Look towards sky
How helplessly we look towards sky?
Cut sorry figure and feel very shy
It is not your fault still that makes you to think
Why all of sudden your boat was capsized and sunk
It happens with many of the promising boys
They have learnt it while playing with the toys
So when it becomes the reality to face
All of sudden you find your non existent and out of race
Someone may blame it entirely on fate
It might be possible too that they have acted late
Some people are very lucky to have it without any problem
It is like cake walk and readily available to them
These factors are interwoven and formed as unavoidable parts
We can’t do away with it and normally can’t depart
We got to face the rough weather and continue with it
The action and course has to be chosen what seems totally fit
Some of the results are unexpected and can be taken as such
It is within your reach and caliber to go up to it and touch
If due to some of the reasons it is not turned into reality
Then it can’t be taken as setback or lack of quality
We are victims of the circumstances
You may take sight many instances
Where people are capable but still face failure
Life as such can not be taken for sure

Never a burden
Life was never a burden
Something may occur all of sudden
We continue despite all that even
Life cart is always to be driven
One may be lost or bogged down
It may be wrong on his part or fault of his own
You reap for what you have sown
The tree may also be same way grown
What do we expect then in coming days?
Wait for something unexpected and stay
Or face the challenge in whichever way
It comes and pushes our destination away
Despite all odds we have to maintain
Balance with way of life to sustain
Relation with nature and people around
New bonds with sweet relation is to be found
In each day there is something new
New hope with beautiful eyes to view
Only some art lovers can find and see
Otherwise it is always there and for free
We find everything very near
In our support without any fear
To take a new leaf and start the carrier
Scale the new heights without any barrier
Let us strive for new thinking
Let our ship never face sinking
It must float on the water to time to come
Daily new passengers in it to greet and welcome
Life shall move with some ups and down
We may wear sometimes lovely crown
But mind first it will be our own efforts
We shall be the one sailing boat to the port

How Can I? 2
stuck in my room,
another day i feel trapped,
doing what i don't want to do,
can't excape it,
you want to cut,
because it was your only
way out,
how can i continue to live?
with a life,
that has so many problem,
how can i tell my deepest problem,
when i know where they will lead me,
but, is it better than the place i
am now?
how can i find the strenght,
to get the help that i need?
when it so hard to accept,
that you were wrong,
after a whole year,
but, it better late than never,
wouldn't you say,
i'm tiried ot ending in the same place,
over and over,
because of stubborness,
when it just holding me back,
from doing what needs to get done,
but i'm left asking,
how can i change what i don't like?
when you on the thin line of,
reality and denial,
reality is hard to face,
while denial,
tells you what you want to hear,
but, than again,
that's the only reason i keep asking,
how can i?

Different look
She is neither a friend nor a foe
But my face always shines and glows
When see her on line with smiling face
Strong urges to talk but certainly not in race
I don’t know what pull is behind
But I have always found her kind
What a magnificent face with expressions!
I stare at her with so much of obsessions
No one would mind giving her a different look
She looks like idol carved out from black wood
Totally different from what other females may look like
Always draw my attention and get sudden strike
It is not some thing special that I wish to
State here but only what it appears to be true
She might have passed through troubled phase
But recent look gives ideal innocent face
It is nice to feel great about gorgeous woman
Even though some may point out as weakness of man
Yes sun can’t be hidden even if you try to
Whatever is seen and observed must be felt as true
I had been looking for a figure
That can speak little but reveal more
I found her to be absolutely a fit personality
Gentle in nature and nature wise having best quality
“Hanna” I would call her and respond as hello
The words may definitely reach her with fine flow
Let me see what will be the reaction of this ordinary poem
If not by her but certainly readers may appreciate it then

An individual has not begun to live until he can rise above the narrow horizons of his particular individualistic concerns to the
broader concerns of all humanity. And this is one of the big problems of life, that so many people never quite get to the point of rising above self. And so they end up the tragic victims of self-centeredness. They end up the victims of distorted and disrupted personality. … These are the people who cannot face disappointments. These are the people who cannot face being defeated. These are the people who cannot face being criticized. These are the people who cannot face these many experiences of life which inevitably come because they are too centered in themselves.

