Distrust And Fear
We live amidst distrust and fear
The scenario is changed forever
Everybody may be hiding face with tears
As some of the things are difficult to bear
It is not the fault of time
We are responsible for it sometimes
Nothing has changed even nature
We are uncertain about future
Even humanity aspect has taken ugly turn
The kindness and love is not likely to return
We make false promises and impose deception
Everything has gone sea change from inception
We have adopted artificial and hardened stance
We want to make it sure without taking chance
We want to function in nobody’s presence
So much foolishness and lack of sense
Even near ones is keeping distance
They look different and have strange stance
Everything is weighed in terms of gain or loss
Not the same relation as earlier it was
Some friends have struck and stayed near
They listen to and act and patiently hear
It gives me relief when they call as friend and dear
Those words have eluded me and ears
Live some the loveliest moments if you can
Unhappy moments may invade in chains
You may live short in life span
As everything may be vanished even if with good plan

A Book, Never Read
Many, many years ago, I experienced a loss most profound;
Now I view the same as a blessing-a dichotomy to confound;
I no longer need solace; I no longer grieve-
Any sense of loss I may have felt, I begged its leave;
I think not of moments lost; nor of a life, without;
My mind has removed, forever and always, any doubt:
For, my most heart-wrenching loss is now my gain;
My heart's poignant relief, supplanted its deepest pain!
Nary hath a moment come, since this day of change,
Where my former sense of loss, seemed anything but strange;
I am begotten from what I lost, though there, it ends;
I live my life with this knowledge, no matter where it sends
Me, or any other I may love-for, he is now and ever, dead-
Gone forever, forgotten completely-as though a book, never read!

If You Want My Love
(J.P.Maunick / G. Harvey / P. Lackey)
There was a time when no one
Could ever take your place
[That's not the case anymore]
Took for granted that tomorrow was ours to play
Boy things have changed
Nothing stayed the same
When you chose to move away
Chorus:
Haven't heard your voice in so very long
Say I've been missed but I wouldn't know
I might be better off living on my own
'Cos love won't last now that hope is gone
Promised the distance wouldn't change a thing
Now the fault is work, it's keeping you away
You'd try harder if you want my love
If you want my love
Careless intentions
Is what this has become
[I'm struck with a broken heart]
Here we're flowing on emotions
Of what once was
Boy things have changed
Nothing stayed the same
When you chose to move away
[move away]
Chorus
Looking back on how things used to be
No one could tell me that this would be our destiny
And now I'm facing life on my own without you baby
Though we're miles apart - you had my heart
I'm tired of the confusion I'd rather just be freinds
[There's no hope of a second chance]
No sense in going through the motions
Like it's not the end, like this is not the end

One By One
Bobby lakind/michael mcdonald
Where and why Im destined to go
Right here and now thats all I know
On either side future or past
Neither is real both fade so fast
So one by one were given these moments to live just as one by one theyre taken away
So one by one Im taking each day in my stride
And one by one the memories stay
Good times are still there to find
When times are their worst
Keep your eyes open wide
cause through it all are moments that shine
And moments that glow
Im gonna be there for mine
So one by one were given these moments to live just as one by one theyre taken away
So one by one Im taking each day in my stride
And one by one the memories stay
Even when youre close to a dream
It can still let you down
Youll always have a chance to give up
So why do it now
So one by one were given these moments to live just as one by one theyre taken away
So one by one Im taking each day in my stride
And one by one the memories stay

