When everything is taken under consideration,

The world is a federation,

There was always some motivation,

When everything seemed to be a celebration,

In the heavens where they loll
Watching over chosen soul
Must they bathe in celestial glow
And ever long for what they trow
A chance to fall to life mundane
To plunge into the terra domain
Wherein lies the beauty envied
Far too long in refuse tarried

I’m calling out, I’m crying out

But no one is giving me solace

No one is giving me redemption

No one is giving me a second look

Truth

Since time’s distant dawn 
Men have told lies 
Calling it truth 
Facts patronized. 
But truth doth not jest 
It is what it is 
It’s the brim on a hat, 
It’s a bride’s wedding dress. 
  
Revered in our lives 
Honest men we respect 
For uttering truths 
We’ve all come to expect. 
Yet lies now made vogue 
Scatter truth like the birds 
No handshakes to bond 
Or shore up men’s words. 
  
Do well to respect 
The integrity of sleuth 
It pinpoints all lies 
Shines light on untruth. 
For recall the pure facts 
As they actually occur 
Lies have no one's back 
In the end only truth 
You'll remember.

Deep paths to woe do they pave
Some wounds are darker than the grave
They might turn the cowardly brave
Alas ! Time doesn't drift them along the wave
As maturity seeped in i realized
Not all people are for life
Wounds can indeed give a lesson
The dilemma , the pain , they do

OH! THE LIBERALS
If freedom of speech means the painful words you just said
I'd rather be in the shed
.
If freedom of power means exploiting people' already dead
I'd rather be in the shed

Nay !
Life is a blessing , No dressing No messing
Sighs
Thee spend it in guessing
.
Nay !
Whatever is around you must cherish
For one day all will perish

I call your name

You are not there

My heart left barren and bare

I have no choice

My tears run dry

For into a void I cry

People who shatter, Greatly matter

A lifeless spirit inflames a living

A deprived child is the most giving

And he decided finally

That he will start tomorrow

On a bright sunday morning

His first spring walk

And he might circumambulate also, ‘been a while’ he thought

And say his prayers by and by...