Not to capsize
Life is enterprising with full of opportunities
It may show good sign with little continuities
You can’t go forward sans vigour and strength
Path may be lost without proper wavelength
Life may have upheavals with ups and down
Even good progress may invite wrath and frown
The course has to be steered with careful count
Not to yield to pressure even if it mounts
Life boat is laden with ammunition and explosives?
It may bear burden if we have hostile relatives
Why to think of hate, anger, jealousy on boat?
There is every chance for it’s capsize when afloat
Life boat may face rough weather and storm
Relation may get strained and not remain warm
Damage may occur with little or no harm
No one can escape ………….
How to have smooth sailing without proper direction?
How to start from stretch and where to end the action?
Will we be able to sail with full load on route?
Either to surrender to fate or face the complete rout
Life is like boat and may face many challenges
Best way open is how to face and manage?
Luck may not side with or favour the tide
Success story may reveal even if you try to hide
Strange may be ways when dear one departs
Life will be in doll drums if fails with good start
Lucky may be those who find good treasure
Words may be less to express its pleasure
Still past may hound and future look bleak?
Honesty must prevail and action should speak
It will not matter what we gained or lost?
Love must be won over at whatever cost

From The Back
The door is slammed from the back
Nothing more is required to be at stake
Life was totally in disarray and completely fake
Remained half sleep always and not fully awake
People often say “life is to be enjoyed at full length”
Someone try it with might and extend with strength
For them it is never dying approach
Life may never end as such
You never know when the exit gate may open
It remains mystery when all of sudden turns against
Life seems worth nothing and useless
All worries suddenly rush on the face
Powerful kings have buckled under threat
When death has tried to approach and meet
It leaves behind tail of unknown agony to bear
All of sudden body is gripped with fear
Who would want to leave this earthly pleasure?
I am very confident and very sure
No one may opt for timely departure
They are ignorant about facts of fixed tenure
Life has to come to an end at any time
You are lucky to escape it sometimes
But you are sure to meet your fate
It may approach you soon or late
Well, this has been explained briefly
It can be understood and known simply
All we do and commit is not to long last
In one way or another it has to end fast
Not all may try to understand in its true context
They may try to avoid under one or another pretext
It is cheating of own conscience and mere excuse
Otherwise who can shut the eyes to reality and refuse?
Life is not all about to be spent or lived
It is to be understood and rightly believed
When you are sent here for performing the best
It should seized as opportunity and crucial test

Should We Die
Millions watch helplessly towards sky
Humbly ask for what is their fault and why?
Shake head in disbelief and find no other way
Open sky is refuge and earth only place to lay
Is God openly punishing for our simple crime?
Have we become so unreasonable in course of time?
Have we alienated the nature from its present level?
Is it not in conformity with rule or the sequel?
Are we going to face natural fury every year?
Is there no one in this world who will land ears?
Why such horrible suffering for all the years to bear?
Why no one is coming forward to wipe our tears?
God, do you have different yardstick for punishment?
Why poor only face the annihilation and banishment?
Will no messiah come on earth and take our care?
Will we find no place on earth to stay or go nowhere?
We may continue to suffer and also languish
Rich may not face onslaught under any anguish
We may be buried live under debris and perish
Sea waves may raise banner simply us to finish
Tidal waves and typhoon may not spare us either
No courage or strength to face the storm and wither
It will cause devastation at unimaginable scale
No body would survive to narrate the horrible tale
We may face slaughter if not awakened to reality
Human race may become extinct with lack of humanity
Let us rise to the occasion and share tragedy and grief
Start from the stretch with opening of new leaf
We may not receive help in need of hour
It may be coming late with little down pour
We may feel hurt but term it as destiny
Having no moral strength to rise in mutiny
O, lord or creator! Can you treat us alike?
Why rich get preference and poor face dislike
Are we the only creature meant to be lost?
Why should it not stop with or without cost?

True Love
When I first saw you
You totally blew me away
With your beautiful face and gorgeous smile
It feels like love at first sight
Having you beside me
Makes me a better man
You always bring out the best in me
And that’s one of the many thing I like about you
But some people are suffering because of our love
And I know that I’m the one to blame
Because they say that I’m not good enough for you
That I’m not perfect for you
I know that you don’t want me to go
And I know that you love me just the way I am
But I want you to have the best
For that I need to be the best
Even though fate is breaking us apart
I swear I will never forget you
Because when I think of you
I don’t feel that I’m alone
I just wish we could freeze the moments were together
All the happy memories we had
All the sweetest moment in our life
Even the worst thing we’ve been through
But for now I want to break-up with you
Not because I don’t love you because I do
I just want you and those people to see that I could be perfect for you
That we are meant to be together
I am asking you if you could wait for me
I promise that when I come back
I will prove to you and to those people that I’m perfect for you
I just want you to believe in me