Time To Fear
Picture me on the edge of sadness
I was too blind to see the truth
My hearts beating fast I'm not alone
but you're not there
Friendly smiles steal a glance
But me I'm furious inside
Can I get out of here now
Everything is falling down on me
And deep inside my mind I know I love you
Time is that all I really got to fear
From all these precious moments of my life
Time is that all I really got to fear
From all these precious moments of my life
You say I do always wrong
So you must hurt me again
I feel so sorry
but you do not
And you're not here
I question why I left you
Ain't love when under your sway
Will I be safe in here now
Eveything is falling down on me
And deep inside my mind I know I miss you
Time is that all I really got to fear
From all these precious moments of my live
Time is that all I really got to fear
From all these precious moments of my live
Time is that all I really got to fear time time
Time is that all I really got to fear
From all these precious moments of my live
Time is that all I really got to fear
From all these precious moments of my live
Time time time time
Such Memory
No use to keep such memory
When I feel so sorry
No words to feel and no soul to touch
Grief and pain hurting me so much
What did you give me in early dawn?
Few moments of not my own
Just a tease and few tears
Not to remember it at all and bear
You did flood me with down pour
I felt dejected, painful and sore
You left like lion with roar
I was left behind sobbing in rear
You crushed me with your mighty hands
What could I do at the dying moments?
You were there to rejoice at victory
I had nothing left such as to feel sorry
It may be one sided story to tell
Sometimes it may prove like living hell
There is not much left to narrate
You can call it uncertain fate
I may live some more years
My ears may not credibly hear
Those sweet words from your mouth
As I may turn my face towards south
The sun may be heading towards west
After delivering all the good from east
It is left to us for realizing the good
The meaning behind it is clearly understood

Forever
Take these roses all from me
Let me live, let me be
For a little while
Let my eyes,
See everything and nothing in their time
I do not mind
Who've guess I'd learn
To let the walls around me burn
Light up the hillside
My words, I ate them for so long and nothing changed
It was just the same
And I don't know if you see me
But I can tell you your face is clear
I will see you...
Forever
Forever
I will see you
Forever
Forever
Call me close once again
Call me teacher, call me friend
Just like the first time
Call my name, it echos around me in this room
Its all you
I don't know if you hear me there
But it's dark so no one cares
I will hear you...
Forever
Forever
I will hear you
Forever
Forever
I wanted you to be everything to me
Now I've got to learn to carry on
I know I cannot hide this emptiness inside
But nothing is the same since you've gone
Send me letters from above
Send me strength, send me love
Such sweet love
Sing me songs that echo in my head and in my heart
That's where you are
And I don't know if you feel me here
I can tell you one thing that's clear
I will feel you...
Forever
Forever
I will feel you
Forever
Forever
I will hear you
Forever
Forever
I will see you

Take these roses all from me
Let me live, let me be

Remember Me
Dear moments, dearest, stay please don't go
Don't let long hours kill my heart
Poor heart you need me here I know
I wish to stay yet I must go
Then I'll die without you
Come come future dear moments wait for you
It's Fate who bids not you not me
It's once together once apart
Now drie your tears take what I say
When I've gone here you can still keep me
Within your heart I'll live a memory
Days come and go
Years pass quickly
Today's faithful friend
Might tomorrow betray
When years've passed
When faces changed
Might you dear friend
Remember me!

Why
There is a chance I could be losing you
Gotta let my love surround you
Cant go down without a fight
And I wont hurt you girl, I promise you
Its the pain , Im living for you
Its a broken dream but I still adore you
Why , why ,when the feelings gone
(you cant explain, we live in sun, we live in rain)
Free me or leave me
I will always forgive you
For you are my moments and you are my hours
Forever I live you
Love me or lose me
You will be my desire
There aint nobody taking this heart that youre breaking
And no one can take me no higher
There is a reason why this world is round
Theres a fire all around you
Im just following the light
Ill never be the one to make you cry
Its the tears Im crying for you
Im a broken man but I still adore you
Why , why when the womens gone
(you cant explain, we live in sun, we live in rain)
Free me or leave me
I will always forgive you
For you are my moments and you are my hours
Forever I live you
Love me or lose me
You will be my desire
There aint nobody taking this heart that youre breaking
And no one can take me much higher
Free me or leave me
I will always forgive you
For you are my moments and you are my hours
Forever I live you
Love me or lose me
You will be my desire
There aint nobody taking this heart that youre breaking
And no one can take me much higher
Free me or leave me..... (fade out this verse)

Aims of Earthly Life
There are tears to shed but much more to wipe;
There are joys to live for but more to give;
There are days to remember and some to forget;
There are places to visit but some to avoid;
There are friends to make and foes to love;
There are moments special that we can never forget.
There are smiles to show but more smiles to evoke;
There are laughs to make but much laughter to create.
There are roles to play and goals to attain;
There are footprints to leave and more scars to remove;
There are duties to perform than ones to demand;
There is love to take but much more to make!
There are wishes to make but more promises to keep;
There are dreams to realize but more realities to dream of;
There are hopes to live life and travail to cope with;
There are words to hear but better ones to utter;
There is advice to give but more to live by!
There is scant time in life but none to waste!

