In YOU i find.

THERE IT IS WHERE LOVE PREVAILS,
IN THE HEARTS OF THOSE HOMES DEPRIVED,
AMONG THOSE SADDEN SMILES,
AND YET HOPE IN THOSE TWINKLING EYES.

THERE IT IS WHERE LOVE PREVAILS,
AMIDST THE PRAYERS OF THOSE WHO HAVE LOST,
LOST THEIR LOVE.THEIR FAMILY , FRIENDS,
AND YET PRAY WITH REVERENCE
BELIEVING IN THE POWER OF THE HOLY GHOST.

YES THERE IT IS AND NOT IN THE LIVING,
NOT IN THE PLEASURES OF MAN.
IT IS IN THE HEARTS OF ALL WHO CHOOSE,
TO LOVE SELFLESSLY AND NOT EXPECT IN
RETURN.

NO BITTERNESS TO SHOW,
NO REVENGE, NOR HATE,
NOR FEELING OF BEING NOT-LOVED,
ALL THAT THEY HAVE IS THE
STRENGTH OF THE ALMIGHTY
AND THE COURAGE OF A BROKEN HEART.

Those few words, writtten as a child

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
THAT I PLAYED IN YOUR ARMS
AND KISSED YOUR COARSE CHEEKS WITH MY TENDER LIPS.

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
THAT YOU TOOK ME ALONG,
TO THE MOST RESPLENDENT PLACES
AND TURNED THE WORST DAYS INTO FUN AND FROLIC.

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
YOU SAT UP HOT, SUNNY NOONS
TAKING DELIGHT IN WATCHING ME PLAY.

ALL SEEMS LIKE JUST YESTERDAY.....


SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
THAT I WAS KISSED ON MY FOREHEAD
"GOODNIGHT".

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
I JIVED WITH YOU
HOURS ON END.

SEEMS LIKE TWAS JUST YESTERDAY...
BUT ITS BEEN MORE THAN A YEAR
AND IVE COME A LONG WAY,

AND AS I BROOD OVER NOT HAVING YOU AROUND....
I MISS YOU ON MY CRAPPIEST, LOUSIEST DAYS,

WANTING TO BE KISSED.....
" GOODNIGHT" AS I LAY,

SADDENING IT IS WITHOUT YOU TO
DANCE AND SWAY,

MISS YOUR PRESENCE.......
EACH MOMENT
OF EVERY DAY..............

WITHIN!!

WHAT CROSSES MY MIND,
WHAT STAYS BEHIND,
SEEPS THROUGH,
LIKE THE DEEP OF THE NIGHT.

WHAT CROSSES MY MIND,
WHAT STAYS BEHIND,
IS FOR ME TO CHOOSE....
WHILE THE ANSWER LIES
WITHIN THE COL....

By My Side

Don't be by my side when i cry,
lest i should break down when your not around.
Don't be by side when I'm weak.
lest i should feel miserable when you aren't close.
Don't be by my side when i am alone,
lest i should feel lonely when you leave.
Don't be by my side when I'm troubled,
lest i should be so timid and not fight back.
Don't be by my side when I'm in pain,
lest i should depend on you to console.
Don't be by my side when I'm angry and mad,
lest i should take it all out on you.

just be by my side when
I'm happy and smiling.
when i feel like to
dance and sing.
that's when i need you the most,
coz joy my heart cant contain.

above all
you don't by my side when
I'm old,sick and ailing
lest you you stop me from leaving and being free.

"Random"

There's a riot in my head.
Riot of thoughts, abstract ideas,
that do not find their way.
All chaos around, even when I lay
calm and still on my bed.
It's a rush of emotions deep within me.
Those bizarre random words flowing in my head
do I write them?
do I let them be?
do I wait upon them to disappear and vanish ?
And as these questions arise.
I realise I'm even more bewildered, flummoxed than before.
