People walk away
When people walk away from you
Take it granted you were not true
They expected higher than the height
But your were proved wrong and were below weight
Every has right to choose and clear the way
No one may like simply to go away
It has to be done on equal footing
There is no use to go for night shooting
When it comes to the strengthening the relation
So many things surface with strong equations
Person may think of his interest first
Then may think of others at the last
It is applicable in all the respects
Every individual may carefully watch his act
It will be careful approach not to sever the link
Enough of thoughts may be considered to save the ships
Why do we consider our selves as intelligent?
Who would love to live in past rather than present?
It is advisable not to give much of credence
The steps are to be taken at once
Only success can be the mile stone
Either you choose to go along or alone
You will be successful only when there is result
Else you have to face the criticism with insult
Some of the idioms are well suited for learning lessons
But it carries different meanings with lots of reasons
It is how you face and take the corrective measure
Life then would be easy to live with in the future

An honest always suffer
Why do honest people always suffer?
What is reason behind it that they differ?
Why can’t they accept good wishes and offers?
Are they really on right path and true thinkers?
It is an age old tradition that comes on surface
Lots of criticism and comments we have to face
People choose material gain and involve in mad race
They get frustration and disillusion in any case
They will find appropriate place and honor
The present set back can be considered as minor
It may take some times to get established
All their efforts may stand good and not finished
The world may realize its utility
There is scope for its continuity
No use pursuing in its futility
It may be sub standard in quality
All the sufferings and insult is there for honest
It doesn’t pay him desired result even if it best
It may be crucial time or can be considered as test
He will not keep quite and pursue it without rest
His work may not be realized or fall on deaf ears
It may need hard efforts for many more years
It may develop fatigue and body may wear out
He still may opt and go in for it through out
They have nothing to loose at the end
He may not distinguish between foes and friends
He is always there for right cause with reasons
He has same feeling with energy in all the seasons
Let there be unhealthy competition or unreasonable demand
The right people will pursue it till the end
It can’t make any impact on their activities
They may still live with elegance and niceties
You need few people to fall in line with
There lie bare facts with the truth
Anybody can choose for or against
It is really worth to go in and invest
You may suffer initially but ultimately gain
It may prove successful and not go in vain
The tiring efforts are bound to succeed
It may remain within limit and not exceed
The flowers in garden may boom in spring
The birds may build the nest and rest the wings
It is nice place to seek refuge and rest
You may then have beautiful ideas to put on test
The environment and nature also comes to the rescue
We must pay enough attention which is in fact over due
When they are generous all the way in nature
Why can’t we be same for our bright future?

The Path Of Time
Whether of present or past
Or future if you please
The time that you portray
Moves only for yourself
Some choose to live in the past
Lost hopes and dreams they share
But time only last
Until they release the burden they bear
Some choose to live in the present
And behold the sights of each day
A balance of decisions for 10 second frames
And everything always seems fair
Some people look towards the future
To see long term effects unfold
However long it takes to get there
They keep persisting towards their goal
I chose to live in the present
Ignore the past and future presence
And live life like I will not see the next day
And still not have to care
But if I provide an example
For past, present, or future
My path is still my own
And moves only for myself

Regrets
I have done things wrong,
I will never forget.
But I cannot live,
A life of regret.
I am not a bad person.
But I have done bad things.
When a guitar gets broken,
You can change it's strings.
Life can be a song.
You can choose to dance.
Or you can sit in a corner.
And not take a chance.
It can be an adventure.
It can just be mundane.
You can dress it all up.
Or just leave it plain.
You can live for the moment.
You can live in the past.
You can live for tomorrow.
Or all you've amassed.
You can live for it's gifts.
You can live for it's treasures.
You can live for it's pain.
Or live for it's pleasures.
You can live it for Jesus.
Or live it for you.
You can live it for everyone.
Or just for a few.
And when it all,
Comes to an end.
Will you feel it's been true?
Or just been pretend.
Will you feel like you gave it,
Gave it your best.
Or did just what you had to.
Like all of the rest.
Did you make a difference?
Or did you blend in.
Did you look forward to where you were going?
Or stuck where you'd been?
Did you take life by the horns?
Or did it take you?
When things got real tough?
Just what did you do?
Did you sit in a corner?
Did you mope, did you cry?
Did you simply give up?
Did part of you die?
Did you fight the good fight?
Did you give it your best?
Did you go through your journey?
And complete your quest.
So live for the moment.
And never forget.
Don't let life shape you.
By what you regret.

