*What's The Reason To Live*

I am so sick of being alive,
Every minute is becoming hard to survive.
I feel like knocking myself out from this world,
I want to get rid of the pain being hurled.

When I throw a stone in the water,
It forms waves.
And my reflection,
Is defaced.

I think...
Whats the reason to live?
To cry,
To die,
Or to give.
To take,
To make,
Or to fake it all.
God, please dont make me fall.

I am perplexed by the flutters around me,
Every single moment, a part of me deceases.
I am so tired by the tornado in my life,
It never seems to go, it never ceases.

When I cry,
My bedsheet turns wet.
And it develops crinkles,
All over itself.

I think...
Whats the reason to live?
To cry,
To die,
Or to give.
To take,
To make,
Or to fake it all.
God, please dont make me fall.

*Speechless*

Time passes by and I think of you,
In my mind and heart there is always you,
You are the one who helps me through.

Your face, eyes, hands and smile;
All that makes me swoon.
You make me forget my tension for a while,
With the songs you croon.

The light that approaches from you,
Makes my day more bright.
You shine even more than the stars,
Drawing a romantic night.

Your voice I love to hear,
That has the power to make me consent.
Words that come from your mouth,
Have no means of vent.

When you hug or kiss me,
The feeling is beyond words.
Seems like I've been raised in the sky,
Where my hair dance and swirl.

I can't live without you,
As now you are a part of me,
But now when you've gone,
Its hard to find peace.

*Imagination is a Window*

My imagination is a window
I peek through it to see it all
It's a beautiful feeling
To let myself fall
And look everything with my own eyes
Cause with someone else's it's hard to realize.

I never let dust even touch it
Cause I dont want my window to be stained
It's a pleasure to have it clean
Or else the fears remain.
I want to look everything with savvy eyes
Cause with stains and spots it's hard to realize.

*You Are In My Heart*

How can I forget, that you were my best friend
When you're my love, you're in my heart
Its really hard to live without you
As you're my soul, my mortal and part.

How can I forget the love you gave me
When you're my fondness, you're in my heart
About the courage and hope you shared with me
As you're my soul, my mortal and part

How can I forget the time we spent together
When you're my love, you're in my heart
About the moments when we cried and laughed
As you're my soul, my mortal and part.

How can I forget the time you left me
When you're my fondness, you're in my heart
And how we cried during our seperation
As you're my soul, my mortal and part.

*Slipped Away*

Moments so special, so exquisite,
Filled with love and affection,
Hours that I've spent with you,
And attained your devotion.

I miss all those richness,
Now when you've gone,
The bond that held us together,
And made me strong.

Can't be complete without you,
I am truly missing your presence,
Your warm smile and looks,
That have no more influence.

Vows and oaths all that we made,
Have disappeared with your depart,
You've left them incomplete,
Without doing me any harm.

You've slipped away,
Leaving me behind,
Your divine presence,
No more on my side.

Those salty tears,That you've left me,
Are falling down my cheeks,
Without you there's a feeling of emptiness,
And will remain till eternity...

*Sky At Night*

When I feel forlorn and, lonely
There is nothing which could make me feel better.
My mind is captured by the night,
And makes me go out there.

Feelings are peculiar at night,
The spectacle is quite different.
A miracle takes place and transforms,
My whole world in a minute.

Seems like magic is thrown on the sky,
And everything appears shiny and dazzling.
I am enthralled with the marvels,
That makes the sky sparkling.

I start singing in reality,
Which seems like a dream.
My mind seems really focused,
As the night flashes its beams.

What a scenario it is!
To watch the sky at night,
That beholds the greatness of moon and stars,
Full of shiny light.

The wind that wafts my hair,
And creates serenity.
The darkness that may seem dull,
But has more luminosity.

I never thought that in my deepest darkest hour,
That sky at night would ease me,
But it has brought me huge comfort,
That I cant collect words to speak.

*Dad's Departure*

'No Dad, Dont go,
Dont leave me alone
I promise to be good
I swear to atone'

But, it seemed that he was determined
To make his move and depart
Leaving me behind
With a thousand daggers in my heart.
Yes,it is the truth,
so lamentable, so bad
He has gone forever
He is lying in his deathbed.

