"The only thing Forever"

It’s so hard,

So hard to explain

The things I have been through

Still caught in some

Nothing I believe is true

What do I want?

Why is it you?

Will it be you forever?

Questions I don’t have any answer to.

Don’t trust me blindly

I fall every time

Will make you fall too...

Deep inside my heart

There are some feelings

All pure and true.

What I really want you to do

Is to embrace those feelings

Care in return for the care I do

Appreciate the time we have together

And when I won’t be there

Forget this never

This part of our life is a blessing

Even if we’ll not be together

I’ll miss you, love you

Smile at our memories

Pray for your goodwill

Relish what we had

Till this life lasts,

You’ll stay with me forever...

"Bird that never leaves"

There’s a bird that never leaves…

She stays around the house

Sometimes on the tree in the front yard

Sometimes on the wall behind

Nobody knows what keeps her here

Is it the house or someone in the house?

Earlier we never fed her anything

Didn’t even give her water

Children used to make her fly away

But she always returned!

Neighbors now talk about her

Disapprove of her presence

They say it’s a spirit!

Of someone connected to the house

It’s like she is not free!

But I feel good,

Good that she is here.

The sound of her chirping,

Fluttering of her feathers on the windows

Like she is happy being around

The contented one!

I believe she likes us.

I even talk to her sometimes now…

She sits on the wall

Calm,

Sleek neck movements as I speak

I sense that she understands

She is not afraid

Leaves after I leave

She is Faithful

And always around

Such a relation!

It’s pure and sound.

I am privileged to have her.

I hope she stays forever!

I need her forever…

"Nothing in her eyes"

Drowned in the depths of silence

Few unsaid words

Rolled down her eyes.

She prayed for a cover

To obscure the darks of her mind

None came to rescue

So she builds up a lie

Since then she has been blamed

She did try to fight

She found different ways

To make it all right

She confided in many

But all in plight.

Then she tried one last round

Which is played blind

Betrayed by the truth

She cursed every bit of that lie...

The one she believed

As showed by all

It’s never gonna be true

Now that she has realized

Unsure of the truth

She lies there with nothing in her eyes...