A love and affection
Love and affection has tremendous strength
Meet the target on same wave length
So much joy to lead or to be led
To achieve the goal and never feel sad
Millions have learnt and changed course
Any layman can learn and change concourse
Only one good impetus and see the result
Deep sorrow and downfall with only one insult
Love is not confined to physical relation
It is humanly behavior with good indication
It can alter the destiny of a person
It is backed by many examples and reasons
It has always influenced the mankind
It shown the way even to the blind
No one has dared to defy the true love
They have always gained when drove back
Some one may take vow to prove the worth
The talent is available and there is no dearth
Still you need a driving force to back the initiative
Then the whole thrust is becoming subjective
What is force behind such powerful ambition?
Is it own skill, hidden urge or inhibition?
There is true intention for achieving something
This is only required and is considered a great thing
A person is tempted or led to believe
At home mother takes care to relieve
His complete burden and comes to rescue
He has been provided whatever is expected to review
The friends and relatives too provide some momentum
His ambitions are fuelled and allowed to mushroom
He has now open space to give realization to dream
He need not bother now for any fear or to scream
His personal life too carries enough of weight
It is greatly influenced by whether to go wrong or right
He need not run unnecessarily after and enter fight
He should complete domination by keeping them in sight
When you are engulfed with lots of problems?
You are not at all carried away by them
The goal is very much in mind with full of enthusiasm
He is never afraid of failure, sarcastic or criticism
Even if there is little hesitation to loose aim or sight
You may probably loose the interest with no delight
It will the be fruitless or aimless mission
You will have guilty conscience for admission
There has to be some main force behind to achieve
You must have capability and powerful urge to believe
This all will lead to some consolation or honorable achievement
It will satisfy you with some of memorable and pride moments

Why do I seek more
Why do I seek more when it is not sure?
Why I go for all out result when it is totally unclear?
What does this speak of when comes to real term?
It speaks of sick mind affected by deadly germ
I sought after all means to reach the end
I did not distinguished between foes and friends
It was clear to me that relation should not come in the way
I have drawn the lines and far as possible kept away
It does not speak well of an individual
When one is intentionally playing dual
It is very dangerous and later on resented
The tact is not appreciated and consented
It hardly maters and attains any importance
If it varies in essence and in substance
For silly things it may be called as mad steps
For bigger things it may be termed as slaps on face
It is human tendency to seek in abundance
It has remained weakness and clear stance
The thrust for such thing is apparently visible
So many try to pretend but practice it as invisible way
It is good on individual’s part to struggle very hard
By doing so he has to always remain alert and on the guard
Nothing may be had in easy and simple manner
Though it may come later or sooner
So one must know the capability and its worth
It should be borne in mind and looked forth
The efforts should be made when something is very sure
Only to remain desirous of anything is not sure way to cure
We can draw our opinion by analyzing the result
We may face reversals much to our discomfort and insult
It is expected in every field and one should be totally ready
The success chance are evenly predicted and remains steady
The casual approach sometimes may prove very deadly
Since it is performed with half heart it will be felt badly
It is neither win or loss but worthless enterprise
It will be aborted in advance much to our surprise
It is nice feeling when success rate is high
The immense happiness makes us to fly
The life missions seems to have attained
The thrust is also in order and properly maintained
If one takes it as his normal function
There won’t be any regret for any malfunction
He will be ready for any kind of eventuality
He may make it sure not to employ any kind of duality

Live
Clear out your mind
Look to your past and see what you can find
Stole soul afraid
Of the prophets perfect picture falls away
Is this the life that we choose to live
Or is this the life that has been giving
Now is the time to see what my life should be
What is mine!?
We live in Shangri La now!
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now
We live in!

