What is true love?
True love is,
When you are called upon
To make a sacrifice.
You must do it feeling no pain.

Be slow and steady
You look behind you,
You look before you,
You look within you,
While you are on the move.
Maybe speed is slow.
Equally the fall is light.

Familiarity brings liking
A cock loved with his commune hens.
Into yard, he started loving other hens.
Into jungle, other fowls too are appealing.
Once used to, you love any breed of woman.

Man cannot be chaste.
One bull can manage ten cows.
One cow cannot stand ten bulls.
A woman is at ease to be chaste.
To be so is man’s distaste

Let the known know me
Let me be known
To them to whom I am known.
To them are my writings.
Being known to unknown
Is the mass publicity,
A short lived one.
I want to flutter
Near my neighbours,
Not to fly so high
For mountain’s birds.

Train your skills
Be proud, rightly so,
That you are an artisan,
An intellectual or an inventor.
You get respect.
Being rich brings in jealousy.
Being powerful generates enmity.

Pleasure & Pain
You always said you loved me
Though my minds right now not sure
Youve always been there for me
Though my heart never feels secure
Why cant you take a further step
To let me know you really care
Cuz now Im feeling driven
Into a love thats not right there
[chorus:]
Why do you make me feel this way
Feeling betrayed, feeling pushed away
Why do you make me feel so bad
Feeling so hurt, feeling so sad
What have I done to make you turn
Im feeling so lost, Im feeling so burned
If you really cared youd make a change
So I could feel the pleasure and not the pain
After all Ive said
You still have it set in your head
That you dont really care about me
Why cant you seem to believe
That Im the only one for you
I gave all my love to you
And after all Ive done for you
You never say that you love me
The way that I love you
[chorus]
I feel all the pain, hurt so bad, feel so sad
It hurts so bad, it hurts so bad
I just cant take no more baby
Girl make a change
So I can feel the pleasure and not the pain
[chorus]

Know My Truth
How strange it is, as the one I have loved the most
Thinks, that I hate her most
Your sympathy I never wanted
Only wanted your love forever, in my life.
My pain is always considered as fake
That is my fate.
The pain of my heart and my love is so true
Nobody can match it.
It is good that you miss me now, my love was so true for you
Always my love was true, for you was my love.
I never wanted to be just your friend, you always knew that
Just because we cannot be together, that is why you mention our love as false.
You called our relationship, to be a complete failure
However, now I actually do not love you
Since, you doubted my love.
Love you I did and sexually I did want to share my feelings with you
Yes, in love I did have sexual feelings for you
That, does not make me evil, anyways
I am glad that you misunderstood me, since it showed me the reality.
(This poem was actually written in 2011 but I never published it.)

What if it's just a feeling?
What if it's just a feeling and nothing more
just a feeling that's never penetrated to the core
and what shall i do if my love is superficial
how shall I act if i find it's not official
what? i simply lie to myself? what if its not real?
what if i don't love her for who she is like a fool
what if my heart uses and deceives me like a tool
I hope this is more than i feel
i want this love to be pure and true
i want it to be the kind where i spend my life with you
but is it so?
is my love strong and full or will it go
away
one day
and leave me hollow
that's a lot to swallow
but my love, o my dear, hat if its a lie?
i don't wish to lie, I believe i love you
i really do
i could write on the whole of the sky
but would that make my love true?
how can i prove that i love you?
what if its just a feeling
hopefully not...hopefully not just a feeling...... i fear

What Is Love?
Is love a feeling that everyone
encounters? Is love a feeling
which someone can handle? Is
love a reaction that everyone
must balance? Is love a reaction
which someone need perhaps? Is
love lust or someone's imbalance?
Is love pain or everyone's shame?
Is love abusive? I think not; It
should not lead anyone to harbor
doubt. Love will be what you
make it; And it won't collapse.
Love is really your point of view
perhaps. Is love enhanced or is
love a tender advance? Is it
love at all? If you have to ask,
explain or demand, I think not;
True love is joy, hope, peace,
and faith in man. So love will
always be what you make it I see;
or perhaps what it should be. A
beautiful reaction between two
people happily; I hope you all see.

