One Sided
Is it not one sided?
When not put forward or confided?
How can that be stolen?
When not a word of love is spoken
No one may ever disregard
If that is done with total regard
It is never tore apart
When you are inseparable part
What can be known stand?
Better understanding to befriend
Vow to stand for each other
Hand and hand and completely care
It may serve no purpose
If only you suppose
Offer daily rose
And think you have chosen
Any change is welcome and good
If not deceived and well understood
As love demands for supreme sacrifice
Dedication and commitment with full of promises

Everything together
Everything together
There is answer for every question
One needs to introspect and clearly mention
What he or she wants with desires
Then question comes to reject or admire
You were not sincere in your attempt or try
You were ignorant and repeatedly asked why
It irritated me a lot and I decided to leave
There after took and heavy breathe and sigh
You love was one sided and full of infatuation
Love can’t build on that base or relation
It is give and take, and demands full of sacrifice
Life is not just trade but full of commitment and promises
Heart is broken or felt hurt when it has some feelings
One sided attachment can’t be called any kind of willingness
It is misjudged attraction and demands severance
That relation must end without question at once
Love can’t be termed as genuine or enough
One can’t be indifferent or can keep it dry or rough
It is just bond that takes life course further
Swim or sink, joy or pain is shared equally and together

Fragments Of Solid Stone
Assumptions understood,
Hampers an understanding one demands.
Clarity misted in foggy speech...
Makes less sense,
When passed from first
To second hand.
How to keep integrity protected,
When it is infected with flaws?
How can statements be respected...
When truth is kept behind shut jaws?
Not a shred of honesty seeps,
When one seeks to appease...
With a purpose to awe!
Assumptions understood,
Hampers an understanding one demands.
Clarity misted in foggy speech...
Makes less sense,
When passed from first
To second hand.
And taking a stand,
To reveal realities be known...
May be tossed about like pieces of plastic,
To convince distractions of the masses,
These are fragments of solid stone!

True Commitment
I've got the rain of sulphur on Soldom and Gomorrah,
But do share your tender love with me;
For true commitment means doing it,
And like the bank and the river.
Offer your pitcher and do not urge me to leave you,
For obedience is better than sacrifice!
And like your horn full of oil towards my love.
True love is part of the risk of life!
And with your sweet love to care about;
But true commitment is all that is needed on this love.

I Believe
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And i believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
We'll stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And i believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
We'll stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way we've always planned
I still remember how it used to be
Seclusion in our love so deep
A world to touch that meant so much to me
And promises we couldn't hope to keep
The cool romance and nights of ecstasy
Slip slowly by on paper wings
The cold reality of you and me
Came creeping like a storm cloud gathering
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And i believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
We'll stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way we've always planned
The balance of our love hangs tenderly
A careful step through broken glass, yeah
One thoughtless word could kill a memory
And days we loved together in the past
I give and take i do my very best
To keep this vision that i've seen
I give respect if you could just accept
There never really was a perfect me
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And i believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
We'll stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way we've always planned
You walk away and see yourself in retrospect
Remember all of love's first visions
Step aside try to see just what went wrong
Living together isn't easy all the time
I believe in you if you believe in me, oh
There's still the chance that we can find romance, yeah
I know we can
I believe in you
If you believe in me
And i believe that faith and hope and love brings harmony
United once again
We'll stand there hand in hand
And put love back together just the way we've always planned
I believe in you, if you believe in me
I believe in you, i believe in you...
United undivided...

As An Insult
I took it as an insult
It is was terrible and difficult
How can an earnest offer be declined?
Why does she not see reason and defined?
Well all those seasons were for me to analyze
She had pushed me in corner and generalized
I deserved her hand for life time stay
She gave me shock and preferred to be away
I gave thought from another angle
May there be some reasons with a love triangle
She has every right to be master of her destiny
I gave all the reasons fair try and left it to the almighty
Love was not that kind I understood
Neither was it tonic nor a food
But a strong bond to take one out of wood
If not then it was better to stay out for good
Love is not an isolated affair
That can’t be termed as fair
What you feel may not be good for her
Rather love her more but don’t force her to bother
You look at the sky and its vastness
Complete blue but no shine on face
No one may judge what is hidden in belt
This is the way how love is felt
It demands sacrifice and not words
Prepare for readiness and always look forward
No relation can be on rock unless strengthened
Some plants may come up if earth is dug or softened
Now I have every reason to be satisfied
At no stage she had compromised or lied
It was one sided feeling and deserved to be left
There was no let up in relation or complete shift
I consoled self and came to the terms
It was good to take decision and make turn
Who knows what can be good for future?
I left it to future course that may take place and assure

