Bear Believe Till They Get Death

Bear Believe and Wait till They Get Death
Still stop for a more second,
What you gain of rushes and run,
Leave restlessness stand still on land
You can achieve what heart burn.

Perhaps ,peep in the past some hints
May find,fear of losing fairest hide
That reveal from heart, tears let flow with wind,
Don't interrupt ownself let feelings tide.

To high Heaven take a height of flight,
In middle many monsters you may find,
Make prayer till that not become plight,
Stop whispers of surrounding,loud own mind.

Swans don't step back,don't memory left
Bear believe and wait till they get death.

The temperature of the fate

Fate is a thing such as mould
While you're the material 
And what does life feel?
A melting furnace is either hot 
or cold?

It's hot when you're inside
Being melted and coil
To be the things expected
Which opposed by your soul 

Once you desire to be yourself 
As what you firmly believe 
To create your own spectacular life
Allowing all the dreams to bloom
 
As long as you're your ownself 
The fate will leave you 
To the distant invisible 
Staying obsolete 
 And being cold

Friends

Suddenly  I remember the old time

When I saw the names of my friends on the wall.

There was no one to give umbrella during rain but

you were  to get wet in the rain together 
You never tried to save me from punishment
you gave me courage to not get punishment anymore 
you didn't remove my tears 
you made me strong to not cry.
Fool me was broken 
you guys never tried to sort my heart 
you showed me how to be strong by ownself .

you were with me, you are with me
and you will be with me .

When no one was with me 
you were with me 
not to give false sympathy 
to show me that I was not alone 

one day you maybe not with me anymore but your memory and lesson always will be with me 

Because friendship is immoral .


Premium Member Happiness

Happiness is left to be defined by your ownself
As you know yourself better than anyone else
As you're special and unique
Moreover one man's meat may be another man's  poison
But don't ask for too much 
So that you won't always be disappointed 
As the world is to be shared by all
It needs effort and patience to attain happiness
If you're disappointed at this moment
At least someone else isn't disappointed
And so wait for your turn 
It seems to be your own business 
To work for any happiness
Except any blessings from God
It seems to be your own business 
To value any happiness even it's small
As no one can help you to be happy
If you aren't ever ready and be prepared to be happy
Even how small is the happiness gifted to you

Premium Member A Slave

As shadow
Is the slave of man
Man is the slave of
Time
Work
Pressure
Reputation
Greed
Ambition
Emotion
And his or her ownself
So
Free yourself 
Before the world can free you

She

Life beneath her wings,
eyes full of fire;
Fire of will
into which all the evil disappear.

Willpower in her words,
faith in her soul;
Faith upon ownself that, 
even in pain, she will not mourn.

Smile on her lips
that can make your day;
Day, full of sunlight
but don't try to grab her as prey.

Love full of heart.
She knows how to stay, beside love;
Love, for the one,
whom she has given her life on love's behalf.

Firmness on her face.
She rarely bothers of womanly grace;
Grace will be gone.
But you can't find a woman like her, who is such mind strong.

Songs of Myself

I only know how to be
myself
I can only be me

I only feel inside 
my heart
And yet, its what I hide

I only think of dreams
all the time
And it flows like rough streams

I only see what I see
inside myself
And see myself as me

I can only be
many to all
and all to many

I can only live
life as myself
To have faith and believe

I can only give my soul
to myself
and let it grow old

I only know how to be
myself
I can only be me

To thine ownself
be true,
be true to myself

Quest

Quest

For years long I espoused the bedlam in my beneath 
I quest the solitary 
The more close I endured; the arouse of ignition was more
This is an unacquainted fervour
I never encountered; neither I will surrender 
I owe it to my breathe, my flesh and my wisdom 
And I had no grip to iniquities and itches 
Like how sand slips from hand

The bedlam denned in myself 
If the warmth of love quest the path
Render my longevous throes and miseries 
If the incessant gaze of lover quest the pearl 
Pierce my heart and reign 
If the bravery of combatant quest the combat
History chisel my fearlessness cruor

Is it the hurricane or the tremor; it is uncharted to me
And the tempest in my core,
It does keep bellowing 
I don't the know the word 
I am not adept in scripting it either 
I must apologize for disturbing and disbalancing my vehemence 
And awakening the equilibrium 
Endowing justice to my robust turmoil 
Whether it is a bedlam or a quest...