How many can a man love?
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one but two
Yes, that’s nothing new
It’s called the midnight blues
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, not two but three
Well I suppose if the third is for free
Then so is his love meant to be!
If the third gives better head in bed
Then nothing more can be said.
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, not two, not three but four
Yes if that man is hard-core
Will the four not find him a bore?
Phew! His magic wand must be bruised and sore
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, not two, not three, not four but five
If he is poor, he needs them rich so he can survive
Or sadly he may need five only to feel sexually alive
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, two, three, four, five but six
Yes if his mates have done him a fix
Then he will do it just for the kick
Just imagine if all six, he give underneath licks
The contents alone of his mouth will make him sick
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, two, three, four, five, six but seven
Many say to a man that is like heaven
A blessing, only the chosen are given
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, two, three, four, five, six, seven but eight
I suppose that is a question for debate
Wouldn’t all the eight end up with a feeling of hate?
Each day, how does he decide whom to date?
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight but nine
Perhaps if he has had nine bottles of wine
Then he may think he is finer than fine
Loaded with bounteous cash is his sign
To get them queuing for him in an orderly line
Is it true?
Can a man love
Not one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine but ten
Well if he is not scared of producing an ocean of children
Then he may as well love eleven
And make a real football team of women and men

Honesty enriches mind
What is honesty?
Get not, hold not,
What is not due.
Cheat not, lie not,
For any profit.
Accept the mistakes.
Regret the failures.
Repent the wrongs.
Repeat not the wrong.
Then you are honest.
Honesty earns acceptance,
That only we crave.
Wealth dispels not loneliness,

Burnt Offerings
In one last breath
You'll feel this damned old soul
You'll see the things I see
For all these years
Of pain and sacrifice
You'll know the pain I know
Of all these things
I offer unto you
Infernal wisdom waits
Now unleashed
Like the flames of hate
My sacrifice is made
Every note
And every word you hear
Comes from deep within
An angry soul
That twists and turns inside
Pondering this life
Crimson eyes
Staring through your lies
Awakes the inner rage
Take my knife
Make my sacrifice
You┬╣re my burnt offering
Spill your blood
Offer me good omen
Make the sacrifice

Eyes replace the skin.
Once, women stripped at night to earn their bread.
Now women strip in light to earn their butter.
Men have shifted their sex from skin to eyes.
Blue films meet what once the brothel stood for.

My Dream Come True Just Turned Out To Be A Dream
Had Many Dreams
of Course you and I.
But my Dream Come True,
Just turned out to be a dream.
Badly did I want it to come true..
But it is really true,
True that
My Dream Come True,
Just turned out to be a dream.
We Dreamt of it Each Night,
Thought of it Each Day
My Dream Come True,
Just turned out to be a dream.
We Bickered With it all day
Through out our ways
But we still remained,
Remained unaware that
The Dream Come True,
Will just turn out to be a Dream.
We imagined us there
But we truly couldn't bear,
Bare that
Our Dream Come True,
Will just turned out to be a dream.
Up the Mountains,
Did we wish to go...
To the land of streams and snow
Did we wish to go…
But we didn't ever know,
Know that,
We'd sacrifice a soul…
Give it up as a whole
I wished we hadn't done that
So did all…
But we never ever knew
That the pass to enter the mounts,
Was to sacrifice a soul....
Mountains and rivulets,
Kept beckoning us…
The days faded away...
And at last
Towards them we made our Sway!
We called ourselves lucky,
Without knowing we weren't.
We Beamed with Pride
Over flowed with Joy.
But we stilled remained Unaware
That we'd sacrifice a soul.
And
Our Dream Come True,
Will just turn out to be a dream.
UP the divine land,
We were to be.
But couldn't we ever think,
Think one of us would reach Far Above
And Above to the Heaven.
We didn't imagine
She'd fly without us
FLY SO HIGH
High to the Heaven.
To make our dream come true
Just turn out to become a dream
And just a Dream
Mourning her removal from the Earth
Praying for her Placement in the Heaven,
We slid down the Mountains…
Being one less
One less than how many arrived
Our Dream Come true
JUST Turned out to be a DREAM!
It is Really True,
True That
Our Dream Come True,
Just turned out to be a dream.
A Dream Unforgettable…

