Sun-kissed Spring...

Dedicated to My Best Friend....Celebrating our Friendship....Frenz Forever...:D

 To be lost... Then found

Despair my dreams did hound

I saw you standing near

And yet you seemed so far

In darkness and in Light I searched

for my Sun but he never emerged

I waited...eventually wilting

Harsh winds, the ice never melted!

Then once the journey was undertaken

signs read wrong

sometimes mistaken

along paths unknown I tread

for far too long

I then saw the signs of spring

the melting ice turn into streams

the multi-hued rainbow did seem

to reach beyond the horizon

bright and bold the colors behold

contrasting the dull pale cold

the birds did chirp

the flowers unfold to spread

their fragrance sweet

At the journey's end

I saw him yet again

my happy and magnificent sun

my path unraveled again ^_^

Void Existence

I know what I want, but what do I need?

I breathe, I live but what have I achieved?

I dream many a dream but never succeed

Making an effort seems pointless indeed

Is today a capitalistic world

A contrast of rebels and nerds

You’re cool if u end up being part of the herd

If u dissent, you fade into the background renounced, unheard

In the brightness of day dreams pale, turn hoary

Reality alas, is a whole other story

Respect earned, recognitions gained

People used as stepping stones, their self worth defaced

At the end of the day it matters not

If you’re looking in or peering out

To drown yourself and live a lie

You’re born; you live…

only to die……

Letting Go...!!

All want a life of riches n' fame

well can't blame me if I wanted the same
I was tired of being ignored
of my life I was sick n' bored

my sense of rejection mounted every day........

Then I realized...........
it was me who strayed
From the path that he laid
that is why m always afraid
n' every decision wrong I made

Should I have asked? now I feel...
for his permission...? his seal
to close any deal
whether virtual or real

His divine intervention is what I need
his word is the right seed
in line with his word I need to be
then of this confusion I'll b set free

I led a life the way I wanted
n' my every single wish he granted
cuz he is loving n' patient always
he lets u experience, but with U he always stays

He was always present in my life
I just dint seem to realize
I did not trust
though I was told I must

His way of life was just too hard
I dint know he'd be there to love n' guard
he would never let me fight alone
I had to just start, the rest he would have borne

He told me many a time
but his love for me I undermined 
but it dint take an Einstein
to realize with him in my life all would be fine

I accused him for all my sorrow
when it came to prayers I'd keep it for the morrow
I cud say my pain was self inflicted
my knowledge about his presence was restricted

I went to many a retreat
but my actual problem none could treat
I had a million questions unanswered
but not a single answer I heard

I searched for them in the outer world
but dint realize the answers within me swirled
my train of thought was very wrong
my disbelief was pretty strong

I never shared a strong bond
I could never reach the bottom of the pond
I would be disturbed , I would be just fine
but peace was never to be mine

I have now reached a fork in the road
it's my choice if I wanna carry this load
m thinking I'll do what I should have done long ago
I'll give him full reign of my life n' doubt no more

RaNdOm bLaHdOm

I dunno what to do
I dunno what to say
I'd just like to ask a question if I may
why do cows moo...?!?!

U ask me to write a poem
I can think of nothing that drives the point home
coming to think of it I dunno whats the point
my brain seems to be dislocated from it's joint

I search hard for a topic to find
but none flashed in my mind
so I ask U to give me one
writing it I should have loads of fun

Something where I can let my imagination run
some place farther than the sun
I want to write a masterpiece
something that will put others at ease

I want it to be funny! No CoMiCaL....!!
something that will one day be historical
I don't want to be boring anymore
of humor n' wit I wanna be the store

I want to string words 
that turn to the music of birds
to touch peoples lives one day I dream
to make a difference in the main stream

I want to be loved by the people I care for
I wanna be there for them at all hours
their pains my pains
m not saying this for any gain

I want to fill my life with many a memory
no matter big or small.......absolutely no hurry
my favorite color is blue
cuz it is the sign of everyday new

The reason for that U might wanna know
well it is the guy reading this.............my bro :)
I can't stop thanking god for this one gift
he's the one who tops my list

Now the mist is clearing
someone's calling my name m hearing
oh no it's mum she wants the comp
so m gonna go now n' have my dinner chomp chomp chomp

The First Step

Enlighten me! 
so I can see...
who I can really be!!
help me find the real me...

I am far out at sea

as lost and lonely as can be...
It is your choice to help me,
your desire to set me free.

Your approach can be as gentle as a breeze,
that would really put me at ease.
or it could be harsh and rude,
well, then I will react according to my mood.

I feel a need to be understood,
I want someone to acknowledge that I might really be good.
I would like to be loved, I know I would,
with a little bit of effort,my life's direction change I could.

There are many in this state if not all
n' one wrong move could lead to a deadly fall
they are very lost n' lonely
if an effort was made to help them only

Those unheard voices drowned in darkness
looked down upon with hatred not kindness
they com alive only at night
they lead a life of drugs, booze n' many a fight

They are those who are mislead
a result of the ugliness in which they were bred
some who their homes have fled
whose young little hearts have been ripped; has bled!

