Up and Down
One, two, three
Three, two and one
Up and down
Up and down
Nothing is known
Till you own
Your mistakes and folly
Then you will enjoy wholly
Who are we as an individual?
Take it normal and causal
There shall be only acceptance
No refusal even at once
So down you fall
But respond to positive call
Go up again
With no more pain

Causal
Take it causal
Life is causal
Your whole existence is causal
Sunrise sunset causal
Governing bounding causal
Rolling wheel is causal
Pin of axle shaft also causal
Your life is causal
Your whole existence is causal.

Missing puzzle
They talk of the puzzle that has the missing piece,
But none mention the piece with the missing puzzle,
It's hard when there is nowhere to turn for release,
And searches for acceptance lead to refusal,
It pains me to hear puzzles constantly complain,
For the piece with a missing puzzle cries in vain,
They try to fit in places that they never can,
And end up with a life like that of a cursed man,
They can pretend they are another puzzle piece,
And then try forcing themselves into a puzzle,
But it will hurt them until they crave for release,
And acknowledge their prospective host's refusal,
They will surely be doomed to tiresomely roam,
In a vain search for a place that they can call home,
Till they declare themselves a puzzle of their own,
And then learn how to be content being alone.

Pain!
? You say that you have felt pain?
You have no idea what pain is.
Pain is hearing, 'She doesn't
like you anymore.' WHAT?
How can so much pain be caused by
someone who is so small,
so young,
so far?
Yet I tell you, I have felt pain,
pain at hearing your name
mentioned by some ignorant
person, someone who doesn't
know what you have put me
through. Pain? Yes, that is pain.
Pain is knowing that you will
never be mine, though I once would have been
wholly yours. Yours, though
you may never know it. That
also is pain- not being able to
say what I want you to hear.
This and more have you put me
through. This, and also the
torture of hearing from your
own lips- lips that I have longed
for, lips that I have loved in
my own way- that you liked
another guy.? No, I will not
call him a man, for he is not,
or else cannot be, for he loves
you. What? Now you wish to
leave him? And for me, again?
No, I am sorry, love, I cannot
and will not endure your
tortured love again. I have
felt the pain once, and I no
longer have any desire to feel
your pain again. Enjoy it, love.
Pain. Embrace it, rather than me,
for me you will not have, and now
pain is all you have?

Let Me Fall
Let me fall,
Let me rise,
As the sunsets,
My tears are full of emotions I can not control,
One moment I will be crying next I be happy as a bird,
What is this emotions,
Why is that I cry,
Do I cry for the pain I feel,
Or should I just think more and more negative or positive thoughts that runs through my head,
Just let me fall,
Let me make my mistakes,
Let me learn form it,
Let me rise on my own,
I can do this by releasing my sorrows or depression,
It’s the thought that counts.

Little heart
Keep hearts clean and open
No short cuts to reopen
Spray the fragrance with smile
Continue with vigor for meanwhile
It must receive no tears
Sans pain and no more fears
No more shocks to bear
Beats always normal to be heard by ears
Only part of the body and so sensitive
Love to see and think always positive
No one should be show ever disrespect
Nobility and divinity reflected in all the acts
Never say unpleasant words
Hurt someone and retreat as cowards
Heart may not show its displeasure
But feel strangulated for sure
Let good shine be adored on face
Make to feel and proud of human race
Even of something goes wrong in case
Leave it then and there without making chase
Feel pulses of richness that heart has
It has its own arena and base
It may widen influence on all
Respond to love and politely call

To Enjoy Life
Our life has many windows of joy,
The joke is serious and to enjoy.
Our existence is special and fully exposed
To other elements, so as to enjoy.
The living individual that aspires to Job,
Is the very sentence of our writing to enjoy.
How does the sprightliness of a lifestyle
Turn into something not to enjoy.
Really merry people are mostly proof of laughter
Being the source of help always to enjoy.
There is a safe place for all,
Everywhere you must even think to enjoy.

Rose Of Martyrdom
Is there anyone here
for whom it's wholly clear
which way he wants to stay
come to light, come on: appear.
All the searchers around
look what they have found:hard life
still blind they don't hear, the sound
Rose of martyrdom a mighty storm against boredom
no deadlock each step
a thorn to the rose of martyrdom.
At the end of the game
you've been failing insane
you feel it was not real
tears have just one name.
There's no cure,
no cure for death don't wanna live to regret.
It makes no sense after all
nobody can catch the fall
no rain will wash up the pain
'till we get the call.