Remember last year
I well remembered last year
Nothing to appreciate much or like to hear
It was as usual great year to live with and remember
I remained calm during the period and behaved as good member
I don’t know how the New Year will start or commence
I have great expectation from it hence
I must fully gear up to meet it at once
I have vowed to keep the positive stance
Not to bear any hard feelings and nicely describe
Opening up of fresh page from book to inscribe
The short coming of yesteryear and not to repeat
Make all effort to strengthen the relation and make very sweet
It is nice to adapt to new change
It is demand of the age
More you drift to days less is concern
But certainly the mark improvement in turn
It does not need any “u” turn
You must acknowledge and return
To your good qualities to surface
And leave behind everything without trace
This is exactly what is expected of and must be done
Whatever has been done is totally forgotten
Coming cays must prove fruitful and decisive
It must end with success and look positive
The festivals are meant for arousing passion
Brotherly attitude for fellow brethren with compassion
If need be with frank and open admission
All will be well when seen it as submission
Why make life so vulnerable?
When we are absolutely capable
The future can be shaped if not decided
Rest all will look fine and coincided

Convex
Hold, hold me down, make me wish, make me wish for air
Call out your name, slowly drain the hate out of me
You're all the same, half inane, lack of brains.
Too much time I'm on my own again
Too much thought to ever see again
Too much sense to ever hear again
Too much hate to see a different end
Too much fear to concentrate again
Too much love to ever feel again
Ugly fears, Ugly face
Ugly thoughts, Leave no trace
Of innocence
The world inside breaking down
The world inside breaking down
Murder all these feelings trapped inside
Murder all these feelings trapped inside
reject everything reject everything
reject everything reject everything
reject everything reject everything
reject everything reject everything
Too much time I'm on my own again
Too much hate to see a different end
Too much fear to concentrate again
Too much love to ever feel again
Ugly fears, Ugly face
Ugly thoughts, Leave no trace
Of innocence
Holding on to words that let go softly
As you whisper into my ears only
Drowning in a pool of all of the tears
Nights and days they seem to drag on
All around you sense the sound
You don't even listen any more

Another world
There is the another world to live with
You don’t have to act mad and open the teeth
You can secretly enjoy the kingdom
Such a fine joy can be enjoyed seldom
When you have run out of all the options?
You resort to explore imaginative land
You receive the applauses and wave the hand
Court room is filled with people and good music from band
It is not harming anybody’s interest
People want to enjoy it at its best
It may not be real world but completely illusory
He may be getting advices from the advisory
When life comes to an uncertain stage?
The person is puzzled and finds it difficult to manage
What makes him to go away from the present scene?
It is his wish that he should be there always and seen
We exactly can’t term it as fool’s paradise
Nothing is sold there as pure merchandise
Everything is available and within grasp
It is very easy and convenient task
So many things shape up according to your wish
You may have desired end with fine finish
It is desired land for fools and foolish
They may rule here permanently and never perish
There are symptoms of losing the balance
You may act funny in somebody’s presence
The problems have seized with more worries
Nothing is coming to you as solution even if hurried
Thousands of thoughts invade at every moment
You are not in position to offer any comments
It grips you in uncertain stage with fear
No one shares your grief and patiently hear
You have nobody on to your side to support
You had banked upon them and had very good rapport
The desertion has come at crucial juncture
When your future is at stake and unsure
It is best way to get lost in imaginative land
You are surrounded by nice friends
There is no worry and tension
Fear and loss is out of question
I suggest it to be made free zone
One should visit it and make others known
What happens if one gets relieved artificially?
Either it is believed or sensed really
What we fear most is its credibility?
It proves your failure and inability
In no way it, lessens your burden
You are shocked all of sudden
Love to live with whatever you have
Think of your self and believe
No matter long you may suffer
There is so much to differ
Live in normal condition
The key is lying with you for ignition
Either defuses it with strong will power
Or stand fast to face it in shower