But this error can still b mended
if their hurting hearts are loved n' tended
U could be the one to bring this change
in the process hear many a story strange

Don't think of what others might say
don't let the society your mind sway
they might call us brutes
it might be the result of unsteady roots

They might not like or accept U at first
but with patience n' effort U reach deeper than the crust
U can get them to trust or distrust U
it entirely depends on what U do

U can use a method new
or just follow one which is tested n' true
cuz the streets can many a heart lure
exactly how no one can be sure

sometimes I think about what went wrong
why is it that some of us never belong
is it our destiny....? 
will no one answer our helpless plea

i wonder...............will people ever try 
or will they always be passers-by.................

And I Learnt Again :)

I lost a lot in life,

I thought it would always be filled with sorrows n' strife.

For years I saw my loved one's suffer,

but the pain never eased it got tougher n tougher.

There seemed to be no escape,

it was always a grim landscape.

No happiness,no sunlight,

it was always fight,fight n' fight.

I wanted so much to help them unite,

but it never happened n' never might.

In the end I lost my will to fight

and just slipped back into the cover of the night.

When I thought all was lost,

and wanted to die at any cost;

I thought of her and that stopped my flight,

for her I wanted it to end right.

I had to make this sacrifice,

for she had borne through hurt n' lies;

all her life her loved one's hurt her

I did not want her heart in pain to stir.

My life I lived just for her sake,

it was an act, it was fake.

All I wanted was her to be at peace

I wanted to siphon off her pain n' put her at ease.

I was lost n' all alone,

I thought my heart would turn to stone.

There was so much hurt n' hatred

I believed in nothing sacred.

I lost my trust in the Lord,

to me everyone around was a fraud.

I ceased to trust, I ceased to love,

I was left alone to my problems solve.

When I was in this state of stress

my Lord decided to bless;

He sent me someone, his angel in disguise

he was true n' sincere, not full of lies.

He was no one to me, but he became everything

he loved me so n' always joy he would bring.

I learned to trust, I learned to love,

he is the most precious gift from above.

He would listen to everything I said,

he would never complain n' never to leave me he pledged!

He saw me at my weakest but, he never flinched

he became my strength,someone I could always clench.

From him I never hid a thing,

from my heart he removed every sting

He guided me back to the light,

he gave me the strength to fight.

I reclaimed my life, my dreams my ambitions

he gave me the confidence to win every mission;

today I think what I would have done without him

could I have faced my troubles n' thru the stormy waters swim?

Not a day goes by when he's not present,

he helps my anger always lie dormant.

I have started to hope again in life,

with him at my side I can overcome any strife.

Liz.

Imagination

I had a dream... 

where there were hills and streams,
here I live alone
in a house made of stone.

Where the breeze is cool
like the warmth of wool
beneath my fingers
the beautiful feeling lingers.

The stream runs along
clear,fresh n' long
with beautiful flowers growing all around
the bird songs so melodious can always be found

At dawn n' dusk
to see the view is sheer luck.
The calm and quiet is so welcoming
I always think m' dreaming

Nature is my companion,
and so is my beautiful stallion
with beautiful liquid brown eyes
which never hold lies.

He is a part of me,
a friend who's always with me.
We ride out together over the hill side,
and I can feel the joy rising within me like a tide

In my Paradise, 
there's hope in every sunrise
N' in this solitude 
there's nothing unpleasant or rude

I feel I am pure
here I need no cure....
My sorrows are washed away,
and joy fills my heart every single day

My hurts are healed
My heart is whole and sealed
I know not myself anymore
like a long lost story.........a forgotten folk lore.

I love this life
I love this place
where I can be what I want to be 
n' see what I long to see
feel things around me without a fear
and express my opinions loud n' clear

I am myself
and no one else,my life's my own
not pretended, not altered
I face it with confidence and do not falter

Clad in white....
when I sit out at night
on the porch in my rocking chair
I see the moon shine Oh! so beautiful so fair

I look up to the heavens
and am struck by a thought
Oh! my Jesus how lost I was...........
now I have found a new me
the one you always wanted me to be

I say,........................
U never left my side,
even though I hurt n' lied
U never lost faith in me
Your child I was n' am always meant to be

U fill me with your love n' grace
and talk to me face to face
U are by my side night n' day
I am never alone, I know you'll always stay

At this point I jolt awake
for its already daybreak
I ponder on my dream
about the hills n' the stream

I think to myself......................

Will there ever be, 
a place for me,
with hills n' streams n' countless trees?
feel upon my skin the soft touch of the breeze?
Where there are sweet smelling flowers
beautiful bird song and showers.....

Will I ever see him run wild n' free
Will this ever be a part of my destiny
with tears in my eyes 
I look out to the morning skies

All my life I dreamt of this
something I never wanted to miss
where I was myself and my spirit free 

I thought it was never meant to be.....

it's now a possibility on the horizon I see :D