I can recall that atrocious night
I remember the zillion tears I shed
Its futile to try to forget it
It keeps on echoing inside my head:

Mom tried to console me
Provide me solace and strength
My little sister fainted on my knee
Unable to see his life end

'Wake up, Dad, dont go,
Remember, how we played together
The time, you told be bedtime stories
And promised to stay with me forever.'

In vain were my attempts
Not a word he uttered, not an inch he moved
All I saw was a blanched, lifeless body
My failure to draw response was proved.
Finally, the time came
The funeral prayer was read
I was burning with ardent emotion
My eyes, with salty tears, turned red.
Mom told me to go inside
But I kept yelling:'He is not dead.'
And then, severe headache started
Soon, my body began to bled.

Days passed on alone in my room
Brooding on the moments we spent with each other
I grew listless and dormant trying to reconcile myself
And joining the pieces of my life together.

Then one night, as I was asleep
I heard a stifled voice call out my name
It tried to speak, to talk to me
But, it seemed as if it was suffering from pain

'Amy', it said,'This your Dad.
I know, that you're not happy with my decease
But I had to go, it was God's will
You have to accept it, please.'
'My body is suffering, because you're dispirited
And I dont want to see you crying
I promise, I will always stay with you, inside your heart,
I swear that I am not lying.'
'Imagine as if I were walking with you
Standing with you wherever you are
Then, your pain and tears will be washed away
And your beauty can never be marred.'
'REMEMBER, I WILL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU.'

'Wait, Dad!' I called
But he vanished in the darkness
He left me quite perplexed
By his visit and his appearance.
I mused on what he said:

To imagine him walking with me
To stop crying
That he will always be inside my heart
And that he wasnt lying
Did he want to see me happy?
Did he want to heal my wounds?
Did he just say to imagine him with me?
And my happiness would continue?
And then it struck me!
That he hadnt died
But was taken away for a while
And that no matter how far we were
We would always stay reconciled.

From, that day on I envisaged
As if I was never alone
There was someone always with me
That he had never gone.
And now, I am happy
There are no wounds, no pain, no tears
There is just joy, pleasure and delight
I have chased away my fears!

*Shadow In My Dream*

I woke up from a dream,
A horrible dream, indeed,
I am in an an ugly frame of mind,
My heart no more breathes.
What was it?
What was it trying to say?
Was it a prodigy?
Or was I going insane.
Still, its reverberating in my mind:

I was standing alone,
No one was by my side,
It was all vague and indistinct,
But, I can recall how badly I cried.
Bleak winds were blowing,
Breaking the silence with all might,
Inaudible voice spoke from some corner,
I was brimming with fright.
I knew there was someone,
Someone, who wanted to talk to me,
Someone, I didnt know,
But I fervently desired to see.
I discerned a shadow from amongst the haze,
It moved in a motion, peculiar to me,
It passed me by swiftly enough,
That for a time I was unable to see.

I cried out: "Wait, who are you?
What do you want from me?"
But, no answer did I draw,
From the stranger of my plea.
Raring to end this confusion,
I ran after him impetuously,
However, I lost control of my senses,
As he escaped so swiftly.
Tired, I sat on the barren ground,
And tried to repose for a while,
But my own debilitated senses,
Seemed to beguile.
Just then, the shadow loomed before me,
I got frightened but he said:
"Dont worry, I am an angel of God who has come to tell you,
That He has decided for you the best."
"Your fears shall melt away,
And happiness shall be restored,
If you just have faith in Him,
No sadness will you ever inure."


He vanished, but left me bemused,
I pondered on what he said,
What was the meaning of this event,
I wanted to know to its depth.
Faith, I do have in Him,
Fears, well yes, I always have,
Sadness, is all that is in my life,
Happiness is something I never did possess.
Wait, did he offer me a solution,
To the problems I am facing?
That if I have pure faith in God,
I would be showered with blessings.
But then, I do believe in God,
Still, I bear hardships and pain,
Oh, this puzzled enigma,
Is driving me insane.
"Concentrate.", I said to myself,
Determined to figure it all out,
I wanted to know what he said,
What was it all about.
I thought, I meditated, I reflected over again,
And yes, then it struck me what it could have been.
To end my problems,
I had to believe in myself and Him,
Its only then that fear could be chased away,
And my life with felicity would brim.

