not to be caught
What else we can do except to accept?

All of sudden
All of sudden whole sky got illuminated
It was wonder and no one new how it got originated
It has got relevance with the happening on earth
It was definitely a good sign to be linked with divine birth
Whenever this phenomenon occurred something was bound to happen
It was not to be just coincidence but new chapter was going to open
May be it was arrival of pure soul to take the refuge on lovely land
For the help of those depressed and deprived to strengthen the hands
All religion books are full of tales and speak of large volumes
It is totally unbelievable to have taken place in vacuum
Only pure soul with divine power might have witnessed such scene
It was to be rarest of rare that might have been observed and seen
“I shall visit the disciples when they are in need” verses read
You may find me among them at suitable time and lead
It is holy belief that hangs on very thin thread
You need to put trust, have faith and plead
It is how we have come to link the divine phenomena
It is totally unbelievable and unknown arena
It is reality and got to be believed with complete faith
Why do we remember almighty at the time of only death?
Just flash of lights in the sky for a moment is indication of bad omen too
Some bad may happen and believed by many is also equally true
It may so happen that some one might have been taken to heaven
Such miracles don’t happen often or witnessed even
It is generally believed to be rare occasion
The things to be laughed out simply is out of question
Such things happen once in a blue moon
All of sudden dark clouds rush in the sky in day light or noon
Whenever evil forces has taken over the helm of affairs or exceeded
The God has taken birth to hear the prayers from devotees and acceded
It may not be altogether true but it has happened at several places
The sufferings have been removed and brought the happiness on faces
Let us not undo the teachings of the divine power
It may cool your body as is felt in rainy shower
It has all the qualities to make you feel happy and grant the peace
Life is so lovely and to be spent completely at ease

With tragic calls
Life does not pass of that easily for all
Someone may find in it with tragic calls
No one wants it to be stormy or full of thorns
It may invade at any time without being warned
We are seized with full of future expectations
It is not only future but other questions too
It may be choosing of life partner
Along with me for passing all tests as beginner
I have dreamed of someone as an ideal man
He will take care of me as I have loved him closely as fan
He is not aware of my deep and internal feelings
I shall jump into foray with full willingness
It is life time dream of an honest upcoming female
She has no other option than to seek alliance with male
If that happens as per the choice and as perfect match
Many eyes may try to have glimpses and catch
It is still a mystery and puzzling question
I don’t want to make any of its mention
I just ask my conscious what type of life I would prefer to lead
I think someone may come forward when he has completely read
I have thought of remaining as far as possible a completely loyal
I may not want wedding to be grand or look absolutely royal
As you have remained central figure throughout at heart
I was careful in not beginning distrustful start
It may not come as total surprise
As there is no fixed cost or prize
I have nothing to demand for any union
It is only race for stable life with good companion
We come across lots of promises when likely to enter
The holy alliance and very much focused at the centre
There won’t be any dearth of sweet words
It will be offered in plenty when looking forward
It is not one time affair so that it may come to standstill
There will be enough of meetings with mock drills
So many queries and enquiries to lead to settlement
Very careful approach with avoidance of unnecessary comments
It is life time dream and one definitely takes wow to honor
It will not be simple matter or can be considered as minor
Any girl or boy may move cautiously with possible avoidance of unpleasant things
No one may be prepared for one in million chances for anything
* Life can not be taken as mock drill for future play even with utmost care*

Please Pay Attention Pt 1
Pay Attention Part One
Your eyelids begin to flutter, shy morning light yearns to peek in
Savor that fleeting moment between worlds
Mind, not in the dream world, nor totally awake
Savor that pleasantly confused state of mind
Of household sounds distantly intruding
Sift languidly through tattered remains of diaphanous dreams
Extend and enjoy this common to us all morning experience
That the majority of us completely ignore
Really pay attention
To your soul-mate, still asleep across the bed
Hair tousled o’er face and pillow
Look closely at that sleeping face and see the lines and wrinkles
That you, the kids, and daily life have imprinted on that brow
Don’t see her as you do every day. Look very closely
See her not, as you know her, but as a stranger would
See her as a unique individual, not with the sort of faceless familiarity
That we so blithely impart to those close to us
Really look, and you’ll see a new, different, unique person
Than you saw yesterday
Really, truly, pay attention
Take the time. Really, truly take the time
To savor, dissect and enjoy all the seemingly, yet not,
Mundane, things in your life
Don’t rush about unseeing, unfeeling, oblivious
To each everyday experience
There’s a vast different world that surrounds us. A parallel universe of sorts
Which most of us don’t have time or patience to see
Or maybe choose not to see
Please pay attention
I’m going to try to open your eyes more
To unseen, everyday experiences and abilities
That perhaps you have lost, ignored
Or never learned to exercise to start with
If you read this and are interested in further exploration of what we don’t see and experience on a daily basis, please let me know and I’ll do a “Pay attention” part two

