like destiny,
it changes.
Feeling alone and scared
and amid with air.
Once, I saw a men.
He was standing beside my mime.
He was looking at me,
I was scared.
Should I run?
But I can't.
And my friends,
they were there
as I penetrate through the pain.
They couldn't understand,
but I knew he was there.
Fire is one who has flames,
greatness of use,
not to be scared.

It deepens
It seeps into
the hollow windows
of my soul
Filling me up
like a vast and
empty void
Holding me hostage
A prisoner of Death
Forever Stuck
In This Black
and Empty
Hole

to the wintered face of the thistle path,
to the fingers of the old man's glove
as he waves his memory homeward

you of course know
describing it is beyond my capability
as a matter of fact it's inarguable
But I'm writing to let you know
How incredibly unimaginable
You make things look beautiful
A little more wonderful
And a little much incredible
You are the only reason
I loved once and only once
Like never before,never again.

This poem is for the ones who risk their lives
So that friends and family and strangers can live their lives in peace at home
For the ones who have hope, and privilege to win
and have the wounds and scars, mentally and physically to prove it

I came to you with my wings ripped against my will like a wingless bird locked in a golden cage,
I long to fly free above the skies,
beyond the stars and moon,
but i came to you to mend my wound,
For the pain of worldly deception and contempt had left me bleeding,
that i cry every night, silently,
weeping deep inside, loudly,

flowing like a waterfall
Advanced in thoughts;
adored by all
Her sojourn to her families spread
Is like stable pearls and a moving thread

Years come and pass by
But the New Year has its own emotions
It’s filled with resolutions
Its evening has the only mission
To bid farewell to the year
And rock the New Year!
Dance, DJs and Drinks
Fun, Frolic and Food
Makes it the most happening and dear
Wishing all at the tick of twelve
And enjoying the fireworks high above
Rawness in the style of celebrating
The New Year all over the world
Has the strength of unity in that moment
Leaves behind memories to cherish
The new dawn is like an infant
It’s a bundle of joy and sorrows
With new errands that grows
Quitting drinking and smoking becomes common
Pending debts are all done
Family time is the top preference
Taming the bulge is a new hindrance
Struggling harder to stay planned
Making our life grand
New Years are a dreamland

Silence in rivers
Leaves are still
Nothing is bright
Voices are shrill
Delight is lost
Wickedness , a thrill
Broken mirrors of the past
Awful present is to fill
Psychic gets the ability
Irony high as the hill
Scrimmage with the respect
Poor lives possess a drill
In this chaotic world
Winner are those who kill

They looked like they had been oblivious for quite too long and they'd just come back to reality! They knew deep down that time was rapidly going by but they couldn't diverge from their doleful souls..
They had escaped from an era where time was limitless and now that they've wasted so much, they run around trying to do something with the knowledge they didn't know they had...
It's like some of them were in their dungeons and had to escape and evacuate their dwellings because they finally heard of this creation called living and it was free, finally..
They could now see the rain differently, they now see the rain as something that could make anything and anyone grow.
All of them were once a bunch of dropouts drenched in their sorrows and lost dreams, but the illusion had been worn out and finally they were existing in a world my kind wasn't the only kind.

the sun so bright that it could warm the coldest souls
you hear a faint sound like a bell ringing oh so quietly
your eyes begin to wander like a fish being released back to sea
all it took was those few seconds for your whole world to turn upside down
from laughter to cries for help
as you begin to fly across the pavement you see your bestfriends lifeless body being crushed
like a bug under a shoe
the light starts to fade away
your body Becomes so weak you can't breathe
then finally you are set free.

This one favors the fiction of rain
a short history of abandoned damp -
mossy needs met and reciprocated
beneath an imagined moon
and recovered starlight.
The dark planes of an unanswered wish
shift to dust
