Chances

We Take chances for not knowing what is ahead of us,
All we have is fear that surrounds us without any reasons;
We take chances for not knowing what love is about,
All we have is our expectation that keeps us moving ahead;
Trying not to make the same mistake that haunts me every night,
Realizing the emptiness that has left my heart with darkness and pain;
It’s never easy taking every breath without thinking of tomorrow;
All I have is just memories of yesterday that has left me of nothing,
But I have somehow made it through the dark nights of my fears.

Our Mother

OUR MOTHER
We love our Mother unconditionally,
Because she is a mother. 
She is the beginning and ending of our lives,
For all the reasons she has brought us into this world,
Showed us courage, strength, and wisdom,
Influenced our lives with tolerance and respect,
Breaking every rule in the book for our happiness,
And making everything possible to fulfill our dreams,
Because she is a mother, 
For every reason who we are.
I Love You.
Your Son.

Strange Thoughts

Our minds are so consumed in the most unrealistic manner,
that we hardly get to know why our lives are so extravagant.
We forget the very existence surrounding our imagination,
and are disposed to the most pragmatic influence of our behaviour.
We tend to understand every bit of ourselves to the extent,
But unconditionally we have failed our own creation of survival.
Our purpose is not more than our observations and our needs,
whereas we are deeply bound by our own fate and conscience.
It is not possible for us to change every thought that arises in our minds.
I sometimes wonder if there is ever going to be a tomorrow,
But our hopes are no more then what we can ever imagine.
Perhaps it’s more painful when the healing is taking over.

My Moments

Moments of fascination
Sounds of distraction
Feelings of longing
Dreams scattered
Fears of trembling 
Happiness everlasting

Our Conscience

Love is not deceiving, but our thoughts where are minds and our hearts take us to conceive in what we want to see. We are in constant conciliation with our beliefs and in compromising with every temptation we are bound to be with. Our conscience has blinded us of our wisdom and put us into a delusional fact we pretend to live in which we call paradise.

For All the Times

FOR ALL THE TIMES

You want to say so much, but you’re afraid to get hurt again.
You find it hard to explain where to begin, 
All you have is yourself that keeps you 
Protected in your silence and pain.
Too much struggle has left you with so many scares,
That it has become difficult for you to know 
Which one is deeper from the other to measure in life?

You want to say so much, but you’re afraid to get hurt again.
So many sacrifices in life you’ve had to give,
All that you have left is nothing to surrender too, 
 But to believe in what fate has given you in return.
Love was once a dream you thought you had,
But now it has become an empty space 
With darkness all around you.

You want to say so much, but you’re afraid to get hurt again.
You try to pretend to yourself that there’s hope,
But it has become a stranger in your deepest thoughts, 
 And it blinds you from the truth around you.
You shed your fears in tears filled with moments of sadness,
But all your Life has been to you is a big disappointment, 
And still you hold on to your dreams.

You want to say so much, but you’re afraid to get hurt again.
There are so many beautiful moments to share 
Where there is more to life then wondering  alone in the dark,
All you have to do is  disapprear into the wild and look 
For that one dream you have been searching for so long.
Maybe one day God will make your dreams come true,
For all the wonderful things he has created you for.

My Thoughts

Our life's are not complicated, but our social behaviour has made our thoughts more complexed. We tend to be in a state of absence, but our actions have become our very own enemy, and when we thrive to survive the possibilities, all we have is our own thoughts surrounded by delusion.

Missing You

I find love in so many hidden shades of your absence,
My desires have spoken nothing but of your presence,
I crave for every minute of your essence in my heart,
Where there is nothing left but emptiness.

Love has never been so right without your smile,
The way your laugh brings back every thought of you,
I’m tired of feeling lonely without your voice,
Where there is nothing left but emptiness.

Every moment of your breath is missing in the air,
My mind is moving in every direction of the wind,
I miss the times we disagreed over senseless talks,    
Where there is nothing left but emptiness.

Of all the chance I have missed being with you,
Nothing matters more to me then your purpose,
There is something more to love then just feelings,
Where there is nothing left but emptiness.

Unusual Feelings

We sit in loneliness to think about all our fears and problems

We live in sadness to watch and wonder what went wrong 

We laugh in happiness to hide from all the pain inside us

We cry in despair to take away the mistakes we have made

We love in silence to forget what a dream was just once

We repent every moment in darkness to pray for a chance

We forget all that has gone was just there for a reason

We forgive in kindness never knowing what is in return

Alas! What we have achieved is still unknown and a mystery.

Lonely

 Why are we so empty in our minds and are full of joy in are hearts.
What do we do when we wish for so much in life and we never get there.
Where have we gone wrong and what have we lost to be so lonely.