Stand By Love
You know my heart beats rhythm and my dreams still take me higher
Ive travelled round the world but they cant cure my desire
The city looks pretty tonight
Hold on now lets go till morning
Get up on love and stand by me
Stand by love, stand by me
Im a shell shocked lover, under cover thats my game
Im your long lost brother, little sister whats your name
I feel so alone
Im stranded and so far from home Im calling
Get up on love and stand by me
Stand by love, and stand by me
Stand by love
Love - stand by love stand by me
Stand by love stand by me
Give me one good reason why you dont come play with fire
cos when the earth starts moving you know Im no liar
The city looks pretty tonight
Oh hold on now lets go till morning
Get up on love and stand by me
Stand by love, and stand by me
Stand by love stand by
Stand by love
Stand by love stand by me
Stand by love stand by me
Stand by love stand by me
Stand by love stand by me

Admiration
Admiration
To those
Who love and live
With faith and re-live
Admiration
For those
Who believe in sacrifice?
Stand dedicated with promises
Admiration
To those
Who wants to serve the poor?
With no lip services but actual workers
They may stand all tall
Receive tumultuous call
Respect and honor wherever they go
It is small gesture on our part to flow
Little bit of compassion and love to arrive
For down trodden and deprived
That shall be called real service
You may have life to spend at ease

Love Making
What do we think of love making?
Does that not need complete backing?
Pure understanding with total commitment
In fact a holy and sincere moment
Does it need show of gesture?
Are they confident or very sure?
That they may blossom in desert
No certificated need from an expert
It is self controlled origination
With no ill feeling or bad intention
It can be ordinary individual’s safe heaven
A place to live in without asking even
Under open sky few exchanges of words
Commitment to go ahead and look forward
Shape the destiny and mould the way
Staying together till the end and not going away
Not all people may be lucky
The situation can become so sticky
It might prove sometimes very difficult
But love has distinction of its own with fine cult
Let no hurdle be created in their cruise
It is their wish and choice
Let us wish all the best in their new resolve
Let them stand together, look forward and solve
It is natural process and must be respected
At least once we must remain non- reacted
It comes as once in life time chance
It must be honored and strengthened at once

Let There Remain
Let there remain no doubt in our mind
Women are good at heart and very kind
That is how all legendary tales reveal
We are part of old traditions and certain feel
They have adored our life at lovely homes
At big house or hut they have always welcomed
With their hospitality and mild nature
They have made us feel proud for the future
Her role has not been confined to mother alone
She had been source of strength and always blown
In the direction very much favorable to us
With total dedication and devotional trust
I felt like bowing head to her dominant role
One of the recent happening has definitely stolen
Lime light and they have stood supreme
The sacrifice and stand has been considered extreme
Their second name has come up as surrogate mother
I have come across dealings on rent for commodities and others
But this has been proved as blessings in disguise
Smile worth millions to many childless families
She has always been in read and subjected to criticism
It has remained worst part in the history against humanism
She has stood all the times in favor of sacrifice
Despite all the odds against and much to her surprise
To bless womb on rent is something like unparallel
You can prove outstanding with class and excel
But to give birth of child on no consideration
Is something like birth of new and dynamic relation?
When will the world realize and give more importance
A real place of honor with full recognition at once
Even if that has been considered in return for favor
I consider it worth mentioning with full honor

Good To Know
Good to know
It is good to know all
Acquaint nicely and pay a call
Accept or reject by simple choice
Never fool a person with false promises
World is full of different people
Some extend help and others create trouble
Yet we accept them as mere compulsion
There is full knowledge but we raise no question
It is equally good to love everybody
But that should not be the botheration for anybody
If they poke unnecessarily and interfere
They should be told frankly without fear
In doing so you may avoid the company of few
Pay scant respect and never accept their views
In normal dealing that may stand good
The difference or choice is clearly understood
We may be feeling uneasy with lot many of them
We have no means to tackle but receive unnecessary blame
Such people cause irritation in mind
We go all out to shut the door and wish never to find
Some are irrational and few may be really concerned
They may come to rescue when really cornered
Any assistance, that may be needed, is sincerely offered
It is nice to reciprocate in a manner even if opinion is differed
We will have to choose the people of lesser evils
Some may try to over impose and try to grill
Yet human mind is such that you can't avoid
We have to meet the challenge and fill the void
We may want to disregard someone but can't do
The situation may force us to reason and pass through
That may create irritation but serve the purpose
In that case we must know the human art and put in use