Saw A New Morning
All of a sudden I saw a new morning
I'm locked up I want to be free
Out in the courtyard and over the wall then
My friends are waiting for me
Sixteen people are waiting to get me
Hoping to take me outside
I hear the sound of the snubnose behind me
I went along for the ride
Wind in my face and my bones they are aching
My soul must weather the storm
I must run till my back it is breaking
Desp'ratly I must keep on
Sixteen people are waiting to get me
Hoping to take me outside
I hear the sound of the snubnose behind me
I went along for the ride
La...
All of a sudden I saw a new morning
I went along for the ride
All of a sudden I saw a new morning
All of a sudden I saw a new morning
All of a sudden I saw a new morning
I saw a new morning (repeat 3 more times )

Mirror of life
Try to study.

Just put question
To self
And get answer

Look to the star
Follow the work

So many reasons
Incidentally we are God fearing persons
We have strong belief with so many reasons
It is broadly interwoven in complete mind
There is no pace for less scope for thoughts to find
Incidentally we are God fearing persons
We have strong belief with so many reasons
It is broadly interwoven in complete mind
There is no pace for less scope for thoughts to find
Faith sometimes compel us to depend on fate
We express helplessness and openly state
“Nothing is in our hand” as it is not destined
And we mutely agree to the things already imagined
Even highly educated people tend to bow down
They may curse themselves even if fault is not their own
This can be considered as a escapist tendency
One can only cut sorry figure and feel pity
We are for sure that only almighty is powerful
The life can end with consequence so sorrowful
This gives rise to faith blindness to succumb
Person never tries contest and remain mute and dumb
In one way it is good not to fight against unfavorable condition
It advises you to observe restraints and reserve the ammunition
It is nice to leave certain things for comfortable feeling
You might be certainly not for in or unwilling
If thing turn in your favor, you may pray god for success
You may even try to reason out for easy access
This has all happened due to luck and fate
Only fortune arrived in time from lucky gate

A hate to hate
Reality and not the dreams
It has to be like sun beams
To work for it like a team
It will come out like music with theme
There is no use to pass on the blame
It is reality and not the game
It has some reasons to materialize
You must have enough reasons to realize
Go deep and think over
Don’t find excuses or cover
You may find the answer
It may be felt only by fewer
Don’t loose hope and courage
You have to try hard and manage
You may be capable in your young age
Try to control it without resorting to rage
Infuse it with real colors of life
The world may be war torn and full with strife
You may have to walk on the edge of knife
Share the secrets with you lovely wife
Carry it on with so much of joy
Life as it stands for enough to enjoy
It may be contentment that is not to be rushed
Rest all are illusions not to be counted and pushed

All Of A Sudden
(andy partridge)
What can i say?
Why do we starve a thing thats near extinction?
From day to day,
These weeds of fear,
Are choking our conviction,
Life's like a jig-saw,
You get the straight bits,
But there's something missing in the middle.
All of a sudden,
We find the cupboard's bare.
All of a sudden,
We find heaven's not there.
All of a sudden,
We find the sun's gone cold.
All of a sudden
We find we're more than old.
All of a sudden,
We find that we've lost love,
So please don't push or shove because,
It's too late,
It's too late,
In all your hurry you've accidentally locked the gate
What can we do?
Trying to stem the flow of sand is useless.
It's up to you start holding hands,
And watch the balance redress,
Life's like a firework,
You're only lit once,
And you must stand and radiate correctly.
All of a sudden,
We find the cupboard's bare.
All of a sudden,
We find heaven's not there.
All of a sudden,
We find the sun's gone cold.
All of a sudden
We find we're more than old.
All of a sudden,
We find that we've lost love,
So please don't push or shove because,
It's too late,
It's too late,
In all your hurry you've accidentally locked the gate
Love's not a product you can hoard or pack a suitcase with,
It's more a way you have to give.
All of a sudden,
We find the cupboard's bare.
All of a sudden,
We find heaven's not there.
All of a sudden,
We find the sun's gone cold.
All of a sudden
We find we're more than old.
All of a sudden,
We find that we've lost love,
So please don't push or shove because,
It's too late,
It's too late,
In all your hurry you've accidentally locked the gate your hurry you've accidentally locked the gate.