It's a timeless rage
For many people praying to be saved
Truth is so strong
It needs lights to guide it so it can carry on
I've seen blood on my hands
Am I dead or is this where it begins
I feel the shame
For my friend who put a bullet in his brain!
We live in Shangri La now!
We live in!
We live in!
We live in Shangri La now
We live in!
We live in!
I've got
You've got
We've got
Something to die for

Last night I had a dream
Last night i had a dream
a dream about a future
a future that i had buried
deep within
A dream that made me wonder
how deep is that burial place
within me
Last night i had a dream
a dream about a past
a past that my memory
refuses to name.
Dug up by another name from
that very past
Last night i had a dream
a dream about the present
a present that i choose to
live in oblivion off.
a present with hurt, betrayal
pain and sadness
A present that however hard
i run away from shackles
me to my past and my future
chains, which i am unable to
break free from
which tie me down and make me who and what i am
Last night i had a dream
do i wish to wake up and
face reality.
are not the dream and the reality
one and the same.
Last night i had a dream
a dream or was i awake
finally.

Anybody can.....
Nobody can save you from committing blunder
Rain may also not stop even after thunder
Steps once taken forward can’t be taken back
Nothing can be considered when you are given sack
Some of the things can’t be retrieved once committed
Nothing can be added later on if once it is omitted
Relation can’t be improved upon if once broken
If you maintain it throughout it is sign of good token
Love to live with whatever you have and let others also live
Don’t think otherwise and impose your thoughts even if you believe
It will generate negative effect and bound to suffer
We hold different identity and certainly will differ
You may have tremendous energy to follow correctly with perception
You may infuse new lease of life right from the inception
What is most desired from a person is not lack of his vision?
But his ability to steer the course without any further division
This is how we accept and understand the life philosophy
It may not alter the stated position of any country or geography
It may, on the other hand, strengthen the belief and make the way
For better understanding among the people and have clear say
We do many things unknowingly out of frustration
It has nothing to do with good or bad presentation
Merely it speaks of unstable mind of sick person
Whole chain of problem starts without any reason
It may go unnoticed till you are publicly condemned
Whole blame is passed on you and simply fined
It becomes matter of great regret when brought to light
There may be no use at all even if you offer good fight
Well have your own way and clear say too
Pass the hurdle with clear vision and see through
It will have wide implications when seen the intention
You may need no more steps for prevention

Past memory
How long person can live with past memory
To feel sad whole day and night with so much sorry
Adding tension, causing concern and worry
This is something one must avoid to carry
I come across many people with strong attachment
They cry whole day and pass pessimistic statements
It is nothing but creation of confused mind
No one can really go forward for solution to find
Smile is such thing and can be had for no cost
It is missing in most of the cases with real face lost
They find end of world with slight setback
Relation is soared with development of cracks
The face bears great sense of satisfaction
The smile is very good parameter for such action
It is reflected as very good sign
One must accept the fate and silently resign
The is loosing its flavor when detached from plant
No one can restore its charm the way it is wanted
Once broken from its link with no more hope
Everything goes wrong and it flops
The face remains swollen and complete barren
This does not take place or happen all of sudden
It has its roots from the emancipation of mistrust
Then there is left little scope for any kind of trust
Only true friends may have little time to listen to your woes
The sad tale may go unheeded or unheard even if it flows
It looses its relevance if you are not sure of what is in mind?
No one may give credence to your tale even if you are so kind
You must make choice for past and present
You can’t remain attached to past and remain physically absent
That state is not acceptable in its any form
You need complete change with attitudinal reform

Love is Disease
I ran through a poem called” Love is disease”
I thought I would die without it and cease
How can life be without it even for single second?
May result in inhumanly life without sacred bond
I have successfully dialed many numbers
Not gained much but enrolled many members
No one objected any time that who was sender?
It was taken in good spirit and never considered as offender
It takes lots of time to know a person
You can’t change as per season
So many aspects are taken into consideration
Daily problems for persuasions with lots of explanation
Who can submit willingly for known hazards?
We are meant to look always forward
Sometimes self interest becomes secondary
As destiny and goals are considered necessary
Love is uniform even if you don’t know the language
Neither has it had something to do with the age
Nor to curb the wish and confine to the cage
It is generated within and finally finds place on page
You may write the verses in her praise
Even you may make desperate bid and chase
You are prepared to undergo any trials or face
The consequences which may arise out of race
I would not mention the cheap word
It is used by wrong chatters or the cowards
They may just use it for sensational talk
Forget at home and remember when go for walk
Love is indispensable and considered as tonic
It has valid reasons with some logic
Man is human animal and needs some companion
Something new comes out of strong bond and union