Thank You For The Promises
Thank you for the promises we make
I know I cant complain
I think I did all right
No failures are in sight
Only now and then
Id like to reminisce
Do you remember when
Even if were angels we cant ask
To wander through the past
The future is our goal
The night is black as coal
If I could pay the price
Id like to love you once
Id love to love you twice
Thanks
We cannot say enough
The road is sometimes rough
But we can get along
The going will get tough
But we wont be afraid
Of the promises we made
Thank you for the promises you keep
When I am fast asleep
To be where we belong
Is all that I can ask
We can do it in the shade
As long as I have you
And the promises we made
Thank you for the promises we break
If you made a clean mistake
Well thats what loves about
No need to stand and shout
The truth is in your eyes
The answer lies within
No need to criticize
Thanks
For the promises at hand
The abuse that we must stand
Is often heaven sent
They may not pay the rent
You never can be sure
When promises get bent
Thank you for the promises that live
This is all that I can give
Forever in my mind
To leave the past behind
And seal it with a kiss
Forever in my soul
I will remember this

To Welcome the New
To Welcome the new,
Release the old
To enter the future,
Let go the past
To take up new lives,
Give away those lived.
It sounds so practical,
It seems so sensible,
It should be so feasible
It should be easy.
It’s none of the above,
Yet in some ways
Tho’ it’s almighty hard,
We do it each of our days.
We just move forward.
We are made to change,
We are shaped for change,
We survive by change,
We live in a storm of change,
From the Maker’s hand.
Today was another change,
We stand on the edge of vast change,
And afraid or unafraid of great change,
We all walked forward.
Some may say we had no choice,
Others say even that is a choice,
But I say that by hand and voice,
We all make a difference.
We always can,
We always will.
It is what we do.
We are the changers, and the changed.
And we go forward.

A New Look At Sacrifice
We're moved by the Mercy of God, as we live life on this sod,
To be for God a Living Sacrifice, as Disciples of Jesus Christ;
We’re urged by Paul, into action, to be a light in a world of sin,
In light of God’s incredible Mercy, to live our life pure and holy.
We must commit to a change; transformed to praise His Name,
With God’s loving Mercy in view, we’re moved to live life anew,
Radical change to demonstrate, the power of Grace in our faith,
With change required in our heart, for real changes to truly start.
In light of God’s amazing Grace, we’re moved to an active faith,
Chosen by God’s sovereign Hand, in ways we can’t understand,
To stand against the world’s views, to offer instead Good News,
That can change our world at hand, as for God, we take a stand.
With a transformed heart and mind, a past is all we leave behind,
While we move for God ahead, a voice for Christ and Spirit lead.
Not here to spiritually pause, while ahead there’s a greater cause,
With The Good News to herald, as for God we change our world.
Becoming for God a strong voice, with other brethren we rejoice,
For Christ has made us fully clean, even from those sins unseen,
Mindful of what we used to be, now used by the God of Eternity,
As our own will and self is denied, Grace is spread, far and wide.

Long Live Africa
O great people of Africa, you rise
Wait for no sweet and hollow promises
Prefer to plough your own field
There will definitely be very good yield
Motherland wants more sacrifice
Not happy with unnecessary bloodshed and demises
Let them commit cruelty and spray bullets
Answer them with your own hands and ballots
Key and success is in your hand
Extend hand of friendship to them as friends
If no result comes out of it then also go forward
Now there is no scope of looking backward
Why African blood has turned yellow?
Why do they bear pain and allow
Why there is no positive result so far?
Because you have stretched too far
Let your children not suffer
Even if you may have divergent views to differ
Stand united and offer resistance
Peace is he only way out and bright chance
We shall extend cooperation
We can maintain relation
Yet it may be you who only will have to fight
Means may be wrong or right
See that no innocent is killed
See that unnecessary blood is not spilled
Freedom must be realized at any cost
Your will power and tough stand is must
Leave no stone unturned
Let peace chance not die and returned
Pick the threads from where you lost
Human misery must be avoided at any cost
Dream about peaceful nation
You may be able to establish good relation
Peace may not be far away
Stand firm; keep freedom torch burn on and stay