Papa you too....part II
I continue to wonder and also enjoy,
Rejoice at home but not others to annoy,
Tease papa always with broad smile
Soon it was to prove deception for while
If myth was reality and ready to explode,
Dark clouds were at horizons ready to invade,
Time has come when spade is to be called spade,
Memory is short and ready to fade,
One fine morning I ventured into garden,
Flowers were in boom and fruits so laden,
Blossom could be seen and was at its peak,
Future was to turn gloom and soon to be bleak,
I heard laugh and murmuring voice,
It was my papa roaming with lady nice,
Was this real papa who used to be so kind?
I was loosing sense with disturbed mind
I held long breath and wept for while,
Papa at home always used to smile,
we may now loose pap by extra mile
in our own home we may live in exile
was mother at fault that she never learnt?
Did she know already and allow finger to be burnt?
I didn't know as what is to be done,
Is that to be called fate which took on us sudden?
I sat restless but not preferred to hate,
Papa used to come home not very late,
There was never a question where I had to rate,
Was that not cruel game played by the fate?
I still do relish and find you papa dear,
You may have been bitter by long many years,
Mom being ugly you couldn't her bear,
Life may be very hard and out of gear,
You may have compelling reasons,
But you never changed with seasons,
You took great care and looked after us well,
Life continued to be difficult and living hell,
Papa I see the reasons behind,
Though it may be new for me to find,
I won't be carried away by heavy wind,
Heart may feel heavy, thoughts full in mind,
Papa I never blame you for simple reason,
you have been always kind and also human,
Had it been fact so and you with other woman?
I too feel as a female and not as simple layman,
had it not been papa you so dear?
We would have lived always with unknown fear,
Would have faced woes and no one could hear,
Could have lost simply with no patience to ears,
So to say papa you are still the best,
At least we could find home as nest,
We continue to rest trying our best,
Days may pass and future will be test,
I never regret your decision precise,
Hold you with high esteem in our premise,
Never I may utter a word even at my demise,
I say this to self and make you promise

Thought over origin
Did you ask ever or thought over origin?
Whether you were on right side or in margin?
Why have you been chosen as his emissary?
To create love in the hearts of an adversary
Why were you chosen over thousands of others?
What had He in mind while taking into account factors?
May be you had little leanings on kindness and mercy
You had no attachment for lust or money
I did analyze sincerely about the worldly affairs
I saw some of the short cuts taken were not very fair
Still it was not that difficult to live among and survive
With good faith and belief it was nice to lead and live
If you think little deep about your mission and its probability
You will come to know about the importance of continuity
Life is like flowing water with all its living substance
Spreading the part of its treasure on the way at once
It is not really important who gets most of the benefits
Whether weakest falls and ablest survive with it
It is to be seen whether fruits enjoyed equally by all
Without creating any kind of bitterness or distrust wall
If you think you can live amidst all ills like lotus
Nothing like that as it is adventurous like circus
All animals are kept in control by a ring master
So not stepping out of lines and attack faster
Greed, anger, lust and deception is all that we have
Accepting little but not absorbing all or not fully to crave
These are all expected from nice human being
Despite all that evils we carry happiness we bring
Tolerance and respect for fellow human being is all that required
No one may impose it but sincerely it may be admired
It one can perform it exceptionally well
The world will be made heaven with different tales to tell
This is not simple idealism but true essence and reciprocal
What else we will present to Him on our arrival?
The account will not be closed till we regret failure
So it is better to live in with full consciousness in future
We may ask excuse for ourselves by presenting in prayer hall
We may bow down head in shame as it will pinch in all
It may remind us about guilt in His presence for forgiveness
With all his kindness to live again with ugliness
There is reprieve, blessings and above all open invitation
Number of good quotes with results and citation
Not all to remember but only His worthiness at heart
I think it will be end of something and very good start

Alas, Love, Alas
And now i'm dismissed
I don't know what the love is
If there always will be tears
And the souls never will find the peace
Why the lovers had became so cruel and insensible
Who can bear all these
Are these the new rules of the love?
Even the love changed it's face
Alas, love, Alas
If the humanity's cruelty
Even changed your face
Nothing in this world will stay the same
Alas, world, Alas
Step back my soul
let's live in peace alone
While the meaning of real love is missed
How the world can be so unreal
Even the love changed it's face
Alas, Love, Alas
If the Humanity's cruelty
Even changed your face
Alas, world, Alas