Love is hard
What happens when you have to say goodbye
do everything just go back to normal
well i can't do because im already intangled
in the mist of the love i feel for you
is it normal
to fall for a guy who already has one week
one week left to seem me
untill he leaves for college
to go his separate ways
is it normal
for me to cry at his graduation
for me to break down
when i only began to know him
is it normal
for me to be jealous of the thought of future girls
when i know that we cant be together anymore
love is the best and worst thing tha can ever happen
love is hard
is it normal

Let me remove the obstacles for you to climb..
When we think that we are at the top of the hill,
Those who are at the tip of the mountain say,
'Hi, you are at the bottom of us.'
Then we realize that we have a long way to go!
Not an easy task to climb these terrains,
Where all obstacles pave our way.
Not an unaccomplished act to leave in vain,
When thousands made their hay.
When focus the top, the pain may vanish,
we may enjoy the journey, not that smooth.
When we imagine the victory,
we may enjoy the pain for its glory.
Do not give up half way for the fear of falling down,
as the falling is normal on earth's gravity.
Even it is for a few moments of our life,
Let us strive to achieve what little that we can.

The Power Beyond What Is Normal (2 Cor.4: ; 7) ...
The Power Beyond What Is Normal
Humans Can Hardly Explain
But The Power Beyond What Is Normal
Can Pull You Out of Pain
The Power Beyond What Is Normal
Can Really Make A Change
It Can Lift You From The Dumps
Up Into Sun Rays!
It Can Take An Aching Heart
In The Deep Of The Night
Heal It ‘Til It Glows
Like Candlelight
Whether Its Your Lowest Moments
Or The Coldest, Lonely Hours
The Power Beyond What Is Normal
Is A High Power!
It Is The Powers That Be
It Is The Power That Is
It Beats All Other Powers
… and It’s HIS!
It Is The Power For The Better
It Is The Power That Lasts Forever
To Really Turn It On
Just Pull Love – Lever
Call On It In A Hurry
In An Emergency
When It Comes To You
You Will Finally See
It Is The Power Of Holy Spirit
And It’s Awesome To Be Near It
But When It Fills Your Soul
… Boy, It’s Joy Is Bold!
It’s Like An Apple Covered In Carmel (1 Pet.2: 3)
I Can’t Resist The Power Beyond Normal
It’s The Sweetest Power Treat (Ps.19: 7-10)
I’ll Ever Eat …
It’s The Strongest Power Trip, I’ll Take
While I’m Awake …
It’s Not A Gimmick Fake
It Feels So Great!
To Those Who Don’t Know
I Know This May Sound Strange
But Those Who Do Know of It
… Know Its Range …
It’s Infinite – Limitless
In Euphoric Release
The Power Beyond What Is Normal
Brings You Peace …
The Power Beyond What Is Normal
May Be A Mystery
But It’s A Gift From GOD
… That’s Right, It’s Free!
The Power Beyond What Is Normal
Humans Can Hardly Explain
But The Power Beyond What Is Normal
Can Break All Chains …

Peer Pressure, Identity, and Acceptance
Just not fitting in
Where's those people?
Is there anyone like me?
Am I supposed to be like them?
Just not fitting in
I want acceptance they don't want me
They want me to compromise
This isn't who I am
Who am I anyways?
It's only temporary.... right?
I can't lose myself cause I'm....well I'm me
I need acceptance they're like a distant dream
They're staring right through me
They're speaking to me out of sympathy
They see through my act
They see.... no they couldn't
Who are they anyways?
I guess I'll call them..... well, they're friends
They're all I got
I crave acceptance
The pangs of loneliness
No it's not that
Not quite
As much as I crave acceptance
I think deep down
I don't want to have to change
I think deep down
If I could speculate about myself
Deep down I want to be me
But who.... who am I? I can't remember or maybe....
Maybe there's nothing to remember
Just fitting in
Has changed me
Where can I get real acceptance
Would anyone just care about me even knowing that I was me?
I can't even love me, I don't want to feed me, I don't want to help me
Why would they?
Is there anyone who'd just want me, even if they knew it was me?
Acceptance
It's not just a commodity, it's a necessity
So I found acceptance
It took my life but I'd gladly give it up again
It's better that I no longer live
Well in the my old definition of life
This.... this is life
It's acceptance
I found acceptance with the one I deserved it from the least
Someone I never did anything for
One of my greatest enemies
That's why this acceptance
This forgiveness
This love
Changed me
From the inside
Out
I think I found part of me, I must show my friends
Or that's what I thought
Because the cruel reality of the world is that it
Denies us that one thing that we need to survive that one thing we crave
Acceptance
When I told them He loved me
I lost what little friends I did have
But I have more than I've had
Because I have
Acceptance

Normal
Pain is in proportion to livingness.
The more alive you are,
the more it hurts
to live.
This is normal.
The young hurt most
but mend quickest.
New flesh heals
where old flesh withers.
Young mind feels
pain piercing and deep;
often so deep that of itself it heals;
a child that cries itself to sleep,
cries and forgets in eternal singing.
This too is normal.
Until clinging
enters the heart,
laying up the treasure
of its tears
to be disinterred in later years,
repented at unwanted leisure.
And this is normal.
The prophet said:
“I will give you life more abundant.”
His shadow added:
“And more abundant pain to go with it.”
Quite normal.
Amidst so much normality
the pain is what shines through,
making a mere formality
of what you think you want to do.
Grasping out and feeling pain.
Letting go and letting heal again.
See where the yellow banner is unfurled:
“All is for the Norm
in this most normal of all possible worlds.”