Completely thrown
I was startled when facts were made known
I was taken back and completely thrown
I was picked from the streets for violation of modesty
No one heard my pleas and distrusted the honesty
I was picked on simple pretext that I may become threat
I was under wrong illusion and always considered self very great
This was the only reason that my overtures were wrongly taken
Even simple hello was considered as hostile and completely mistaken
I learnt a lesson from this humiliating experience
I was feeling now shame in her presence
She has cut sorry figure many times and asked for pardon
I was angry at her for being letting me down as don
I raised shirt color and moved freely as great lover
I believed in Romeo and was firm believer
I had heard enough of him and worshipped
But I never new that my wings may be clipped
I wanted to open up to her and tell about my feelings
I did not know then she was in and quietly willing
I had made overtures number of times but went unnoticed
I made futile attempts to woo her and get enticed
This was taken as affront to their pride and respect
Her family took it as insult decided quickly to act
I was rounded and roughed up in everybody’s presence
It added to my worry and made so much tense
It brought me almost to the reality and gravity of the situation
Everything was ruled out as no possibility for continuation
She stood firmly behind me and taken care to retrieve the position
We had loved each other and knew it was very good composition
I was now turned and reformed as good lover who knew all ethics
About the ups and down in the game and involvement of all mathematics
The trust and confidence was very much essential and formed basis
Now I was careful and laid some stress or clearly made some emphasis
Some of us are driven to the corner for rejection of offer
They fail to understand the situation and reason to differ
There might be many compelling reasons for saying no
It must be weighed carefully before allowing frustration to grow
To tell the truth requires immense will power and strength
A person can move on with honesty or go to any length
Still it can not be compromised on some of the aspects
As it may involve some of the good or bad acts

With Sugar Coat
I am half grown or opened flower
I need love and your affectionate shower
I gave this chance to none but only fewer
You are the one that stole my heart for ever
I prefer to remain under veil
Where no one can misunderstand me and fail
Touch the beauty and spoil the show
As I am destined to smell scent and grow
I have wonder all round to feel
People used to appreciate but same time wanted to kill
Crush me under their feet and walk over
I always needed safe passage and cover
You came in my life as smiling man
I felt at first sight to be your special woman
I don't know how did it happen?
I had never expected or dreamt even
Some people need careful attention
Need praises and special mention
As their presence it self is giving effect
We are bound to look at and act
I caught hidden pulse and agreed
As you had expressed it as no lust or greed
I decided to fall in your line
Some of the sentiments I couldn't side line
I shall stay with you for ever and cherish
I wanted a man of my desire with powerful wish
You fulfilled all my expectations
I m now ready for bond and healthy relation
I wish no more set back and suffer
I sincere believe and accept your offer
I may swim or sink in your boat
I wish your words are full of promises and with sugar coat

Perception and Ideology
You are a person of high resolve
Capable of flying high and certainly solve
All burning problems with high degree and care
This keeps you go high and wonderfully dare
Once you believe in projecting the target
Take calculated risk and watchfully act
How come achievement can elude the success?
When you have complete reach with full access
Any successful person may air his intention
Develop powerful instinct with all its prevention
What if plan runs into rough weather?
And what next if finds no favor either
Man is blessed with clear ideology
He has been blessed with it from almighty
He may dock it with powerful drive
Stay in race and successfully survive
What is seen in mirror is clear reflection
What you are is reflected with action
It can’t be different from what you project
Outcome may have direct bearing on your act
The world is open field
The void can’t remain until it is filled
Only person of far sight vision can survive in race
You can easily find the happiness on face
You must only project
When you are determined to act
Perception and beliefs don't change often
In case of life threatened even
Ideology and aims are interlinked
Only brave finds answer when they are successfully linked
We are simply made of earthen pot
We can be broken easily even before wars are fought

For number of years
As I have known you for number of years
Any bad news are refused to be heard by ears
You occupy most of my time in prayers
Yet I fear you are totally unaware
You may have some inkling
As to what can be reason for liking?
You may know the reason behind
I shall make no efforts to find
I have not put a word to him
I think chances are very thin]
I have special attachment and leaning
I want there to be good beginning
It is not bad to have feeling
But how to make it known that I am willing?
I shall leave it to him for best reasons
As he is nice and very good person
I know for sure that unknown love may mushroom
It may find favor with enough of space and room
If I have faith in destiny and almighty
It may become possibility and reality
I can take chance in life at least once
Even though there is little time for romance
I believe in real bonding of two different persons
There may be arrival of spring even in odd season