And thats when I woke,
Confused, definitely I was,
But inside my heart,
I felt thats what it was all about.
I thanked God for the solution,
And prayed for His help,
I could already sense the happiness brought to me,
And my fears, they had started to melt.!

*Undeserved Pain*

As I was waiting outside a shop,
A girl came up to me,
Dilapidated clothes she wore,
And looked as if she wanted to be set free.

"Madam, please give me some money,
I have to feed my siblings,
Or else my step-mom would kill me,
And take away all my earnings."

Her face was brimming with tears,
Her hands bowed with respect,
Her eyes full of anticipation,
Her lips trembling as a matter of fact.

It seemed to touch the core of my heart
For, instantly, I handed over her some
I told her "Not to worry,
God will remove her from the slums."
And then I mulled over...

What's happening?
Why are children out on the streets?
Is it necessary to send them?
If the parents cant meet their needs?

They all have dreams, huge aspirations!
Is it their fault to be born like this?
They must want to live their life in their own way,
Life is given once, I am sure they dont want to miss.

Wipers, some hold,
Newspapers others,
They digest the excruciating pain
Just to feed their sisters or brothers.

And what about humanity?
Have all philanthropists demised?
Their seems to be no amelioration to their circumstances
Oh! I cant see them suffering, I wish I was blind.

The leaves falling from the trees
The weathered ties
I cant see their shattered future
I hope they rise.

hmmm, the word choice is mature there, but I'd like to see some kind of different idea there, because I can see you can write; now you've got to give it your own spin, your own style, make it yours. Kinda like painting; not every painter paints just the same, with the same strokes. So yu have to paint a different version. Everyone feels these feelings; you have to mix them with others, or split the poem and make it mean two things at once. Go crazy with ideas, because I think this poem's pretty good but can go a lot further :]

Wow, Shadow In My Dream was so alluring. As I read it, I wanted to read more,
And I can really relate to that poem. :]

As for Undeserved Pain, I love the emotion put into it, the different points of view, and the descriptive word choice; but I do agree with Jane in that you can go further. :>

*Teardrops Hitting the Ground*

The drooped roses retained in the crumbled vase
Torrent of wispy memories that have stained my heart
Atrocious bruises on my skin that have turned sore
With your departure, I have split apart.

I am yearning for you
I am crying for you
Can you see the teardrops hitting the ground
I am dying for you
I am sighing for you
Can you hear the unfathomable sound

My fragile beauty is impaired without you
I cant speak words, I am paralysed
The truth is, my soul has attenuated
Soon, I will be with you, I will demise

I am yearning for you
I am crying for you
Can you see the teardrops hitting the ground
I am dying for you
I am sighing for you
Can you hear the unfathomable sound

My ruin is precipitating, the tears have vaporized,
I am learning to die, I will be no more alive,
And now you wont see me gazing at the stars
I am relinquishing my life for you
And now you wont hear my cries by the window-side
I am coming through and through

I am yearning for you
I am crying for you
Can you see the teardrops hitting the ground
I am dying for you
I am sighing for you
Can you hear the unfathomable sound

*The Feeling*

An indescribable feeling,
An indelible stain,
I try to efface it from my heart,
But it lingers on igniting pain.

I shut my eyes,
I open them,
Everytime, I catch a glimpse of you.
Your impeccable personality,
Your immaculate strength,
Entangles me in a web of boon.

Nevertheless, you dont know that feeling:
That which I am nurturing inside,
That which I cannot hide,
That which showers on me deluge of bliss,
That which makes me want to kiss,
And that my dear is You.

One minute,
Two minutes,
Three minutes,
I am still waiting for you.

When will you come back?
Would you not?
Or was it only a vision of your approach...
But remember:
I was yours before,
Yours today,
And yours always.
Cause I have given my heart to you
I will always love you.