See what you like
There should never be "what" and "if"
We are only green leaf or leaves
Hear what we feel an act as not deaf
Feel to the pulse and say very brief
Love is to care
Love is to dare
Love is to be fare
Spread the fragrance in the air
Eyes may speak
But legs may feel weak
You may know it well
I have nothing more to tell
I loved it all
Waited for your sweet call
You were there in my dream
I always longed for you to swim
I lack the words
But look always forward
I feel warmth and her gentle touch
I never knew love will be as such
I missed her not for the beauty
But I considered it as my duty
Love demands sacrifice
Not words but with full promises
She may be far and away
But I see in her clear way
She guides me from the distance
What a luck and beautiful golden chance!
I may hold her whenever time comes
Offer all praises and heartily welcome
She may be for me and forever
I shall not doubt it any more
Not all people may be lucky
Whatever they want and get it easy
I must be thankful to her and almighty
Who have blessed me with such a fine beauty?

Heart To Heart

Heart to heart we'll hold together
Hand in hand we'll find a way
Oh, the storms of life may blind us
But with the loving vows that bind us
Heart to heart hand in hand we'll stay
Side by side forever and always
Day by day till our lives are done
This sweet love is ours to treasure
Far beyond all time and measure
Side by side day by day as one
The years connot take what's between you and me
We'll stand her together for the whole world to see
Heart to heart there'll be no other
Hand in hand for our love is true
Oh, the words that we have spoken
Will be a promise never broken
Heart to heart hand in hand with you

She was there
It was not going well
There was nothing more to think or tell
We did nothing except allowing axe to fall
It was disseverance to nature’s call
I passed through the same sand desert
The wing was slowing blowing with concert
It did touch my cheeks with no warmth
Some thoughts entered to remind me forth
I had no love for rising sun
It was about ugly or bad turn
I had to miss her for whole tenure
She may hunt me for complete future
It reminds me of gently spoken words
They were quite enough to look forward
Dream of a land where sky was generally to meet
The sand was making way for our resolute feet
Soon the cool breeze may evaporate
The day light will only be left to narrate
Soon the sand may turn its color
The rising sun may make it as hot floor
The total and unbearable it may become
No living being may be gladly welcome
It will be totally inhospitable and hostile
I was unperturbed and moved for while
I was moving with high hope
It was like walking on right rope
Very hazardous and challenging
I was carefully managing
I know the days may not last same for long
No one knew who was right or wrong
The dusty and hot wind may soon blow
We had resolved to part and go
The nature has proved cruel
It has added woes, agony and fuel
Igniting the wishes with no extinguishers
Where are now those all my good wishers?
I am not turning blind to the reality
I know I have blessings and full ability
I may find her somewhere here
I stand no chance to go anywhere
I shall come back again
With all flowers in hand to remain
With your close identity for ever
Shall it not stay with me forever?
I am very much sensitive
We both have remained very positive
Something has wrong as our misfortune
Else we were completely in harmony with tune
I give full credit to her understanding
She was in control and fully abiding
She never uttered a word in defiance
Though we had opinion with variance
I never back tracked and ran away
It was pulling me far and away
The cool breeze never appealed
All thoughts of desertion got repealed
I still hope it will meet with good end
It hoped against hope with her trend
It has kept alive the last hope of ray
It may lead me to happiest way

Stand Up
Love brings a change
I wanna take a chance
And let it grow
I trust my feelings
I wanna be with you
Wherever you go
Oh baby
Were more than friends
So precious it should never end
Oh baby
Cant help but win
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lot more love
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lotta good good love
Tonight is our turn
We have the opportunity
Dont be afraid
Want to make you happy
Satisfy the dreams inside our heads
Ooh daylight comes around so fast
I wanna make this evening last
Ooh baby, Ive given my best
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lotta love
Stand up, shout it out
What we need is a lot more love
Ooh baby, new dreams to share
And someone that will truly care
If youre lonely
I will always be there
Stand up, say it loud
What we need is a lot more love
Stand up, shout it out