Path Of Mirrors
They walk so close to you, yet so far away
Their eyes are lost, their faces fixed like stone
They walk behind the mirrors and here they shall stay
You walk with other souls liveng, breathing, yet for them they are alone
You walk through the hall way down the path of glass
You watch as they walk on into eternity, into the dark
They walk there behind the glass,
People around you going through leaving their mark.
They walk past your reflection as if you never saw
They walk through time as if time weren’t there
They know you would never aproach them
They know you would never dare.
They walk through the glass and look straight ahead,
They know nothing lies ahead, yet they know they can not turn back,
So they walk into nothing instead,
Passing you so all you see is their back.
You pause infront of the glass looking looking past,
You know that you shall not join them you know it is not your fate
You think about the footsteps you take, wondering which shall be your last,
You walk on again only thinking of their fate
Their faces emotionless the souls so cold,
You think of how you own skin feels, so warm,
You watch as the move like action figures made from a mold,
All the same, all waiting out the storm
The storm of life, the storm of death,
You walk along side them as they walk past everyone,
They watch ahead never turning, never looking above,
They turn to noone.
You walk along beside them as they take no notice to lifes dance,
They only walk past, walk through the mirrors of fate,
Kepping one great stance,
You watch people finding their fate.
Their faces so still, alone in the world, without hope
You watch them walk on, you watch them pass
You see their unmoving faces, as they walk up the endless slope
They walk along, behind the glass.
You turn to watch as their souls move on,
You reach out your hand to touch the glass,
Only to feel the glass is gone,
You watch as your hand passes through the glass.
As you hand melts through one by one the spirits turn,
One takes your hand and pulls your arm through,
More spirits feel your presence and more turn,
They watch as you melt through.
You watch your world leave as you leave it,
You have found you fate and not you are here along with them,
They walk on as you pull your body through, leaving behind the sweater of life you knit,
You have come and joined them.
You look back at the mirror to look at your face,
And you see your eyes becoming lost,
As you enter their race,
The race that shall never end, the race through eternity, for now you are lost
You skin feels so cold you face feels so hard,
You walk with them, as one
As you emotions turn hard,
In true time you are done.
You walk with them, walk alone
They walk so close to you, yet so far away
As everything becomes an endless drone,
For now you are here to stay.

No One Knows Their Last Day
Tears continue
To fall
Running down her face
Frantically wiping them away
Still they come
She lets them fall
Going through all
Of the memories
All of the laughs and joy
Soon he will be gone
She won't be able to hear his voice
Feel love as she
Hugs him
All that will be gone
She won't be able to see him
To see him talk and walk and breath
No one will say it straight to
Her face
Everyone is denying the
Harsh cruel reality
That just hit her in the face
She cries herself to sleep
Exhausting herself utterly
And completely
No one ever knows when
Their last day on earth will be

Face my Face
i hate people who enter my life, believing that they have seen
me in the dark, knowing that they have lost my identity, like a
shadows of the crops, worn out in the field
i know only of myself that, when anybody talk about me,
my whole day would be empty, what makes you a real man, when
when everybody say that you have all the nice quality, when you
give them all the opportunity to be happy
yes, all is tainted with artificiality, though in every hearts, you know
where you should start, but your heart is already freaky then its easy
to escape reality, what dignity you possess, when you always
smile with fancy, forgetting that you are somebody in your
own self you are big as a tree
i would rather be nobody as long that people looks at me, as if
they meet someone beyond their capacity, i feel that i am in mess
when my friend knows that i am the best, all i need is the quest
to accept that life is empty, when i am greedy
i keep on wondering, when i feel that i am weak they are strong,
i always tend to see no more than to look back the things that makes
me sad, deep in my heart i believe, i can survive in the game of
life, their must be no sad
face to face i must face the clouds that blacken my day, the blood,
that taint my heart, the dress that tore my skin, the oneness of my
soul cleanse my whole self, to take the uncertainty of today, i must
take this moment to live, what meant to live as the day is
mourning, scratching my grave
do it now, for tomorrow maybe it will never come............

Where Would I Be Without You?
I told you everything,
Only because I felt alone,
Thought nobody would actually care,
I was shocked you did,
Everything i been through,
Have been hard.
I know I put you through alot,
But only because I didn't know where to start,
Losing somebody I loved,
Made everything a bit rough,
Not knowing if my life would be the same,
Made me scared when ever I had to face reality,
Everything I been through,
I've taking the easy way out,
Afraid to face the truth,
Was impossible to face,
But, once I know I have the strengths to make it through,
Makes me wonder where I'll be without you.