Choose to Live Life
IF is more 'is' today than ever.
There is no quiz about it now.
And doubts once allowed are gone.
Believe it.
And become doubt free.
It is there in your face.
With nothing else to replace it.
Wishing it would go away...
Fades with a reality that stays,
Unerased!
With traces of pain...
To frame delusions.
Believe it.
And become doubt free.
Choose to live your life.
Yesterday,
Those easy daydreams came.
Sweetened with weekend escapades.
To leave behind a week,
Of those scheduled committments.
You sought to meet and keep.
Now a seriousness appears.
To reminisce those things done...
As dropping teardrops come to some.
Choose to live your life.
IF is more 'is' today than ever.
There is no quiz about it now.
And doubts once allowed are gone.
One must choose to live life!
No longer can anyone afford to sacrifice time...
To appease the whims of others.
Especially if they are in debate...
Discussing the value of your fate.
Choose to live life...
With a happiness sought without 'things'.
Or a happiness someone promises to bring.
Choose to live life!
Your life!

No Ifs and Buts
No ifs and buts
Only how best efforts you put
Success may come of its own
You will be up the ladder and rightly known
Had it been only excuse and reason?
Nobody would have succeeded as person
As it required tremendous zeal with thrust
All efforts are needed and must
Even though life is considered uncertain
We must have calm posture to maintain
There may be setbacks and failures
But we will have to remain firm for sure
You aim for only those things
Which have values in life for something?
It may not help if needlessly thought over
Life will be ruined simply for effective cover
We all know about capability
This is one of the cruel realities
Nothing comes in easy way
We have to force and take it away
If things were that easy
We would have remained very choosey
It may come only with hard approach
Life is easy and critical as such
I would rate chances very high
If we have strong wings to fly
We must cover only the distance
That can bring us back safe at once
Love to lead the life with contentment
Then it won’t have any room for resentment
There will be full joy and happiness
Same will be seen and reflected on the face

In Past Years
Go back to your some of the best events in past years
Think of the past incidences where you had not landed ears
What would have happened if you had acted wise at that time?
The situation might have turned different sometimes
What is tempting you to go blind?
Why do you not see it reasonable and find?
That it had been told you to be careful
As precondition to emerge as successful
Not only this, you might have got rebuff
As you had failed to prove it as bluff
You had no reason to feel ashamed
As it was thought over and planned
Past definitely gives us some clue
To face bravely and come out of blue
Some of things might have been true
But short cut was needed to go through
Wealthy and successful people can afford to analyze
They have enough time and sources to summarize
They can evaluate, put aside or simply categorize
The work is done with efficient ways without reason to antagonize
Even though the cloak can not be reversed
Yet the time lost can be recovered and fully assessed
The loop holes can be filled with accurate input
Many sideways can be eliminated or simply cut
It is possible now for you to come with bold strategy
It may prove full proof system against any bogey
It will stand fast against any onslaught
As changes are positively thought over and brought
Sit in night to some reserved position
Look back with positive thoughts for future composition
Nothing can go wrong if thought over in advance
The success may elude you not even once

I don't want to spend a lifetime knowing that I've chosen wrong
And it's so bittersweet these decisions I must make

A Personal Choice
I have met some wonderful people and I have met some who are far from nice
Suppose the type of person that you or I are with us is a personal choice
We can be arrogant and judgemental that is if we do wish to be
Or we can be loving and caring at least that's how it seems to me
There isn't any excuse for racism or for putting another person down
Though no shortage of racists and xenophobics since they do live in every town
But no shortage as well of good people I'm lucky I meet them every day
People who are generous and kindhearted and of others ill never do say
'Tis easy for to be judgemental and judge not and thou shalt not be judged seems so true
What goes around always does come around we receive from life what is our due
Treat others as you'd like them to treat you and you will be doing okay
Those who do wrong to other people to karma the price have to pay
With those who say we can choose the type of person that we are I cannot say I disagree
If I choose for to disrespect somebody that person will not respect me.