A Rainbow Of Pain
a rainbow of pain is normal for me
i can hide it well so no one can see
a rainbow of pain can be dark and so lonley
it has griped me tight it knows it does own me
a rainbow of pain flows thru blood
the cuts are so deep the streets will flood
a rainbow of pain keeps me alive
without this rainbow i will not survive
we all have this rainbow but not all can use it
a rainbow of pain can cause you to lose it
a rainbow of pain is normal for me
the pain runs to deep theres no hope for me

Some day
Sometimes when
I get up in the morning
I find things are not normal
On that day
For no rhyme or reason
I feel unhappy
Unnecessarily crappy
Someday I am full of joy
Wanting to enjoy
Till the end of the day
All of a sudden feel unwell
On the very next day
I feel tired and exhausted
Rest is the call for the day
One of the days
All is well
But mind is not the same
Whatever I do
Doesn’t go right on that day
One’s biorhythm they say
Changes every day
I shall find the reason
That causes all this
Some day

Enjoy, be comfortable and celebrate each moment
Each moment is fleeting
No moment stays on
Irrespective of your having
Enjoyed it or otherwise
Been in comfort with it or otherwise or
Celebrated it or otherwise
Each moment is fleeting
It is your normal desire
To hold on to each moment
And to consciously enjoy it
Allowing the next moment to come in
At your will
You will enjoy, be comfortable and celebrate
Each moment of yours by
Non-emotionally acting upon
Issues of the moment
With your best of skills so that
You are out of the issues effectively
And relieved of the same once and for all
You will enjoy, be comfortable and celebrate
Each moment of yours by
Helping others in your possible ways
So that they can help themselves
And by sharing your resources
To the possible extent with those less resourceful
So that they can build up their own resources
And become self-reliant
You will enjoy, be comfortable and celebrate
Each moment of yours by
Involving yourselves in activities
That will create and pave way
For newer strengths in you
To broaden your resource-base
So that you will await new challenges of time
With a better vigour and wider knowledge
You will enjoy, be comfortable and celebrate
Each moment of yours by
Being creative, innovative and by
Exploring your inner potential
In artful and soul soothing initiatives
So that you are always alive
To the demands of the situation
This will help you relieved of
The reminiscences of the painful past
And the dreams of the non-existent future
You will enjoy, be comfortable and celebrate
Each moment of yours by
Seeking divine guidance and assistance
In taking positive decisions
When being confronted with
So far unknown challenges
Enjoy, be comfortable and celebrate each moment
Which is just fleeting and will soon not be yours

Standard between the equals
A speaker and a listener, poor
In language, might make mistakes in their talks.
Mistakes are not known to them as mistakes.
Both enjoy the talk without any itch.
A raw woman appeals to a raw man.
Two children and two adults play chess.
Some sing to friends and some in a concert.
Standard is according to the circle.

Share Our Happiness
Call me not by name
I really feel shame
Not that they call me by real
But by bad name with sarcastic drill
I am pulled sometimes among friends
That too with laugh and endless jokes
I will be their simple target
But I will not mind and let
It gives me immense joy
If someone teases me to enjoy
It may be sometimes childhood habits
Made known public with shout 'Hurrah' and greet
I may laugh it out and not respond
They will put my name and second
That may keep me at the center
Cut the jokes and smile as soon as I enter
It is not done intentionally
As we have shared and enjoyed it really
It has come from long association
Nice bond to enjoy with sound relation
It builds real hatred or lovely alliance
Some of the boys really don't take chance
They come and go peacefully at once
We used to stay back, fight and enjoy the presence
It is difficult to keep them away
As we have no other way
To spend enough time
They are the only one around sometimes
I shall consider it as golden
As so many children are not seen together even
It is the only place where we share our happiness
Reach home happily with smile on the face

FORGIVE, DON'T FORGET, BABE...by talile ali
LIFE IS WAY FUNNY
AND WE ALL TRY TO DO
SOMETHINGS THAT WE SHOULDN'T
BUT WE ARE BEING TRUE
TO THE INNER NATURE
TO THAT RESTLESS CALL
WE ALL DO RESPOND TO
THE THINGS THAT MAKE US FALL
WE MAKE MISTAKES
WE SCREW THINGS UP
WE HURT SOME FEELINGS
WE'RE ALL MESSED UP
LOOKING FOR SOMETHING
THAT WE CAN'T FIND
BECAUSE WE TRIED TO
LIVE OUR DREAM THE WRONG TIME
TIMING IS EVERYTHING
WHEN WE START TO SHINE
IF WE START TO EARLY
WE GET LEFT BEHIND
WE NEED TO THINK ABOUT
THE THINGS WE DO
BECAUSE WHEN WE MESS UP
IT SOMETIMES HURTS MORE THAN YOU
AND ITS SO HARD
BUT WE GOT TO
FORGIVE
NOT FORGET, BABE
BECAUSE LIFE
IS WAY SHORT
TO BE LIVING
A FIB, BABE