Twenty Zero One
2001 - where do I belong
I got my mind but I dont know where my head has gone
2001 - baby where you been
Its pornographic, internet, traffic on my screen
2001 - shes just a maniac
Its not for me but my baby really needs a crack
2001 - dont want the sex to stop
I took a pill now its killing me to keep it up
2001 - I know whats goin on
You wanna take my soul and change it for another one
2001 - those liquid crystal eyes, they really suit you honey
Let me get them in your size
2001 - by 2032 you can be me, and with a little luck
I can be you
2001 - let me bless you son
Help you believe with my semi-automatic gun

Love's Complexity
I once caught a scent of sadness blowing in the air
which smelled of love's conceit not of fragrance fair.
It affected me rather badly so that I couldn't hide
the feeling of pain in my heart there deep inside.
Like a time when something lasting is hard to keep
the harvest of love between hearts two may not reap.
True love is a call to sacrifice all for one's beloved
a challenge and offering that can't be safely recovered.
If one follows a particular course without any real distraction
one reaches the goal or end that ensures complete satisfaction.
There's a great similarity where the path of love is concerned
that any falling out by either one and both lovers get burned.
As love has many aspects or sides to it that are very hard to comprehend
a strong disagreement or misunderstanding may cause the loss of a friend.
When true friendship is involved though and mutual interest is maintained
there always tends to be a reconciliation and the bond of love is sustained.
This gives credit to the saying that 'true love will always find a way'
the dying embers of love in the lovers heart's will re ignite some day.
As love is the feeling of oneness between people of the heart and mind
we should know that to give and receive in love is of a universal kind.

One Love, Alot Of Pain
In life, there’s one love but a lot of pain
Love heals your wounds when the pain is too much
Love is nowhere, if the pain is everywhere.
Love is an angel while the pain is a devil
Love gives comfort when the pain is hurtful
Love is nowhere, if the pain is everywhere.
Love is the light while the pain is the darkness
Love is a rainbow while the pain is a thunder
Love is nowhere, if the pain is everywhere.
Love will be strong when the pain is weak
Love is true but the pain is false
Love is nowhere, if the pain is everywhere.
Love fair while the pain is un-fair
Love is surely possible when the pain is impossible
Love is nowhere, if the pain is everywhere.
About the prayer
Pray to a stone with faith.
You are healed.
Pray to God with greed.
You are nowhere.
Cure lies in prayer.
Addressee is immaterial.
In prayer, your system
Is cleansed, relaxed and energized.
Prayer is absence of wandering.

Solo sex is man’s fantasy
Which part of a woman is not sexy
For a man who is manly crazy?
To him, her clothes and ornaments too.
His touch of her is not a must.
Her image in his brain will do.
A god send gift to human’s concept.
He indulges in sex with every woman,
Without a rape, without a consent,
Keeping them inside his head
And deriving pleasure from his fantasy.

A Breathe of Fresh Air
I'm a deep thinker
And I'm just trying to live my life
Who am I?
The answer is, I'm not quite sure
I have that feeling
The feeling in your stomache
The feeling behind your ribs
That feeling that just can't let you be
The pain
Well can I even call it that
It's not quite pain
It's absence of pain
It's just the feeling
The feeling that's always present
I just want it to go away
Please just go away
I want to breathe freely
I want a breath of fresh air that isn't soiled
Soiled by the feeling
The feeling of pain
Or is it the absence of pain