Nothing to Complain
She has nothing to complain
Neither against any particular man
Nor any one near in relation or woman
Even if she wants but what she can!
She has wept lonely in corner
She was not prepared to call her self former
He had deserted her merely on suspicion
She pleaded long but he had taken the decision
No one can compel any one to pull on
When trust has been lost and gone
You can’t restore the mirror in original position
To see the broken images with different composition
Love has same dimension and magnitude
One can never be happy with solitary attitude
How can one break away for silly reasons?
When you are bond to err as normal person
It is not easy to spend rest of the life as female
The worries may make your face dull and pale
You loose the strength to face it courageously
All are ready to pounce upon you dangerously
I have lost no hopes with only one angle
I have child to look after from the result of triangle
It has proved strong bond for future
He may look back and return home for sure
It generally happens in long relation
It gives no advance indication
One can’t expect sudden rupture
As it is in no way a part of culture
Love with trust and last
As life may be moving very fast
Who knows about the uncertainties?
When we are faced with tough task and liabilities

A run away
You ran away from me’
It was only honey bee
You were so scared
You were afraid and not dared
Why did you flee the scene?
You were never desperately seen?
You used to be bold and brave
Why did you run for cover to save?
Was it your defeated tendency?
Will you carry on with same frequency?
It has generated a great concern
It is to be proved wrong in turn
I can’t remain with disloyal
My partner should be brave and royal
You were on running spree
How can I assure self and feel free?
There was no such danger
You had no fever or anger
Neither were you suffering from fever
Nor you had feeling of hunger
It was quite amusing to witness
I couldn’t find your trace
You tried very hard to save the face
It was only peculiar case
You couldn’t reason it out
You were down in my eyes and I shut
Never to look at you and offer yes
For you it may naturally be bad phase
You may offer many reasons
It proved you as coward person
You did not last in very good season
The out come was not good and unforeseen
I had caught a hand of reliable friend
You proved otherwise at the end
It spoke of naked fact
You were not reliable in fact
A person can’t be relied upon
Who is unable to face it in open?
What can be ultimate fate and result?
It is pure humiliation and insult

Aradhana...Meditation
We pray the God for well being
Ask from heart a little favor to bring
Happiness in home and in life
No trouble whatsoever even if to walk on edge of knife
"Aradhna" is some kind of meditation or constant worshipping
Dedicated efforts to attain expertise with blessings
The result is forthcoming but after long years
Person shines with his achievements unbelievable to the ears
I have come across many friends who live respectably
Speak nothing about their specialty and lead honorably
They have made their course precisely set
They have no more desires form this world to get
Yet my dear "Aradhna"* is different from others
She has preferred isolation and so much liked by her
She wants no praise but like very much to stay indoors
For her life is like struggle and not less than wars
I can understand the sufferings she might have undergone
May be her past not allowing to forget the by gone
Time comes when person prefers to shut down all communication
Not severing contacts altogether but live barely on thin relation
I love that theory and try to close in to her heart
She is down to earth and stays calm with natural art
There is no show in her approach but only wisdom
Such a quality is seen rarely and witnessed seldom
I don't know why she preferred to be at my door
I am not that intelligent to pick her feeling and look poor
She keeps on telling about her being alone in crowd
I welcome her feeling but don't appreciate it loud
She has suffered at cruel hands and wants no more
I only admire her skill and honestly adore
She may not like more acquaintance or closeness
But yes she has appetite for good things to face
She is best suited to her name
She is above everything and free from blame
What else one gentle lady can expect as prize?
Name, fame, or both much to her surprise

Freedom
Freedom is something
we take at times for granted,
it is only when we have lost it
do we see how precious it is.
Walking down the street
feeling free as can be,
but suppose we could not do that.
How would we feel?
If our voice was choked
by oppression.
What then?
Never take for granted
the things we enjoy the most.
The freedom to live
the way we choose,
for one day in the future
we could lose it
unless we are careful
in the things we do.