To Be God Is Not Easy 2

Neither need
         Nor  greed
         But for your's entertain and love
         Force me to make myself busy
        To be God is not easy. 

         
        In the woods
        Regular running and chasing
        Either for life or lunch
        But who would die, who would be survive   
       Justify self decision is not easy 
        To be God is not easy.

Differences are yours, not mine
Different prayers are same for Divine
But ridiculously , you have same needs 
Countless wishes I have to bless
To make your life easy
To be God is not easy.

All earthly things which you offer
Heaps of nothings at so called places 
Don't  make fool thyself
Believe Father is present everywhere Ownself
Work to make 
Your life happy and easy
To be God is not easy.

If I Were You

If I were you
 And you were me
 i knew your sorrows 
 And you felt pains of me.

 All roots of misunderstanding 
 Live in the heart of  unknowns 
 We  don't know well about each other 
 So misconceptions lead the differences. 

  If  elders were youngsters 
  And youngsters were elders 
  They knew each other's needs 
 Thus disputes never sprout their seeds. 

All you wanted to know about me
Same i wanted to know about you 
if you want war and disputes should dwell in hell 
then  we shouldn't afraid to make World well. 

  If some day a miracle happens 
  All men and women change their gender 
  They can feel needs of each other 
  Thus Respect and dignity hurt never. 

 If humans were Nature 
 And nature were humans 
 Think what we get from Nature 
 And what we return holy Nature 

 What is the worst in the world?
 Consider ownself merely right in the World. 
 If all persons are right 
 Then how deadly weapons get birth to fight.

Contest of Most Beautiful Person

As i heard about the contest
 'The most beautiful person'
  i packed my luggage hurriedly
  and ran in search of that lucky person.

  First of all i recalled my teacher
  leisure time creation of the God
  if eye may judge the winner was she.
  But me and my friends were bitten
  several times ,without beautiful heart
  how can  winner may be she.

  Next i saw a body builder
  well balanced muscles and bones
  But he was soon lost the contest
  because he was made 
  for ownself not for others.

   All Physical beauty killed by time
  so smart personalities lost charm
  to win the most beautiful person
  contest without more harm.

  After that i saw half naked boy
  sharing his alms with stray dog
  unwilling i followed him
  to declare the most beautiful
  but regret he kicked the same dog
  when it followed him in love.

  So the search for most beautiful person
  is still on if anyone meet a person
  who have the beautiful heart
  at universal place and universal time
  Give regard ,the title and salaam
  on behalf of me and mankind.

Premium Member Reference

Someone has said
That the saved.
Shall just barely make it in
Now just where does this put the sinners
We can't judge them
I'd better watch my ownself
Repented we're all winners
Freed from our sins
God said it
As we pray

Zamzam Beckons Roy

The perfume enthralled me
The smile thrilled me to core
The promising beauty behold
Roy i do love the fine things 

The curve of her lithe back
Them chariots of fire racing
Through the creek of zamzam
Roy i savor the fine things

Sermons of long now forgotten
Teachers where did they wrong
Holly molly tantalizing peakers
Roy am now losing my ownself

Redress in bits of time
Regression for dunders
Flowing springs of zamzam
Roy the touch of linen

The Sign of Love and Pain

Flower is sign of love, purity, beauty
What is human for?
The sign of pain
In every line, every line,

I have seen her and him,
Leaders and subordinators
Each expresses ownself
No one comes in others help .......