Listen To
Give a landing ear and listen to
That may not be sensational but true
As you near to catching its sense
You will feel happiness and will never be tense
We have no time to hear patiently
We fear of being commented adversely
Or bear in grudge that it may turn ugly
But that has not been understood truly
If heard unclear then it may create uneasiness
The tension lines may rush up on the face
You may try to avoid unpleasantly spoken words
It may drag your feet instead of going forward
If we can create little peace around
So many things can be found
You have so much to give and take
As it everything is here and at stake
We miss a close and sacred link
Others may force you to flee or sink
You need to talk and communicate
Mention clearly and honestly indicate
You can catch the words even if spoken gently
Its impulse is understood and caught silently
There should not be any misspell in return
As it may then make wrong gesture in turn
So converse freely and move closely
It may look sometimes nonsense and silly
Yet it carries powerful message
To remove hurdles and create smooth passage
We have lived uselessly so far
We talk less of peace than war
Now time to come close and spend leisure moments
It has been realized now as heavenly sent

If You Cannot Love Nature You Cannot Love Life
In a Human World where greed and narcissism is rife
If you cannot love Nature you cannot love life
With what I say here you may well disagree
But that's your opinion and that's fine with me.
We need her to live on her we do depend
Our marvellous Mother Nature humanity's friend
And if you cannot love her it does seem sad to say
On the road to enlightenment you've lost your way.
You do not love Nature you do make that clear
But to hear you say so much is so sad to hear
Out of an act of Nature the reason you are here today
Yet sad to think respect to her you cannot pay.
You see it as okay that more trees are cut down
To make way for new factories in the big town
And if you cannot love Nature though from her you gain
Then you cannot love life I do say it again.

A live together or live to gather?
What does it mean to say live to gather?
Will it be a correct advice to son from father?
When he says in this term means earn more
Do something to earn so time does run out before
We all live in life to eat and gather more and more
We fail to deliver anything good before reaching shore
You got to gain the ground and pass the taste on floor
It is life so you will have to face all odds waiting in store
It is living in harmony with good relation
Inner strength reveal in the form of good elation
Solving all problems before it raises any question
Listening attentively to the piece of advice or suggestions
It is word of jugglery which makes us to live in confusion
Living in together means facing life with lot of energy and infusion
Trying to sort it smooth it out before it raises its ugly head
Joint efforts to counter the menace and wisely read
What is use of living to gather when there is absolutely nothing to gather?
They are all relations and stand in the form of brother, mother and father
What is essence of living together means synchronizing the efforts?
Live together with aim of maintaining relation with good rapport
We may go on collecting enough of wealth till the end
It will be great love loss and life will be dry without friends
You may get everything but without any sweet relations
All material gains at feet but no joy at heart without soul elevation
It is something more to live together than to strive for live to gather
Both are equally important for life to pass the time with wonders
You can live peacefully if you have gathered enough to last
Life can be at receiving odds and may run out very fast
It is mere coincidence that we live apart but still live together
We definitely want to sail smooth and go still further
We don’t want to disturb anybody and try for very good passage
This is how we accept the challenge and deliver it as message
Sometimes we don’t see eye to eye and live at opposite poles
Relation is strained and can be witnessed with lot of holes
It is useless to call live in relation when there exists none at all
It may then amount to total breakup in relation and sudden fall

A suicidal tendency
The dangerous thought takes shape in head
It drops you suddenly living condition to dead
The person constantly thinks why he is still alive?
What he should do or not to do to survive?
The desperate person is pushed to the extreme corner
He doesn’t have any wish to live or for support to garner
The fresh roses are plucked as if by the Gardner
The life to them seems to be guided not by God but others
They would always wish some one to be very near
Life is difficult for them and they very much fear
They are total failure for not finding any partner
They realize it not worth to live without any dear
They hear death bells ring in their ears
The life seems to be shortened by many years
They find no charm and useless to live
They live in fool’s paradise and firmly believe
The hear beats are deserting their movement
They may cease to function at any moment
Nothing can prevent or kill their defeatist tendencies
You die thousand deaths with short interval frequencies
The is one of the most deadliest phase
The life is not spent at ease
You have no means to live with new release
You think life is nothing but on short lease
You want to end it up at crucial juncture
The life has come to standstill or as if down with puncture
You see no utility or any purpose in future
They are in desperate mood to end the tenure
