Borders And Shading

Take a knife and carve it in
Want to see your faults
As a part of your pretty skin
Everyone has a tragedy
I want you to wear yours in pain
Oblivion can no longer shade you
Tattered tissue as a reminder
Bleak silence
Errors stigmatized in you
A weak worn out friend
There's nothing left for me
Again and again
Your face reminds me of a bleak future
Despite the absence of hope
I give you this sacrifice
You're so far behind
Be my hero
Drift away
Ave yourself
Don't end up zero
I'll look the other way
I'll crawl into your vault
Pass snakes and old rotten thoughts
Leaving a hotbed of virulence
Your world inside slowly redesigned
I deny any reminisce of us
I'm on a new mission
I find myself in the future
a trace of the past cannot be found

A Bleak Future Lies Ahead

a bleak future lies ahead
as i lay thinking on my bed
the thoughts that run through my mind
is a two friends who will find
there is more to life
so put down the knife
and feel the love thats given to you
as you are one of the few
who need to know you are unique
so stop thinking of the bleak
future that lies ahead

Deny Someone An Education. They Will Find It Somewhere Else.

Deny someone an education.
They will find it somewhere else.
Don't respond, if you do as you always do.
You ask for tons of money just so I can pursue.

Deny someone an eduction.
They will find it somewhere else.
Money can't be earned to support.
With violence they resort.

Deny someone an eduction
They will find it somewhere else.
A criminal mind intertwined
Cheating the system they see as just fine.

Deny someone an eduction.
They will find it somewhere else.
Starving to preserve a future so bleak
Capitalizing on those of the weak

Deny someone an eduction
They will find it somewhere else
Be careful what you teach.
For now all can reach.

The Few Chore

The future is here
I'll say it again
The future is here
Two thousand ten
Flying cars, time-warps
Food comes in pill-form
Robots n' teleports
Progress is still-born

The future came and went
I guess thats the past
The future is coming
I bet it won't last
The past is tomorrow
Or will be next week
Time's a mother****er
The future is bleak.

Completely shaken

I saw her completely shaken
Mentally unstable and bodily broken
As if hell was let loose on her
Whole world was for her to bother

No doubt it was cruel joke
Her future was in complete smoke
She had absolutely no idea of cruel blow
It was painful and had come in very slow

First no one informed her about tragedy
That her friend was in grave condition and unsteady
His pulses were sinking very fast
At any moment he will be about to last

She had inkling about impeding danger
She had lot more to tell with anger
Why fate had played such game?
Why she was only picked by the name?

Soon she will be left alone?
He will be already away and gone
What will be her future without shield?
What will be she doing in those green field?

She had wore white cloth as mark of grieving
None of the stories are meant for believing?
Now she has to face rough weather and stand?
Who will take her care and understand?

Thousands of thoughts crossed her mind
She was no where near and in position to find
The fate had deceived her and acted unkind
Now future stood bleak for darkness only behind

I shall overcome all shocks
She asserted boldly while soaked
This is not the time to shed tears
All pain and agony is there to bear

Let cruel hands not reach to me
Let me brace up and again feel free
The sky has limit so I shall stand again
He is no more but his efforts will not go in vain

Future to Future

in the future moments will
come when one person says
to another, “That was great! ”

we never know what
the future holds in store
for us-in it’s infinite
wisdom-but surely you and I
know of it’s impending arrival

some believe the future
holds great times ahead,
some believe in a bleak
fate and still others believe
unborn moments hold
a catastrophic end

me, I like to think that
maybe, just maybe, it
will all happen at the same
instance-I mean some things
will be great, some bleak,
some beginnings and some endings

“great” things will only
happen in the future, because
of now, and that’s tough enough
to decipher-so I will plead, now,
and leave the future to the future

Heartless Brothers

Who is this Future everyone talks about?
They have been talking about him since I was born
Good things all the time

I hope the world see you for who you are
I am yet to meet you
And tell you about the Past
Your heartless brother who have no mercy

Looking at him reminds me of sorrow
From the Past born of pain I looked to you for comfort
You never took time to give me your ear
Yet you destroyed so many of my people everyday

You kept taking my beloved people
All gone!
In the hopes of one day living their dreams
Dreams based on nothing but hope

Future give back the souls you stole!
Earth spit up the children you swallowed!
I heard God weeping, tears rolling down causing Tsunamis
Emitting words too heavy for my ears to hear
Crying for the children of Africa

He created the world, we created continents
He created land we created borders
All cause of pleasing Future, the invisible bum
Now we fight each other for the 'better Future'

The unseen goddess who care not for mortals
What I know now is I will meet you Future
But I won't have time to tell you what you done
Cause the day I meet you the Son of Man
Will be by my side to take me home

Where there is no lies about you
Where there is no tomorrow
Without tomorrow there is no you Future
Without tomorrow there is no you Past
Only me and the present

No Future, Too Much Past

When you have no future
You have to live in the past
A member of this human race
Who'll pass the finish line last.

The future, things to come
Nothing much except pain
The past, Times gone by
Nothing at all, just plenty of rain.

So disaster looms on every corner
Just waiting to leap out at you
You could take a different path
But it finds you whatever you do.
So the future and the past Are just one and the same
The first and second halves of a stupid bloody game
Impossible to win, Destined to lose
I should just give in and sink into the ooze.

And the future draws to a close
While the past increases in size
No future, too much past
And more loneliness, sadness and lies.

Besides

When I look inside the lines
When I look beside the black and white
You put my world in color
You’ve painted me a picture of my life
With laughs, and love, and you
When I look inside your eyes
I feel your pain
I feel your love
I see my future with you

When I look beyond the sea
When I look inside the dunes
You make me fly, high above the water
You’ve opened up a passage of my life
With tears, and pain, and you
When I look inside the sea
I see how deep you are
I see the waves of your past
I see my future with you

When I look up in the skies
When I see through the clouds
I soar beyond all belief into the heavens and above
You’ve given me faith and hope for all the world
When I look to the stars
I see your faith
I see your dreams
I see my future with you

When I look at you
When I see your soul
We become one
You’ve given my life the colors, the passage, and the faith and hope I need
When I look to you
I have no more fears
I have no more troubles
And I see my future with you for now and forever

Love Is The Only Light

Then the lights go down on me
When the truth is hard to see
When hope is fading out of site
Love is the only light
When my world becomes unreal
And the pain is all I feel
When I can't find the love I knew
It's sad but true
We find ourselves crying cos we can't make it last
We hope for the future then we reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light
When I find no reasons why
And it's time to say goodbye
When there's nothing left to say or do
It's sad, sad but true
We find ourselves crying cos we can't make it last
We hope for the future then we reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light
Burn my fingers
Feel the pain
Kiss the flame
And start again
And again
And again
And again
And again
And again
We find ourselves crying cos we can't make it last
We hope for the future then we reach for the past
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light
Love is the only light
When you find yourself alone tonight
Please believe me
Love is the only light

Gaganomics

The era of a bleak peace,
The era of a bleak care,
The era of a bleak unity,
And like a dream lover and a dream river!
But your 'Gaganomics' are noted all around us today.

Wonderful-time!
In the new future;
Beautiful act! !
But, she told ne her name;
And like the real things of life!
However, some things take minutes and others take years to fulfil them.
